Great Battle (Continued From Page 1.) Yonists
The Cairo government formally charged that two Jews infected wells near Gaza with typhoid and dysmicry germs. Jews called this claim anti Semitism. The U S State Department said 41 Americans removed from the Marine Corp ship at Beirut agreed to return to the United States. The U S joined Russia in urging forceful UN action to halt the Palestine war. Warren Austin said Arab armies are in Palestine for political reasons. A four week armistice proposal appeared doomed with China supporting it. Britain reportedly considering new terms for a Jewish Arab settlement. The United States and Britain fear wider Middle East fallout if fighting continues.
