If the people on the spot were drifting toward the Arab side, don’t you think it might have been because direct observation of the problems as they stood suggested that the Arabs had legitimate grievances?

Or that the Arabs were more likely to create mayhem, and thus needed appeasing more. Practically speaking, it was much easier to stop Jewish immigration than Arab immigration, so that's what they did. During the 20s and 30s the British didn't even try to count Arab immigration.
