Washington, May 19.
Diplomatic quarters expressed some disquietude today over the fact that practically the whole of the Press and a great section of public opinion are insisting more and more on a prompt solution of the Palestine problem in accordance with the principle of the Balfour Declaration.
The same circles expressed fears that the violent attacks made by certain quarters on the British Government might befog the atmosphere on the eve of the British sovereigns' visit to the United States.
Some rumours even went to the extent of claiming that pressure might be exerted of President Rooevelt to have him take the opportunity of the British monarchs' visit to convey to them "an expression of the American public's deep emotion" as Tegards a solution of the Jewish problem in Palestine.—Havas.
