Transcribed from the clipping

“About 40 representative Jewish residents of Atlantic City gathered at Kornblau’s Restaurant yesterday and unanimously resolved to support the movement for creation of a Jewish Army of Stateless and Palestinian Jews… It was explained by Biron that it is not the purpose to seek to enroll Jewish nationals of either this country or any of the United Nations in the proposed Jewish Army… It is proposed to constitute the Jewish Army with Palestinians and the numerous refugee Jews who are at present being interned in various countries for lack of passports and who are Stateless.”

Context added by this archive

Here <i>Palestinians</i> means Jewish residents of Palestine. One of the uses the word chart counts and the section on that word warns about.
