The last remaining members of the secretariat of the United Nations Special Committee on Palestine will leave here tomorrow for ##eva, where the committee is expected to begin meeting early this week to prepare ##ts report and decide whether to visit the displaced persons camps.
Rumors as to the UNSCOP’s eventual decision continue to mount daily. The ##atest is contained in the Cairo daily Al Misri, which usually reflects the Egypt ##an Government’s position. The paper says that the committee will study a plan proposed by Nuri Pasha, the chairman of the Iraqui Senate, which calls for a modified ##rm of federalization along the lines of the Morrison plan.
Al Misri adds that this plan is supported by Musa el Alami, Arab leader, who ## said to believe that it would pave the way for Jewish-Arab rapprochement. Both ##ami and Nuri Pasha are already in Geneva, where they will act as observers for the ##rab League. The League has named the Syrian Minister of Education. Abdel Arslan, and the Lebanese minister in Switzerland, Jamil Makkawi, as its liaison officers with UNSCOP.
An interesting sidelight to the committee’s activities in Palestine is the ##isclosure today that correspondents attached to it filed more than 1,000,000 words of cable copy from here.
