Jews Ask UN To Void Barriers To Holy Land Entry
The Jewish Agency in Palestine urged the United Nations to remove barriers against establishing a Jewish national home in the Holy Land. Rabbi Abba Hillel Silver of Cleveland, acting as American section chairman, pressed the demand before the General Assembly's political committee. The Arab Higher Committee continued a boycott of the UN while considering the Assembly's invitation. A spokesman for Haj Amin al-Husayni indicated a decision would be sent to Arab delegates in New York soon. The UN secretariat reported a demand from the Communist Party for a full hearing in the Assembly and its committees. The Tel Aviv petition, signed by Meir Wilner, urged hearing for Palestine’s factions to avoid a distorted view of the problem. The deadline for replies by non-Zionist groups was set for a later date.
