The June session of the Permanent Mandates Commission of the League of Nations, reviewing the report submitted to it by the mandatory powers on conditions prevailing in the countries under mandate, will this time have no complaints from the Palestine Arabs to deal with.
For the first time since the mandates commission has met no Arab petition was received. A petition was submitted by the Orthodox Agudath Israel setting forth its complaints.
The Palestine government will be represented at the Commission’s sessions by Col. George S. Symes, former Civil Secretary of the Palestine government. Miss Valendine Dannoving of Norway was appointed member of the Mandates Commission, representing Norway.
