UNO SESSION MAY END SOON: “LITTLE WILL BE ACHIEVED”
NEW YORK, April 23
The United Nations General Assembly is expected to finish its session in about a fortnight, but it seems that little will be achieved. Observers doubt whether the session will be able to settle the fate of the former Italian colonies. Most probably a special commission will be appointed to investigate the situation on the spot, and report to the fourth Assembly in September. It is now virtually certain, that the Assembly, will grant Spain the right to join various United Nations specialised agencies, but it is doubtful whether a majority will be found in favour of renewing ambassadorial relations with General Franco. Little more than a reaffirmation of the Assembly’s appeal to South Africa and India to settle their differences by conciliation is expected from this session. - . . • • , A movement is growing among the delegations to postpone the admission of Israel into the United Nations until September and to avait more concrete guarantees from Israel on the internationalisation of Jerusalem and the fate of 800,000 Arab refugees.
