RYAN Associated Press Foreign News Analyst AMMAN, Jordan (A')--Developments in the past 24 hours here left observers with the impression the Syrians and Egyptians are caught in a difficult squeeze of their own regarding their intentions toward Jordan. As of this moment, the government seems to have the situation fairly under control. There is no reason to believe subversive forces intend to remain inactive for long.'The squeeze has developed this way: The Syrians and Egyptians do not want to invite United States military intervention here. Already there are 2,000 British parachute "troops on hand. Any violent mani- festation here might immediately oinvite the Americans to come in; King Hussein has stated he ex- pects American help.

ADAMS: Assistant A ttacked, Defended WASHINGTON () - Sherman Adams was oriticized yesterday for intervening in a government con- tract dispute last year. He was also defended from an- other quarter as a man of in- tegrity.#( The defense of President Dwight D. Eisenhower's right-hand man came from Secretary of Commerce Sinclair Weeks. Weeks was the third cabinet member to speak for Adams since the Goldfine probe hit the front pages. Adams, Weeks said, has ac- knowledged an error in judgment in his relations with an old friend, Bernard Goldfine, the Boston tex- tile magnate. For that mistake-and where is the man who never makes a mis- take?-he has been whip-lashed more brutally than any man in public life in our generation,' Weeks said in a statement. - A short time earlier, Roswell M. Austin said he thought Adams acted improperly when he made an inquiry about a case handled by the Armed Services Board of Contract Appeals late in 1957. But Austin, a retired member of the board, added that neither Adams nor an unidentified mem- ber of Congress who also interested himself in the case swayed the board in any way. The White House has said' Adams merely relayed inquiries and replies about the case, in- volving the now defunct Raylaine Worsteds, Inc., of Manchester, N.H. Debate Set On Mid-East The "Mid-East Crisis" will be the subject of an open discussion to be held at 8 p.m. today in the third-floor conference room of the Union. Sponsored by the International Students Association, the session will be broadcast over WUOM. The session will present five speakers representing different countries, each of whom will speak for 10 minutes. The speakers are Prof. Henry L. Bretton, of the political science department, who will represent the United States, Fadhil Rassool, Grad., from Iraq and Beverley Pooley, Grad., from Great Britain. George Abisaab, Grad., from the United Arab Republic and Omesh Khanna', Grad., from India, will also be heard. The debate will then be opened to speakers from the floor. The program will conclude with a gen- eral discussion. Krishna Murthy, Grad., ISA president, will moderate the dis- cussion. West tpan' s Miad-E Condemned st Return Note To Soviets Asks Khrushchev To Complain to UN WASHINGTON (P-The West- ern allies drafted a note to Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev yes- terday challenging him to com- plain to the United Nations Se- curity Council if he believes An- glo-American military action en- dangers international peace. This was understood to be their joint answer to Khrushchev's dra- matic bid for an' immediate Big Five summit conference to con- sider the Middle East crisis. The main line of the American- British-French answer became known after President Dwight D. Eisenhower had met for 55 min- utes with Secretary of State John Foster Dulles. This was toward the end of a day of intense allied dip- lortatic activity. Avoids Specific The American-British-French answer to Khrushchev was re- ported designed to avoid any spe- cific proposal for a summit-level meeting even within the United Nations. It ruled out any thought of an immediate heads-of-government parley in Geneva today as Khrushchev had proposed. Instead, the Western allies were reported hammering hard at these two main points: Can Ask UN 1) The United Nations Security Council already is considering theI problem of American troops in Lebanon. Any country on this 11- nation group has the right to ask the Council to enlarge its work to consider other matters if it be- lieves a grave danger to worldI peace exists. This could be viewed as a chal- lenge for Khrushchev to present such accusations personally since governments can be represented at the United Nations by leaders of even the highest rank. 2) The three Western govern- ments are ready and willing to re- sume confidential talks with Mos- cow to prepare for an over-all summit conference on the great world issues. Such a broad summit parley could :nclude Middle East prob- lemr if East-West diplomats agreed. by Drafts Plan SECURITY COUNCIL MEETS-Karim Azkuol (second from left at top of table) of Lebanon ad the United Nations Security Council in the fourth day of the Mid-East debate. Karim uph country's position in requesting United Nations and United States aid in preserving its indeper mop. Thnree oareiy escaped with their lives. The fate of the four others - all Jordanians - is still not known. The dead included three Amer- * icans. , A German, Heinrich Stempel of Grevenbroich, Germany, was the fourth killed. All the victims but the four un- accounted for apparently were seized on the whim of the soldiers. The soldiers did not physically mistreat' them and even made a half-hearted effort to save them from the mob. The army officers who staged last Monday's revolution issued orders to protect foreigners. In mob demonstrations that followed the army's takeover, the British Embassy and the British Infor- mation Service and consulate were sacked. Bargain Day T To.Celebrate' 30th Birthday Ann Arbor's 30th Annual Sum- mer Bargain Day, sponsored by the Retail Merchants Association, will be held tomorrow and Thursday. The Retail Merchants Associa- tion, a division of the Ann Arbor k Chamber of Commerce has given the event a circus theme. "Merchants are trying to key everything to the 30th Anniver- sary," J. B. White, chairman of the promotional committee, said. "Many items will purposely be put in the 30 cent, $3 or $30 brackets." "Crazy bargains" will be offered, according to White. Items such as! automobiles, televisions, electric mixers and wedding dresses will be offered at abnormally low prices, such as $1Nt item for $3. Clowns, a four-piece clown* band, a calliope and antique cars will tour Ann Arbor's three main business districts in the Univer- sity, State Street and downtown areas. "We feel it will be the best Bar- gain Day, Ann Arbor has yet had," White said. "People are more price and value conscious than ever before." Stores will be open from 9 a.m. until 8:30 p.m. tomorrow and from 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Thursday. Calm Usual The calm of Amman is not often broken. When it is,. efficient gov- ernment forces know what to do abqut it. The impression persists that the Syrians and Egyptians are mark- ing time waiting for the Iraqi situation to Jell and be digested. This may give this little country sufficient breathing space to pre- pare for the next attempts on its sovereignty. It is extremely difficult to dis- cuss the situation from here for the usual reasons attendant upon recurrent crises in Mideast coun- tries. But this much seems certain -this particular crisis is going to be long and deep, for this whole Mideast area. Announcement Ominous The announcement of the visit of Sheik Sir Abdullah As Sabbah of Kuwaitt to Damascus to confer with President Gamal Abdul Nas- ser has ominous overtones. It is most likely Sheik Abdullah has been badly shaken by events in the north. Inside his country, which I visited a monthago, Nas- ser's propaganda has been power- ful. The activities of Nasser support- ers have been bearing fruit in internal ferment. Kuwaitis are outnumbered in their own country by people from other Mideastern states who imported the ferment and passed it on to Kuwaiti youth. 'U.S. Marinte BEIRUT UP) - United States Marines joined Lebanese army patrols yesterday with the aim of stopping attacks on American planes flying noncombat missions over Lebanon. Other top developments: 1) The United States was mak- ing a strong diplomatic effort to stop the Lebanese civil war through compromise measures. 2) A United States Navy spokes- man here said American forces in the Mideast have "atomic capa- bility." Tries to Ease Impact The Defense Department in Washington later sought to ease the impact of this statement, say- ing it "cannot foresee any circum- "U To Buid Auto Decks A $530,000 411-car parking structure will be built by the Uni- versity in the Medical Center area, Vice-President in Charge of Busi- ness an~d Finance Wilbur K. Pier- pont :anno'unced yesterday. To be located on Catherine St. opposite Victor Vaughan Hall and the Radiation Laboratory,' the structur~e will include five decks anid a roof for parking area. IIt is being financed through parking permit fees and revenues from parking meters. Pierpont said the parking situ- ation in the Medical Center was regarded as the most critical on the campus and that the Cather- ine St. facility was given priority for that reason. As funds become q-vailable ad- ditional parking structures are planned for other campus areas, he said. Construction is scheduled to be- gin immediately. The building should be completed no later than June, 1959, Pierpont indicated. Niiose Coi sJoin Lebanese Patro, stances requiring the use of atomic weapons" in the current Lebanese situation. The Leathernecks roved, with patrols of the. Lebanese army, to reduce rebel sniper fire on Marine guards at strategic points as well as on planes. They also took over guard duty at the British Embassy, relieving a Lebanese detail. The patrol ac- tion seemed likely to increase the Marines' contact with rebel-hld areas. Marines Fired The Marines sometimes had re- turned sniper fire in the last few days, but otherwise left counter- acdion to the Lebanese govern- ment's armed forces. Rifle and machine-gun bullets have nicked 16 American planes since the landings last week. No casualties have resulted. A rebel area is in the path of planes us- ing Beirut'. -International Air- port. Speaking of the equipment of the American forces, the Navy spokesman reported "all combat units, incauding ground, air and sea have atomic capability." Have Atomic Weapons The 6,300 Marines brought with them howitzers capable of throw- ing atomic shells about 11 miles. The Navy spokesman did not spe- cifically say they had atomi war- heads, but the implication seemed clear. The 3,100 paratroopers from West Germany also have landed heavy artillery. In Paris, Soviet sources, said there was a possibility Moscow would send troops to adjoining Syria if an emergency summit conference failed to bring a Mid- east settlement. These informants said Moscow believes the United States is build- ing up a strong base in Lebanon for an attack on Syria or the Nas- ser-allied regime in Iraq. "If the situation is not regulat- ed, there is every possibility the United Arab Republic headed by National Budget Shows Almost $3 Billion Loss WASHINGTON (AP)-Preliminary reports yesterday showed the national budget was in the red $2,813,000,000 at the end of the fiscal year last June 30. The deficit was more than five times greater than that predicted by President Dwight D. Eisenhower last January, and was blamed largely on the recession slump in individual and business earnings.
