Summary
The Haifa Arab labour society which Mansour, in 1937, names with the Arab Labour Federation in Jaffa as one of the two most developed beginnings towards an organisation of labour in Palestine (The Arab Worker under the Palestine Mandate, PDF p.3).
Details
- Mansour states that the Palestine Arab Workers Society in Haifa and the Arab Labour Federation in Jaffa are the most developed of the various beginnings towards an organisation of labour in Palestine; the organisation is rudimentary, but both societies possess branches throughout the country (The Arab Worker under the Palestine Mandate, PDF p.3).
- The excerpts give no membership figure, officers or actions for the Haifa society; the membership of about 7,000, the headquarters and the public meetings Mansour describes in the same passage belong to the Jaffa federation (PDF p.3).
