Speech #790136367

As the resolution stands. our good offices are to be used. with Britain only. toward three ends. The first of them is set forth by the words "that Palestine shall be opened for free entry. of Jews into that country to the maximum of its agricultural and economic potentialities." To me those words seem to mean that the full. agricultural and industrial potential of Palestine is to be absorbed by the addition of Jews and of Jews alone. Those words do not say that there can be no further Arab immigration into Palestine. but it is difficult to see that those words are intended to mean anything other than just that. Moreover. that is.what the Arabs are likely to think that the Senate means as the end in view. . Any effort by the mandatory power to that end will most likely be strongly opposed by the Arabs.
