United Nations Palestine Committee backs partition and two year union plan
The UN Palestine Committee urged partition of the Holy Land and creation of an economic union including an Arab and a Jewish state with Jerusalem as an autonomous city. Immigrants would enter during a two year transition starting tomorrow, with Britain guiding administration and 5,000 monthly Jewish arrivals if the period extends. Arab leaders criticized the plan as impractical and urged independent Arab Palestine.

Arab League urges immediate steps on Palestine and Jewish distress
The seven state Arab League recommends ending Britain's 25 year mandate in Palestine at the soonest practicable date and granting independence. It calls for protecting holy places access rights, and urges UN Assembly to pursue an international plan to address the 250000 distressed European Jews in exchange centers as an urgent matter. The report goes to 55 member countries for study before the assembly meets. The assembly can only recommend isolation and cannot compel nations to accept its decisions.
