The Canadian delegation to the forthcoming U.N. session on Palestine has been urged by a Jewish delegation to press for fulfillment by Britain of the international obligations it assumed under the Mandate and to support Jewish immigration and settlement.
The delegation, which was headed by Moshe Shertok for the Jewish Agency, Samuel J. Zacks, president of the United Zionist Council of Canada and Sir Ellsworth Flavelle, chairman of the Canadian Palestine Committee, saw Acting Prime Minister Louis S. Laurent, who is Canada’s Foreign Secretary, and three other Cabinet ministers.
