Security Council Vote Denounced by Israel

(Continued from Page 1)
Israel which preceded Tuesday's :
raid on Lebanon, the U.S. moved ,
promptly to urge that everything
possible he done to hring under
control this unending cycle of vio-
lence which has beer: abetted by
outside forces. We regret that our
efforts have not been successful but
we urge everyone concerned to
have restraint.")
The Security Council was briefed
by Secretary General U Thant be-
fore it began its session. Thant
said his information was based on
reports by the acting chief of
L'NTS0 (UN Truce Supervision -
Organization). The 'reports stated
that the Lebanese delegation to the
Israel-Lebanon Mixed Armistice
Commission reported that an Is-
raeli armored attack was launched
on Lebanese territory in the early
hours of Tuesday, in the area of
NH Hermon.
Thant said the UNTS0 chief
reported that the senior Israeli
representative on the Mixed Ar-
mistice Commission said the ac-
tion going on in the El Arkoub
area east of the Ilasbani River
"was only aimed at the destruc•
lion of fedayeen commandos,
and it was not the intention of
Israeli troops to act against the

Lebanese army or population,
provided the Lebanese army and
population does not support the
fedayeen." Thant recalled that
he has long sought to increase
substantially e number of
observers on both sides in the
area, but without success. There
are reportedly six L N obseners
in Lebanon.
Lebanese Ambassador Ghorra
urged the Security Council to take
"positive action" for the imme-
date withdrawal of Israeli forces
from Lebanon and to condemn Is-
rael. He said Israel was "sadly
mistaken if she thinks she can
wring our necks." He referred to
a statement attributed to certain
Israelis that Lebanon is "a chick-
en and its neck has to be wrung."
The Lebanese envoy also refer-
red to Sunday's "Salute to Israel"
parade in New York. He said the
Zionists marched chanting peace
slogans while at the same time
"Israeli military hawks were
hatching in darkness their sinister
plan of attacking Lebanon."
Ambassador Tekoah charged Le-
banon with 61 aggressive acts since
April I against 22 Israeli towns,
which he named. He said the Le-
banese complaint was an attempt
to "shift responsibility" for the

Lebanese-Israeli difficulties to Is- sent more tanks into Lebanon after

UN of ficials reported last
week that AmbassadorJar-
ring had indeed sought to con-
vene Israel and Egypt in peace
talks in 1968 but were at a loss
to "explain fully" why they were
never implemented. This admis-
sion came on the heels of denials
that they were aware of such
efforts by Dr. Jarring. The dis-
pute began when Tekoah, in a
letter to Thant, cited the fact
that Ambassador Jarring had
sought to convene Israel and
Egypt but that Egypt had re-
jected his attempt. A UN spokes-
man responded that neither
Thant nor Undersecretary Gen-
eral Ralph Bunche had any
knowledge of such a proposal. A
spokesman for the Israel mis-
sion, however, told JTA that such
a proposal was contained in a
UN document (S-8309 of March
21, 1968.)
The UN spokesman explained
later that Dr. Bunche did not
, clearly understand Tekoah's refer-
ence in his letter to Thant because
he assumed the Israeli ambassador
was referring to recent activity by
Dr. Jarring. The spokesman said
after a telephone conversation be-
tween Dr. Bunche and Tekoah, the
undersecretary realized that Te-
koah was referring to "sugges-
tions Jarring made to the govern-
ments of Israel and Jordan and
the UAR in the earliest months of
his mission more than two years
ago for discussions and negotia-
tions under his auspices in Cy-
prus."
Tekoah submitted a letter to
Kosciusko - Morizet stating that
since April 29, eight Israelis were
killed and 17 wounded "as a result
of aggression from Lebanon." He
declared that "Israel holds the gov-
erment of Lebanon responsible for
all breaches of the cease fire and
all acts of aggression against Israel
perpetrated from Lebanese terri-
tory. The continuation of aggres-
sion from Lebanese territory has
created a situation in which Israel
must reserve its right to act in
self-defense."

THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS

People love festivals—religious fes-
tivals, national and local ones of all
sorts. Why should not automobile own-
ers meet and celebrate a festival of
their own? The automobile owners club
in the country got together and decided
to hold a "meet" of Its members every
year.
This year I decided to see what this
"Olympiada of Automobiles" is. And
(behold) I saw a parade of vehicles
of all ages and types, beginning with
a bus more than 30 years old and
up to the most modern automobile.
And added to them motorcycles and
motor scooters, which are Increasing
more and more on the country's roads.
All the vehicles in the stadium com-
peted in interesting and entertaining
contests and obstacle races.
The contests and races of the motor-
ized vehicles gave (caused) me great
pleasure, but like the other thousands
of spectators in the stadium, I was
glad mainly at another part of the
program. That was the part In which
Bedouin from the Negev participated
in a race on their camels and horses
while (carrying on) various sword-
plays. The policemen also brought their
trained dogs, who dLsplayed their pow-
ers in wonderful leaps over high ob-
stacles and through rings of fire.
I left the "Olympiads of Automo-
biles" and in my heart (there was) a
little envy of the owners of the beau-
tiful automobiles and a great deal of
admiration for the horses and camels
of the Bedouin and for the dogs of
the police.
