Some border raids into Israel
have been reported.
Takeover Seen
All this adds up the Israelis
say. to a gradual Egyptian take
over. The Mapai accuses the
United States of passing the
buck on GAIA to the United
Nations.
The Ahdut Havoda spokesman
said "Hammarskjold has respect
for the American position. If the
United States opposes the return
of Egypt to GAIA, then Ham
marskjold will give the proper
orders to the u. N. Emergency
Force and Egypt will stay out. !"
He said GAIA unrest and the
border violations could be
stopped by an Observation-Disclosures
order for the arrest of a small
number of Egyptian "ringlead-
ers" in GAIA.
The General Zionist head said
he hoped the United States
would use its influence on the
United Nations and back up the
assurances given Israel.
It was suggested by the For
eign Office that the United Ma
tions was surprised by Egyptian
aggressNeness over GAIA and
that recent events reflected a
lack Of plans rather than United
States United Nations intention
to let Israel down. If the United
States does not hold the line
now. however. he said. the dan
ger of a blowup in GAIA will in
crease.
The Ahdut Havoda and Gen.
eral Zionist spokesman regretted
Israel ever withdrew from GAIA
All persons said Egyptian partic-
ipation in the GAIA administra-
ton would permit prewar Feda-
yeen raids to be reorganized, but
that the presence of United Ma
lions troops would prevent Is
rael from retaliating-"our only
defense"
No Shooting Seen
The Ahdut Havoda believes the
United Nations will not shoot to
stop lawless elements. The party
spokesman said he is convinced,
too the United Nations will not
shoot at Israeli soldiers when
they march back in.
1--WE will appeal to the United
Nations and the United States
before we do return" he said
however.
| There was a general conviction
that the United States is letting
Ilegalisms obscure the real issue
"A murderer is getting away
on a technicality." Foreign
Office representative said. "Le-
Igalism is overriding common
sense"
/ The Israelis argue it this way;
Egypt was in GAIA only in pur-
suance Of the armistice agree.

some 600 miles to the north.
The United States has already
promised support of ISrael's
contention that the gulf-which
leads to the Southern Israeli port
of Elath-is an international
waterway open to all ships. Egypt
contends the Strait Of Tiran at
the entrance to the gulf is Egyp-
tan territorial water and barred
Israeli-bound shipping from it,
as she does from the Suez Canal,
until Israel occupied the Sinai
Desert in her lightning invasion
last fall.
There has been considerable
speculation that the United
States would force showdown
by trying to send ships through
the gulf after Egypt reoccupied
the Gulf of Aqaba coast. The
closest other bunkering port
open to the Americans is the
British colony of Alden. 800 miles
south of Massawa and just out

Strip despite recent assurances
by President Eisenhower and
Secretary of State Dulles that
Israel could assume that Egyp-
tians would be kept out. Israel
based its decision to comply with
the United Nations withdrawal
order on these assurances.
Party spokesman hoped with
out optimism that the United
States would change its attitude
and crack down on the Egyp-
tians. One. speaking for a party
in the government coalition, said
Iit was now a sure thing that
Israel will have to reoccupy
GAIA in defiance of United Ma
tons troops.
Politicians questioned repre-.
scented the Mapai, Premier Ben
Gurion's own party: Ahdut Ha.

and General Zionists, the most
responsible and important oppo-

parties, only the Communist
would be less critical of the
United States and the frankly

U. N. Position
The United Nations position
on GAIA is that the armistice
agreement cannot legally be bro
ken either by Egypt, Israel or
the United Nations. It can
only be renegotiated by Israel
and Egypt. Until it is rewritten,
Egypt MAINTAINS Its right to
govern GAIA. The United Ma

to keep the peace. The neutral
view Of the GAIA troubles was
expressed yesterday by the
United Nations official here who
has been watching Israeli Egyp-
tan border clashes for several
years.
If both countries show re-
straint and some cooperation
he said, 1.-THE Strip can be run
effectively. The Israelis must re-
frain from blaming age-old
Palestine banditry on the Egyp-
Itian government and blaming
the United Nations for not STOP

agitating in the Strip"
The mood of Israel today, how
ever. is to say Americas unwill-
ingness to be as firm with Egypt
as with Israel is the cause of the
GAIA troubles.
