Emergency Session of the General Assembly

Following the events of the last ten days, both in the Middle East and Hungary, the Security Council called for a special emergency session of the General Assembly.

Near center, Mr. Louis de GUIRINGAUD, (standing), Representative of France, has come for a brief consultation with Sir Pierson DIXON, Permanent Representative of the United Kingdom. Seen on the other side of the aisle is Mr. Henry Cabot LODGE, Jr., U.S. Permanent Representative.
