The role that America will play in the Middle East after the war – especially the attitude it will adopt on the question of conflicting Arab-Jewish claims in Palestine – was one of the major points discussed by the premiers of Iraq and Egypt, who have just finished a series of six talks here.
In a joint announcement released here, the two premiers also disclosed that a Pan-Arab Congress will shortly be convened, probably in Cairo, to discuss the possibility of an Arab Federation and also Arab representation at the peace conference.
