The Anglo-American Inquiry Committee will hear the chief delegates of the five Arab nations represented at the General Assembly of the UNO – Egypt, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Syria and Lebanon – in London, probably on Friday morning, it was reported today by Routers, a British news agency.
“According to informed political quarters,” the report said, “the Arab delegates will take up with the committee various aspects of the Palestine problem on which they are anxious to establish their viewpoint at the earliest possible moment.
“The delegations may be expected to give Arab reaction to the Palestine situation as they see it now. They are also expected to make the point that there should be cessation of all Jewish immigration until the commission has completed its deliberations. The Arab view that Palestine has been and should remain an exclusively Arab state is also expected to be reaffirmed.”
