N Show Strengthens
Alexandra Claim
On Old Fire Engine

Armed with new evidence re-
vealed on Edward r. Murrow's
"See It Now" television pro-
gram. Alexandria Mayor Mar
shall j. Beverley today renewed
his campaign to bring an old
fire engine back to the city from
Hudson. N. Y.
The Mayor and his efforts to
recover the old engine which he
claims Yankee troops hauled
away from Alexandria in 1861
were featured on the television
show last night. The broadcast
recalled that the board of di-
rectors of the Hudson .flremen'S
home, where the engine is ex-
hibited, concluded that AleXan-
dria failed to prove the engine
was rightfully theirs.
But the broadcast didn't end
with a recount of past events.
Mr.. Murrow produced evidence
uncovered by his own reporter to
show that the engine came from
Alexandria. He pointed to a
large tag number 289, which is
attached to the controversial
engine.
Pamphlet Exhibited.
Then he produced a pamphlet
that a "See It Now" reporter
found at the faremen's home.
The pamphlet contained a list
of all the trophies exhibited
there. It stated that No. 289
was q fire engine captured from
Alexandria Valley Forge fire
company in 1861 by New York's
fire Zouaves.
Mayor Beverly said he had not
known Of the pamphlet and the
telltale number until he saw the
telecaSt.
"I guess they see now who it
belongs to-" said the Mayor. I'm
appealing to them again with Mr..
Murrow's evidence. I don't see
how they can turn us down."
Fire Bell Rings 10 Minutes.
To start his new campaign,
the Mayor this morning had the
FIRE bell rung for 10 minutes
at the Old Friendship Veterans
fire engine company of which
he is a member. 1t is at Friend
ship that the Mayor wants to
exhibit the old fire engine.
George Washington was one
of the founders of Friendship
in 1774. and the original fire
engine he bought is being re-
turned to Friendship from Balti-

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y.
(JTA) - Israel has reminded
he Secretary General of the
U.N. that he is obliged to con-
woke a conference between Is
rael and Jordan under the
terms of the general armis-
lice agreement. A communi-
cation from the Israel Gov
ernment to the Secretary Gen
eral said that the situation on
the ISrael-Jordan frontier had
deteriorated further in recent
weeks and that conference
is more urgent now than it
was when Israel invoked Arti-
Gle XII of the armiStice which
makes meeting of both sides
compulsory,
In Amman, Premier FawZi

ian Government was categori-
cally opposed to talks with Is
rael aimed at modifying or
suspending armistice provi-
sionS to reach a peace accord.
He said the seven other Arab
States from which cOmmuni-
cations were received agree
with the Jordanian rejection
of such talks.
The Israeli representative
said that during the past
months there had been Is at
tacks by marauders from a.

Some of these incidents had
resulted in loss of life. The
frequency of these attacks
had made it clear that "deci
