(Continued from Page 1) provocatiOns of conscienceless and irresponsible slanderers." The pullout of British forces from Jordan and American troops from Lebanon was fol- lowed by the start of a United Arab Republic anti-Israel prop- aganda drive which pushed Jor- dan back once more into the international spotlight. UAR President Nasser pre- sumably emboldened by assur- ances from the Soviet Union set his propaganda mills work- ing with a charge that Israel was mobilizing troops near the Jordan border. Israeli spokes- man immediately denied the charge and suggested that Nas- ser was throwing up a smoke- screen to cover his own plans in regard to King Hussein's em- battled regime: Israel was being wary in re- gard to public discussion about Jordan's future a point made strongly by Prime Minister Da- vid Ben-Gurion in a Knesset de- bate on a Herut demand for a full debate on that issue. The Prime Minister said that Nasser "knows" — and that is all he needs to know — that we are opposed to the entry of foreign troops in Jordan." He said it was better that Jordan should continue to exist and he ap- pealed for restraint in discuss- ing policy on Jordan. He warned it would be very harmful to discuss publicly what Israel would do in the event of violation of the Jordan- ian status quo. He declared "there is no need to tell a hos- tile world what we are going to do in a hypothetical case es- pecially on a question involv- ing peace or its opposite." The Knesset debate also was enlivened by a Befi-Gurion de- nunciation of Nasser in terms of unusual vigor. The Prime Minister said that the only rea- son Nasser should not be com- pared with Hitler was that Is- rael would not let Nasser do what Hitler had done. Ben Gur- ion said Nasser was capable of such crimes.

The diplomats were expect- ed to cite the statements of Israel's position made in the Knesset by Prime Minister Ben-Gurion, as well as offi- cial denial by Jordan that there were any Israel troop concentrations of the Jordan- ian border. beamed to the Near East that Israel is preparing aggression against Jordan and massing troops. The broadcast alleged that Israel plans to seize Jor- dan within a few days. Radio Moscow, in the Arab language last monitored here, said Israel's alleged plan "threatens not only the exis- tence of Jordan as an Arab state, but the peace of the whole of the Middle East." Sev- eral Soviet newspapers, includ- ing Pravda, the Communist Party paper in the USSR, have made similar charges. The Cairo press has been filled for several days with re- ports that Israel was concen- trating troops on the Jordan frontier. The Nasser-controlled Middle East News Agency said France is sending six bombers to Israel. The newspaper Al Ahram charged Israel with hav- ing joined in a British-support- ed plot involving military op- erations aimed at placing the west bank of the Jordan River under United Nations Control. "State Dept. Repudiates Israel Threat Charges Direct JTA Teletype Wire to The Jewish News WASHINGTON -- State De- partment spokesman Lincoln White said Tuesday that "the United States Government has "no information whatsoeVer" that would confirm Soviet • and -United Arab Republic charges that Israel is mobilizing military forces near the Jordan frontier.

President Will Not Convene Capitol Parley on Bigotry Direct JTA Teletype Wire to The Jewish News WASHINGTON — President Eisenhower indicated Wednesday rejection of requests by religious organiza- tions for him to summon a national White House con- ference to rally public opinion against religious and racial bigotry and bombings. Eisenhower said he has opposed such bigotry during the six years he has held the Presidency and did not believe public opinion had to be rallied through a special conference under his auspices. He said he was uncertain that the proposed national White House conference was the proper way to organize national sentiment against bigotry. - Religious groups had urged the White House to convene a conference that would bring together leaders of religion, education, social welfare, business and labor.
