The Arab League says it failed to settle the Lebanon and United Arab Republic dispute after Lebanon rejected a compromise. A proposed resolution would have sent a fact finding mission to Lebanon and urged Lebanon to withdraw its U.N. complaint while asking the U.A.R. to refrain from actions stirring Arab friction. The U.N. Security Council now faces the issue as Lebanon and other delegations dispute the league's stance.
