DECEMBER 21, 1957. THE BULLETIN OF THE CATHOLIC LAYMEN'S ASSOCIATION OF GEORGIA FIFTEEN ANDERSON'S BARBER SHOP 3103 ROSWELL ROAD CE 7-0711 BUCKHEAD U. N. ARAB REFUGEE RESOLUTION SEEN WEAK; PROBLEM LABELED “TRAGIC” [ TERMITES? JA. 2-7784 j THE DINETTE GOOD FOOD Across From Joseph's Infirmary Si. JA. IVY 3-9207 ST., N. 24S IVY ST., N. E. ATLANTA, GA. By Helen Rammel (N.C.W.C. News Service) UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. — The resolution on relief for 936,- 000 Palestinian Arab refugees passed by the General Assembly’s Special Political Committee is generally regarded here as a weak attempt to solve a despe rate problem. The resolution asks the General Assembly to ui’ge U. N. member governments “to contribute or in crease their contributions” to the U. N. Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA). It was passed after a renewed warning by UNRWA director FRANK B. LOWNDES & SON FUNERAL DIRECTORS Formerly Awlry & Lowndes Company 310 Fourteenth Street, N. W.

Labouisse that if suf ficient funds are not given to the nearly bankrupt agency, “t h e members of the General Assemb ly will be creating a situation which may lead not only to great human suffering, but also to re newed unrest in the whole (Near East) area. Such a situation would gravely prejudice possibilities, for a just solution of the tragic hu man and political problem of Palestine.” (Mr. Labouisse’s prediction echoed that made by a leading Catholic student of the problem in a report to the American Bish ops at their annual meeting in Washington in November. Msgr. Peter R. Tuohy, president of the Pontifical Relief Mission for Pal estine and secretary of the Cath olic Near East Welfare Associa tion, said that unless the plight of the Arab refugees from Pale stine is solved, the Near East will slip behind the Iron Curtain. (“The l'efugees have been liv ing in subhuman conditions for the past nine years,” he said, “and they are most vulnerable to communist propaganda, which promises them a better type of daily living and a possible solu tion to the wrongs they have suffered. If the Palestinian prob lem is not tackled soon, commu nist infiltration will become even more extensive in the next 12 months.”) The ; resolution passed by the Special Political Committee fol lowing Mr. Labouisse’s urgent plea was sponsored by the Ne therlands, New Zealand, the Philippines, the United Kingdom and the United States. Passed by a vote of 49 to 0, with 21 absten tions, it admits UNRWA’s criti cal financial situation and asks for further contributions. It also asks that reconciliation between Israel and the Arabs be encou raged, expressed thanks for the cooperation of the Arab states where the refugees- now are liv ing, and asks continued work with UNRWA projects in trying “to make substantial numbers of refugees” capable of self-support. Mr. Labouisse in his statement had told the Special Political Committee that only one govern ment, the United States, had made any definite increase in its pledges. He noted, however, that even the U. S. pledge .was con ditional, that it would not be forthcoming if increases were not made by other countries.
