JERUSALEM, Dec. 23-British
Tommies fought today against
Arabs who attacked highway
traffic north Of Jerusalem, and
Arab bullets raked a Jewish fu-
neral procession on the sacred
Mount of the Ascension.
A green -turpaned Arab in green
slipover sweater led the highway
attackers in wild exchange OF
! fire with a British convoy, army
sources said. The convoy blasted
hillsides above Bah ell Wad, from
which attackers bullets wounded a
Swedish journalist and eight Jews
this morning.
At Haifa, meanwhile, British
forces brought to port a two
masted refugee schooner carrying
about, $50 -visaless Jewish immi-
grants. They were Immediately
transferred to British transport
for transfer to detention camps on
Cyprus. Sick passengers and rela-
tives, 26, in all, were allowed to re-
main in Palestine.
British Officer Wounded.
Arab casualties were unknown in
the highway duel in which one
British officer was wounded. Army

attackers position with 10000
rounds.

the Jewish Agency Executive. was
reported to have been passenger

The funeral procession on the
Mount of the Ascension for Robert
Give Stern, Englishborn Jewish
journalist who was killed Sunday
by Arab bullets, was marked by an
attack of snipers, some situated
on the Mount of olives. Many cars
turned back under the fire as the
procession neared the Jewish ceme-
terry, hard by an Arab village.
Arab bands roamed the country
side, attacking freight trains as
well as road traffic Arabs sized
five-car cargo of cement in one
attack last night. A second train
was held up this morning, but Of
ficials said the attackers left empty

/ Traffic Virtually at Standstill.
Traffic inside Palestine was at
virtual standstill as Arabs and
Jews took potshots at each other in
villages and along the highways
and byWays.
| One Jew was killed in sniping
duel between the Jewish WALLACE OF
Bat Yam and Arab Yahelia in a
continuation of fighting which
started yesterday. The villages lie
south of Jaffa.
The death boosted to 305 the
number of persons killed in the
Holy Land since Arab rage at the
United Nations decision to parti-
ton Palestine began to manifest
itself on November 80, the day after
partition was voted.
A Swedish neWspaperman was
wounded and Associated Press Cor
respondent James M. Long mar
rowly escaped being hit when Arab
snipers raked highways leading
into Jerusalem from the north.
