In the latest Israeli reprisal
raid. a Jordanian fortress high in
the hills of Central Palestine
dominating Israel's communica-
tions in the Plain of Sharon and
threatening m any settlements
there was wiped out by a power
full Israel infantry force supported
by artillery in a seven-hour battle
described as the worst in the his
tory of the Jordan-Israel armis-
tice.
The Israel reprisal action fol-
lowed attacks by Jordanian gun
ners on the Jerusalem-H -Haifa rail-
way line, forays against Israel
settlements and tn e murder of
two Israelis in an orange grove
near Neve Hadassah. The Israel
forces razed to the ground the
Arab strongpoint a kilometer and
half from the center of the town
of Qualqilya in the mountainous
region which used to be known
as "Palestine's bloody triangle"
Jordanian military losses were
set at 48 dead. Israel's losses were
officially stated to be l6 dead. two
missing and IL wounded.
The Israel attack was launched
at about nine o'clock in the eve
ming and apparently caught the
Jordanians by surprise. The Is
raeli forces first occupied Quail
qilya, town of 10000 inhabit-
ants, and then moved against the
police station-a huge rectangular
concrete structure originally built
by Sir Charles Tegart, British po-
lice commissioner under the Man
date, but reinforced and convert
ed into a veritable fortress.
An Israeli force which had land
mined the approaches. blocked re-
lief attempts by a battalion
strength Arab Legion force from
the camp near Azzoun. The four
towers of the fortress went down
in huge explosion that could be
heard in Tel Aviv.
United Nations observers began
an investigation of the incident
on the Jordan side of the frontier
since Jordan, alone, had filed
complaint. 1t was stated at UN
headquarters in Jerusalem that
their preliminary reports would
be cabled to Secretary General
Dag Hammarskjold at UN head
quarters in New York. Israel did
not file a complaint with the
truce organization. 1t has been

who is converting her won't con-
slider it too early for me TO speak
of her as co-religionist.
Marilyn has been put on my
hands by various readers of the
column I write for one of the
daily press Of our town "What
do you think about Marilyn turn

me Orr "Do you think she
did the right thing?" Or, what
can the future hold for one who
goes away from Jesus?"
And one whom I visualize in

Marilyn going Jewish: ''Why do

Then a member of the Ninth

Jewish gentleman says, it isn't a
long way to Judaism from being
Christian, why did Marilyn have
to go over there? Yes, she could
have been just as happy staying

And a Unitarian broke into the

Wanting Too Much

spoken Admiral Sims once
told a feminine audience in Boston
that they were the chief cause Of
war You have no limits to your
wants, he said. Your husbands
have to keep working harder to
satisfy you, manufacturers have to
keep looking farther and farther
for the raw materials to make the
things you want, and presently we
get into quarrels with other ma
tons that either want the same
things or don't want us to have
them; and then you have the max
ings Of war. Admiral Sims might
have been reading the letter Of
James Wanting what we don't
have, wanting what we actually
don't need, he says is major rea-

men. Even among Christians, be-
