UN Commission Hands Israel
A Rebuke for Slaying of Arabs
Continued from Page One
JERUSALEM — The Israel-Jordan Armistice Com-
mission Tuesday censured Israel "in the strongest terms"
for the raid early Monday on the Jordan village of Naha-
lin in which nine Arabs were killed and more than a dozen
wounded. The vote on the resolution condemning Israel
was cast by the Jordanian delegates and s the United Na-
tions Chairman, Commander Elmo Hutchinson, U.S. Navy.
Israel walked out of the commission last week after the
failure of the unit to act on the Negev bus massacre. The
resolution announced at UN headquarters here called the
raid "the most flagrant breach of the armistice agree-
ment." It continued: "The Mixed Armistice Commission
condemns Israel in the strongest terms for this latest
aggression and calls on Israel authorities to take the most
effective measures to prevent such and other aggressions
against Jordan in the future and apprehend and punish
those responsible."
Israel's Premier and Foreign Minister Moshe Sharett
told a press conference that authoritative information on
the Nahalin incident has not yet reached the Israel govern-
ment, but the general impression is that the Arab village
was attacked in reaction to the murder by Jordanians of
a Jewish guard at the village of Kissalon last week, and
that this is a local affair.
Mr. Sharett said that Jordan's assertion that a large
force was "unreliable" and pointed out that "Arab sources
generally exaggerate wildly." He added that the Israel
government deplores violence, but the primary responsi-
bility lies with those whO started the chain of violence.
"Once they stop, everything will be quiet," he declared.

Britain 'Regrets' Soviet Veto
LONDON -- A spokesman for the Foreign Office
Tuesday expressed the British government's "regret" at
the Soviet veto Monday of the New Zealand resolution in
the United Nations Security" Council.
The spokesman indicated that Britain would consult
with other interested parties on the results of the veto cast
by Vishinsky.
The three-power consultations on Israel's request that
the Western Powers bring the Israel-Jordan situation to
the UN Security Council for an immediate debate are near-
ing an end and the Three Powers — United States, Bri-
tain and France—are expected to reach a decision soon
on the Israeli appeal. ,
(David Horowitz, Jewish News- special UN correspon-
dent, charged this week that U.S. Delegate Lodge was luke-
warm in his support of the New Zealand Resolution, and
seemed to adopt an attitude of appeasement. Mr. Horowitz
wrote, prior to the Vishinsky Veto:
"Charles Malik of Lebanon, never missing an oppor-
tunity, used the 'Lodge statement as a basis for a resump-
tion of the oft-heard Arab arguments calling upon Israel
to abide by the old General Assembly resolutions on the
Internationalization of. Jerusalem, borders and refugees.
Thus, as in the case of the hydro-electric project involving
Syria's complaint against Israel, the United States, again
apparently in fear of another Vishinsky veto, has tried to
appease the Arabs and avoid giving Russia ground for a
second veto. Whether all this will influence Vishinsky is
hard to tell. But it might take another Soviet veto to teach
the U.S. Delegation here that even compromises of this sort
serve to encourage the Soviets to go along further with
the Arabs. Being fully aware of the fact that the current
singular issue in the Security Council involves the censure
of Egypt only, Lodge nonetheless had the audacity to ad-
monish Israel aso. Said he: 'If, disregarding the collective
efforts of the UN, the parties (meaning Israel also) , bring
the house down upon themselves, it is they (Israel also)
who will suffer most.' The United States Ambassador
ought to know that it is statements such as these that bol-
ster the Arabs and justify the continuance of their fiend-
ish attacks against Israel."
(Mr. Horowitz also exposed the U.S. member of the
Israel-Jordan MAC, as gollows:
"During the not so long ago Security Council debates
on Kibya this column reported on an incident here involv-
ing Commander Elmo Hutchinson's relations with the
Arabs. This writer had indicated that the U.S. Naval Com-
mander, who is chairman of the Israel-Jordan Mixed Arm-
istice Commission, had fallen prey to Arab 'influences.' His
latest act on the Scorpion Pass incident, despite the evi-
dence at hand, only serves to confirm this report. It now
also becomes understandable why the Arabs insist that
Israel meet Jordan only under the auspices of this Com-
mission headed by Hutchinson,")
