THREE WORKING GROUPS CONSIDER ARAB PROPOSALS AND LEGAL ASPECTS OF PALESTINIAN QUESTION

Sub-Committee II of the Ad Hoc Committee on Palestine met this morning privately in its three working groups, under the Chairmanship of Mr. A. Gonzalez-Fernandez (Colombia).

The groups took up, respectively, matters dealing with Jewish displaced persons, questions of legality in regard to the Palestine question and the proposals of Iraq, Saudi Arabia and Syria for a unitary Arab State in Palestine.

When the groups have worked out their recommendations and specific proposals they will be submitted to the full Sub-Committee, which, upon approval, will incorporate them into its report.

The Sub-Committee will meet again this afternoon in private working groups.
