CBy The Associated Press

t6y The ASSOcldteu freSS)
 The British threatened Palestin- ian Arabs and Jews today with severe measures unless they end ed the communal strife which has resulted in l27 deaths in the Holy Land and 255 in the whole Middle East since the United Nations voted to partition the mandate
 Foreign Minister Fadhil Jamali of Iraq said in New York, a "gen- eral struggle" would begin in Pal estine when the British, who sur render their mandate May IS, pull out in August.
 ''Plans are being made over there now for the fight" he said, referring apparently to the Arab League meeting in Cairo. The Arab league leaders were talking of holy war and invasion of Pal estine by armies of the seven near by Arab states when the British leave.
 Foreign minister Faisal Al Saud of Saudi Arabia said in Cairo he personally would hate to attend any further meetings of the United Nations"
 Arabs attacked Gevulot in the southern Palestinian desert and killed six Jews. Police drove them off. An Arab house in Karatiya was blown up and four Arabs were killed. Two heavy explosions jared Haifa. An uneasy calm set tied over the Tel Aviv-Jaffa bor- der battle area where the British imposed curfew.
 Palestine property losses in the II days of riots were estimated at $1O,OOO,OOO.
 Gen. Sir Alan Cunningham, high commissioner of Palestine, issued the warning to the oppos- ing factions but did not disclose the nature of the severe measures he had in mind.

WASHINGTON, (P)-U. S. pro- duction of gold increased II per cent during October-chiefly be- cause of a gain attributed to Alas ka-and silver output rose per cent because of a production spurt in Idaho, the bureau of mines said today.
 Of the months gold output of 215,O87 fine ounces, Alaska was credited with 72,5OO. However, the bureau pointed out, Alaska's fig ures are on mint and smelter receipt rather than a mine basis, so that seasonal movements show up tardily in monthly reports. Alaska's actual mine production probably declined during October.

Third Party DANGER

disasters caused by rule or ruin

parties, it meant a split with a
third party in the field. All such in
cidents led to disaster for the party
involved, with no possible chance
for the election of a third party
ticket. 1t now looks as though the
Democratic party may face such a
split next year. The followers of
Henry Wallace demand the nominal
ton of their favorite, or else. Wal
lace on third party ticket will in
sure the election of a Republican

political seer to see that result.
