Political partition with continuing economic unity, long thought the soundest solution to the knotty Palestine problem, has received definitive backing from the 11-nation UN Special Committee. This sixth, and, it is hoped, last Holy Land report since 1937, now awaits immediate General Assembly action to implement it, meet British withdrawal qualifications, and maintain Palestinian tranquillity...
Sweltering Paris was deserted except for the Boy Scouts, who were holding their first Jamboree (see EDUCATION) since the war, and the economists, who were trying to implement the "Marshall approach." The Scouts got on fine; their favorite pastime was the barter of their various treasures-scouting insignia, penknives, hats, fountain pens, a flute, a flock of horned toads (brought by delegates from Texas).

There is the possibility that the voters, if sufficiently aroused, could exert enough pressure to obtain the money necessary to implement the proposals the President's advisers, and the European statesmen, are considering; but the plan must be sold first, and few real attempts in that direction have been made. To convince a people already groaning under their tax load that even more gifts abroad are not only necessary, but desirable...
