This 20 page newspaper has a nice banner headline on the front page: "ARAB OUTBREAKS IN PALESTINE SPREAD" with subheads. (see)

Other news of the day. Light browning with some binding slits, otherwise in good condition.

wikipedia notes: The 1929 Palestine riots (also known as the Western Wall Uprising or the Buraq Uprising) refers to a series of demonstrations and riots in late August 1929 when a long-running dispute between Muslims and Jews over access to the Western Wall in Jerusalem escalated into violence. During the week of riots, at least 116 Arabs and 133 Jews were killed and 339 wounded.
