Israel Issues Dominate Plans for Police Force
UNITED NATTONa (JTA) -^ Plana for the formation of tho United Nations intornational po¬ lice force "to secure and super¬ vise" tho ond of hostilities be¬ tween Israel nnd E^pt progres¬ sed rapidly here, but two big questions domlnatod tho atmos¬ phere:
1. Win Israel withdraw Its mili¬ tary forces from the Sinai Penin¬
sula and Oaza and go back to the old armistice demarcation lines? 2. If Israel refuses to withdraw its troops behind the old armis¬ tice lines, will the UN command take military action against Is¬ rael's   forces?
Pressure In the direction of forcing Israel's troops withdrawal was seen In a Franco-British an¬ nouncement that the British and

Chronicle Sets New Deadline
The Chronicle this week announces another change of operation. Effective v^ith the Nov. 23 is¬ sue, deadline for copy will be 1 p. m. on Tuesdays, instead of noon Wednesdays. Photographic mater¬ ial will be accepted at tbe usual time-—10 a. m. on Mondays.
Problems of production maice this move neces- saty. It has been contemplated for sever&l months. 'Now that The Chronicle has expanded to six-column Sagev it takes more^ news matter and advertising to occupy the 840 inches of space in an eight-^pagc edi- tibrijl compar'ed to the former 610 inches.
« Having 73% of the copy come in with Wednes¬ day morning's mail creates' a mid-week over-load for typiesetting and th^ composition department.
And while we're on the subject of copy sub- tnittedci hy the .cqihinUnity's:' organiasations^ -ive re- ;min4^th^;^ubliGity chairin^n of the, proper ptesehta- tion of lii^ws matter to The Chronicle:
Typewritten, double spaced; first names (in¬ stead of A. Smith, Mrs. B. Jones); do not use com¬ mercial and'(&); dates and times should read: Sat¬ urday, Jan. 1, 8 p. m. (not Sat., January 1st, 8:00 P. M.); otherwise, avoid abbreviations; do not speci¬ fy repetition of article for subsequent weeks; per¬ sonal pronouns (our, we, your, I) should not appear in straight news stories (unless someone is being quoted); use of the adjective is not condoned (allow the reader to assume din'&ers will be "delicious," programs will he "exciting and unforgettable," and "good times will be had by all"); also, the editor's No. 1 eye-sore is. the expression "you are cordially invited to attend"* (the public is invited, is suffi¬ cient.)
Adherence to these few editorial suggestions wUL help, greatly, in publishing a quicker, neater and newsier Chronicle. Our thanks to whom it may concern.
French troops in the Suez area have ordered a ceasc*flre, but \yant assurance from the UN that the new international force wtll be competent to "secure and sup¬ ervise the attainment of the ob¬ jectives" spelled out In one of the Important resolutions adopt¬ ed. That resolutloh spoke speci¬ fically of a cease-fire -which has already boen attaincd--and of Israel's   troop   withdrawal.
Plans for the UN's police force were placed before the United Nations by Seoretary General Dag Hammarskjold, preparing the groundwork for efforts to ob¬ tain answers to the two Import¬ ant questions facing the Assem¬ bly.
Hammarskjold announced that seven countries have so far offer¬ ed to contribute troops to the UN command: Canada, Colombia, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Paki¬ stan, Finland. Maj. Gen. E. L. M. Burns, . until now chief of the UN. Truce Supervision Organiza^ tion In Palestine, has already boen appointed to head the UN command. He Is understood to have asked for a force of be¬ tween 7.000 and 10,000 men. No¬ where near that number seems to have been offered by tho seven countries who have volunteered to participate so far.
Hammarskjold made an effort In hla report to the Assembly to define the jurlsdictlbn of the new UN command. However, in some of the more. Important In¬ stances,' lula vague diplomatic language ient itself to contradic¬ tory interpretations.
Hammarskjold .did make one point clear. The UN command cannot be stationed upon or oper¬ ate In "tho territory of the given country without tho consent of tho government of that country." That was one of the Important points of clarification requested from the Assembly several nights ago by Ambassador Abba Eban of Israel. Hammarskjold declared In hla report that the UN com¬ mand's functions "con bo as¬ sumed to cover an area extending roughly from the Suez Canal to the   armistice   demarcation   linos,
