U.S. Urges israel Back Arms to Arabs,
Uses Bandung Moves as Argument
Continued from Page 1
Israel may "antagonize" the
Arabs.
Israel Ambassador Eban is
expected to resume high level
diussion of Israel's security
situation in t h e near future.
The State Department will con-
tinue its policy of permitting
Israel export permits, allowing
purchase here of certain cate-
gories of military supplies, but
grants of free arms like those
given Iraq are definitely not in-
tended, highly placed -sources
said. They spoke with reference
to the .coming new fiscal year.
The • State Department de-
clined to comment on whether
the United States is planning
to enter the Anglo-Turkish-Iraq
accord. At the press briefing
Tuesday, State Department
spokesman Henry Suydam said
he had "no report" on develop-
ments.
-(In his speech in Detroit at
the Israel Independence Day
rally, Rep. Alvin M. Bentley
said that although no arms
were planned for Israel, only
Iraq,.among the Arab nations,
was to receive arms aid. See
detailed story on Page 3.)
U.S., Israel Exchange
Letters on American
Aid to Jewish State
have just signed has a double
significance. It brings valuable
aid to Israel's economy by cre-
ating a. basic reserve of vital
commodities. And it is an illus-
tration of- a helpful and friendly
approach by the government of
the U.S. to some -of Israel's most
important problems and needs.
"The signature of this agree-
ment covering a sum of $9,400,-
000 marks another act of close
cooperation in economic and
supply question's between our
two governments. I have writ-
ten to the Secretary of Agricul-
ture -Ezra Benson expressing
gratification at the successful
conclusion of these negotiations
in which he has taken such a
close personal interest at every
stage."

Bandung Parley May
Lead to Mediation of
Arab-Israel Conflict
UNITED NATIONS, N. Y.,
(JTA)—The 29-nation Asian-
African conference .at Bandung,
Indonesia, may have turned in-
to a boon for Israel, instead' at
a defeat in absentia, it was in-
dicated here. Reports reaching
here, chiefly from Arab sources,
indicate that the Arab League-
sPonsored resolution at Ban-
dung, whi,ch on the surface
placed the Asian and - African
countries in the Arab League
corner, may have opened the
door for possible mediation of
the Israel-Arab conflict.
It is understood here that not
only India and Burma are now
interested in Israel-Arab media-
tion but also Iran, Pakistan,
Turkey, Thailand and perhaps
Indonesia. In connection with
these reports it is pointed out
as significant that a foreign
broadcast by Radio Teheran on
Israel. Ambassador Abba Eban
and Harold Stassen, director df
the U.S. Foreign Operation Ad-
ministration, made known that
they have exchanged letters
containing agreements on an
additional $9,700,000 in economic
aid made available by the For-
eign. Operations Administration
to Israel for the fiscal year end-
ing June 30, 1955.
This brings expenditures of
the Foreign Operations Ad- April 21, while the Arab League
ministration for projects and
scoring a tri-
commodities in Israel to a was presumably
total of $40,000,000 for the
fiscal year. In a letter to Mr.
Stassen, Anibassador Eban ex-
pressed the Israel govern-
ment's appreciation, "of this
renewed evidence of friend-
confidence on the
hip
part of the government of the
United States."
'Ambassador Eban also signed
an agreement with U.S. officials
that would make available $9,-
400,000 in • surplus agricultural
supplies to Israel. Repayment
will be in Israel currency.. The
agreement covers , wheat, rice,
and other commoclitig. After
placing his signature - to the in-
strument, Mr. Eban said:
"The agreement which we
umph with its anti-Israel cam-
paign at Bandung, had hinted
that mediation would be in
order.
The broadcast implied that
neither- the Western Powers nor
the United Nations have thus
far succeeded in effective action
to settle Israel-Arab disputes
and appealed to , both Jews. and
Arabs to "show good faith" in
efforts to arrive at a settlement.
The Iran radio seemed to refer
to Iran as "neutral" as between
Israel and Arab states. "A good
many neutral observers are of
the opinion that, in order to end
Arab-Jewish disputes and fore-
stall disturbances in the Middle
East, these differences require a
quick solution," the broadcast .
declared.

Congress Urged by Eisenhower
To Continue Israel, Arab Aid
WASHINGTON, •(JTA)—Presi-
dent Eisenhower, in a message
to Congress askin.g enactment of
a Mutual Security program for
the fiscal year ending June 30,
1956, reported that American
cooperation with Israel 'and the
Arab states "is beginning to
bring results, particularly in the
development of water resources.•
The President said:. "The
continuing tension between
the Arab states and Israel
handicaps the peoples of all
Near East nations. We shbuld
continue to work with the
governments and peoples on
both sides to improve their
economic status and accelerate
their progress toward lasting
peace between them. Our - co-
operation is beginning to bring
results, particularly in the de-
velopment of water resources.
Such developments in the Pal-
estine area can go far to re-
move present causes of ten-
sion."
Mr. Eisenhower indiCated
pleasure' over the Iraqi-Turkish
pact. He said: "In the Near
East, our stalwart North Atlantic
Treaty Organization• allies,
Greece and Turkey, are bOth
making significant progress. But
neither of them can alone sup-
port• the substantial armed
forces which they maintain for
their own defense , and for the •
NATO force goals in that area.
Their initiative in promoting se-
curity arrangements in the Bal-
kans, and Turkey's vigorous ef-
fort for Middle East defense,
reinforce the need for continued
-support of their efforts. Iraq's
action in joining with Turkey in
a defensive security arrange-
ment is another favorable devel-
opment."
Mr. Eisenhower did not make
known the specific amounts of
aid the Executive Branch will
ask for Israel or the Arab states,
nor, as a matter of fact, for any
country. In general terms, he
said the program to be submit-
ted "reflects the greatly im-
proved conditions in Europe and
provides for the critical needs of
Asia. It encourages private
overseas investment and private
enterprise abroad, fosters an in=
crease in cooperative effort, em-
phasizes loans rather than
grants wherever possible."
The program recommended for
the fiscal year 1956, he said, pro-
poses no economic aid for the
original Marshall Plan countries
in Western Europe. The Presi-
-dent emphasized that "the im-
-mediate threats to world secur-
ity and stability are now cen-
tered in Asia" and that the "pre-t
ponderance of funds requetted
of Congress will be used to meet
the threat there." He.specifically
mentioned the- Middle East as
part of the area to which he re-
ferred.
Mr. Eisenhower "Strongly"
recommended that the United
Nations Technical Assistance
program "be supported in a con-
tinuing end adequate manner."
In total, for fiscal year 1956, the
President recommended that
Congress approve funds totaling
$3 530 000 000 for the Mutual- Se-
:curity program, as proposed in
the budget message. .

James P. •Richards,
_ .J et
South
chairman of the flonse Foielenr
Aft4ix.s,_c_orntiaittee. said he be-
lieves that so-called develop-
ment assistance, for which
President Eisenhower asked
funds for the new fiscal year,
should be ended June 30 as
scheduled - under present law
for countries that have no
military agreements with the
United states including Israel
and India.
Richards failed to point out
that Israel has been seeking a
military arrangement with the
United States but has so far
been rejected by the State De-
partment which is seeking to
win Arab cooperation in the
Near East.
In the , past he has criticized
the amount of .American aid ex-
tended to.Israel.
