UN Instructs Experts to Seek
Better Middle-East Economy

LAKE SUCCESS, (JTA)—The UN Palestine Concilia-
tion Commission made public its instructions to the economic
survey mission, revealing a broad approach to the solution
of the Arab refugee problem and the improvement of the
economic situation in all the Middle East countries which
suffered by the Palestine war.€

In its mandate the Commis-
sion called upon the economic
group established under the
chairmanship of Gordon R.
Clapp of the United States to
examine the economic situation
in the affected countries with a
view to mending war-created
dislocations, to facilitate the re-
patriation, resettlement and re-
habilitation of the refugees in-
cluding the payment of compen-
sation to them, and to promote
economic conditions for the
maintenance of peace and sta-
bility in the area.
The Commission instructed the
experts to recommend an opera-
tional plan for carrying out this
program together with estimated
costs and methods of financing.
It authorized th•mission to work
out its problem with the assist-
ance of the interested govern-
ments and all of the specialized
agencies and international or-
ganizations of the UN which can
render technical assistance.
T h e Conciliation Commission
suggested the following lines of
operation:

1. Explore economic measures which the
interested parties can take without outside
financial assistance.
2. Examine proposals and past plans
and surveys of economic development Pro-
jects requiring outside assistance • which
will make poseible the absorption of the
refugees on a self-sustaining basis in the
shortest possible time and with minimum
expenditure.
3. Examine economic projects which can
provide temporary employment of refugees
who are not absorbed in the major de-
velopments scheme projected by the miss-
ion and which require outside assistance.

Headquarters of the United
Nations economic mission will be
located in Beirut, Lebanon.
United Nations headquarters
reported that the Conciliation
Commission has asked the Is-
raeli delegation at Lausanne for
clarification of press reports of
declarations made in the Israel
Parliament concerning the in-
stallation of certain Israel gov-
ernment services in Jerusalem.
The Israel delegation declared
that it knew nothing of the re-
ported declarations but that it
would communicate with its gov-
ernment on this matter. The
delegation stated further that
the policy of the government
with regard to Jerusalem con-
tinued to be that set forth by
Aubrey Eban, permanent repre-
sentative of Israel to the United
Nations during the debate pre-
ceding the admission of Israel
to the UN. At that time Eban
said Israel would preserve free
access to the Holy Places.

UN Commission Turns Down
Requests to Continue Talks

LAUSANNE, (JTA)— The Con-
ciliation Commission turned
down proposals by the Israel and
Egyptian delegations at the
peace talks here that the parley
be continued in Lausanne rath-
er than break up and reassemble
in New York next month.
King Abdullah of Transjordan
will not accept the Conciliation
Commission's report on the in-
ternationalization of Jerusalem,
Saudi Mulki Pasha, head of the
Transjordan delegation to the
peace talks here, declared.

Cabinet Defeats Ben Gurion's
Demand for Proclamation
Of Jerusalem as Capital

JERUSALEM, (JTA)— A pro-
posal by Premier David Ben
Gurion that Jerusalem be pro-
claimed the capital of Israel has
twice been voted doWn in the
Cabinet.
In the most recent Cabinet
discussion on the problem, the
Premier was supported by Min-
ister of Religion Judah Mat-
mon, Minister of Rationing and
Supply Dov Joseph and Minister
of Communications Da v i d R e-
mez. The other Cabinet members
argued for a waiting policy. They
expressed the opinion that if the
proclamation were countered by
a UN General Assembly recom-
mendation to the Israel Govern-
ment to move back to Tel Aviv,
the government would have no
choice but to resign. This situa-
tion, it was felt, would create
undesirable internal complica-
tions.
Marshall Plan Rejected
The Marshall Plan aid in its

present form is not acceptable
to Israel, Foreign Minister Moshe
Sharett declared at a meeting of
600 representatives of the Pione-
er Youth Organization in the
Jewish Agency building here.
The Foreign Minister reassert-
ed Israel's desire and determin-
ation to maintain the strictest
neutrality between the East and
the West. He emphasized that
the main task for Israel in the
present international situation
is to be alert and prepared for
any eventuality. He called for
a revival of the pioneering spirit
in the country in order to help
the absorption of hundreds of
thousands of new arrivals into
Israel's economy and asked
pioneers who built the country
and brought it to statehood to
mix with the newcomers and
teach them how to live a Jewish
life in Israel.
Eliahu Dobkin, member of the
Jewish Agency executive, ad-
dressing the gathering, drew at-.
tention to the urgent need for
reviving the pioneering spirit in
countries outside of Israel
whence the future reserves for
Israel will be drawn.

Huge posters put up all over
Jerusalem cautioned Jewish
inhabitants of the city against
being misled by an extremist
Jewish religious sect which is
accused of planning to create
disorders a n d disturbances
when representatives of the
UN Conciliation Commission's
economic survey mission ar-
rive here next week.

men between 27 and 29 active
service will not exceed 18
months, while active service for
women between 18 and 20 is
limited to 12 months.
The entire government de-
fense bill was passed later by a
vote of 62-0, with 12 abstentions.

Export-Import Bank Grants
$2,350,000 Credit to Israel

WASHINGTON, (JTA) — The
board of directors of the Ex*-
port-Import Bank announces
authorization of a credit of $2,-
350,000 to Israel for the purchase
of materials and equipment in
the United States for the ex-
pansion of Israel's ports.
Major improvements are plan-
ned for Israel's port at Haifa
and much of the new equipment
will be put into use there. The
capacity of Haifa port facilities
will be increased by , 50 percent,
it was said.
The bank has taken note of
the congestion in the port which
has become increasingly serious.
Much of the cargo entering Is-
rael has to be unloaded by ship's
gear, which is often inadequate,
because of the lack of suitable
port equipment. Present unload-
ing methods are slow and cost-
ly processes which add to the
congestion in the port and de-
lay ships waiting at anchor to
unload.
Seven million dollars of the
$100,000,000 American loan to Is-
rael have been placed at the dis-
posal of the Palestine Electric
Corporation to buy electrical
equipment from the United
States, Reuters reported from
Tel Aviv. Israel formerly bought
