Iroqi Premier Joins
Soud in Syrian ToIks
BY WILLIAM L. RYAN
Associated Press Foreign corresponde

DAMASCUS Syria, Sept. 26-LeaderS of Syria Saudi
Arabia and raq began talks here today amid that
summit conference is in the ong where the kings
and heads of state of all Arab lands might probe
ing them.
The arrival here Of Premier Ali Jawdat Iraq considered
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1957-09-26

a dramatic demOnStration OF
efforts Of King Saud of Saudi
Arabia to prevent a new
blow-up. It also limited strongly
that Syria retains some reser-
vationS and even concern about
the extent of her involvement
with the Soviet Union.
But Premier Sabri Assali of
Syria also used the occasion
for a renewed attack on i'm
perialists."
While this might appear in
conflict with the idea that
Syria wants to keep a lane
open westward it is an ex-
preston of Syria's domestic
political considerations and
avoidance of any appearance
that she intends to retrace her
steps. Addressing the Iraqi
Premier, Mr.. AsSali said Syria
"wholeheartedly welcomes this
visit" the first by any Iraqi
Premier here since the Bagh-
dad pact was established.
Israel Seen As Threat
Mr.. Assali then added. "All
Arab states are confident Syria
poses no threat to them, and
we are also confident we have
nothing to fear from them.
We all believe that sole anti
Arab Threat comes from Israel
and impeftalist powers which
are trying to root out indie
pendence and crush Arab ma
tionalism.
However Mr.. Assali added,
I'VE shall not rest assured but
shall remain on the alert and
prepared for any emergency
because we have learned much
from the plots and intrigues of
the imperialist powers. We
have learned that every temp
est is preceded by a calm"
While Syria sent a Foreign
Office emissary to Beirut last
night to invite Premier Jawdat
here Sapd began conversations
with President Shukri Kuwatly.
The talks continued today and
later Mr.. Jawdat Joined the two
rulers in the presidency.
An informed source said the
Syrlans assured the Saudi
Arabian monarch "Syria's BUSH
ness" with the Soviet Union
would have no effect on the
freedom and independence OF
Syria.
Long Feuding With Syria
Irau. like neighboring Jordan
ruled by the Hashemite family
has long been feuding with the
current Syrian regime.
Premier Jawdat entered
Syria from Lebanon by auto
mobile after a trip to Beirut
from 1stanbul.
The Saudi Arabian King, who
flew in yesterday, apparently
strongly urged Syria to invite
Iraq to participate in the talks,

Finance Leak
Probe Urged

LONDON, SSept. 26 (P.-
Prime Minister Macmillan's
Conservative cabinet today
faced stern demands for an
inquiry TO determine if govern
ment financial secrets are leak
ing to insiders.
Available evidence appears
10 indicate that a surprising
number of traders knew in

Anticipating that this would
knock down the price of gov

and a few hours later were
able to buy the same bonds
back at a much lower price.
These traders are understood
to have gained $40 900 by
this maneuver.

IT'S not against any law to

that this guess was too good.

editorially the evidence now is
too strong to be ignored or dis
missed" 1t added: THE Gov

to the bottom. And If charges
can be brought home the public
