MOBILIZATION BY
HAGANAH GAINING
ADDED MOMENTUM

Jerusalem. (JPS-Palcor) - The
steadily deteriorating security sit
uation in Palestine last week
spurred the Jewish mobilization
and saw the extension of the pol
icy of "active defense" against
Arab gang attacks and Britain'S
one-sided neutrality"
Haganah, Jewish defense or
ganization, extended its new "ac-
tive defense" program with light
ming attacks on Arab highway
traffic which hitherto has been
permitted to carry on as usual.
CAS- long as all Palestine roads
are not re-opened for free, un-
hindered Jewish traffic we will
give Arab traffic no respite"
Haganah broadcast said.
The mobilization of Jewish
youth was speeded up with the
announcement that examinations
and graduation from all Jewish
secondary schools and teachers
seminaries will be advanced three
months this year in order to re-
lease students earlier for national
service.

police forces. The British atti-
tude, however, was disclosed in
a recent London report that be-
cause there is an Arab minority
of As percent in the proposed
Jewish state, there could be no
Jewish militia, (countered by the
Jewish Agency that As percent is
a shallow sophistry).
Moshe Shertok, the head of the
Political Department of the Jew
ish Agency, told the Commission
that an international police force
would be a deterrent to any con-
templated Arab uprising, that it
would impress the Arabs with the
fact that the U.N. is determined
to carry out the partition scheme.
The major points of the anti
partition conspiracy are:

Pro Football Leagues Still At

Philadelphia, Dec. 2l-(AP)-
The Pro football war continued
today with the National Football

rejecting peace at any price.

But the AAC representatives
had their own ideas of how to
solve the-three-year grid war that
has forced many clubs in both

Mcbride and Ben Lindheimer,
owner of the AAC Los Angeles
Dons, told reporters after last

proposed two circuits composed

Last Contest
For Locals
Before Holiday

The Yellow Jackets of Roanoke
Rapids High School will call a
halt to their Christmas vacation
tonight long enough to journey
to Bethel for a return basketball
engagement with the Bethel
High School teams.
Bethel, by virtue Of a 47-35 VIC
tory in Roanoke Rapids last week
in varsity contest, will be favor
ed to repeat their performance
tonight on the Bethel home court.
Coach Marvin Woodland of the
Jackets said a couple of days
ago the Jackets seemed on their
way toward solving the mystery
of Bethel's point-getting in the
first meeting of the two teams
but were unable to overcome the
visitors lead. He said the jack
cts will probably revert to more
stringent defensive measures to-
night in a effort to hand the Be-
thel boys their second defeat Of
the young season.
Coach Walter Latham's quint-
ct displayed an aggressive br md

the Jackets in their first meet
ing in a game filled with penalty
shots for both sides. Until they
ran a foul Of the same Needham
Byoughton team from Raleigh
which handed Roanoke Rapids
a 1926 pasting Friday night, the
Bethel boys had an undefeated
season.
Coach Woodland will probably
start James Warren and Earl
Rock at forwards. Tommy Wheel
err at center and Sonny Hines and
Billy Clemmer at guards, the
same five who have started most
Of the Jacket games 80 far.
The Jackets will relax for a
few days OF Christmas after to-
nights jaunt to Bethel, but they
are expected to be back on the
hardwood courts by early next
week getting the kinks out for
the beginning Of the real" sea-
son next week when play starts
in the Northeastern Conference.

games were all listed as "prac-
tice" affair: and will not count

ings are concerned.

Speaker Predicts
City Expansion

There is going to be greater
Kennewick, whether it becomes
part of the present corporation
limits or develops as a separate
municipality. This prediction was
made Thursday by A. j. Vogel,
acting secretary for the Associa-
ton of Washington Cities, in a
speech to the Kennewick Chamber
TO Commerce.
To Vogel's way of thinking,
the important consideration is
whether the growth will be Of a
hodge-podge variety, or whether
It will come in an orderly way.
His answer: City and area
planning.
Now, said Vogel, is the time to
plan for the growth that will
come. Neither shoe-string expan-
sion, nor an iron ring around the
city, inhibiting its natural devel-
opment, are desirable.
He referred to the program
now under way, in which cities,
counties and the state are all using
the same standards for charting
future growth. The survey will
aid in determining the proper al
location of publicfunds, discover
who is actually paying the tax
bill, and guide planners in build
ing the most essential improv-
mentS first, he said.
There's a difference, he pointed
cut, between permanent improv-
ments and day to day expendi-

serted, "you pay for, and others
YOU buy"
With thousands of new resi-
dents arriving i'm the west, the
state must speed up a road-buy-
ing program, that in Vogels opin-
ION, must result in increased gas
and auto taxes, unavoidable as
population pressures force expen-
ditureS.
During his talk, Vogel praised
the city administration for their
wise administration Of the funds
at their Disposal. He described
the Kennewick grape festival, also
as an event that focused favorably
on the entire state Of Washington,
