With Egypt, Lebanon
AT Decisive Stage
BY the Associated Press

RHODES, Jan. 20.-ArmiStice
negotiations between Israel and
two Arab neighbors-Egypt and
Lebanon-are reported in q de-
cisive stage.
i An authoritative source in Rhodes
said last night that DR.. Ralph
Bunche, acting United Nations me-
diator, has submitted to Israel and
Egypt the first draft of a compromise
on the disputed Negeb Desert.
A reliable source in Tel Aviv said
the first draft Of an Israeli-Lebanese
agreement was written yesterday at
the Lebanese frontier village of Ras
En- Naqura.
The Rhodes informant said the
Israeli Egyptian compromise brings
together the conflicting viewpoints
of the two nations on the strategic
Southern Palestine desert. He said
it also involves troop Withdrawals
and a reduction in the numbers of
soldiers on both sides in that area.
Details Kept Secret.
Complete details of the compro-
mise were not available. DR.. Bunche
has pledged both the Israeli and
Egyptian delegations to secrecy.
The 1sraeli-Lebanese agreement
was drawn up between representa-
tives Of the two governments, the
Tel Aviv informant said. He said
the delegations returned to their
respective capitals to present the
yet unsigned drafts for the approval
Of their home governments.
Elias Sassoon, expert on Near
Eastern affairs in the Israeli Foreign
Minister. had been called home from
the Egyptian Israeli talks in Rhodes
to head the negotiations with Leb-
anon.
Earlier reliable source in Ma
hariya, Palestine. said Lebapese-
Israeli agreement had been signed
yesterday.
There has been no information Of
any progress in reported talks be-
tween Israel and Trans-Jordan.
The Tel Aviv informant said
Israeli and Lebanese delegations will
meet again at Ras En- Naqura for
additional armistice talks around
the end of the week.
Weekend Deadline Set.
Rhodes informants said DR..
Bunche had set this weekend at
the deadline for success or failure
of the U. N. efforts to negotiate an,
armistice between Israel and Egypt
in Palestine. The sources said the
talks were progressing smoothly
without setbacks," but were being
retarded by multitude of details"
The Egyptians and Israelis seek
agreement on how much of the
Negeb Israel shall control The
Jews hope to develop the southern
desert area into farm land and
tap its reputed oil and mineral
resources.
Informants said DR.. Bunche and
his aides plan to return to the
United States in less than a week.
The mediator's duties are sched-
uled to end with the conclusion Of
the armistice talks. The U. N.
Cancellation Commission on Pales-
time, now in Geneva, will then take
over. 1t is due to arrive in Athens
Saturday, en- route to Jerusalem
Later DR.. Bunche will transfer rec
ords to the commission.

-$35, 900. 900 Immediately and $65,
000, 900 more during the gear.
President Truman last May IA
A few minutes after the new stat
was OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES it as {

that the United States regards i
as in fact the ruling authorit.
there. Last October "a he an
nounced he had ordered quicl
handling Of loan applications from
Israel. Full recognition is callee
DE Jure."
Confidence in Future, Seen.
The loan approval makes Ameri'
can money available to delevor
Israel's agriculture and industry
Also, coming six days before elec.
tions are held In the. Jewish state
it reflects United States confidence
in 1srael's future.
Government ofYicials told q re.
porter that barring an election
upset the State Department will
extend full diplomatic recognition
to Israel shortly after the January
rs elections.
Only totally unexpected victory
by the Communists or extreme left
wing Socialists could cause the State
Department to stop or delay It's
plans to broaden the limited de
facto" recognition.
The present Conservative Social
ist Party headed by David Ben
Gurion is heavily favored to win a
majority Of the 120 seats in the
Israeli Parliament. Government of.
ficials said his chances for victory
undoubtedly have increased since
the loan was announced.
The $35. 900 900 is to be used i'm
mediately to buy tractors, plows and
other equipment needed to step up
the output of Israeli farms. This
increased food yield is required tc
feed the growing number OF i'm
migrants.
The remaining $65, ,00O, 900 will be
given the Israelis after they submit
specific projects calling for Ameri-
can financing. This portion of the
credit is available until Decembe,

3la per cent interest rate; it is re-
payable in Is years..
British Change Likely.
The American credits to .Israe
coming in the midst of truce ne.
gotiations between Jews and Arabs
made a change in British policy
toward Israel more likely, but not
certain.
Government officials SHE'D away
from predicting Britain's eventual
course, except to repeat Undersec-
retary Lovett's statement that both
Britain and the United States are
trying to achieve the same objec.
tive in the Middle East-economic
and social stability. plus security.
Mr.. Lovett spiked reports of an
deal" whereby the Brit
ish would recognize Israel In re-
turn for American participation In

But reports. Of another possible

ately after Mr.. Lovett's denial. Ru-
