LAKE SUCCESS, N. Y, Feb. 2s.-
Diplomatic language was forgotten
today as some of the younger
generation had their say at United
Nations headquarters.
The occasion was meeting OF
children from 26 countries to dis
cuss the problem of hungry children
throughout the world, and what can
be done to relieve their distress.
A typical remark was that of a
15-year-old American girl, Barbara
Diggs, who said:
THE United States should stop
trying to be the big cheese"
She was talking about United
States aid to other countries. The
United States, she said, should not
try to be superior in giving help
to others and should not insist on
having its relief contributions
Identified as coming from America.
She said this was the best way
to lay the foundation for perma-
nent peace.

|Emissary Of AbduIlat
Denies He Is Seeking
Deal on Palestine
By Not Borrows
spseiol Dispatch to The s.ar and
The chiease Daily News

LAKE SUCCESS, N. r., Feb. 28
"A 2s-year-old Arab insurance
salesman from Palestine, whose
father was killed as a political re-
prisal, is today's leading man in
the intrigue revolving about Pales-
tine partition.
He is as slick and smooth in ap-
pearance as camels tongue. He
wears a striped tie of the kind af-
fected by Whitehall. He. speaks
excellent English.
This is the man, Omar Dajany by
name, who slipped 50 quietly into
United Nations headquarters on
February 10 and talked with U. N.
officials in the interests OF King
Abdullah of Trans-Jordan.
He presented a letter signed by
King Abdullah's chamberlain and
he discussed-among other things
Trans-Jordan's chances for getting
U. N. membership.
Talks to Correspondents.
Last night he came back-and,
now, the mystery deepens.
|, He called together so U. N. cor
respondents and he talked.
No, no, he explained smoothly, he
has no mission in the United States
except to see what he can do about
getting American recognition for
Trans Jordan and, at the same
time, to pave the way for U. N.
membership for his friends across
the Jordan.
Palestine partition and King
Abdullah's ambitions toward the
Arab state planned by the U. N?
No, he has nothing to do with that.
But what Mr.. Dajany really was
leading up to was chance to say
a few nasty things about the Grand
Muftis Arab higher committee.
A significant pattern then began
to emerge. He clearly does not sup
port the Multi. He Is bitter about
his fathers murder. He certainly
has a mission of some kind from
King Abdullah.
BY simple analysis, 1t would ap-
pear something more than he says.

as King Abdullah would hardly send

u. 5. Stand Reveals
Jews Now Must Deal
With Arabs On Own
By WoIIoee R. Deuel.

The United States will indorse
any solution of the Palestine prob
lem. which the Arabs and Jews In
the Holy Land itself can agree on,
1t was learned here yesterday.
Washington will not indorse any
other kind of a proposed solution,
1t was also learned.
Moreover, the United States will
oppose any attempt to bring pres
sure to bear through the United
Nations to impose any solution of
the Palestine problem which either
the Arabs or Jews in the Holy Land
reject.
U. N. Lacks Authority.
Thus the Jews in Palestine will
be pretty strictly on their own in
dealing with the Arabs of the Holy
Land from now on, as far as the
United States is concerned.
The U. N. has no authority to call
for the use of pressure or force in
Palestine to maintain peace and
order among the peoples of the
Holy Land itself in Washington's S
official view.
1t can only recommend action in
case there is "a threat to, or breach
of" international peace and secur-
ity.
Conflict betN cen Palestinian
Arabs and Palestinian Jews might
not constitute any danger to world
peace and security, 1t is argued
here.
Breach Of Peace Possible.
However, armed Intervention In
Palestine by outside powers-by
neighboring Arab states, for ex-
ample, or by anybody else-would
constitute a breach of international
peace and security.
Therefore, If this should happen
the United States would be pre-
pared to consider the possibility of
joining in any action under. the
U. N. charter for preserving world
peace which other members would
be prepared to take.
Under no circumstances, however,
could such action be exploited to
bring even idirect pressure to bear
for imposing any solution of the
Arab-Jewish problem in Palestine
which either side opposed.

I'VE know very we'll" the editorial
continued, that a majority Of the
Communist Party in Yugoslavia
stands firmly for friendship with the
Communist parties of other coun-
tries and for friendship with the
U. S. S. r. and its Communist Party.
I'VE also know that a majority of
the Yugoslav Communist Party does
not approve of the Nationalists
policy Of the Tito group. We know
that just because of this it is being
subjected to cruel repressions from
Tito and his agents"
This strongly tends to indicate
that the policy of the Moscow-Ied
Cominform toward Tito is not going
to change. There was speculation
after the recent death of Col. Gen
Andrei A. zhdanov that there might
be such change. Gen. Zhdanov
was one of the founders of COMM

denounce Tito. Reports abroad had
lit that the Yugoslav reaction to the

.YugosIav Authorities
Report Pig Seizures
Exceed Expectations
BY the Assoeiofed Press

BELGRADE, Yugoslovia, Sept. g.
-Yugoslav authorities announced
today their forced purchase of pigs
from rich peasants was completed
IN many places in one day. They
said many local committees had
taken more than 10 per cent over
The number they expected to get.
The officials said the nationwide
operation went off smoothly and
with little trouble from the peasants
The peasants were given a small
amount of money and coupons with
which they could buy industrial
products at low prices. Each was
allowed to keep two or three pigs
Marshal Tito's commissars turned
the seized pigs over to state owned
farms and peasants co-operatives.
Many people coming into Belgrade
yesterday from the rich farm
country Of Vojvodina and Serbia
said the peasants there were "seeth-
ing" over the raids. The seizures
began Monday and will continue
through Friday.
The official reason given for the
raids was that the rich peasants,
the 'Kulaks," were hiding the pigs
and not selling the required quotas
to the government. They were
charged with "speculating and sa-
botaging the economy"
Borba, the Communist Party
newspaper, said there had been some
failure by the Federal Ministry of
Trade and Supply to make pre-
scribed collections and the govern
ment had been unable to supply
the needed ration of meats to work
erS.
The government did not say what
price they would pay for the pigs.
Reports from the peasants said it
would amount to only one-tenth of
what they could get on the free
market, where the price of pork and
fat ranges from 81 to So pound,
Reports have been growing in the
last few weeks that peasants have
once again taken individual meas
ures of passive resistance against
the Communist program of enforced
buying and selling.
The raids may be another move
by the Tito government to prove the
error of Cominform charges that
the Communists were being too easy
with the peasants and were permit
ting capitalistic elements to thrive.
