All chances for a compromise on the Jerusalem internationalization issue
were lost at Geneva this week when the United Nations Trusteeship Council
yielded to the demands of . Dr. Fadhil al-Jamali, Iraqi delegate, and was forced
after days of postponement to state that it could not leave a loophole in the
