U. N. to Ballot Monday
On Censure of Israel

for following a reprisal policy
against her Arab neighbors.
Israel has accused Syria of
provoking last months attack
on a Syrian post by shooting
at Israeli boats on the Sea of
Galilee.
The United States and Brit
ain hoped to muster enough
support in weekend consulta-
tions to get the seven votes
needed for council approval. But
the outcome hung in doubt
with the chance that Russia,
France, Romania, the United
Arab Republic and Ghana
might abstain. That would
mean only six yes votes.
The Israelis have made no
secret of their displeasure over
the resolution, approval of
which would represent a VIC
tory for the. Arab states.
Decision Postponed
The Ghana delegate, Alex
Quaison-Sackey, helped Israel
stave off a decision last night
and so gain time to marshal
her resources.
The Israeli Delegate, Michael
S. Comay. had told the council
he had just sent the new reso-
luton to his government and
could not state Israel's posi-
ton before Monday.
Mohamed H. El-Zayyat of
the UAR and Platon D. Moro
zov of the Soviet Union said
there was no reason to post
pone the voting. but they
raised no objection when Mr..
Quaison-Sackey pleaded with
the council to grant Mr.. Comay
a delay.
Mr.. Quaison Sackey de-
plored the attack of March
1917, but he said Syrian ac-
tionS had been provocative.
Mr.. MoroZov said the coun-
Gil should approve a Syrian
resolution calling for condem-
nation of Israel. He termed
some parts of the Western
resolution quite unaccepta-
ble." saying they implied Syria
and Israel were equally guilty.
Syrians Privately Happy
But Mr.. Morozov was ex-
pected to let it go through be-
cause Syria's demand lacked the
votes and the British American
proposal offered the only
chance of council action against
what he called Israeli aggres-
sion.
Privately. the Syrians were
happy with the BritiSh-United
States resolution. Diplomatic
sources said that before submit
ting it. the sponsors had added
a derogatory mention of Israel
to satisfy Syria and refused a
French request that they soften
other wording against the Is
raeliS.

De GuuIIe

PARIS. Apr. 7 CAP).-French
voters are expected to give the
massive approval President De
Gaulle seeks when they ballot
in tomorrow's referendum rati-
flying peace aecords paving the
way for Algerian independence.
Some observers predicted UP
to 80 per cent of the voters
would favor the cease fire
worked out between the French
government and Algerian Ma
tionalist leaders.
But several big political par
ties have refused to accept Gen.
De Gaulle's contention that ap-
proval of the accord would
mean Endorsement of the pres
ident's actions and a mandate
to 60 ahead as he sees fit.
The Communists and Social
lists have strongly favored
peace in Algeria, but they in
sist their votes cannot be con-
sidered approval of De Gaulle
policies in other fields.
The two-week campaign for
the accords has stirred little
interest in France. mainly be-
cause few political leaders or
groups have dared come out
against the appealing prospect
of peace.
Pierre Poupade and the depu-
ties elected from Algerian cleo
toral districts have been the
most outspoken opponents of
approval for the cease-fire
agreements. Mr.. Poujade is no
longer a political power. how
ever, and the Algerian deputies
have only a limited following
in France.
Within three to six months,
residents of Algeria will be
called on to vote in a refer
endum on whether they want
to become an independent ma
ton or retain the present re-
lationShip with France. 1t is
generally expected they will
vote for independence. The
81 majority of the Moslems
over Europeans in Algeria
seems to assure this result.

Senate committee witnesses
tossed in their ideas yesterday
on President Kannedy's indus
trial tax credit plan. Their
estimates: All the way from
very bad to very good.
The House has passed q tax
bill which has as its central
feature a provision which
would extend tax credits of Z
per cent on investments in
equipment to modernize and
improve production processes.
1t is estimated that these
credits would cut annual in
come tax revenues by about
$l.2 billion at the start, but
the administration theory is
that the investments ultimately
will spur business and more
than return lost revenues.
The Senate Finance Com
mlCCee is nololng It's hearings
now preliminary to reporting
its version of a new bill to the
Senate.
Senator Proxmire, Democrat
OF Wisconsin. gave the credit
plan a rough going-over-and
earned the applause of Com
Chairman Harry F.
Byrd, Democrat of Virginia, who
already had taken his stand
against it.
Senator Proxmire contended
the plan would not work: it is
unfair to other taxpayers :.
and it would result in a huge
revenue loss ="
In addition, he argued, it
would contribute to business in
stability by encouraging in
veStment in boom times and
discourage it in recessions. This
won particular praise
