THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, BRITON BIDS U. S GUIDE PALESTINE Liberal Proposes England | between Arabs and Jews was side- tracked in the House of Commons in a compromise move after long and bitter debate. A delay which would permit further study of the plan before final parlia= mentary action, submitting it mean- while to the League of Nations, was decided upon in a rising vote by the chamber. It drew general support of the House The number of those in faver of the delay was so great that no count was taken. The government sought forthright parliamentary approval of its scheme but opposition to the partition brought a compromise. The compromise amendment which brought the delay provided that the | partition recommendations be laid be- fore the League “with a view to enabl- | Ing his majesty’s government, after adequate inquiry, to present to Par- Hand Over Mandate.

The government’s spokesman, the colonial secretary, argued that the proposal was the only solution that would recognize “interests of Moslem, Jew and Christian.” Large gallery crowds watched the cross-fire argument. Some Laborites | asserted the partition would give Italy a foothold in the Holy Land “The guns which have been sent to the Arabs by Mussolini to fight the Jews might be sent in the future to fight some one else,” declared Laborite D. Frankel The debate also brought disclosure ib\' Ormsby-Gore that Lord Arthur | James Balfour was not the author of | the “Balfour declaration” of 1917 | which promised Jews a national home | in Palestine.
