INSIDE STOBY,..
The full story of Habbl Bar¬ uch Korff, arrestea by the French police on the charge of preparing to bomb London, has never been told...Here are a few inside highlights,. .Korff has no connection wilh the Stem group. ..He Is extremely vain, a fellow who can best be de¬ scribed as a publicity hound... Scotland Yard did not merely use. Gilbert, the American air pilot (who, incidentally i,s a Jew) after he had contacted Korff.. Gilbert probably worked as a British agent right from the start, and it was he who. In his capacity as agent provocateuT, set the trap for Korff..,The ar¬ rest was timed to counteract the bad publicity Britain expected to—and did—receive in connec¬ tion with its Hitlerite policy in the Exodus case...In other words, Britain wanted to impress public opinion with the terrorist character of those who are en¬ gaged in illegal Immigration to Palestine.. .And wanted to make certain that French public opin¬ ion would not speak up for the Exodus refugees.. Korff Is mere¬ ly a very stupid fellow who made, himself a perfect victim by shouting from ^the housetops about his scheme for parachut¬ ing refugees Into Palestlna... Too bad the Jewish cause has to suffer because there are no ways ot restraining the crack¬ pots...

The Zionist leader, however, was careful to Indicate that it is not clear from the London re¬ ports whether the acceptance by the British Cabinet is tied to conditions, and pointed out that "everything will depend upon the nature of such condltioni?." He added that if true, the de¬ cision- of the Cabinet affords an opportunity for all Big Five i'owers to act in unison to solve the i^alestine problem once and for all. Dr. Neumann spoke at the first meeting of the recently- elected national Zionist Admin¬ istrative Council, the ruling par-' liamentary body of the Zionist Organization of America be¬ tween conventions.
He said that "there are Indi¬ cations which warrant the be¬ lief that a substantial majority of the United-Nations would favor the early settlement of an. independent Jewish State in Pal¬ estine and the immediate trans¬ fer of all displaced and dis¬ tressed Jews who wish to go there. Moreover, In view of this crystallization of world oplirion which has taken place, if may not be too much to hope that even the British Qtrverpnient may be led, at long last, to aban¬ don a position which has become morally and politically untena¬ ble, by bowing gracefully to the Judgment of mankind."
