    Palestine
    In order to give refuge to millions of distressed Jewish men, women and children driven from their homes by tyranny, we call for the opening of Palestine to their unrestricted immigration and land ownership, so that
    in accordance with the full intent and purpose of the Balfour
    Declaration of 1917 and the Resolution of a Republican Congress in 1922, Palestine may be constituted as a free and democratic Commonwealth. We
    condemn the failure of the President to insist that the mandatory of
    Palestine carry out the provision of the Balfour Declaration and of the
    mandate while he pretends to support them.
