The Jews in Palestine and the Jews who had witnessed the massacre of their.kin and who had themselves survived. reviewed the record of the Labor Party and its stated. and restated. policy on Palestine. and were jubilant. Surely now deliverance was at hand. In 1940 the Labor Party conference declared: That in order to remove the root cause of Jewish suffering and to insure the existence and free development of the Jewish people. international assistance should be given for the continued growth of the Jewish national home in Palestine by immigration and settlement. The London conference of 1942 reaffirmed "its determination that in the new international order after the war Jews shall enjoy civil. religious. and economic equality with all other citizens. and that international assistance shall be given to promote by immigration and settlement the Jewish national home in Palestine." The Labor Party conference of 1943 stated in its resolution: That victory must insure for the Jews full civil. political. economic equality. and their national rights. It reaffirms the traditional policy of the British Labor Party in favor of building Palestine as the Jewish national home. In 1944 the Palestine problem formed a special chapter in the NXX document known as the International Postwar Settlement. proposed by the national executive and introduced by the present Prime Minister.
