Israel Calm Despite Egyptians' Saber Battling at Border (Continued from Page 1) Observers here believed that, should hypothetical action by Is- real materialize, Egypt would not intervene if the Israeli move were to be 'limited both as to timing and area. Egypt, it is seen here, would be forced to act only if Israel were to try to occupy Syrian territory. Such Israeli action is viewed here as "out of the question" since Is- rael has no territorial aspira- tions toward Syria but only wants to impress the Damascus leaders with the fact that con- tinued aggression does not pay. For the present, as the situation is viewed here. Egypt's presence in the Sinai desert has created only a war of nerves based on threats, counter threats, com- muniques and warnings. As far as Syria is concerned, she has suc- ceeded in her main ambition — • which is to drag Egypt into the disputes with Israel, escalating to international proportions what • has been purely a local issue. Experts also link the highly publicized Egyptian moves with the presence currently in Damascus ! of Egyptian Chief of Staff Gen. Ahmoud FaWzi. who is conferring I with Syrian Chief of Staff Ahmed Sweidany and Defense Minister Hafez Hassad. The U.S. Embassy in Cairo had been placed on standby alert Mon• day as Egyptian President Nasser announced that Egypt was placing all armed forces on an emergency basis to support Syria against an alleged Israeli threat. Reports to Washington described long columns of Egyptian combat units and art illery rumbling through the streets of Cairo in the general direction of Israel. The newspaper Al Abram. reflecting official Egypt ian views, charged that Israeli troops were massing near the Syrian border and that Egypt was preparing to strike Is- rael from the South to help Syria repel the attack.

Radio Damascus Tuesday chal- lenged U.S. Secretary of Defense Robert 'McNamara to send 2,000,000 American troops to the Middle East to block a coming "war of liberation" against Israel. The broadcast said "There are 6,000,000 people in Syria ready to crush them (the American s)." The broadcast originated at an anti- Israel rally at the University of Damascus. U.S. concern about the situation in the Middle East was expressed Monday in a statement issued in New York by Ambassador Arthur J. Goldberg. head of the U.S. Mission to the United Nations. He said that the U.S. government is "distressed over reports of in- creased tension and military prep- arations." Declaring that the U.S. "strong- ly supports" the efforts of UN Secret ary-G e n e r al U Thant to maintain peace in the Middle East, Ambassador Goldberg revealed that "diplomatic efforts" on the part of the U.S. government are now under way in support of Thant's efforts. "We hope that the response to his efforts will be positive." he stated. His statement was made after George J. Tomeh. the representative of Syria at the United . Nations, warned the Secu- rity Council that a "Suez type" of crisis was developing in the Middle East. Tomeh suggested - that the Central Intelligence Serv- ice and the U.S. Sixth Fleet were involved in a "conspiracy" against , Syria. Two more terrorist attacks Monday night, both of them near the Jordanian border, added to the tension. An explosive charge was detonated near llamatzia in the I.ahish area about five miles from the border. Early Tuesday morning another blast in the Samearea damaged a telephone pole. Observers said that while these were relatively small and harmless attacks, they could bring an escalation in view of thr Egyptian troop concentra- tions and that what was current- ly a war of nerves might be- come real war.
