Okays Palestine Study
Transcribed from the clipping
Paris.— After a remarkable plea for Christian rights in the Holy Land by Zuloaga Mejia, Colombian delegate to the UN General Assembly, the Assembly voted to continue the Palestine Conciliation Commission.
"Twenty centuries of history, a civilization, the religion founded by Jesus Christ the Jew who died for all humanity, the blood of Christians shed in the Crusades all forbid us of the 20th century to negotiate on the blood of those who have given their lives to give to Christianity the places that Christ has sanctified and sprinkled with His Blood," Mejia said.
