As far as the Jews are concerned. it is clear that this scheme is designed to stop all further Jewish development. to keep the Jews restricted to a small pale or ghetto area onethirtieth the size of Palestine. In* fact. this plan means the continuation of the infamous whitepaper regime. which was set up in Palestine in 1939 and which prevented Palestine from offering refuge to the Jews of Europe when they needed that refuge most urgently. To tie up the admission of 100.000 JewIsh refugees to this kind of a scheme would be an unspeakable mockery. For almost 20 years I have had the honor of being a Member of this body. where all of us are striving to serve our country faithfully and to uphold its principles at home and abroad. This British plan.
