JERUSALEM, Sept. 3.-Arms

the Arabs of Palestine are pour
ing into the hands of willing
warriors these days from over
the border, out 81 hiding and
through the black market.
Complete evidence of all three
sources Of arms and ammunition
for burgeoning military movements
Is visible aplenty in Arabic quarters
Of big Palestine cities and in small
Arab villages.
Supplies now in the hands of three
separate military organizations
NaJada, FutuWah and Jawallah
(Arabic words for helpers, youth
and scouts, respectively)-are not
impressive. But supply streams are
deepening fast.
At present Najada's 5000 men are
about half armed, Futuwah's esti-
mated $4,000 about a third. What
arms Jawallah, the Moslem Brother
hoods military branch, possesses
was not learned, but they are be-
lieved to be comparatively few.
What guns there are in the hands
of the Arabs are far from the quail
ity and quantity the British Army
has been finding in the caches of
the Jewish underground. They are
mostly revolvers, few rifles and
fewer machineguns. And they are
less than half as efficient, some dat

Stocks Slump Sharply,
Losing 81 10 S12 a Share
BY the Associoted Press

NEW YORK, Sept. 3.-Stocks suf-
fered one of their sharpest slumps
of the last several years in today's
market as professionals and public
brokerage customers returned from
the long week end in a generally
bearish mood.
Leading steels, motors, rails and
industrials dropped substantially in
the forenoon, with the ticker tape
late before midday. There was then
some recovery which failed to hold
and fresh outburst of liquidation
hit the list in the fourth hour, with
pivotal issues tumbling 81 to more
than $12 a share. The recording
machinery again was behind actual
floor transactions.
Resumption of the decline, which
proceeded through the last three
months, was ascribed by brokers to
a variety Of circumstances, including
the theory that the list may have
been discounting a peak in the busi-
ness boom later this year or in 1947.

The principal source of supply ap-
pears to be Arab tribesmen living
just over the Palestine borders in

Arab sources have told this writer
in the past week of their own pur-

as the Jebel Druze and the towns of
Trans-Jordan, where private owner

The second important source is
the hiding places of guns stored by

Of revolvers and rifles are seeing the
light OF day again after being buried
when peace was restored following
the four-year rebellion.
The third and fastest increasing

This source. a trickle two months

"Smoldering hatreds, national
prejudices and a fearful reluctance
to rely upon anything but force will
not easily disappear, he asserted.
At a press conference later, the
Chief of Staff called for revival OF
the quality of ''old-fashioned patri-

above everything else"
United States influence in the

Truck Strike Ties Up
Deliveries Of Food
In New York City
Employers OfficioI Soys
Some One Let Mayor
Down on Promise
BY the Assoeioted Press

NEW YORK, Sept. 3.-A strike
of an estimated $4,000 truck
drivers seeking higher wages
halted deliveries of foods and
other commodities in New York
today in what an operators
spokesman called a complete
stoppage.
Arthur G. McKeever, president OF
the Motor Carriers Association OF
New York, said the tieup caused
by the action of Local 807 of the
AFL International Brotherhood OF
Teamsters was about 100 per cent.
Joseph Mccarthy, chairman OF the
unions negotiating committee, esti-
mated that 100000 persons were
made idle by the dispute which the
union calls lockout"
This 100000 includes our own
members, members of two other New
York and two New Jersey locals
and large number of warehouse
men, garagemen, maintenance men
and Office workers in establishments
involved in this dispute" he said.
Confers With Mayor.
Joseph M. Adelizzi, chairman OF
the Employers Wage Committee
went to City Hall today for a con-
ference with Mayor William
ODwyer at the Mayors invitation.
"The Mayor said that foodstuffs
will move" Mr. Adelizzi said before
going into the conference. "Ap-
parently somebody has let him
down."
Delivery vans failed to roll from
the warehouses of the Great At
lantic g. Pacific Tea Co. warehouses
in the Bronx and Queens. Drivers
said that trucks were loaded with
nonperishable goods in violation
OF q previous agreement to move
only perishables.
Police predicted other food chains
would be similarly affected.
Mayor ODwyer had given assur-
ances earlier that the city would not
lack food or medical supplies.
Embargoes in Effect.
The American Association Of Rail-
roads embargoed many shipments
into New York to prevent congestion
of supplies at warehouses and
sidingS.
The strike technically began at
midnight Saturday with the expira-
ton OF contract between motor
carriers and the AFL international
Brotherhood Of Teamsters, but be-
cause of the Labor Day holiday
week end its effects were not felt
Immediately.
Employer representatives, who
have rejected a wage formula recon-
mended by the Mayor for settling
the strike, did not attend yesterdays s
meeting The O'Dwyer plan was
based on an 1874 cents an hour
wage increase, 40-hour week in
stead Of the. present 44-hour, and
changes in overtime and vacation
provisions. Drivers have asked for
a 80 per cent rise over present pay
schedules of from $3.50 to $64,
while operators offered a fiat s.
q week increase.

British Seize Vessel
Carrying 1900 Jews
Illegally 10 Palestine
Immigrants Transferred
To Transport for Trip
To Cyprus Detention
BY the Associoted Press

JERUSALEM, Sept. 3.-The
400-ton ship Four Freedoms,
crowded with 1000 Jews seeking
to enter Palestine Illegally, ar
rived at Haifa early today in
tow of a British destroyer which
intercepted her last night off
Tel Aviv:
The Jewish immigrants were
transferred to the transport Empire
Haywood today for the trip to
Cyprus. where they will be de-
tanned.
Interception of the ship was ac-
companied by a brief fight between
the immigrants and a naval board
ing party during which several
British sailors were injured, the
British government announced.
Shortly after the vessel dropped
anchor between two destroyers just
outside the Haifa breakwater naval
engineers set up barbed wire rum
ways on the, docks for processing
the immigrants. Barges swarmed
around the anchored craft.
Just before noon one Of the flank
ing destroyers left the immigrant
ship and wheeled into formation
with cruiser and two other destroy
ers deployed outside the breakwater.
Two planes circled overhead.
A series of depth charges doomed
across the bay for about Is minutes
and Haifa residents expressed be-
lief that the bombs were being
dropped ito discourage the ships
passengers from attempting to swim
ashore"
The ship was first sighted about
IS miles off Tel Aviv. but was not
interfered with until she entered
Palestine coastal waters.
Fighting developed when the
British destroyer ChilderS dis
patched boarding party to inspect
the vessel and the immigrants re-
sisted, the British government an
nounced. During the melee at least
a dozen of the immigrants leaped
over the side, apparently with the
intention of swimming to shore"
the announcement said.
1t did not disclose their fate or
whether any of the immigrants had
been injured in the fighting.
The vessel was the first to arrive
in Palestine waters with load of
illegal immigrants since the British
announced that all Jews attempting
to enter the Holy Land without
proper admission certificates would
be deported to Cyprus.
Palestine sources who could not
be identified said the ship probably
was the first of new group of YES
sells now en- route to Palestine.
1t was believed that the immi-
grants had hoped to effect a landing
somewhere near the all-Jewish city
of Tel Aviv, where some 300 Euro
pean refugees were successfully
smuggled ashore several weeks ago.

Addressing delegates to the con-

Also calling for unification of the

Aside from military operations, he
