Middle East Arms Controversy
Rages as Border fights Erupt

UNITED NATIONS — Secre-
tary General Dag Hammarskjold
was reported Tuesday using his
recently developed • technique of
"quiet diplomacy" to point out to
members of the Egyptian dele-
gation that Egypt had violated
armistice rules by attacking UN
observers in the Nitzana-El Auja
sector.
The incident developed from a
clash between Israeli and Egypt-
ian troops in the Sinai Peninsula.
The Israeli unit was acting as
guard for UN observers when the
Egyptians opened fire on the
group.
The UN officials were search-
ing for two missing UN- frontier
surveyors, who later returned.
There were no casualties on
either side.

Trouble spots also developed
on the Israel-Jordan and Is-
rael - Syria borders. One Is-
raeli was wounded in the Jor-
dan incursion, while a Syrian
soldier was killed and another
wounded when Syrian forces
tried to kidnap an Israeli sett-.
ler.

It is understood that Mr. Ham-
marskjold has either already
spoken or would speak to mem-
bers of the Egyptian delegation
about the clash at El Auja.
In Washington, Secretary Dul-
les said that the Middle Eastern
situation was not on the agenda
of Thursday's Geneva Confer-
ence, but it is permissable to
place such an item on the agenda
if all the foreign ministers
agreed.
Asked if he thought the Soviet
Union might seek to inject itself
into the Tripartite Declaration
(U. S., Britain and France) of
1950, Dulles said he had twice
talked with Foreign Minister
Molotov and had not heard any
such suggestion.

Speaking in Jerusalem, Moshe
Sharett, in a foreign policy
speech in the Knesset, made an
impassioned appeal to the West
to supply Israel with arms in the
face of Egypt's "policy of war."
The war-like feeling which has
been eminating from Cairo was
further emphasized this week in
an interview by Paul Sann,of the
New York Post, with Egyptian
Premier Gamal Abdul Nasser.
Nasser, according to the inter-
view, believes he is "fighting not
Israel alone but the wealth of the
Jews," and sees himself as "a
man whose mission is to save the
Arab world from ruin at the
hands of the 'Zionist con-
spiracy.' "
Stating that "there .is no trope
of a compromise with Israel,"
Nasser indicated he had no
qualms about an arms race touch-
ing off a world struggle. "My
security is the most important
item," he said.

While the Czech arms deal
with Egypt is expected to be
concluded momentarily, the U.
S. State Department refuses to
talk of arms for Israel, which
has consistently spoken of re-
fusing any possible offer of
Soviet arms.

In Washington, 15 Congress-
men from New York demanded
that the U. S. provide arms and
conclude a security pact with Is-
rael. They also urged a reap-
praisal of the U. S. policy in the
Middle East.
The representatives "earnest-
ly demanded" that in order to
correct an imbalance of power
created by the Russian-Egyptian
arms deal, the U.S. "expeditious-
ly send" jets, tanks and fighter
planes to Israel. They also urged
negotiations begin to establish a
security pact guaranteeing the
integrity of Israel and Arab
borders.
U. S. Solicitor General Simon
E. Sobeloff, speaking at a State
of Israel Bond testimonial din-
ner in New York for Ambassador
_and Mrs. Abba Eban, warned of
the consequences of an arms race
in the Near East. "
At the same time, Gov. Averill
Harriman, of New York asserted
that "it is high -time" the U. S.
Government took steps to make
clear to the Arab nations that
"Israel is a going concern and
one that is here to stay."
Ambassador Eban reiterated
Israel's now-ancient plea that
there are no problems outstand-
ing between Israel and her niegh-
bors which would survive more
than a few weeks by a mutual
decision- to solve them through
negotiation.
The feeling of war rather than
negotiation continues, however,

THE CAINE MUTINY

By HERMAN WOUK

Israel ceased work at Bnot
Yaacov when Syria brought
about United Nations interces-
sion, highlighted by a tempor-
ary American suspension of
economic aid as a punitive .
measure against Israel.

An Israel spokesman said re-
cently that Israel could not wait
indefinitely for Arab agreement
to the Johnston Plan. Reports
from Cairo described the plan,
conceived as a formula for peace,
as on the verge of collapse be-
cause of Arab hostility.
Meanwhile, the flow of Com-
munist arms to Egypt is seen by
State Department leaders as in-
dicative of much greater danger
than a new Jordan River inci-
dent. Secretary Dulles is known
to view the Communist-Egyptian
deal as one of the most dangerous
world events since World War II.
George V. Allen, Assistant Sec-
retary of State for Near Eastern
Affairs, indicated that the likeli-
hood of an Egyptian attack on
Israel is increased by current de-
velopments. Department offic-
ials previously held that no dan-
ger existed of an Arab invasion of
Israel.
Despite Israel's admitted jeop-
ardy, State Department circles
indicated that they do not expect
the State Department to take im-
mediate action to aid Israel by re-
dressing the imbalance in mili-
tary power. Nor will the State .
Department grant. a security
pact to Israel outside the frame-
work of Arab agreement to Is-
rael's boundaries, as outlined by
Dulles in his Aug. 26 speech.
While there is grave concern
in the State Department that
harm may come to Israel from
Egypt's new weapons, the main
consideration today is an Ameri-
can attempt to counter Soviet
strategy by an American policy
aimed at regaining the favor of
Egypt and the other states of the
Arab League.

Circles in the State Depart-
ment hold the belief that the
Arab world would be further
alienated from the West if a
move on behalf of Israel were
made at this point. Israel is
being reassured that America
may make arms available at
some future time.

Secretary Dulles repOrtedly
told the National Security Coun-
cil that Israel is stronger than all
the Arab states combined. In
his view there would be time to
take action when and if the De-
partment is convinced the bal-
ance of power has definitely
shifted.
