\n

The Chairman, Dr Robert V. Evatt (Australia) called the Committee to order at 11.15 a.m. and immediately turned to the task of the composition of the three Sub-Committees whose creation was approved at yesterday’s meeting.<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

The Committee decided to entrust the task of conciliation not to a formal Sub-Committee but to the Chairman, Dr. Herbert V. Evatt (Australia), the Vice-Chairman, Prince Subhasvasti Svastivat (Siam) and the Rapporteur Mr. Thor Thers (Iceland) who would be designated as “The Conciliators.<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

The Committee rejected by 32 votes to 6, with 10 abstentions, a Soviet proposal that all eleven members of the Security Council be included, together with some other delegates, in the Sub-Committee which is to study the Majority Plan of the ±¬ÁÏÍøSCOP 'Report.<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

The Committee then authorized the Chairman, by 40 votes to 6, with 4 abstentions, to appoint representatives on this Sub-Committee and also on the Sub-Committee which is to study the Iraqi, Saudi Arabian and Syrian proposal for the establishment of an independent unitary Palestine.<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

The Committee further decided that the work of these two Sub-Committees <\/span>should be<\/a> completed by 29 October, with the possibility of an extension of this time limit<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n

\n

Dr. Evatt said that the US and US-Swedish proposals, plus those of Guatemala and Uruguay regarding the majority report would come before Sub-Committee I (on the Majority Report).<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

The El Salvador and Netherlands proposals, he said, on conciliation would be handled by the conciliating group.<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

The Syrian proposal, together with those offered to the General assembly by Saudi Arabia and Iraq, would be handled key Sub-Committee 2.<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

Since proposals dealing with displaced persons and refugees, along with the Yugoslav proposal to have the Cyprus [Missed]nees immediately allowed into Palestine, and the Uruguay proposal for the immediate admission of 30,000 Jewish children and pregnant women were within the competence of both Sub-Committees, they would, he said, be dealt with after the Sub-Committees’ reports.<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

The Egyptian, Syrian and Iraq proposals questioning the legality of certain matters, as well as the question of asking for a decision by the International Court of Justice, said Dr. Evatt, should wait for the Sub-Committees’ findings.<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

The Lebanese proposal against illegal immigration into Palestine and assistance rendered to the immigration would probably be dealt with in sub-committees and included in their reports.<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

The Committee decided by 19 votes to 7, with 10 abstentions, not to give immediate consideration to a proposal of Mr. Gonzalez Fernandez (Colombia) for the establishment of a Sub-Committee to study the parts of the ±¬ÁÏÍøSCOP Report relating to the problem of Jewish displaced persons in Europe and to prepare proposals as to the manner in which Members of the ±¬ÁÏÍø could contribute to the solution of that problem.<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

The meeting adjourned and the date of its next meeting is to be announced. <\/p><\/div>\n
