FLUSHING MEADOWS, N. Y.
—The fourth session of the
United Nations General Assem-
bly opened Tuesday with the
question of the fate of Jerusa-
lem looming high on the agenda.
It is not known when debate on
the Jerusalem issue will begin.
Observers here believe that
discussion of the UN Concilia-
tion Commission plan for an in-
ternational regime for Jerusalem
will probably start in a few
weeks. Meanwhile Israel's chief
delegate to the United Nations,
Aubrey Eban, issued a statement
setting forth the policies of the
Israel Government with respect
_to various problems concerning
the Jewish state at the present
Assembly session. Mr. E_bans'
statement follows:
"The delegation of Israel en-
ters the new session of the gen-
eral assembly with many ardu-
ous tasks before it. It will make
it clear that Israel can never be
separated from Jerusalem, nor

will Jerusalem ever cease to be
a part of Israel. The religious
interests of the United Nations
in Jerusalem which . we fully re-
spect • neither justify nor require
the slightest intrusion into the
city's secUlar and political life.
"The delegation will pursue its
efforts to emphasize the para-
mount duty of the Arab states
to help resettle the refugees who
were uproiSted and dispersed by
the action of those very states.
There are already signs of some
progress towards international
recognition of Arab responsibil-
ity. Yet Israel must be vigilant
lest efforts are renewed to im-
pose the chief weight of this
problem upon itself.
"In the solution of general in-
ternational problems, Israel will
follow the principles which lie at
the foundation of its foreign
policy—the search for common
ground between conflicting pow-
ers, the advance of subject peo-
ples towards independence and
the defense of fundamental hu-
man rights."
