Pro-Arab Intentions Stymied in UN Resolutions
(Continued from Page 1)
unlike the Afro-Asian draft, it re-
ferred to truce violations.
Bolstering Eban's assertion, Yost
declared that "it would be ex-
tremely irresponsible for the Gen-
eral Assembly to adopt any resolu-
tion which would appear to add to,
subtract from, interpret or distort
the careful balance of the Resolu-
tion (242) which was worked out
by the Security Council after long
and laborious. negotiations." Eban
had said that such a new resolu-
tion would "undermine the agree-
ment so arduously achieved." Any
attempt to give a particular sec-
tion of Resolution 242 "special
weight or primacy," the American
ambassador went on, "would en-
danger the solid progress that
resolution represents." In that
connection, he noted that the Afro-
Asian draft contains five para-
graphs relating to one part of
Resolution 242—namely, occupied
territories—but "only passing ref-
erence" to "a just and lasting
peace" and "no reference" at all
to "termination of belligerency" or
"sovereignty . . . within secure
and recognized boundaries." Yost
added that the Afro-Asian call for
Security Council action to enforce
Resolution 242 "seems clearly in-
tended to suggest ... that it take
action against Israel." Such a
resolution, he said, would pose
"serious problems, both legal and
political," and would be "counter-
productive." The assembly, he
said, should "continue to act sober-
ly and responsibly and to avoid un-
realistic and unhelpful action."
Regarding the Palestinians, Yost
reaffirmed the importance of their
"legitimate concerns and aspira-
tions," but observed that "it is not
now clear what peaceful goals
Palestinians set for themselves,
who speaks for them, what their
relationship is to established Arab
governments, or if there is any
consensus on the Palestinian role
in a peaceful settlement." He call-
ed on the Palestinians and the
Arab governments to "work out"
those matters among themselves.
The U. S. representatives denied
that arms aid to Israel violated the
U. S. peace initiative and indicat-
el support of "permanent Israeli
retention" of occupied areas. He
stressed that President Nixon has
been consistently "rebuffed" by
the Soviet Union in his attempts
to initiate arms-reduction talks. He
said U. S. weapons were being
shipped to Israel "with restraint"
while Soviet shipments to Egypt
Israel's Right Seen
by London Liberal
LONDON (JTA)—Lord Byers, a
leader of the Liberal Party, said
that "Israel has a right to stay in
the Middle East like the rest of
the states in the region and cannot
be expected to connive in her own
destruction."
Addressing the annual meeting
of the Anglo-Israel Association,
Lord Byers stated that "as long as
the Arabs are reluctant to admit
that Israel has a right to existence
and that the Jewish people have
deep roots in Israel, there can be
no solution to the Middle East
problem."
He castigated those who believe
the road to a Mid East peace can
be found by dismantling Israel,
and warned that such an attempt
would lead to a "major" war. "A
peace treaty, signed by both parties
to the conflict and containing
mutual commitments to each other,
could bring peace to the Middle
East," Lord Byers said, adding,
"Once Israel feels that she has
security, no one need fear her."
have been "immense." Noting the
"serious" standstill violations by
Egypt, Yost stated, as have Presi-
dent Nixon and Eban recently, that
"confidence" is the "crucial ques-
tion." The U. S. has "incontro-
vertible evidence," he said, of
Egyptian violations, which have
"brought about a significant
change in the military status quo
in the (Suez) canal zone." Pledg-
ing the U. S. to "do everything
possible" to reactivate the Jarring
negotiations, the ambassador urged
the assembly members to "assist
rather than hinder these efforts by
moderating their approaches and
paying careful attention to any
resolution submitted for their ap-
proval."
Eban, in an impassioned appeal
to the General Assembly, urged
that body to "vigorously refuse"
to "erode" or "weaken" Security
Council Resolution 242 of Nov. 22,
1967, which would "undermine the
agreement so arduously achieved."
Excoriating Egypt for being the
"unrepentant author" of a "mur-
derous" aggression against Israel,
Eban reaffirmed that the Egyptian
violations of the truce accord are
"the sole obstacle" to resumption
of peace negotiations. The Israeli
Foreign Minister, who spoke for 45
minutes, charged the international
debate called for by Egypt had
been "degraded" by the "wicked
charge" of "Israeli aggression" de-
livered Monday in the assembly by
Egyptian Foreign Minister Mahm-
oud Riad.
Britain's ambassador to the
United Nations strongly defended
the Security Council's Mid East
Resolution and declared that his
government could not support any
measures by the General Assem
bly to "amplify, modify or alter"
it. Sir Colin Crowe, addressing
the General Assembly defined
Britain's position on an Arab-
Israeli settlement in terms vir-
tually identical with those used by
Foreign Secretary Sir Alec Doug-
las-Home.
JERUSALEM (JTA) — Reliable
sources. here said President Rich-
ard M. Nixon has received a secret
list from Premier Golda Meir nam-
ing the occupied. Arab territories
from which Israel refuses to with-
draw under any circumstances. Ac-
cording to the report, the list was
intended as information only for
the U. S. government. Nixon re-
portedly took note of Israel's posi-
tion without indicating approval or
disapproval.
ROME (JTA)—Pope Paul VI
urged his followers Sunday to pray
for an extension of the Middle East
cease fire and a "positive out-
come, of the current Mid East de-
bate in the United Nations General
Assembly lest all hopes for peace
and an equitable settlement be in-
definitely delayed." In this All
Saints Day address to throngs in
St. Peter's Square, the Pontiff
warned that the Mid East crisis
could become aggravated, possibly
involving other nations.
WASHINGTON (JTA)—Assistant
Secretary of State Joseph J. Sisco
declared Sunday that "We don't
really feel that the way to peace
is through a shouting match at the
General Assembly." Interviewed
on the CBS-TV affiliate here,
WTOP-TV, the State Department
official said of the Middle East de-
bate now under way at the United
Nations: "We don't feel that the
way to peace is through propa-
ganda exchanges in the General
Assembly . . . One views these
debates with understandable res-
ervation." Such confrontations, he
said, "contribute to making posi-
tions more rigid rather than de-
veloping the kind of flexibility that
