There is hardly a question more laden with myths than the recent history of Palestine. This is true not only of the post-World War II era, but even more of the inter-war years. However, the opening to public perusal of the British government's records of the 1930's has enabled students to examine the facts and to attempt to expose certain false notions about British policy in Palestine. The creation of notions and myths is a simple matter; their refutation involves painstaking and detailed study of people, actions and policies. - Introductory paragraph. Sidney Webb, 1st Baron Passfield (Lord Passfield) served as Secretary of State for the Colonies in the Labour Government from 7 June 1929 to 24 August 1931. Between 23 and 29 August 1929 there were riots in Palestine, by then a British Protectorate, resulting in serious loss of life. As Colonial Secretary he issued the Passfield White Paper which revised the government's policy in Palestine
