The statement, which was adopted by tho Committee's Kxfu'utlve Roard, stressed that President Na»acr of tho United Arnl» llcpublto had "Ju»t announced his Intention to destroy tho ntiitn of Israel by war." On this basis, the resolution stated that to elect the United Arab Republic to the Security Council unless It complies with the basic principle of tho United Nations—"which is the preservation of peace"—would "maiw a mockery of tlio very existence of the United Nations." Tho resolution further railed
Stating that lie could not foresee "a satisfactory political solution" of the AraMsi'acl disputes In the Middle East, Dr. Davis declared tliat ,oven If sucli a development were to come "relatively soon," the international community would still be burdened'with the responsibility of aiding tho Arab refugees "for a decade or longer."-This Is so, he maintained, "because of tho difficult problem of helping refugees to become employable."

The Committee's Executive Hoard reaffirmed its belief that "a cessation of the aims race" hi the Middle East-would "contribute greatly" to a "firm and lasting peace" in the area. The resolution added: "Until the armaments race is ended and .peace fully asuured, essential resources will be wast cd on weapons and armies and urgent and complex problems— which affect not only the Middle East but the entire world—will remain unsolved." The Committee urced the United States government "to encourage contact between Israel and the Arab states either directly or through the United Nations." Tliis country, the resolution stated, should continue to octend "on nn expanding scale" economic and technical aid to all peoples of the-Middle-East. Earlier In the week, a committee of tho General Assembly postponed for at least a week tho entlra discussion of a number ol Issues relating to Security Council membership.
