Arms for Israel

CINCINNATI, Feb. 81 R.-I
Gov. McKeldin of Maryland yes
terday urged prompt shipment
of arms to Israeli to maintain
peace in the Middle East.
The Governor. in an address
before a Jewish Welfare Fund
meeting here, said the shipment
OF Communist arms to Egypt
and other Arab countries con-
stitutes an imminent danger and
threat to world peace"
Gov. McKeldin said. THE issue
now is not between the Arabs and
and Israel alone but between
the Communists and the free
world.
IF Egypt and the other Arab
countries attack Israel, 1t would
take place at the direction of
and at the time when It suits
the Kremlin."
The Governor said that arms
shipments are not the best
policy in the long-range view
He said that a mutual security
pact between Israel and ANY
other nation In the Middle East
which will renounce aggression
would be a better solution.
He said, "the recent on-again.
off-again shipment of tanks to
Saudi Arabia illustrates how
difficult, If not impossible, 1t
would be to maintain a So
called parity Of balance between
Israel and the seven Arab
states"
Gov. McKeldin said that
American interests require and
dictate that we make known to
any potential aggressor In the
Middle East a firm and equivo-
cal determination to oppose such
aggression.
