They are in all the countries of the Near East contiguous to Israel. As I stated. they are without homes. without food. without clothing. without shelter. and without occupation. The effort to relieve these refugees has been going on ever since this fund was established by the United Nations in November 1948. For the first time in the history of the United Nations. it dipped down into its own treasury. on account of the critical condition of affairs and the necessity of those people. and contributed to this fund $5.000.000 from its working capital. The Arab countries have so far contributed out of their meager resources over $4.000.000 to the fund.
