 Backed by National Assembly vote of 35l to l96. confirming him as Premier, Queuille sought to form a new Centrist Government.
 He offered the nation financial policy along the same general lines as his two predecessors. Andre Marie and Robert Schuman. The same policies caused the downfall of the two governments.
 To adherents of Gen. Charles de Gaulle, the Premier rendered a vague promise to consider the gen. eral elections which they are de- manding. He said the question of elections will be taken up with the Assembly after the country's finan- cial difficulties are solved.

to coincide with similar crossings
of the frontier by Egyptian, Iraqi,
Syrian and Lebanese regulars.
Some Trans-Jordan legionnaires
already were in Palestine. They
served In police capacity under
British command before Britain
ended her mandate.
An official Legion spokesman said
he knew of no clashes between
Legionnaires and Jews in the past
"a hours.
Newsmen Get Headdresses.

respondents, including Americans,
British and Egyptians, received uni
forms and kafiyeh headdresses.
These were donned FOR the trip from
Amman to Jericho after dawn to-
day.
| AS they have for weeks, legion
! flags flew over the Allenby Bridge
and Jericho. Nothing seemed
changed from the last days of the
British mandate except that the
Arab population of Jericho now is
at highly emotional and optimistic
pitch.
Legion conveys showed excellent
march discipline. Breakdown trucks
quickly took care of any vehicles
which became stranded. A detach-
ment of Red Crescent ambulances
was in the last convoy passing
! through Jericho before noon.
Some foreign observers expressed
belief the world might find the
long threatened Arab invasion al
most an anticlimax, since the avail
able information is that regular
armies at this time are taking what
might be called defense line for
the dominantly Arab parts of Pales-
tine.
Breathing Spell Seen.
These observers said breathing
spell might follow, affording the
United Nations new chance to
attempt an agreement on the Holy
Lands future
The danger obviously present Is
that the commanders of either Ha-
CANA or of foreign Arab forces
might precipitate general conflict.
An Arab Legion spokesman in
a statement to newsmen yesterday
described Kfar Etzion, Jewish set
tlement south of Jerusalem, as "a
Jewish strong point which fired
upon legion forces attempting to
comply with the British order to
evacuate Palestine before the end
of the mandate, and which conse-
quently was lquidated May 49,"
He said the Jews maintained
many such Hagana garrisons
athwart lines of communications
within the United Nations parti-
ktionr frontier for-sthe a Arab state.

tackled in operations short OF war.

Licensing Of District
Auto Mechanics Urqed

Charles w. Reed. supervising in
spector, Department of Vehicles and
Traffic, yesterday advocated the
licensing of all automobile me-
chanics in the District so that car
repair work can be made more de-
pendable.
Mr. Reed said the District licenses
BARRIERS, beauticians. plumbers and
number of other trades and there
is great need for licensing of auto
mobile mechanics because a car that
has been improperly serviced can
cause property damage and in many
cases death.
