UNITED NATIONS (P) - Amid
delay over initial peace moves in
Suez sector, the U.N. General As-
sembly heard Arab and Commun-
ist delegates voice new demands
yesterday that Israel be compelled
to give up the Old City of
Jerusalem.
A U.N. spokesman said no ob-
servers would be sent to the Is-
raeli-Egyptian Suez front until
final agreement is worked out on
their nationality and just where
they will be stationed.
Lt. Gen. Odd Bull, Norwegian
commander of the U.N. Palestine
truce supervisory organization,
conferred with Egyptian officials
in Cairo and planned new talks
Cairo Parley
To Consider
June Defeat
CAIRO (A')-The four most bel-
ligerent Arab nations opened 'a
summit conference in Cairo yes-
terday to discuss means to erase
the consequences of last month's
war with Israel.
Meeting in secret session in the
Presidential Palace were President
Gamal Abdel Nasser of Egypt,
President Noureddin Atassi of
Syria, President Abdel Rahman
Aref of Iraq and President Hou-
ant Boumedienne of Algeria.
Ahmed Mahgoub
They are expected to be joined
today by Prime Minister Moham-
med Ahmed Mahgoub of Sudan,
who is flying from New York,
where he attended the UN General
Assembly meetings on the Middle
East crisis.
These five are the Arab leaders
most determined to carry on the
war against Israel until the con-
sequences of the defeat in the
June war are eradicated.
Nasser,' however, is reported to
favor building up the Arab ar-
mies to a maximum of prepared-
ness before launching what is oft-
en called "the second round" of
this fight against Israel.
Boumedienne and Atassi appear
to be pressing for an immediate
resumption of military operations
against Israel, and Aref and Mah-
goub may side with them.
King Hussein of Jordan met
with Nasser and Boumedienne in
Cairo early this week but is not
included in the second Arab sum-
mit meeting.
Jordan
Socialist Syria regards mon-
archist Jordan with suspicion, and
before the war with Israel was ad-
vocating the overthrow of Hus-
sein. That suspician was not eras-
ed when Hussein made up with
his old enemy, Nasser, signed a
mutual-defense treaty, then join-
ed in the war against Israel.
As a militant Socialist, Bou-
medienne is considered cool to-
ward Hussein. He did not' attend
the first meeting between Nasser
and Hussein this week but enter-
ed the joint talks later.
Atassi was the last of the four
leaders to arrive in Cairo, landing
yesterday morning.
today with the Israelis in Jerus-
alem.
Bull is trying to get agreement
on a 25-man observer force, in
accord with a consensus reached
in the Security Council Monday.
Both countries have agreed to
accept observers.
In the 122-nation assembly,
delegates from the Communist
and Arab countries threw their
support behind a Pakistani reso-
lution deploring Israel's refusal to
rescind measures taken to put
Jerusalem's Old City under its
control. The resolution called also
for the Security Council to take
the necessary measures to ensure
compliance with the resolution.
A vote on the Pakistani resolu-
tion is not likely until early next
week.
Approval
Most delegates predicted the
resolution would be approved in
the assembly, but some believed
Israeli moves to assure access to
the holy shrines might influence
the vote.
Official Israeli sources said in
Jerusalem that Israel and the
Vatican were near agreement that
special status should be given to
the holy places. Msgr. Angelo
Felici, Vatican undersecretary for
extraordinary affairs, was wind-
ing up a week of discreet diplo-
macy in Jerusalem, including a
meeting with President Zalman
Shazar.
Syrian Ambassador George J.
Tomeh, who described himself as
a Christian Arab, asserted that
Jewish control over the holy
places was unacceptable to Mos-
lems.
Soviet Union
Meanwhile, Party General Sec-
retary Leonid I. Brezhnev and
Premier Alexei N. Kosygin re-
turned yesterday to the Soviet
Union after attending the East
European summit conference in
Budapest.
The Soviet-bloc leaders, at the
end of the two-day secret meeting
issued a statement demanding
that Israel withdraw from Arab
territory conquered in the June
war. But it made no threat of a
"resolute rebuff" if Israel refused.
The same East European leaders
made this threat in a statement
after a Moscow meeting June 9.

terrorism for the past four days.
Early yesterday a bomb was
lobbed from a passing car into
the police compound, damaging
several vehicles but causing no in-
juries.
Police fired a single shotgun
blast at about 100 teenagers at-
tacking them on one of the main
streets of Kowloon, across the har-
bor from Hong Kong island.
Crowds Dispersed
Authorities quickly dispersed a
crowd that was throwing stones
at fire fighters trying to put out
an apartment blaze.
Hong Kong authorities yester-
day lifted the dusk-to-dawn cur-
few they had imposed on the
colony for the past two nights.
Brief demonstrations involving
a few hundred persons broke out
periodically and ended quickly.
Police arrested two persons dem-
onstrating with a crowd in front
of a Communist-run department
store.
About 1000 left-wing workers
gathered in a union hall yesterday
but dispersed after a brief meet-
ing without incident.;
Three Arrested
Three persons were arrested in#
police raids in the small ruralX
fishing village of Tai Po where"
terrorists bombed and severely
damaged a rural committee
building Wednesday.
Wednesday night, as Hong Kong
began to recover from a night .of
violence and destruction. riot
squads, undercover agents and sol-
diers forced their way into the
quarters where large stores of
two pro-Communist union head-
weapons and propaganda material
were uncovered. Police arrested
about 40 suspected agitators in
the two raids.
Water Rationing
The issue which, at least par-
tially stimulated the violence, was
the colonial government's an-
nounced severe water rationing;
policy chiefly because Red China1
had not yet announced if it would
resume, its sales of water to the
colony.
Wednesday night's terrorist hit-
and-run attacks, the most violent
in four days, caused widespread!
damage to public transportation
vehicles and left two persons dead
and several injured.
Also, late that night, some mobs
began breaking open water pipes
and letting the precious water flow
down gutters.
The night of terror followed a
statement by Hong Kong's colon-
ial secretary, D. R. Holmes, that
"Hong Kong may well be enter-
ing a new phase of terrorism."

Intelligence reports list three

which could mean 15,000 or 20,-

jungle bases along the frontiers
of Laos and Cambodia for a new
drive into the central highlands.
The B52 attacks were their first
in the zone since May 11. Their
long absence from that area ap-
parently was due in part to the
threat from North Vietnamese
surface-to-air missiles.

Some SAM sites had been de-
tected in the area and knocked
out in the interval. Though B52s
fly out of range of most anti-

be able to hit them.

WASHINGTON - Senate and
House conferees failed Thursday
to break a deadlock on legislation
to head off a nationwide rail
strike. But they called on six shop-
craft unions and railroads man-
agement to refrain from a strike
or lockout pending resumption of
talks Monday.
Reacting to a union threat to
strike after. midnight Saturday in
the absence of legislative agree-
ment, the conferees urged the
unions and management "that in
the national interest, there will
be no strikes or lockouts pending
resumption of the conference
Monday afternoon."
There was no indication the
conferees had made any progress
but Rep. Harley O. Saffers, (D-
Va), said "there is still hope."

JERUSALEM - A foreign Min-

will let "tens of thousands" of
Arab refugees return to the oc-

Jordan as rapidly as possible after
Aug. 10.
That is the deadline date for
applications from those wishing
to return to their west bank
homes. An estimated 100,000 to
150,000 fled across the Jordan in
and after the six-day war.
The return will be coordinated
by the International Red Cross,

Ministry adviser.

wanted to keep the American alli-
ance as long as there was a
threat from the Soviet Union.
But he urged an effort at un-

Communist countries and said this
had led France to take positions
opposed to the United States on
Vietnam and the Middle East.
De Gaulle came to Bonn for
two days with six of his top cab-
inet ministers. It was part of an
attempt to revive the 1963 friend-
ship treaty, which he signed with
the late Konrad Adenauer just a
few days after he vetoed Britain's
first bid to join the Common Mar-
ket.
During the three years that
Ludwig Erhard was chancellor, the
treaty had little effect. The two
governments are still far apart on
many basic issues. Bpt the treaty

max with major presentation on
world affairs.
Although the meetings were held
behind closed doors, de Gaulle's
statement was relayed to news-
men in detail by Roger Vaurs,
chief spokesman for the French
Foreign Ministry.
De Gaulle began by noting that
the dominant fact in the world
today is the enormous power of
the United States. He said there
were two ways that Europeans
could respond. The first was to
accept American hegemony and
become a part of it. This he called
the easy, comfortable way.
No Hostility
The second way, he said, was,
"without hostility to the United
States, to safeguard our national
identities."
De Gaulle also made his vow
to maintenance of the American
alliance.
"So we do not disapprove in
any way of the physical presence
of the United States in Europe,"
he added.
