Palestine Week here, which began with the marking of Palestine Day last Friday, was to be subdued. "This is very bad timing for a Palestine celebration," one diplomat opined. "For one thing, the prestige of the Palestine Liberation Organization has reached a new nadir as a result of the war between two Moslem countries that have adopted the Palestinian cause. "For another, the Arab world is presently divided, as it has not been for a long time. The Arab states are in a state of confusion and dis- array and the uncertainties concerning a new American Administration and its Mideast policy are only con- tributing to the confusion." This is the third consecu- tive year that the United Nations celebrated Pales- tine Week. The celebration of the week starts each year on Nov. 29, which is offi- cially designated by the UN as Palestine Day. The Nov. 29 date was selected by the PLO because that was the day in 1947 when the UN voted to partition Palestine. In another develop- ment here, a three- member UN inquiry group has recommended that the Security Council adopt effective measure "to prevail on Israel to cease forthwith its set- tlement policy in all its aspects in the occupied Arab territories, includ- ing Jerusalem." The group consists of the representatives of Por- tugal, Bolivia and Zam- bia. D OPENING SALE!! Every gift item imaginable for your home, office or personal use is here.

Meanwhile, a debate on the Palestinian question, a regular feature on the Gen- eral Assembly's agenda in recent years, opened Mon- day, but drew little atten- tion from diplomats or the media. The Palestine debate is scheduled to last until the end of this week. The Gen- eral Assembly is expected to adopt the recommendations of the Palestinian Rights Committee, as it has in previous years.
