End Arab Attacks, Agency
Calls on Security Council

LAKE SUCCESS (JTA)—An
appeal by the Jewish Agency to
the U.N. Security Council to take
"all appropriate action under the
Charter" against the Arab states
which have eommitted acts of ag-
gression against the Jews of Pal-
estine and are preparing for "of-
fensive operations on a larger
scale" following termination of
the Palestine Mandate May 15,
was made public by the agency.
The 17-point Agency statement,
signed by Moshe Shertok
dressed to Alexandre Parodi, pres-
ident of the Council, also pointed
out the British Government's res-
ponsibility for the aggressive ac-
tions of the Arab Legion in Pales-
tine. The memOrandum listed spe-
cific Arab Legion actions—such as
the occupation of the town of Jer-

icho and the Alemain military
camp near Jerusalem and the at-
tack on Gesher last month—and
reminded the Council of specific
British pledges to remove the Le-
gion from Palestine. In the light
of this failure to remove the Le-
gion, Britain must be held respon-
sible for attacks by Transjordan
troops -on Jews, the memorandum
said.
Shertok also detailed a number
of invasion attacks on Jewish set-
tlemezIts in northeastern Pales-
tine by Syrians and Lebanese.
Despite various denials of attacks
on Dan, Dafni, Kfar Szoldit•nd
other colonies, be said, the evi-
dence of shell-damaged buildings
and the existence of casualties tes-
tify to the existence of Arab at-
tacks on May 1 and May 4, as pre-
viously reported by Jewish
sources.

`Neutral Mayor' for Jerusalem
FLUSHING MEADOWS (JTA)
—Dr. Jose Arce, president of the
United Nations General Assem-
bly, gavelled the world organiza-
tion into authorizing the British
government to appoint a "neutral
mayor" for Jerusalem, shorn of
all effective powers to maintain
peace.
The final vote was 35 to zero,
with 17 nations abstaining. Arce,
whose ruling was attacked after
the Assembly adjourned as "high-
handed" and "a piece of expert
railroading;" maneuvered a vote
on the first three paragraphs of
his ,own draft resolution author-
izing the British appointment.
Francis B. Sayre, of the United
States, restated America's pledge
to undertake a share of the re-
sponsibility for administering Je-
rusalem, but only under a trustee-
ship agreement. His assertion that
the UN has no authority to ad-
minister any territory except un-
der the Charter's trusteeship ar-
ticle was echoed by Faris El
Khouri, of Syria.
Flare up at Hearing,
Reasserting his continued be-
lief that he believes partition,
with an international force to
maintain peace, as the best solu-
tion to the Palestine problem,
former N.Y. Governor Herbert
Lehman, after a conference with
President Truman, said he fav-
ored a limited Arab-Jewish
truce. He denied that ' he was
considering taking any position
as advisor to the President on
Palestine.
U.S. delegate to the UN, War-
ren Austin was questioned on the
Palestine issue which flared up
qt the Congressional hearing on
the revision of the UN Charter.
Congressman Sol Bloom de-
manded to know' whether the
U.S. will recognize the Jewish
State, but Austin said he could
not be expected to answer that
question.

Jericho Truce Seeker

Between You and Me

By BORIS SMOLAR

(Copyright. 1948, Jewish Telegraphic Agency, Inc.)

Inside, Washington

COL. ROSHER LUND, repre-
senting UN Secretary General
Trygve Lie, was in Jericho this
week to confer with Arab League
representatives in behalf of the
truce commission which includes
the American, French and Belgian
Consuls in Jeruialem.

Beth Aaron Sisterhood
Meets to Hold Election

High officials in Washington are perturbed over the question of
U. S. recognition of the Jewish State in Palestine . All indications
are that following termination of the Mandate on May 15, the pro-
visional Jewish Government will seek diplomatic recognition, no
matter 'what the decision of the United Nations ... And it appears
certain that the governments of Russia, Poland, Romania, Czechoslo-
vakia, Hungary, Bulgaria, Yugoslavia and some Latin American
countries will accord the -Jewish State such recognition . . . What,
in such a case, should be the attitude of the United States? . . .
Should the U. S. Government continue its present policy of opposing
immediate recognition of a Jewish State? Or should it accept
the de facto existence of the Jewish State despite British opposition.
and give it official recognition? ... President Truman seems to feel
that he ewas completely misguided by advisers who urged him to
change from partition to trusteeship . . . But the question of Jewish
immigration is still bothering him . . . He belieVes that limited
Jewish immigrttion, not exceeding 5,000 immigrants:a month, could
appease the Arabs and permit the negotiation of a truce.
Some leaders within the ranks of the Jewish Agency seem to be
influenced by the State Department's recent moves . . . Especially
by the Department's threats .. . One of those threats is that the
U. S. Government may put an embargo on the sending of funds from
this country to Palestine . . . On the whole, the State Department's
argument presented to Jewish Agency leaders runs as follows:
"If you declare a Jewish State, you may involve yourself in a war
with King,Abdullah of Transjordan . . We know that Soviet Russia
and her allies will support you, but we may be compelled to support
the Arabs . . . Thus a third world war may develop for whiCh the
Jews will be blamed."
