CAIRO—(Special)—Threats
of a new war against Israel
were voiced by Egypt's prime
minister, Naham Pasha, in a
speech before the Wafdist
party which is now the ruling
party in Egypt.
He demanded that England
withdraw from the Sudan and
turn it over to Egypt which ruled
it in ancient times. The Sudan,
at present, is under a joint ad-
ministration of England and
Egypt.
Turning to Israel, the Premier
repeated the accusation that Is-
rael is planning aggression and
has the support of "certain big
countries."
"Israel's expansion," he said,
"cannot be checked unless the
Arab countries take action to
liberate the Holy Land."
At Lake Success, meanwhile,
the United Nations Security
Council, which is now debating
the charges and countercharges
of the Arab nations and Israel,
has decided to refer the question
to the Mixed Armistice Commis-
sion with the stipulation that the
commission attempt to bring
about a reconciliation between
Israel and the Arab countries.
Solel Boneh crews clear railbed for a railway link between
Iledera and Tel Aviv, which will speed traffic between Israel's
capital and the main port of Haifa. Sold Bench, the Ilistradrut
(labor federation) contracting company, is the largest builder of
roads and houses in Israel. It conducts a training program to
prepare immigrants for jobs in the construction field. The Detroit
Ilistadrut will open a campaign for $300,000 on Nov. 30.

JERUSALEM—(Special)—Israel's first municipal and
