I'sraeli Foreign Minister Abba Eban, fresh from scenes of fight- ing in Jerusalem, declared his country welcomed the appeal. But the first Arab reaction was to de- nounce the cease-fire call as an abjedt surrender to Israel. "Israel welcomes the- appeal for teca-iea frmuatd nh I must poEint outthat its imple- pntand sevcerptane of. Israel in its midst." U.S. Response U.S. Ambassador Arthur J. Gold- berg hailed the resolution ap- proved by the 15-nation council as an initial advance toward peace In the Middle East. Goldberg denied vigorously Arab charges that U.S. planes from car- riers of the 6th Fleet In the Medi- terranean had flown support of Israeli military operations. To disprove the charges, he called for U.N. inquiry and invited the United Nations to station ob- servers aboard the carriers in the fleet to report back to the inter- national community on flight ope- rations. President Johnson interrupted the televised meeting of the Coun- cil last night with an appeal for warring Mideast nations to accept a U.N. Security Council-approved cease-fire as the first step toward "a new time of settled peace and progress for all the people of the Middle East."
