REFUGEES FROBLEM-UNITED NATIONS GENERAL ASSEMBLY | |
|
On January 25th I had a telephone conversation with Mr. F. E. Cumming-Bruce of the Dominions Office about the U.K. proposal on refugees now before the General Assembly. Mr. Cumming-Bruce had suggested in a letter several days before that a meeting of Commonwealth representatives on this issue might be useful. I told Mr. Cumming-Bruce that we would support a Commission on Refugees under the Economic and Social Council and failing that a specialized agency. I also outlined to him the situation described in Mr. Robertson's letter of January 14th to Mr. Rive.t I suggested that because Canada would not admit many refugees in the near future, we would not play a prominent part in the discussion of this matter in the General Assembly. | |
