UN TO Discuss Palestine
Lake Success, November 12.
The question of Palestine will be taken up in the U.N., probably late next week, á diplomatic source said today.
Debate in the 59-nation special Committee will centre on propó- sak for a permanent international regime for Jerusalem and the question of protecting Palestine's Holy places.
Delegates will consider a report of the UN. Palestine Conciliation Commission recommending the Internationalisation of the Holy City. Arab and Israeli spokesmen here have voiced opposition to this plan.
Israel is opposed to the Con ciliation Commission; plan for complete internationalisation of the Jerusalem area but has pro- claimed support of any inter- national plan that would guarantee free access to the holy places, an Iradi spokesman said..
Another plan would divide Jerusalem into two elties, one Jewish and one Arab. Under such a partition, modem Jerusalem, which is now in Israeli hands, would be integrated with the State of Israel The did walled city: held by the forces of Hashemite Jordan would become part of the Arab state which will comprise non-Israeli Palestine.
Along with the Jerusaleri ques tion the Committee will debate the issue of protecting the holy places and rendering free access to them by all faiths.-Associated Press
