Javits Asks Showdown with Egypt; Women's Council Asks Israel Backing WASHINGTON -- Sen. Jacob K. Javits called' for a showdown with Egyptian President' Nasser shoud Egyptian troops be moved into the Gaza Strip. The New York Republican, speaking before the National Council of Jewish Women which concluded its biennial conven- tion here last weekend, a Is o called on the Administration to lead a free world boycott of the S u e z Canal in an effort "to bring Nasser to terms." Sen. Javits urged that $250,- 000,000 in U.S. financial aid be assured Britain, France . and other large users of the canal to help bypass the waterway if it becomes necessary. Both Sen. Javits and former Senator Herbert H. Lehman, hit hard at the ned for immediate affirmative United States action to bring peace in the Middle East. • The final day of the meeting brought a tribute banquet to Herbert and Edith Lehman, at which the recently retired Sen- ator assailed the Eisenhower administration for c a using trouble in the Middle East by a lack of "simple honesty." , With a galaxy of Senators and Congressmen present as guests of Council delegations from their areas, Lehman cou- pled a personal pledge to, con- tinue in public activity with a stinging rebuke to the State De- partment for "telling the Arab leaders one thing and the Is- raeli leaders another." He declared t h a t only by making the Arab states under- stand that they cannot destroy Israel "can the designs and cabals of the Kremlin be frus- trated." Earlier, Mrs. Leonard Weiner, of Detroit, in- terrupted t h e convention schedule to urge immedi- date passage of a resolution on Israel .and the Middle East. "Events have been moving s o fast," said M r s. Weiner, who was elect- ed assistant re- carding secre- t a r y, "that Mrs. Weiner Council action should be taken immediately." Originally, the resolution was to come up the following day. The proposal called for the U.S. to use immdiately "the full weight of its p o.w e r, prestige and authority to pre- vent withdrawal of the United . a W . Nationi from the Gaza Strip," and urged the U.S. to actively support freedom of navigation in the Suez Canal and the Gulf of Aqaba. The resolu- tion was a do pted . unani- mously. The Council also adopted res- olutions dealing with immigra- tion, civil rights and foreign economic aid, urging repeal of the McCarran-Walter Act and elimination of t he national quota origins system, voicing support of President Eigenhow- er's request for civil rights leg- islation and stressing support of economic aid to underde- veloped countries of the world.- Mrs. Moise S. Cahn, of New OrleanS, was elected to a second two-year term s president of the National Council. Two De- troiters were honored with na- tional otifices . besides Mrs. Weiner's election, Mrs. Herschel Kreger was elected to the na- tional board of directors.

Don't Sit This One Out. Dag Fails with Nasser, Presses Israel Instead . (Direct JTA Teletype Wire to The Jewish News) • , UNITED NATIONS, N.Y.—On the basis of information thus far received here, Dag Ham- marskjold's mission to Cairo seems to have met with absolute failure in that he has not been able to obtain a single conces- sion frorft Egypt's, Col. Gamal Abdel Nasser regarding any one of the important issues. It is not known here whether Mr. Ham- marskjold has even asked Presi-. dent Nasser the key • question posed by Israeli-whether Egypt continues to insist •that it has "rights by belligerence" vis-a- vis Israel. - Best guesses , by observers here are that, since the Secre- tary General has failed to get any concessions from Col. Nas- ser, and since all• of his prestige is tied in with his efforts to obtain- at least some settlements of the vital Middle East issues, he will, upon his return, turn full pressure against Israel in an effort to get concessions from the Jewish State. (On the eve of Hammar- skjold's departure for Cairo, fcrur members of the Israel UN delegation, headed by Israel Foreign Minister Golda Meir, had conversations with him and put the onus for solving the problem of "right of belliger- ence squarely on the UN Sec- retary General. The Israel dele- gation used that point• as its major issue. (It Was understood to have told Hammarskjold that there is no objection whatever to Egypt's return to Gaza—if it is a peaceful Egypt that goes into the strip. But the Israelis made it clear they reserve their' right of forceful action if Gaza goes back to Egypt under a state of belligerence.)
