Cordier, his executive assistant, check their lists following the vote on the Palestinian partition question by the United Nations General Assembly delegates meeting at the Queens Museum in New York. Oswaldo Aranha of Brazil, president of the General Assembly, awaits their verdict on the crucial vote to set up independent Jewish and Arabic countries. The Israeli ambassador to the United Nations and the Queens Museum both say a ceremony will be held Nov. 29, 2017 on the 70th anniversary of the vote. The agreement comes after museum officials initially reneged on plans for the event. (AP Photo/Matty Zimmerman, File)
