U N Admits Failure on Arab Jewish Row
Paris reports the three nation conciliation commission has failed to bridge Arab Israeli differences since Aug. 10. It notified Israel and Arab governments of the deadlock and will report its failure to the General Assembly, which may liquidate or sustain the body. The main obstacle remains the fate of thousands of Arab refugees from 1948. The Arabs demand settlement before other issues, while Israel wants refugee questions tied to a broader peace treaty.
