Passfield White Paper
The Passfield White Paper, 1930
Introduction
In the wake of the riots of 1929, simultaneously with the Hope-Simpson report and based on its recommendations, the British responded with the Passfield White Paper of 1930. The Passfield White Paper announced an increase in sorely needed Palestine Police forces, though this was not to prove to be sufficient. It noted that British attempts to satisfy Arab desires for self government had ended in failure, a history recounted in the Hope Simpson report as well, and again announced that it would institute Palestinian self-government. Nothing was to come of these efforts, because the Arabs of Palestine refused to participate in a government that included Jews. The government then reached the conclusion that Jewish immigration to Palestine must be limited, as it was affecting the well-being of the Arab population. Since the beginning of the mandate, about 25,000 Jews had immigrated to Palestine by 1930, out of a total population of about a million. This tiny number of Jewish immigrants, was, in the opinion of His Majesty's government, the source of all the woes of Palestine, and therefore it proposed to limit immigration. The Jewish national home home come to a dead end.
