Jewish Agency Stands Firm in Push for Hearings before Special Session
The Jewish Agency, the sole body named in the terms of the mandate, is determined to resist any move short of appearing before a full 35-natin body. It insists on its original role to request and instruct an inquiry commission, while the British plan would offer Jewish hearings before the commissions. No official Russian position is known, but the Soviet voting partner Poland has urged full Jewish participation. A delegation official said the Russians will bait the British and predicted Andrei A. Gromyko will decide his stance as events unfold.
