UN to Put Aside Middle East Debate for Now
United Nations General Assembly aims to sideline the heated Middle East debate for a few days as diplomats seek a path to end the Israeli Egyptian deadlock. Russia and Arab states press for Israel to withdraw from Egypt and widen UNEF duties, while the U S backs Hammarskjold's plan to station UN forces along the armistice line and in Sharm el Sheikh to monitor a truce and ensure shipping freedom. Abba Eban cautions that direct contact is needed to avoid another deadlock, with Arab states urging Israel to pull back and face a tougher stance.

Protests Fail to Change Committee in Arkansas Tax Fight
In Little Rock the Senate Revenue and Taxation Committee backed a tax package by Orval Faubus proposing a three percent sales levy and broader bases. The House rejected a plan to extend the current two percent tax, but that measure could be reconsidered. Faubus argues the package would raise about 18 to 22 million annually for schools and welfare, while administration bills aim for 3 million more via personal exemption cuts and 1 million more from severance taxes. The House vote tally showed 40 ayes and 44 nays, with a quorum issue noted. The bill faces continued debate and possible reconsideration as Faubus’ program moves toward the House.
