"Judging by the first six months of the year, our earlier estimates of a total of 3,000,000 tourists will probably be justified,” Chamson said.

U.S. POSITION ON ISSUES CONFRONTING ASSEMBLY
Lake Success, September 18.
The American Ambassador at large, Dr. Philip Jessup, today made public the official United States position on top issues facing the United Na- tions General Assembly and particularly emphasised problems in Asia. Dr. Jessup urged the Assembly, which opens on Tuesday, to seek a solution to African as well as Asiatic problems, through constructive measures like President Truman's bold new programme" of technical aid.
In a thinly-cloaked criticism of Soviet tactics, Dr. Jessup warned that efforts to provoke the people of Asia and Africa to violent up- risings may absorb their energies for a time, but can never solve their problems.
Then, the professor-turned-di- plomat, who has been conducting an intensive review of American Far East policy, gave an Item by United of the item summary States stand on key matters on the packed Assembly docket.
He revealed that the American delegation would push for an in- dependent Libya in the relatively near future, go-slow polley on Palestine, full approval of the United Nations technical proposed
