JERUSALEM — Israel on
Tuesday demanded immediate
action by Jordan to prevent ag-
gressive acts and violations of
the armistice, and called on the
Mixed Armistice Commission to
discuss definite ways and means
for the maintenance of tranquil-
ity along the borders instead
of merely passing resolutions of
censure.
Israel's demand was voiced
at a meeting of the Israel-Jor-
dan MAC, called to discuss Fri-
day night's *attack near Yahud
in which an Israeli civilian was
murdered by four khaki-clad
Jordanians.
The Israeli delegate, Major
Doron, pointed out that Jordan
had paid no heed to former
condemnations and it was there-
fore pointless to obtain still an-
other condemnation.
Israel, he said, demanded ac-
tion and not mere words. "We
doubt the usefulness of further
decisions by the Mixed Armis-
tice Commission. Five resolu-
tions are quite enough to im-
press on Jordan the gravity of
the situation created by the
wave of attacks carried out in
the past few weeks," Doron de-
clared.
Noting a Jordanian announce-
ment to the effect that orders
had been issued to Jordanian
troops to fire at infiltrators
crossing the border, the Israeli
delegate asserted: "However,
we cannot but doubt the sin-
cerity and effectiveness of this
order as long as Jordanian au-
thorities persist in spreading
among their citizens the doc-
trine of hate and hostility to-
ward Israel."
Major Doron went on to point
out to the UN body that the or-
ganization of "Fedayeen" (sab-
otage squads) was continuing
with the object of spreading ter-
ror in Israel. He added, if sol-
diers and civilians in Jordan
are to cease their attacks their
leaders must end their warlike
proclamations and the "Fed-
ayeen"—whose very existence is
contrary to the terms of the
general armistice agreement —
must be disbanded.
"The last resolution of the
Mixed Armistice Commission,"
Major Doron continued, "could
not have stressed with greater
force the dangerous situation
created along the border.
The Jordanian attacks have
seriously undermined the cease-
fire reaffirmed to the Secretary
General of the United Nations,
and very little of it is left by

now. We demand that the Jor-
danian delegation ensure that
attacks from Jordan's territory
against Israel cease."
Lt. Col. Castonguay, chairman
of the commission, closed the
meeting a f t e r- Doron's state-
ment. The meeting, which had
been viewed as an important
indication of whether Jordan
would cooperate after its walk-
out the day before, heard a
statement by the senior Jor-
danian delegate to the effect
that there was not sufficient
evidence to conclude that Jor-
danians were responsible for
the crime under discussion, but
that his government would do
everything it could to track
down those who might be im-
plicated. Col. Castonguay ex-
pressed confidence that in view
of that statement every effort
would be made to reduce ten-
sion.
