LAKE SUCCESS, (AP)—Solving the Palestine problem seemed Saturday to have been left mainly to the United States and Russia.
After two weeks of cautious debate, the United Nations security council late Friday called on the five major powers to find a method of carrying out partition of the Holy Land into Jewish and Arab nations, recommended by the assembly Nov. 29.
Britain announced off the floor that she would not take part in the consultations. China has abstained from much of the U. N. voting on Palestine. France has been reluctant to take a stand.
This prompted the general view that the future of the Holy Land rested on the doorsteps of Washington and Moscow.
The first big-power meeting was set for Monday morning in the New York offices of Soviet delegate Andrei A. Gromyko. A 10-day limit was put on the sessions.
