i (AP)—President Truman has
• sent a message tu King Ibn
| Saud of Saudi Arabia reiter-
ating his Iveiief that steps
should be taken to insure the
immediate substantial immi-
• gration of refugee Jews into
Palestine.
He told the Arab leader that he
could not agree with the latter#
statement that there wu inc&n-
rliUncy In the American position.
Replying to a letter received from
Ibn Saud. October 15. the President
wrote
"With regard to the possibility
envisaged by your majesty that
' force and violence may be used by
Jews In aggression schemes against
the neighboring Arab countries, I
can assure you that this govern-
[ ment stands opposed to aggression
| of any kind or to the employment
[ of terrorism for political purposes.
I may add. moreover, tiiat. I am
[ conveuced that responsible Jewish
[ leaders dn not contemplate a police
- of aggression against the Arab
countrlec adjacent to Palestine."
The President said be still ad-
hered to the belief, "widely shared
by the people of this country," that
nothing would contribute more ef-
fectively to the alleviation of the
plight of homeless Jews "than the
authorisation of the Immediate
entry of at least 100,000 of them to
i Palestine.’*
1 In a letter released by the White
I House he reminded the Arab lead-
er that no decision has been msde
on thir proposal which he submit-
ted originally to Prime Minister
Attlee of Great Britain more than
a vear ago.
In, the interim, he said, "it is only
natural" that thio government
slvould favor "at this time the entry
into Palestine of considerable num-
berr. of displaced Jews in Europe '*
Opea U. 8. ©stas
The President reiterated a pre-
vious view that a concerted enert
should be made "to open the gates
of other lands, including the United
States, to those unfortunate per-
sons.”
He added that he is prepared to
ask Congress for special legislation
"admitting to this country addi-
tional numbers of these persons,
over and above the immigration
quotas fixed by our laws."
At the same time, the United
States is working with other gov-
ernments toward settlement of other
refugees in different countries out-
side Europe, the President wrote.
'I cannot agree with your majesty
that my statement of Oct. 4 is in
any way inconsistent with the posi-
tion taken in the statement Issued
on my behalf on Aug. 16," the
President wrote. "In the latter state-
