water pipeline and three empty
houses near the LYDIA Airport
and attempted to sabotage a rail-
way line and bridge. They at
tackled q number Of passing
vehicles with rifle fire and
grenades.
Similar fedayeen attacks from
Egypt were among reasons given
by Israel for its blitz assault
across the Egyptian border last
week. The lightning attack
ended with the capture of the
GAIA strip and the entire Sinai
Peninsula.
Believed Cara Escapes
No casualties were reported in
any of the attacks, which the
Israelis believed were made by
fedayeen who escaped from the
GAIA Strip and Sinai across
Israel to Jordan.
The attacks extended from
ISharr Hagai. a border town mid
way between Tel Aviv and Jeru-
salem, north to three villages in
the narrow waist Of Israel where
the Jordan border is only 10
miles from the Mediterranean.
The army said the raiders blew
up the water pipeline at Shaar
Hagai and threw grenades at
passing cars. They also hurled
Igrenades and fired at a passing
car at Nachshon, few miles
away.
Sabotage on Rail Line
The three houses blown UP
were at Belt Arif, only three
miles from the Israel main air.

Sabotage attempts on the rail-
way and the bridge were made
further north at Ramat Hako-

dayeen were captured and q
fourth killed in a fight yesterday

in light of his new illness. The
possibility that the President, if
reelected, would not be able to
exert his full leadership at home
and abroad would radically
change attitude of many Euro
peans about the coming election.
Vice President Nixon's popularity
in these parts is low and the esti-
mate of most other Republican
presidential timber is at the
subzero level. AS a result the
tendency at this point is to hope
fervently for the Presidents
recovery. But if the new
disorder is of a serious nature
the sentiment in Europe would
favor his withdrawal as
strengthening the chances of
Democrats in the coming vote.
