The United States, said Mr. Wadsworth, would favor
extending the life of UNRWA "only if the Sinai project,
the Jordan-Yarmuk project, and other projects are begun
very soon." These are projects which, according to
UNRWA's latest report, have been held up by the Arab
countries, although the projects are intended to give work
to many thousands of Arab refugees.
"If prompt action" on the part of Arab states "is not
forthcoming," Mr. Wadsworth said, "the attitude of my
Government must inevitably undergo thorough re-examin-
ation, as its willingness to contribute to UNRWA will in
all probability be based on tangible evidence of progress
on the programs of public works within a reasonable time."
The U.S. has contributed a total of $130,000,000 for
Arab refugees since 1948. The U.S.A. will have to pay
between 65 percent and 70 percent of next year's budget
for UNRWA, totalling $25,100,000 for relief and another
$36,200,000 for irrigation and other rehabilitative public
works.

Israel Wins Against Egypt's Tat Galim' Charge

JERUSALEM, (JTA) — The Israeli-Egyptian Mixed
Armistice Commission rejected Egypt's charges about an.
alleged "attack" on Egyptian fishing boats by the Israeli
freighter, "S.S. Bat Galim," which Egypt seized Sept. 28.
Rejection of the Egyptian accusation is virtually an order
against the Egyptian government for the immediate re-
lease of the vessel and its 10-man crew. The captain and
crew of the "Bat Galim" have been in a Cairo prison since
the Egyptians seized the freighter in the Suez Canal.
When the Egyptians seized the freighter, carrying
meat to Israel from Ethiopia, they claimed that the Israeli
vessel had fired against two Egyptian fishing boats, sink-
ing one of the boats and causing the loss of two Egyptian
lives. The Israeli government rejected the charges as "fic-
titious," asserting that the "Bat Galim" did not even carry
arms, except for the captain's pistol. Several days later,
Egypt brought its charges to the Mixed Armistice Commis-
sion. Meanwhile, Israel complained to the United Nations
Security Council. The Security Council at its last session
ordered the Mixed Armistice Commission to place the "Bat
Galim" incident at the top of its agenda, after Egypt had
filibustered against a hearing of its own complaint.
At the Mixed Armistice Commission hearing, the Is-
rael delegation proposed a resolution which stated that the
Egyptian complaint was groundless and called upon Egypt
to release the ship and crew. Col. Carl G. Bartholdy, of
Denmark, chairman of the Israeli-Egyptian Mixed Armis-
tice Commission, voted in favor of Israel's resolution, and
was joined in that vote by the Israel delegate, making a
majority vote against Egypt.
Egypt then introduced a resolution accusing Israel of
violating the United Nations Armistice Agreement by send-
ing one of its ships into Egyptian territorial waters.
Egypt's contention in that resolution was that the Suez
Canal is an "Egyptian" water way. Col. Bartholdy ab-
stained from voting on that resolution, while Israel voted
against it — thus inflicting a second defeat upon Egypt's
delegation at the MAC meeting.
The crew of the "Bat Galim" is in good physical shape
and in fine spirits, Egypt's representative to the Mixed
Armistice Commission told the MAC. The Egyptian repre-
sentative denied a statement on Radio Damascus that one
of the crewmen had committed suicide.
During his recent visit to Cairo, it was learned here,
Gen. E. L. M. Burns, United Nations truce chief, arranged
for the members of the "Bat Galim" crew to receive news-
papers through the International Red Cross. However, UN
observers were not allowed to visit the imprisoned men.

Jordan Also Condemned by UN Commission

TEL AVIV, (JTA) — Jordan was condemned by the
Mixed Armistice Commission for firing into Jerusalem
streets last week and was instructed by the MAC to take
immediate, drastic measures to prevent recurrence of such
incidents. The complaint was brought by Israel, which
asked for and received an emergency meeting of the MAC.
Two Israelis were wounded when the Arabs opened fire
from the Old City.
