UN May Transfer M. E. Debate to Security
Council; Eban Assails Prolongation of War
UNITED NATIONS (JTA)—The
United Nations General Assembly,
now in the final week of general
debate, may not turn to debate of
the Middle East question next Mon-
day, as scheduled.
Most of the '77 speakers who
have already been heard in the
general debate have aired their
positions on the Middle East situa-
tion and advanced their views on
the procedures necessary for reso-
lution of the Arab-Israel dispute.
Most of the remaining 36 national
representatives still to speak in
the general debate are expected
to cover the Middle East situation
in their exposition. Under the cir-
cumstances, there is increasing
question here whether anything
can be gained by having the en-
tire Middle East debate repeated,
as scheduled, "as a matter of
priority."
Israel announced its pledge of
the equivalent of $218,000 in Is-
raeli pounds to the United Na-
tions Development Program.
were not only Israel's troop' with-
drawal and an end to Arab belli-
gerence but also the freedom of
navigation "through international
waterways."
Senator Attillio Piccioni of Italy
carried the demand for freedom of
shipping one step further by men-
tioning specifically "the right of
all states to free and peaceful pas-
sage through the Straits of Tiran
and the Suez Canal."
Similar attitudes were taken by
Norway's Foreign Minister John
Lyng, and Iceland's Foreign Minis-
ter Emil Jonsson. The latter listed
five principles to be observed in
the UN efforts toward a settlement
of the Middle East crisis.
Dispatches from Beirut reported
that King Hussein of Jordan had
his own plan for a Middle East
solution through the use of Thant's
"good offices." This plan report-
edly had the backing of the Soviet
Union.

Eban said that it was incorrect
to speak of a "six-day war," re-

is whether this war is going to be
liquidated by a final peace settle-

Bormann Is Reported
Alive in South America
PARIS (JTA) — A claim that
Hitler's right hand man, Martin
Bormann, is alive in South Amer-
ica was made last weekend by a
man who aided in the arrest of
Adolph Eichmann and other war
criminals.
Simon Wiesenthal, author of "The
Murderers Are Among Us," de-
clared in a radio interview in Paris
that "Bormann is living in Brazil,
close to the frontier of Paraguay
which he crosses in the event of
danger." He said "there are a num-
ber of German 'colonies' in Para-
guay," and asserted that he knew
people who know Bormann and
"I know some of the names he
goes under."

Gideon Rafael said that "United
Arab Republic authorities have
only themselves to blame for the
incidents which have caused so
much death, injury, suffering and

"It is highly regretable", Ra-

authorities chose not only to ini-
tiate these incidents but to do so

tions."
"When fire is opened on Israeli
forces near the cease fire area by
Egyptian forces, the Israeli forces
are compelled, for self defense, to
return the fire in order to silence
the Egyptian guns," Rafael said.
"It is with utmost restraint that
Israel forces react in face of at-
tack and harrassment."
Rafael denounced as "complete-
ly unfounded" the allegation that
the Israel government is motivated
by a policy of selective shelling.
Its policy, he reiterated, "is to re-
spect the cease fire on the under-
standing that the UAR will also
act in complete reciprocity. It is
noteworthy," Rafael said, "that the
UAR has not given any similar as-
surances That its policy is likewise
based upon the complete and re-
ciprocal observance of the cease
fire. On the contrary, UAR official
statements corroborate the well
known fact that they are in utter
violation of the obligations under-

Israel firmly rejected Wednes-
