Swift Step Token
To Get Out Of Zone
Of Hostilities

The United States moved
swiftly today to disengage its
military forces and influence
from the Eastern Mediterranean
area of hostilities between Egypt,
Israel, France and Great Brit
ain.
The State Department an
nounced it has stopped all
American shipments of military
goods to the area.
The Defense Department said
the United States 9th Fleet
would be pulled back from the
area Of hostilities as soon as
the speeded-up evacuation of
American nationals is completed.
In Compliance With U. N.
The stoppage of military sup
plies was ordered in compliance
with this mornings United Ma
tions General Assembly recon-
mendation that all members
refrain from introducing military
goods in the area of hostilities
and in general refrain from any
acts which delay or prevent the
implementation" of it's cease fire
resolution.
The practical effect of the
American move is to cut of
small arms shipments to Israel.
Egypt, the only other country in
the present area of hostilities,
has not received military sup
plies from the United States for
some time.
Economic aid, the State De-
partment said, has also been
subjected to IAN obvious slow

American aid personnel in the
area are being evacuated.
Aid Program Suspended
Thus aid programs not only
in Egypt and Israel are in a
virtual state of suspension but
nonmilitary help for Jordan and
Syria is similarly affected.
