/, to stop "massacres" raging there
and to put IN end. to murder and
torture OF Arabs by Zionist terrorist
gangs.
The council met less than "a hours
after the special u. N. Assembly on
Palestine had adjourned. The major
action Of that assembly was to. Ap-
prove appointment Of q u. N, medi-
ator who will try to settle the
Jewish-Arab troubles In Palestine.
Egypt Gives First Notice.
Egypt's notice Of military action
apparently was the first so far re-
iceiyed by the United Nations from
any Of the seven members Of the
Arab League, all Of whom have
declared opposition to any Jewish
state in Palestine.
Dated today, the note informed
the president OF the Security Coun-
Gil, Alexandra Parodi, that the
armed intervention is directed
against terrorist Zionist gangs and
not against Palestine jews.
Egypt declared she had no object
except to restore security and order
to Palestine until a just solution
Of the problem is reached
The Egyptian government charged
horrible crimes have been perpe-
trated by Zionist gangs. 1t said
these crimes are positive proof that
the Zionists are pursuing the self
same policy Of persecution. torture
and murder adopted by the Nazis
in Germany
Called on Short Notice.
Delegates and u N officials had
been assured earlier this morning
there would be no meeting Of the
Council today, despite the fighting
in Palestine. However, the Egyptian
note apparently changed Mr.. Parodis
mind, and he issued the call at
10:45 am, E. s. T. 1t was the short
est notice the delegates have had
for an emergency meeting.
U. N. delegates generally are be-
ing cagey about saying who is at
fault in Palestine.
Some delegates who have strongly
committed themselves for or against
the new Jewish state charge their
opponents with being wrong But
the great majority of the U. N. is
keeping quiet about the blame until
the situation develops further.

the aggressor might also affect the
way in which the arms embargo
would be revised or lifted. If this
government, for example, consid-
cred the Arabs guilty of aggression
it might consider that grounds for
permitting the Jews but not the
Arabs to obtain American arms.
Palestine Dominates News.
The Palestine situation dominated
news out of the White House yes
terday and included information on
these other points in addition to
the embargo issue:
/. The President Is studying the
advisability Of exchanging diplo-
matte representatives with the new
provisional government Of Israel.
1t was expected that Eliahu Epstein,
agent of the provisional government
here, would be designated as Its
diplomatic representative.

with Lesnevich.
The Charles camp has bombarded
boxing commissions from coast to
coast with challenges to LesneVlch
for the 175-pound title. Now that
is all forgotten and as Mintz says,
We want the heavyweight crown
Charles. normally a 173-pounder,
has lost only one since his return
from war service. That loss, un-
fortunately for him. was to Elmer
Ray In his only Madison Square
Garden showing Charles later re-
versed that loss, knocking out Ray
in the ninth round at Chicago, May
7. In his last outing, he won 10
round decision over Erv Sarlin at
Buffalo.
There is considerable doubt along
the beach about the public reaction
to another Walcott appearance. The
crowd booed Jersey Joe throughout
the early rounds of last nights slow
bout.
Sol Strauss, acting promoter OF
the Twentieth Century, said he rated
Lesnevich, Charles and Walcott as
the leading contenders.

lows like Joe Baksi. Lee Savold and
Bruce Woodcock." said Strauss. But
what we really want to do is to un-

mate, looked pretty good last night.
Savolds manager, Bill DAILY. was
around with the details of the eX-
bartender's comeback streak that
started when he unexpectedly
knocked out Gino Buonvino in "a
seconds of the first round last spring
in the Garden.
Even Melio Bettina. who seemingly
was eliminated for keeps when he
was rocked to sleep by Lesnevich in
SO seconds of round No. last year
weighed in with a claim. His new
pilot. Vic Marsillo, trotted out
record of three straight kayo wins
Louis insisted he meant it last
night when he said he was retiring.
Marshall Miles. his manager, said
we probably will notify the COM
mission of our retirement.
Chairman Eddie Eagan of the New
York State Athletic Commission said
no action would be taken, pending
formal notice of the champs re-
