Restor e Quiet In Tel Aviv
British authorities hardened measures to stop illegal migration into Palestine as Tel Aviv reels from two days of violence that left more than 100 casualties and about 800000 dollars in property damage. Curfews and armored patrols were in force as hundreds were arrested. leaders like Isaac Ben Tsevi condemned the riots, while editorials in the Palestine Post urged responsibility. The British plan to lift the curfew soon and resume normality was offset by new emergency regulations granting authorities power to arrest suspected illegal migrants and inspect ships and aircraft.
