“The publication locally of the re-drafted text of the proposed Constitution has been received with signs of indignation on the part of the Arab population, without distinction of religion or political creed.”

Context added by this archive

First of three consecutive years in which the Times prints Palestinian Arabs organizing: bitter in 1922, demanding in 1923, protesting in 1924. Note the phrase without distinction of religion or political creed — Muslim and Christian Palestinians, acting together, in 1922.
