Truce Extension Sought as Palestine Proposal Drafted
Britain drafted a United Nations security council appeal urging Jews and Arabs to extend the Palestine truce. No expiration date was set, leaving final decisions to Count Bernadotte in consultation with the parties. The move would replace the current four week cease fire due to expire Friday. Soviet spokesman Gromyko warned the extension must be viewed with Bernadotte’s Middle East actions andUN partition decisions, accusing Bernadotte of overstepping powers.
