Personal and secret.
Your personal and secret telegram No. 14 of 1 January. Since
October 1944, the authorized rate of Jewish immigration into Pales-
tine has been 1500 persons per month. In November 1945, some
1300 persons arrived. Final figures for December are not yet
available.
The quota of 75,000 authorized under the White Paper of
1939 is now virtually exhausted, balance of only a few hundred
remaining, and Arabs have been approached urgently in accordance
with statement made by Bevin in Parliament on 13 November so as to
secure maintenance of immigration at present rate of 1500 persons
per month pending consideration of report of the Anglo-American
Committee.
