Session LAKE SUCCESS, N. Y.( April 3 (JP). —United Nations officials today ex pected quick approval of Britain's proposal for a special session of the General Assembly to take up the delicate Palestine problem. Without waiting for replies to a poll of the 55 member states under taken last night by Acting Secretary Gen. Victor Hoo, top officials al ready were busy with preliminary arrangements for the extraordinary session, which ^probably will begin early in May. Since the British proposal had re ceived the indorsement of the other four major powers in advance, it was regarded as a certainty that at least 23 other members would ap prove the plan and thus provide the necessary majority of 28. Polish Delegate Oscar Lange in dicated Immediately that his gov ernment would offer no objections and Beleian Delegate Femand van Langenhove, while not committing himself, spoke of the special session as if it were definitely settled. The spokesman for one of the big powers said he expected no serious opposition. He «aid the only objec tions he had heard came from the Arab states and he was not sure that they would vote against the propœal now. It was generally agreed that the Palestine problem, which has given Britain a headache for the past 25 years, was the "hottest potato" yet handed to the United Nations. This was reflected in the com ment of Mr. Van Langenhove, who said "we are starting a job and we never know how we will get out of it." D.C. Jobless Claims Up But Still Low as Total For Country Drops Fewer workers throughout the country have sought unemployment payments during the first three months of this year in comparison with last year, but the number of District claimants for Jobless bene fits has been increasing, Federal Security Administrator Watson B. Miller announced last night. Figures on unemployment com pensation disclosed, however, that the percentage of Washington workers collecting unemployment compensation still is among the lowest in the country. The totals do not Include payments to ex servicemen under the GI Bill of Rights. Mr. Miller reported the average number of payments to jobless workers throughout the country was down 40 per cent in comparison with the first three months of last year. In an average week this [ year, he said, four out of every 100 workers covered by state unem : ployment compensation were un i employed as compared with 6.8 per 100 last year. • In the District, however, It was reported, 3,539 claims were allowed in February as compered with 2,357 In January.

Southwest Play Area Site Again Urged by Citizens The use of the property, 199 Chespeake street S.W.„, as a rec reational area was again proposed by the Washington Highlands Citi zens' Association in a letter to the District Recreation Board. The group feels the refusal of the board to accept the offer of the property was a mistake that should be reconsidered. The asso ciation pointed out that the Wash ington Highlands area is in great need of additional recreational facilities. The members expressed the belief that low-flying planes from Boiling Field would be no hazard and cited the fact that insurance rates on the house at that address were the same as on any similar house elsewhere In the District. The property was acquired by the War Department under orders of the last Congress', on the ground the planes constituted a hazard to the owners. The group announced a baseball school for all boys under 14 will be held at Fort G rebel playground for five Saturdays, starting April 19. The meeting was held in Patter son School, South Capitol and Dar rington streets and was conducted by Joseph V. Moran. president. Pôles Split Up Estates WARSAW.
