Emergency Session
Paris, October 16.
Tha Security Council is prepared to go into an omer- gency sossion soon in an effort to save the Palestino truco from collapsing as the result of the renewed full scale fighting in Negov. Discussions are underway between United Nations secretariot officials and the American delega- tion, whose chief delegate, Mr. Warren Austin, is currently the president of the Security Coun- cil.

Says Pavlov Of Mayhew
Paris, October 17.
Russia claimed on Saturday that the British delegate Christopher Mayhow is a liar and a mouth, piece for Fascism in the United Nations. "He has started a cold war in the UN Social Com- mittee," said Russian delegato Alexei Pavlov. Pounding the table and flailing his arms, the black bearded Russion professor replied bitterly to Mr. Mayhew's speech to the Committee the day before. In that speech Mr. Mayhew had ac- cused Russia of denying freedom to millions of workers in a monstrous slave system without parallel in world history.
