Arab and Communist spokesmen at the United Nations General Assembly, Israel's spokesmen, headed by the coun- try's foreign minister Abba Eban, continue to outline Israel's role and place their emphasis on the urgency of direct negotiations between Israel and the Arab states. Replying to an attack by King Hussein of Jordan and his threat of a continuation of the war, at the session on Monday afternoon, Eban reiterated that "a dialogue" between Israelis and Arabs is the first essential to peace and presented a formula for action.
