Seventy families related to 80 political prisoners now in the fiftieth day of “fasting unto death" at the Surafend concentration camp are carrying on a hunger strike. In sympathy at the Great Synagogue in Tel Aviv, Chief Rabbi Hertzog has sent a memorial to the British authorities claiming the release of 16 inmates of Surafend, who, it is alleged, have been detained for six months without trial under emergency regulations.' but still are not released though they have served their first sentences.
