Arab Minority in Israel Treated 'Best' in World
Transcribed from the clipping
“The only Middle East country in which Arab women can vote is Israel, Mrs. Harriet L. Kronick of Greenfield told the Springfield Chapter of Hadassah last night at Beth El Temple.”
Context added by this archive
A Hadassah chapter meeting in Springfield, Massachusetts, reported as news about how Palestinians inside Israel live. Seven weeks later, border police shot forty-eight people at Kafr Qasim. The claim in the headline is in quotation marks, which is the paper’s only distance from it.
