1. In my view the resolution of 1st November should be interpreted
as requiring Dutch withdrawal to areas physically occupied on
August 4th and Kirby would be fully justified in continuing to
press for this.
2. If Dutch reject suggestion Kirby should endeavour to persuade
Graham and Van Zeeland to agree to report the position to the
Security Council. If Van Zeeland dissents majority of Committee
should report.
