Ex-Mufti Plotted Ahdullah's Death, R. S. Allen States Big Powers Draft UN Itequst' Asking Egypt to Halt Suez Blockade UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. — NEW YORK, (AJP)—A grave new threat to Israel was dis- CJTA) — The United States, closed in a report by a leading Britain and France agreed on the text of a resolution to be submitted to the Security Coun- cil when it resumes considera- tion of the Israeli complaint against Egypt, provjsied that in the interim no indication is re- ceived that Egypt will act vol- untarily to lift its blockade at the Suez Canal of shipping bound for Israel. This resolution will "request" Egypt to raise its blockade and will place the Council on record as holding the blockade to be wrong. It would thus, in the opinion of observers, condemn the Egyptian blockade morally, and legally make the Council's position clear.

In the American delegation it was felt that there was no point in seeking to medi- ate the issue unless there were some prior indication that the mediation effort could be suc- cessful. Informed observers were quick to notice the difference in pro- cedure in the handling of the Syrian complaint against- Israel last May and the kid-glove treatment of the Israeli com- plaint against Egypt now. In the former case, the United States, without delay, introduced a strongly-worded resolution con- demning Israel's. action in the Huleh region and ordering Israel to cease forthwith. In the Israeli complaint against Egypt, over a situation that has continued for three years, the United States is mov- ing delicately, seeking not to offend the Egyptians, and the resolution it is advancing mere- ly "requests" but does not order Egypt to halt a universally con- demned violation of interna- tional law. Britain Rejecting Egypt's Bid Acceptable to Israel LONDON—(JTA)— Egypt was prepared to allow oil cargoes to pass through the Suez Canal to the Haifa refineries on condi- tions acceptable to Israel, but Britain refused to go along. The report stated that Britain in- sisted that the matter has be- come one of principle and sug- gested that further postpone- ment of presentation to the UN Security Council of its resolution calling for an end to the Suez blockade is undesirable.
