The fate of the Arabs who fled from Israeli held territory during the Palestine war has been the major problem deadlocking the conference during the past two months.

Israel's newly-appointed chief delegate, Ruven Shillosh, told the Commission on July 29 that Israel was prepared to discuss large scute repatriation of the refugees | israeli-held territory on condition that any repatriation to Israel
