"Early Withdrawal "

TERMINATION OF MANDATE

Lake Success, Sept. 26.-Outlining Britain's policy towards Palestine in the United Nations Palestine Committee today, Mr Arthur Creech Jones, the Colonial Secretary, said that the British Government would agree to the termination of the Palestine mandate. He said that the British Government announced, "with all solemnity” that, in ' the absence of a settlement, they had decided that they must plan for an early withdrawal of all British forces and the British adminis- tration from Palestino.

The British Government, Mr. Creech Jones declared, was ready to enforec any plan which was acceptable to the Arabs and the Jews, but if the United Nations recommended a policy which was not acceptable to the Jews and the Arabs, Britain would not feel able to implement it and it would become necessary to provide some alternative authority.
