Reviewing the political situation in the Middle Easy, Anthony Eden, addressing a Conservable Party conference in Wales, said today that he fully supports the Bernadotte proposals for settling the Palestine dispute.
(Reporting on the details of Eden’s statement Reuters quoted him as stating: “The opposition hoped that a settlement on the lines proposed by Count Folke Bernadotte might lead to stability and ultimately to friendship between Jewish and Arab lands. Then the Arab lands, working in harmony with other Eastern states and with the Jewish people in their pert of Palestine, with the material support of Britain and the United States, could be built up into another great area of security for the nations and of economic prosperity for their peoples.”)
