ISRAEL TURNS DOWN ARABIAN PEACE PLAN Palestine settlement conditions rejected

Tol-Aviv, April 13.

Israel today rejected the condition set last night by seven Arab Statos for a final. settlement in Palestine-that the 1947 United Nations partition plan should be the basis of discus- sions.

The Arab States, who invaded Palestine two years ago to prevent the creation of a Jewish State there, set the condition in accepting a United Nations plan to set up joint Arab-Jewish committees to discuss the settlement.

Meeting in Cairo as the Political Committee of the Arab League, they stipulated that Israel accept in advance the decisions of the United Nations on Palestine, includ- Ing the 1947 partition fixing Arab and Jewish borders, as the basis for discussion.

The Arab States also made the condition that the Conciliation Commission complete its tusk be- Nations fore the next United General Assembly so as to pre- sent its report then.

Within 24 hours of the Arab League's decision the Israel) Gov. ernment today published the text of a memorandum to the Pales tine Conciliation Commission in which israel asked the *Com- nission to declare the Arab States responsible for the failure of its work. The memorandum was sent
