North Carolina, Tuesday for a
voyage to join the U.S. Sixth

Military Contingents Called .
Impractical By Lloyd
LONDON — British Foreign
Secretary Selwyn Lloyd told
the House of Commons Monday
night that it would not be prac-
tical to establish United Nations
military contingents on Arab
and Israel borders to secure re- .
laxation of tensions there, but
the situation would be helped if
UN truce personnel in the area
were increased and Britain is
pressing the UN for such action.
The Foreign Secretary avoid-
ed answering a direct question
as to what the United Nations
can do in the Middle East "to
prevent aggression rather than
investigate it after it has taken
place." The present situation
along Israel-Arab borders is
"serious," Mr. Lloyd said.
Observers here are expecting
a joint Anglo-American pro-
nouncement on the Middle East
this week. Prime Minister Sir

House of Cornmons last Thurs-

Communist Leader
Charged with Zionism
BERLIN (JTA) — A promi-
nent Communist leader of non-
Jewish stock, whom the present
East German regime purged and
jailed at the height of the Corn-
munist anti-Semitic wave some
years ago after accusing him of
being a "Zionist," has just been
released from prison and stands
a chance of being rehabilitated.
The Communist leader is Paul
Merker, former state secretary
in the East German Ministry of
Agriculture and a member of
the top group of the Commu-
nist Party, the Politbureau. He
escaped from France to Mexico
during the war, and was con-
nected with a German language
weekly published there at the
time.

reaffirming the Tripartite Dec-
