program. Arms supplies for Iraq
will continue to flow, State De-
partment sources said, and ship-
Ments may be increased as an
answer to Communist encroach-

White was asked about pos-
sible American adhesion to the
Baghdad "Northern Tier" Pact.
He said the United States looked
with favor on the Baghdad Pact
but was "not thinking in terms
of adherence at this time."
Eisenhower Kept Informed
on Israel-Egypt Issue
President Eisenhower has been
kept informed of the latest Is-
rael-Egyptian development in a
special summary prepared for
him by the State Department, it
was r e v e al e d by government
sources who said the President
had read the summary in his
hospital room at Denver.
(American arms aid to- Is-
rael definitely was deferred
this week as a result of the
statement read in behalf of
President Eisenhower, in Den-
ver, on Wednesday, by Assist-
- ant Secretary of State Herbert
Hoover, Jr. The President,
while being non-committal on
immediate aid to Israel, said
the United States will pro-
vide aid for self-defense but
will not participate in an arms
race.)
In a special statement on the
Israel-Egyptian situation, issued
after Assistant Secretary of State
for the Near East George V. Al-
len had met separately with the
Israel and Egyptian Ambassadors
to Washington, the State Deprt-
ment - expressed its "deep con-
cern" over the "incresing tempo
of hostilities between Israel and
Egypt," and charged both states
with violations of the general
armistice agreement. Ambassa-
dors Abba Eban and Dr. Ahmed
Hussein were summoned by Mr.
Allen to the State Department to
hear parallel statements of the
United States view of the current
situation.
(In London Anthony Nutting,
Minister of State for Foreign Af-
fairs, expressed Britain's "anx-
iety" over the situation along the
Nitzana — El Auja — border in

separate interviews with Ambas-
sador Eliahu Elath of Israel and.
Ambassador Sarni Abdul Ftouh.
He urged that both Israel and
Egypt adopt a policy of "re-
straint" and cooperate with UN
Truce Chief Burns.)
The State Department said re-
ports had been received that UN
observers "have been prevented
from carrying out their assigned
functions. The United States con-
tinues to b e l i e v e that these
United Nations observers should
have full liberty to perform their
peaceful functions."
Ambassador Eban indicated to
reporters after meeting with Mr.
Allen that he had informed Mr.
Allen of Israel's "great concern"
over "the spectacle of Egyptian
troops advancing b e y o n d the
demarcation line and entrenching
themselves in Israel territory,"
which he said, were "more like
an invasion" than previous en-
croachments by Egypt. He gave
Allen assurances that- if Egyptian
forces remained on their side of
the frontier they could have
"complete tranquillity." But he
added "if they go beyond it they
don't deserve it."

als made by Secretary General

Gen. E. L. M. Burns, with the

markers along the boundary be-
tween the two countries in that
area.
Israel's acceptance of the

proposals for a new truce
with Egypt, made by UN
Secretary General Dag
Hammarskjold, w a s an-

for a demarcation line on
the Israel-Egyptian border.
Egypt is-balking at the new
truce proposal.

According to the p r op o s a 1,
members of Gen . Burns' staff
would mark the boundaries with-
out being accompanied by either
Israel or Egyptian representa-
tives. Egypt is expected to reject
the proposal.
