The deliberations of the international Wailing Wall Commission which investigated the Moslem and Jewish claims to the ancient shrine have been concluded, the Jewish Telegraphic Agency learns. Unless something unforeseen occurs the report of the Commission should be in the hands of the British government sometime this month.

The report is to be kept secret until it is submitted to the British government for forwarding to the League of Nations. The Commission has been meeting in secret in the offices of the Swedish foreign office where it has been formulating its conclusions after considering the vast material and hearing many views.

The Commission, which consists of three members, was appointed by the British government with the consent of the League of Nations.
