Assassins Crifical of British Policy in Palestine Blamed in Killing of Far East Envoy in Cairo

_ CAIRO, Nov. 7 (U. P.)—Jewish extremists critical of Britain's policy in Palestine were blamed today for the assassination of Lord Moyne, British resident minister to the Middle East. (Prime Minister Churchill told commons in London that the British government had “as yet received no official information which fixes authorship of the crime or gives a clue to its motive.” He added that “very searching inquiries will be made into the origin and

association of these strangers (the|

assassins). to Egypt.” Moyne died at a British military hospital at 6:49 p. m. yesterday, several hours after two youths shot him in the neck, chest and abdomen as he stepped into his automobile in front of his home in Cairo.

Won't Answer Questions The two assailants were mobbed,

stripped maked and nearly lynched |

by enraged crowds at the scene. Rescued by police, they suddenly refused to answer questions put to them by high British and Egyptian officials. . Gen. Sir Bernard Paget, British commander in the Middle East, referred to them as “Jewish assassins,” in a brief statement eulogizing Moyne as a “great public servant.” Paget's comment . indicated the youths were members of the Sternist group which has declared

28-year-old Dr. Jones received the Adolph Lomb medal, awarded every two years for outstanding accomplishment in the field of optics by the Optical Society of America. Speeds Up Work The new system for calculating optical systems is reported by Dr. Jones to be two to three times faster than other methods for securing the necessary information needed for

LONDON, Nov. T (U. P) ~The London Times said today in an editorial on the United States election that President Roosevelt showed “sound political sense” in withholding the. heaviest fire until the closing stages of the. campaign. That gave Mr. Roosevelt the “advantage of freshness and of arguing his case at a time when the interest was at fever pitch,” the Times said, The editorial sald Governor Thomas E. Dewey might pick up votes among foreign minority groups by his criticism of Mr. Roosevelt's policies toward Poland, Russia and Italy, “but it still. is to be seen whether he has been successful in substantiating his claim to the in~ dependent. vote.” “One practical need is that the next President should have the house of representatives of his own political allegiance if friction is to be kept within bounds,” the Times
