Statements and Memoranda as presented by The Jewish Agency for Palestine.
Presentation of the Jewish case was by Dr. Abba Hillel Silver who spoke on 2 October, and by Dr. Chaim Weizmann, former President of the World Zionist Organisation, who spoke on 18 October, 1947.
Dr. Silver stated that the Jewish Agency greatly appreciated the conscientious labours and good faith of the United Nations Special Committee on Palestine, which had been made up of the representatives of neutral nations. Its efforts to arrive at a morally justifiable and politically sound solution had found expression in a comprehensive and impressive document.
He recalled that the Jewish Agency had regarded it as an inescapable obligation to co-operate to the fullest extent with the United Nations and had made available to the Special Committee on request all possible information and suggestions. The Arab Higher Committee, on the other hand, as the report indicated, in spite of an appeal by radio and a letter from the Special Committee, had maintained its decision to abstain from any collaboration.
4to, original printed wrappers, browned, with some closed tears to spine and back cover; clean crisp pages. 686 pp.
