IN PALESTINE
PALESTINE RIOTS
[United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph.—Copyright.]
JERUSALEM, October 30
Giving evidence before the Palestine Commission, Major Saunders (acting Police Commander) admitted that the Government had permitted the Arab demonstration at the Wailing Wall on August Kith. He said that any attempt to prevent it would have resulted in the beginning of a general massacre. He added that, •“Witli the small force of British police and special constables, our command has not the slightest doubt there would not have been one'of us left.”
