United Nations sources said today that the formal submission of the Palestine issue by British might take place tomorrow, if the assent of France, the Soviet Union and China to a special session of the U.N. Assembly has been obtained by then. The British decided on Saturday to consult the other members of the Big Five, after U.S. approval had been secured.
(In London, a Foreign Office spokesman confirmed that Britain would not make any specific recommendations to the special assembly nor to the next regular meeting ## September. Queried about Britain’s plans at the September session, he stated that the government still intends to give a record of its stewardship in Palestine and ## the Assembly decide on further action. He concluded that Britain hopes that the special session will meet in May, but that it depends on various technical problems.)
