The President (Personal)
From: Prime Minister Attlee
I am now in a position to give a fuller reply to your
message of the thirteenth August.
It is, of course, a great disappointment to us that you
should feel yourself unable to give support to the plan recommended
by the Anglo-American expert delegations. This discussion of the
summary of this plan which we recently presented to parliament
will form the first item on the agenda at the coming conference.
We ernestly hope that, as a result of the conference, some
solution will emerge which, even if not repeat not fully accepted
by either Arabs or Jews, may be possible of implementation without
too gravely endangering the peace of Palestine or of the Middle
East as a whole. But you will appreciate that any such solution
must, as matters stand, be one which we can put into effect with
our resources alone.
As regards the plan of partition submitted by the Jewish
agency, it is, as I have said, our intention to place the outlines
of the Provincial Autonomy plan before the conference. On various
matters, and in particular as regards the boundaries of the
provinces and the degree of self government to be conceded to them,
we designedly refrained from committing ourselves in any way when
presenting the plan to parliament. While we are adopting the
