LIVES OF MODERATES TO BE FULLY SAFEGUARDED SPECIAL TO THE "'N.CDN."

Jerusalem, Nov. 4.

Curfew imposed on the Old City of Jerusalem has been lifted to accommodate the festival of Ramadan, which began last night. During this month Moslems fast during the da: and eat at night.

Reinforcements, it is understood, are being sent to Beisan, in northern Palestine, where the police station was stormed by an Arab gang, who fired a hundred shots in an half-hour attack. A bomb was also thrown, but no damage was done and there were no casualties among the police.

This gang is believed to form part of a large number of armed rebels who entered the country in twos and threes recently and joined forces under Dr. Amin Row: formerly a military doctor in the Iraqi Army—Reuter.
