Israel Spurns Demand
OF i. n. for Removal.
OF Jerusalem Offices
BY ths Asseeiotsd Press

LAKE SUCCESS, Dec. S1.-
Israel told the United Nations
Trusteeship Council in effect to-
day that it will disregard a
Council demand to move its
governmental offices out Of
Jerusalem.
In a letter to Roger Gorreau Of
France. president of the Trustee
ship Council, Israel said it had
full authority for moving govern
mental Offices and departments
into Jerusalem. This was done in
the face Of a U. N. Assembly de-
cision December 8 to interna-'
tionalize Jerusalem.
The Israeli government also
said it regrets that the Council
| is making q needless attempt
to cancel the liberty already
achieved by the population Of
Jerusalem" .'.
The letter was signed by Aubrey
S. Eban, permanent Israeli dele
gate to the U.N., and released here
by the Israeli delegation.
Resist International Rule.
The Israeli and Hashemite Jor-
dan governments, each Of which
controls a section of Jerusalem,
both have served notice they will
resist internationalization.
The Arab News Agency declared
in an Amman dispatch distribut-
ed in Cairo yesterday that King
Abdullah has incorporated into
his kingdom Jordan occupied
Palestine, which includes the old
walled city Of Jerusalem.
Mr.. Garreau commented today
that this does not change the
case. He told a reporter. "It is
a new step taken by one of the
parties to stabilize the situation"
Israel speeded up the transfer
of her governmental departments
to Jerusalem early this month and
Premier David Ben-Gurion es-
tablished his Offices there De-
cember is.
The Trusteeship Council ap-
proved a resolution December 81
expressing concern at the shift.
This resolution said the action
ignores the Assembly decision and
asked Mr.. Garreau to ask Israel
to revoke these measures.
Minority Approval Cited.
The letter was in response to
that resolution. Mr.. Eban wrote
that only a minority Of the Coun-
Gil Is members out .of 12l. voted
for the resolution.
The five for it were France. Bel
|gium. Iraq. Mexico and the Philip
pines. The other members. includ-
ing the United States and Britain
and Russia, abstained. No one
opposed it. AIa2 ..3o7
Mr.. Eban said Israel did not be-
lieve the Trusteeship Council has
authority under the U. N. Charter
to call on a government to revoke
any administrative acts in terri
tories for whose administration
and security the government Is
responsible.
He said Israel's step marks the
continuation of a process begun
long ago as part of an effort to
restore Jerusalem to its tradi-
tional place in the life of the
country.
The Trusteeship Council will
meet January l6 in Geneva to
hear Mr.. Garreau's report on his
efforts to carry out the resolution
and to write statute for Jeru-
salem. 49,.

The crowds downtown were
orderly as they assembled at
hotels and restaurants which had
made special preparations to greet
the New Year. Most of the
hotels and other night spots had
arranged to serve New Year
breakfasts after the tables were
cleared OF alcoholic beverages.
The cost of welcoming the New
Year at the large hotels, for the
most part. was the same as last
year. but in some instances re-
ductions were made because OF
the early deadline on serving

Premier BidauIt Asks
For ; More Votes Of
Confidence on BUDGET
BY the Assoeioted Press

PARIS, Dec. 31.-Pre e r
Georges Bidault asked tonight for
three more votes Of confidence on
his cabinets proposals for Frances
1850 budget, to cap the three he
has won in the last week.
The National Assembly will take
the votes Monday.
It is not at all impossible that
Mr.. Bidault's 2-month-old coal
ition cabinet will fall on any one
Of the three tests.
However, his supporters were
heartened by the showings last
Saturday and yesterday. In the
first test, the Assembly decided by
a six-vote margin to begin dis
cussing the budget.
Yesterday Mr.. Bidault won two
confidence votes-each by a mar
gin OF l8-on items in the budget
of 2,257 900. 100000 francs ($6,-
400 100000 raising taxes on pro-
duction and undistributed cer-
poration profits.
Truck Tax Delayed.
Despite this victory, Mr.. Bidault
was faced with closing 37,000,-
.000-franc gap between ex-
penses and income in the budget.
He sent the Finance Committee
of the National Assembly today a
proposal for raising this sum. The
committee approved all but sug-
gestion for raising $4,000, 900, 900
francs by imposing a tax on truck
companies.
Mr.. Bidault. taking the bull by
the horns. asked votes of conf
dence on:
/. A motion of a member Of the
Finance Committe approving his
cabinets proposals for raising 35,-
000,000,0o0 francs.
2. Approval of the entire motion
as such.
8. On the entire budget.
France is supposed to draft a
balanced budget as a condition for
receiving further Marshall Plan
dollars.
Mr.. Bidault heads q cabinet
made up of his own Catholic
Popular Republican Movement, the
Socialist Party and the Radical
Socialists, q moderate party OF
conservative business men and
farmers.
Many Difficulties Political.
Many of the difficulties put up
to Mr.. Bidault on the budget, OBJ
servers agree, have been inspired
by political aims. rather than
monetary ones.
Many deputies. according to
parliamentary veterans, want new
elections.
Mr.. Bidaults downfall on for
NAL confidence motion would pre-
pare the way for such elections.
Right-wingers in the Assembly.

Mr.. Bidault's headaches. About

bill would necessitate.

IF we continue to increase the
