South Palestine Bottle
Threatens Armistice

TEL AVN, Israel, Oct. is R.-
Jews and Egyptians hammered each
other in Southern Palestine today
with land and air attacks that
threatened to shatter the Holy Land
truce.
Casualties from yesterdays fight
ing are reported to be heavy.
The clashes came as the United
Nations met in Paris to consider
means OF bringing lasting peace to
Palestine.
Whether the new violence-grav-
est in three months-constitute a
mere truce fracture or resumption
of full-scale war, may be decided
by the outcome of military action in
the next IL hours.
Fighting broke out in the Negeb
where Jews and Egyptians have
been facing each other since the
truce began.
Convoy Sent Through.
The trouble apparently started
when the Jews chose the opening of
,the U. N. Palestine debate to try to
rush daylight convoy to % Jewish
settlements in the southern desert,
30 miles south of Tel Aviv.
The Egyptians who overlook the
road along the entire route pounced
on the convoy and turned it back.
Two trucks in the 16-vehicle group
were burned and several persons
killed.
Anonymous U. N. observers said
the Jews apparently sent sitting
duck convoy under Egyptian guns
as a provocative gesture to pave
the way for last nights Israeli air
force strike-back.
The terse Israeli announcement
|of Jewish bombing of Egyptian
bases in the south said following
|today's Egyptian land and air at
tacks in the Negreb, the Israeli air
force took action against Egyptian
bases. Ground clashes also fared
up in various parts of the area"
Following yesterdays emergency
blackout broadcast, all Israel and
Jewish Jerusalem went to bed in
the dark. No Arab air raids were
reported up to midnight.
