The Balfour Declaration has been endorsed by every President of the United States from that time to this. It was endorsed by the British Government. of course. and it was endorsed by the Mandate Commission of the League of Nations. and when the socalled white paper was promulgated in 1939. that document was unanimously rejected by the Mandate Commission of the League of Nations. It has always been my understanding that the Balfour Declaration contemplated that immigration should be allowed into Palestine. looking forward to a time when the Jews would be a majority of the people. and when they should become a majority of the people. there was to be an independent commonwealth. That did not mean that everyone else was to be driven out.
