Committee on Palestine neared the
end of its investigations and pre-
pared to draft its report, it appeared
almost certain today that majority
of the delegates would recommend
some form of partition of the Holy
Land.
A reliable informant close to the
committee said seven of the II men,
bers were likely to support partition,
although some might express reser-
vations in the economic field.
The main body of the committee
Is awaiting the reports of subcom-
mittees which toured displaced per-
son camps In Germany and Austria
Leading advocates of partition
among the committee members, 1t
was understood, are Prof. Enrique
Rodriguez Fabregat of Uruguay and
DR.. Jorge Garcia Granados OF Qua

The informant said Prof. Fabregat
submitted to the committee last
week a plan for partition of Pales-
tine into Jewish and Arab states
with provision for plebiscites in both
states after about 10 years. He said
other members objected to details
of the plan, but only two or three

Jews in Austria Expected
To Attack British Aooin

VIENNA. Aug. is (P.-A compe.
tent American military source sale
tonight that United States authori-
ties were thoroughly convinced
that the recent bombings of q
British leave train and Sacher's
Hotel in Vienna were "only the
beginning of Jewish underground
activities against the British In
Austria.
The informant, an American
officer helping the investigation OF
the train bombing near Mallnitz
last Tuesday, said American au-
thorities had been tipped in ad-
vance, and we're able to arrest
Gosior Henoch, Polish Jew anc
suspected leader of the bomb group
although unable to prevent the
actual attack on the train.
He said the Americans were con-
vinced the attacks were the work
of Irgun Zvai Leumi, Jewish under
ground organization. He believed
that future attacks would be CEN
tered against British troops passing

Boy Runs Away
Five Times in Day
| To See Country
By The Associated Press

WEEHAWKEN, N. j., Aug. 16.-
Ten-year- old Lester Sweeney, jr.
was determined to see the country
so he ran away five times last night
and today-four times within an
hour.
He was picked up at the West
Shore Terminal by railroad police
last night for his father, Lester
Sweeny of New York, and turned
over to Weehawken police. A fam
lily friend, Robert van Dyke came
to police headquarters for him. The
pair were to return to New York or
a ferry.
Lester scampered away from the
pier, and by the time Robert caught
him, one ferry had departed.
Lester fled from the second boat
and by the time Robert had recap
tured him the boat had left.
He missed two more boats by flee.
ing his escort at the strategic
moment.
The fourth time, he attempted te
climb the New Jersey palisades. He
reached a ledge a hundred feet
above the road, then couldn't go ur
or down. Patrolman Patrick Brady
rescued him.

hover remarked that about all
know Is what I saw in the papers.
He recalled that he was in Italy
last October inspecting the 88th Di-
vision but did not go down to the
southern region where Gen. Lee hao
his headquarters.
II saw no conditions such as are
described now he declared. They
weren't living in the lap of luxury
but I found that the troops morale
was high. That was 10 months ago
What has happened since then
don't know. But wouldn't imagine
there ',ad been much ccange.'
Y. ont Wait for Congress.
Gen. Eisenhower made no refer
ence to suggestions from some
sources that Congress should inves-
tigate the matter. He stated al
Fort Lewis, Washington, last Friday
that I'VE won't have to wait for
Congress to investigate"
His only comment along that line
here was that the investigation will
be made, not merely in justice to
Gen. Lee and in accordance with his
request but because we would in
vestigate in any event"
Gen. Eisenhower also said that
during the two-week trip north OF
the Arctic Circle and as far out in
the Aleutians as Adak he had not
missed day of flying because OF
inclement weather. He had a deep
"sunburn" which developed during
