New Hebrew Republic Seen in Palestine Amid Partition Fallout
An informed Jewish source says Jews may declare a Hebrew republic in response to U S abandonment of partition. A 32 member provisional council formed by the Jewish agency and Vaad Leumi outlines government, while a Jewish militia claims it can defend sovereignty in major Jewish areas. Arabs reject trusteeship and threaten conflict as more deaths occur. Britain stands by May 15 date to end the mandate and withdraw troops by August 2, with possible trusteeship only if Arab League holds power.
