The Security Council met here briefly today for further consideration of the mutual Syrian and Israeli charges of aggression, arising from the November 13 clash on Israel’s northern frontier, and adjourned without action pending recall by the December president of the Council, Ambassador Fernando Crtiz-Sanz, of Bolivia, Today’s session was the fourth on this issue.
Addresses evidently aimed at conciliation of the latest Syrian-Israeli flare-up were delivered by two more of the Western representatives on the Council, Roger Seydoux, of France, and Sivert A. Nielson, of Norway, as well as by Chun-Ming Chang, of China. They seemed to follow the policy enunciated at last Friday’s Council session on this issue by Britain’s new Labor Government spokesman here, Lord Caradon, who had told the Council that “conciliation, not recrimination” should guide its policy.
