QUIT PALESTINE ?
Sta,—We are quitting India because neither side wants us. Why not quit Palestine where neither side wants us? The League of Nations invited us to go there to found a National Home for the Jews. We have succeded so well that the Jews have raised a formidable army to fight us, as the Arabs fought us before. The League of Nations is dead and we are free to do as we like. To save the lives of British soldiers we could proclaim that within one month all British officials would be withdrawn and all British troops within two months, except from Haifa, which we should keep as a small return for our expenditure. We should not enter into negotiations with anyone, and any state of chaos would not be as bad as the state left behind by the Turks in 1918.—Yours
obediently, F. H. ROACH. Toft Newton Rectory, Market Rasen, Lincolnshire.
