full personal confidence"
Jordan's demand for Col.
Leary's removal apparently was
prompted by the officers medi-
alton efforts in an Israeli con-
voy incident last week which
touched of a series of border
clashes.
Jordan charged the IsraeIis
violated the armistice agree
ment by sending a convoy with
highly fiammable benzine to a
hospital in the Mount Scopus
demilitarized area within the
Arab part of Jerusalem.
Israel then asked to negotiate
with Jordan. citing a section of
the armistice agreement apply
ing to the movement of traffic
on roads in the Bethlehem
Jordan area.
Col. Leary relayed the re-
quest. Jordan rejected it.
The Arab governments re-
pudiation of Col. Leary as a
truce observer yesterday was ac-
companied by an announce
ment that Jordan will take the
convoy matter to the U. N. Sc

Bias Charged

said he had been informed of

Col. Leary. He added that the
United States officer had been
biased on previous occasions.
The demand that Col. Leary
be replaced raised the poss

Last Sacrament
The Pontiff also said that
artificial respiratory methods
could be used to allow a dying
patient to. receive the last
sacrament Of the Roman Cath
ole Church.
But he said that a yes or
no'' answer could not be given
to the question whether the
Extreme Unction Of the Church
was valid if not administered
until the blood was ceasing to
circulate. or after circulation
had stopped.
The Pontiff said medical au-
thorities must decide whether
the ceasing of circulation rep
resented the moment of death;
whether this represented the
moment when the soul sepa-
rated from the body, although
some organs might still be
'functioning.
/ He said the question Of the
moment of death of a person
in deep coma, whose blood CIR
Iculation had been maintained
for days only by artificial
methods, was not within the
competence Of the Church to
decide. but was for medical
decision.
