For Immedi

ate Vote

On Arab Withdrawal

Political Committee Shelves Holy Land Plan, Opposed by U. S. Britain, After Long Debate

Russia Tost a long fight 1 In the the United Nations political commit-

tee today for an immediate vote

on Soviet proposals to order the

withdrawal of Arab armies from.Palestine. After debating the issue most of the day, the committee voted 32 to 2, with 14 abstentions, to defer a vote until other aspects of the Palestine problem are discussed.

Arab spokesmen told the committee that before their armies left Palestine all “foreigners,” including Americans and eastern Europeans fighting for Israel, would have to get out. The Arabs made it plain that by “foreigners” they meant all the *Jews and others who moved into Israel since the state was horn a year ago today. It was last Nov. 29 that the United Nations voted for partition of Palestine. The Arab and Soviet blocs dominated debate in the committee. Both the United States and Great Britain opposed the Russian proposal. The Israeli government filed a formal application for membership in the United Nations today, the anniversary of the partition decision. creating the Jewish state. Seven nations of the Security Council must approve the Israeli application before it ean go before the 58-nation General Assembly. The Arab states at least are certain to oppose the application.

Germany

Juan A. Bramuglia of Argentina asked the Big Four at Paris today to give him their answers before tomorrow on his proposal to set up a neutral commission to look for a solution of the Berlin currency problem.

Mr. Bramuglia wanted to wind up his month's term as chairman of the United Nations Security| Council with a public statement on the Berlin crisis. German Communists apparent¥y will set up formally tomorrow a separate Berlin city government which will attempt to control the entire German capital. Otto Geschke, Communist deputy speaker of the Berlin city assembly, called a special session of the assembly in the Russian sector. Municipal elections scheduled for next Sunday in the American, British and French sectors of the Cy will not be permitted in the * sactor. At Berlin, American Military Governor Gen. Lucius D. Clay ordered distribution of an additional 28,000 tons of coal in Berlin next month because the airlift is operating so well. The General said the lift had beaten the worst weather Germany had to offer. France A DOCK strike which had crippled French ports for several weeks was settled today when the dockers’ branch of the Commu-nist-controlled General Confederation of Labor approved a wage accord. The settlement marked the govy ernment’s second victory on the labor front in three days. Miners of the CGT ended their strike Saturday. Japan THE U. 8. Navy transport General H. W. Butner arrived at Yo-| kosuka naval base today with! nearly 700 American women and children evacuated from Commu-| nist-threatened areas in China.

Coroner Sets Hearing

In Bedford Deaths

Times State Service BEDFORD, Nov. 20—A wrangle over ownership of the gun which caused both of their deaths today was believed responsible for the murder-suicide of an estranged Lawrence County couple yesterday. A hearing into the deaths of Carl Clifford Dickerson, 63, and his former wife, Mrs. Linda Wagner Dickerson, 69, is scheduled today. Before the hearing, however, Coroner R. E. Wynn said it was “murder and suicide unquestionably.” He said Dickerson shot his wife and then took his own wife. The death weapon was a 12gauge, single-barre! shotgun which had been the object of a dispute between the couple since their divorce several weeks ago. Man Sought Gun Sheriff Zelbert Hawkins said Dickerson had been in his office “three or four times” trying to regain possession of the shotgun. Sheriff Hawkins said he told him the divorce had been settled in court and that he could not take the gun from Mrs. Dickerson without a court order. Coroner Wynne said Dickerson apparently went to Mrs. Dickerwns farm home near Peerless, eight miles northeast of here, yesterday and got the gun. He said an argument may have ensued, leading up to the double shooting. Dickerson’s body was discovered first. A’ playmate of Mrs. Dickerson’s young grandson saw the body near a corn crib at the rear of the house. He had been shot through the head and the gun lay nearby. Neighbors Find Woman The boy called neighbors who found Mrs. Dickerson’s body on She had been shot from the back in the right shoulder. The shot penetrated downward through the lungs and heart. A note was found on Dickerson’s body instructing that the gun be given to a friend. Mrs. Dickerson was alone at home, investigating officers said. A young grandson lived with her, but! was visiting in Cincinnati when the shooting occurred. Officers said Dickerson returned here from Science Hill, Ky., several weeks ago and had been attempting to effect a reconciliation with his former wife. Mrs. Dickerson had been married three timés and had several children by previous marriages. sonnel stationed in Tsingtao and Shanghai. India INDIA abolished untouchability today.

Them to Red Front

NEW YORK, Nov. 20 — Key figures in the $10,000 weekly radio show, “Theater U, 8. A.” which is sponsored and paid for by the Army and Air Force to promote recruiting, have records as backers of Communist fronts. The master of ceremonies, announced on the first three broadcasts over the ABC network. as “Your United States Army Host,” was an avid plugger for the Wal-lace-Communist third party which did its utmost to discredit American’'s program of preparedness and universal military training. He is Alfred Drake, a Broadway star and one of the most active supporters of Communistfront causes in the entertainment industry. The director and production boss of the program to sell the Army to American youth is John Houseman, a sponsor of People’s Songs, Inc, which was exposed more than two years ago as a propaganda agency of the Communists.
