ing.
The state of Israel will defend
itself from this wanton and un-
provoked aggression" DR.. Eliash
said. but it has the right to expect
immediate action by the organs OF
the United Nations, whose duty ii
is to maintain international peace
and prevent acts of aggression"
DR.. Eliash appeared before the
council as a representative of the
Jewish Agency for Palestine, which
was officially recognized under the
old British mandate.
u. N. Charter Cited.
He cited Articles Al and AZ OF the
U. N. Charter. These provide for
the Security Council, on finding a
threat to peace exists or acts Of ag-
gression have been committed, to
break economic and diplomatic re-
lations with convicted aggressor
If these are inadequate, the council
may take such action by air, sea or
land forces as may be necessary to
restore peace.
Thus far, however, disagreements
between Russia and the four other
ma jor powers have stalled attempts
to form a U. N. armed force.
DR.. Eliash said Egyptian aircraft
have bombed Tel-Aviv and units OF
the Egyptian Army have attacked
and wiped out Jewish village IN
southern Palestine,
The Egyptian government In

consent of the people of Palestine

the Pfesident's recognition action
reached the White House yesterday
morning and Mr.. Ross said they
were very heavily" in favor Of the

5. Mr.. Ross described recognition
as consistent with earlier Truman
policies on Palestine. These had
ranged from support for United
Nations plan for partition Of the
Holy Land to creation Of U. N.
trusteeship over the area. The
trusteeship plan was q temporary
measure, Mr.. Ross said, and Mr..
Truman had all along favored par
tition.
Relation to Partition Cited.
Trusteeship failed to 60 through
the United Nations General Assem-

fore the British gave UP their man
date over Palestine. Then, Mr.. Ross
said. it was, in the words of Sena-
tor Vandenberg, Republican, of
Michigan, logical and proper" that
the new Jewish state should be
recognized.
The formal request for recogni-
ton which Mr.. Truman received
from Mr.. Epstein was released by
Mr.. Ross. It stressed the relation
ship which the Jewish government
claims between the creation of the
new state and the partition rec
ommendation made by the General
Assembly last December.
IT have the honor to notify you,'
Mr.. Epstein wrote the President,
that the state of Israel has been
proclaimed as an independent re-
public within the frontiers approved
by the General Assembly of the
United Nations in its resolution of
November 20, 1947, and that pro-
visional government has been
charged to assume the rights and
duties of government for preserving
law and order within the boundaries
of Israel. for defending the state
against external aggression and for
discharging the obligations of
Israel to the other nations of the
world. in accordance with interna-
tional law"

15tassen Drives Hard
To Make Up Ground
On Dewey in Oregon
Nv the A.soeio,ed Press

PORTLAND, Greg. May 15.-
Harold Stassen few $50 miles today
trying to make up ground on Gov
Dewey Of New York in their Oregon
presidential primary battle.
He is driving hard to cover the
same route the New York Governor
has followed in a more leisurely
two-week bus tour. The Minnesotar
spoke in six widely separated cities
today from the California border
north to Washington and east
| to Idaho.
Meanwhile, Gov. Dewey continued
his bus campaign into the only Sec
ton of the State not previously
visited-the Northern Coast. He
made handshaking stops at eight
points with Asoria his major city
for the day.
Prepare For Debate.
Both candidates were to be back
in Portland tonight in preparation
for Monday nights % pm, EST
radio debate.
Gov. Dewey's Sunday schedule was
open: Mr.. Stassen was booked for a
Republican women's reception and a
chat with grange leaders.
The debate will be carried over the
Mutual and ABC networks. Wheth-
er the two other major nets also
would carry the one-hour studio
debate on whether communism
should be outlawed, still was un-
certain.
Un Washington, none OF the
major stations reported arrange
ments had been completed to
carry the broadcast. The Mutual
st6tion in Washington is VOL
and WMAL is the ABC outlet)
Mr.. Stassen will take the affirma-
tive in the debate on outlawing the
Communist Party. Today at Eugene,
where he spent three hours on the
University of Oregon campus and
spoke at the city park, Mr.. Stassen
said he was sorry the debate would
not be extended to other issues.
Calls Issue Paramount.
Gov. Dewey. in accepting the
challenge, declared the question of
outlawing communism was para
mount. He said he had made it the
issue in his appeal for support in
Oregon's May 81 Republican presi-
Dental primary.
After the debate Gov. Dewey's
campaign will quiet down. He has
nothing booked tor Tuesday, will
visit few lower Willamette Valley
towns Wednesday, and again has
nothing on tap Thursday, the day
before election.

Jews Top Of 10000
By the AssoeIoted Press

Arab League Nations opposing
the new Zionist state of Irael claim
to have armies of combined
strength of 10000 men almost two
and a half times as many as the
Jews now have under arms.
However, most Middle East OBJ
servers believe the Jews are in a
position to use their entire military
force while the Arab countries are
not. '-'-.
In some capitals of the Arab
states there are rumors of rivalries
between the leaders of the various
countries. Large portions Of the
Arab armies are needed for policing
duties at home.
The Jewish Agency says Hagana,
the army of Israel. has fighting
force of $4,000 to 10000. The Jews
also expect Hagana to be reinforced
in time by the arrival of young Jews
from the displaced persons camps Of
Europe.
Unofficial Arab sources have given
the following summary of Arab
strength in regular armed forces:
Egypt-lOO,0O0 troops with some
units mechanical; small air force.
Trans -Jordan-10, 900 to 5000 men
in the Arab Legion.
Iraq-40,0o0 troops poorly mech
anized~ but with some airpower.
Syria-15,000 troops with some
mobile units.
