AMERICAN ZIONISTS WELCOME U.S. VIEW ON ARAB-ISRAEL DEBATE

The position taken by the United States in the Security Council in calling for a full review of Arab-Israel relations was welcomed this week-end by the American Zionist Council for Public Affairs.

In a statement by Louis Lipsky, chairman of the group, the council said it welcomed “the position taken by Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge for the United States delegation at the Security Council calling for a review of the entire Arab-Israel conflict.

“We are glad that the other Western nations concur in that position. It would be pointless to have a discussion of isolated incidents, charges and counter-charges. What is needed is to bring Israel and the Arab states together to secure a relaxation of the mounting strain and to strengthen the existing United Nations armistice agreements leading to the achievement of peace as soon as possible.”
