PAKISTAN ASKS FOR U.N. OBSERVERS FOR HYDERABAD

PARIS. Sept. 27

Sir Mohammad Zafrullah Khan, the Pakistan Foreign Minister, asked the United Nations General Assembly to establish its own system of observers in Hyderabad to obtain authentic and full information about the activities of the Indian armed forces and agents

“It is the duty of the United Nations to do this and also to take effective steps to remove every trace of aggression and all that it has brought in its train and to restore Hyderabad to a position to make its own decision as to the place it desires to occupy am"' the nations of 'he voilcl without any suspicion of pressure, coercion or intimidation from any quarter.” He warned the Assembly on the subject of Palestine that 'at no time and in no circumstances will 'he East ever assimilate or reconcile itself to a sovereign State of Israel. The so-called State of Israel is the culmination of a course of the most insidious kind of aggression carried on and persisted in during the third century contrary to all the principles of the United Nations' Charter, including the principles of equal rights and self-determination of peoples. It is now proposed to stamp this culmination with the approval of the United Nations.”
