The U.N. General Committee, by a vote of 11-2, today recommended Israeli application for membership in the world body be referred to the Ad Hoc Political Committee. Should the General Assembly approve this recommendation, debate on the Israeli application can begin Monday.

An Israeli spokesman today issued a statement here categorically denying a report from Lausanne published in a New York newspaper that Israel flatly refused to readmit Arab refugees.
