A pan-Arab conference, to which Jewish representatives from Palestine will be invited, will take place in Egypt within the next six weeks, it was stated today in Cairo by the Iraqi Premier, Nuri es Said Pasha, upon arriving there from Palestine.

The premier of Iraq disclosed that during his stay in Palestine he attempted to bring together the various Arab groups on a united policy which would make it possible not only for Palestine Arabs to send a delegation to the forthcoming conference, but which would also enable Palestine Jews to be represented there. “I consider a delegation of Palestine Arabs, as well as Jewish representation, at the forthcoming conference in Cairo as inevitable,” Nuri Pasha said.
