JAMBOREE CITY, MOISsON,
France, Aug. 11.-Three things are
making the world Boy Scout jam
boree a sure-fire hotbed of interna-
tional good will-curiosity about
strange customs, pride in ones own,
and above all love of swapping for
souvenirs.
The English-speaking boys have
entered into the swapping so eagerly
that change" more or less as pro-
nounced in English, has become to-
day the international boys word
here linking free trade and good will.
Leaders of the American con-
tingent were more than satisfied.
They laid plans today for each of
their boys to make at least 10
speeches when he got home, to
school, church and other groups. II
the audiences average so, more than
half a million Americans are going
to hear somebody imbued with jam
boree spirit.
AS a result Of the changes" boys
in this vast tent city not only have
got used to seeing foreign fellow
scouts walk by in North African
fezzes, French berets, Swiss or Fin
nish skull caps. Czecho repose hats
on Hindu turbans-but it's usually
the strangest looking one whom they
are most anxious to make friends
with for a swap.
The 200 Hungarian scouts whom
Russian authorities finally allowed
to come here were proud to find
themselves surrounded everywhere
on their first full day yesterday
by boys Of all nations openly admir-
ing their white-plumed hats.

Veto Of Subsidy Plan
Seen as Blow 10
Small Metal Mines
BY the Associoted Press

President Truman's veto of the
metal mine premium price plan
legislation undoubtedly will bring
economic repercussions in the West
ern area where most of the copper,
lead and zinc is produced.
How serious the disturbance may
be and how long 1t will take. the
mining industry to recover is un.
predictable.
Sponsors of the legislation, first
introduced by Representative Rus.
sell, Republican. of Nevada claimed
that hundreds" of small mines
would be affected. +,
These enterprises. handicapped
during normal times by high operat-
ing costs, were stimulated first by
the wartime demand for the stra-
tegic minerals. /:
The demand for copper, lead and
zinc continued, even after the war.
as the construction and building in
dustries began to try to catch Up on
orders backed up during the war
period.
Under the plan, through a com.
plicated cost accounting procedures
hlgh-cost producers were given Gov.
ernment aid aimed at equalizinc
their returns with those of low-cosE
producers
While most beneficiaries were
small operators, some big concerns.
like Anaconda Copper Mining Co.,
qualified for aid. Anaconda's mile<
deep copper properties at Butte.
Mont, are high-cost operations. :
The Bureau of Mines objected to
Mr.. Russell's bill, which would have
given the plan permanent status.
but acquiesced, somewhat reluc~
family, in the bill by Representative.
Allen, Republican, of Illinois, which
was substituted for the Russell legr
islation late in the past session and
which the President vetoed.
Tom Campbell, acting director Of
the Bureau of Mines, told a reporter
he thought the Federal aid would
be rapidly eaten up by wage de-
mands; that the s35,O00,0 900 which
Congress proposed to make available
would be exhausted before the end
of the two-year extension period
and that efforts probably would be
made in Congress next session to
extend the subsidy offer to pro-
ducers of all strategic and critical
materials.

Police Recover Cash
Quickly After HoIdup
|0f Jerusalem Bank
BY HE Associoted Press

JERUSALEM, Aug. II. Five
youths and a girl who said I'VE are
from the Jewish undergrodnd'
robbed small Jewish savings bank
in central Jerusalem today of several
hundred dollars, which police recov-
cred OH capturing one of the bandits.
Four Jews and an Arab died in Tel
Ayiv as result of a shooting attack
on crowded suburban restaurant
last night Ten Jews were wounded.
Police said the attackers were Arabs.
Hagana, the underground Jewish
defense army" asserted in COM
munique:
"The hand of Hagana will reach
these murderers and their helpers
and they will be punished accord
tngly. We will restrain ourselves
from acts which are in accordance
with the will of the Mufti and his
consorts. Many demand that Ha-
CANA revenge this manslaughter, but
1t Is our duty not to forget that
many of our enemies are interested
in bloodshed between Jews and
Arabs in Palestine"
Apprehended on Stairway.
Four of the Jerusalem bank rob-
bers and the girl escaped. The cap
tured bandit was apprehended carry
ing cash down a stairway from the
bank, which was above coffee shop
on Ben Yehuda street. Police said
he carried pistol and grenade.
Office workers summoned police
The robbers had forced the bank
manager to open the cash box after
herding employees and customers
into corner. Their leader as
serted in Hebrew to the manager
I'VE will return any private saw
ings. Whoever informs police will
be killed"
The Jewish agency spokesman
termed the Tel Aviv killings "das-
tardly murders, undoubtedly the
direct result of the governments
weakness to trace and catch such
bandits and punish them to the full
extent of the law"
Tension Increasing.
DR.. HusSein F. Khalidi, member
OF the Arab Higher Executive, said
the circumstances of the attack was
not clear. but that tension is in
creasing on three sides-British,
Jews and Arabs"
The raiders, whom Jewish in
formants said were clad in military
uniforms, fed into nearby Arab
owned farmlands after the shooting,
repeatedly taking with them an un-
determined amount of money seized
during the attack.
Observers speculated that the last
foray might have been intended as
retaliation for raid which the
Jewish underground organization
Hagana carried out two months ago
on an Arab coffee house at Fega,
near Petah Tiqva (Tikvah). Two
Arabs were killed and seven wounded
in that raid, which Hagana said was
made to halt Arab attacks on Jewish
settlements.
The scene of last nights bloodshed
was the Hawaii Garden Cafe, a
Jewish-owned dance hall on the
banks of the Yarkon River.
Jewish described the shooting as
the biggest Arab-Jewish clash since
the Arab uprising of 1886 and ex-
pressed fear that it might lead to
still more serious incidents
