State Worried Over HeiNr Arms
WASHINGTON, (JTA) — State Department spokesman Robert McCloskey said tbat "we have noted with tacreasing concern reports of conttauing shipments of aircraft and other arms from the Soviet Union to the U.A.R. and other countries of the Near East. He said those shipments were "signiflcant."
The Department' spokesman said that "it Seems clear to
us that the great powers   	
should be working for alim- ttation of arms ta the Near East and not a resumxition of the old race." He re¬ called President Johnson's statement of June 19 that that the recent Middle East conflict was "a demonstra¬ tion of the danger of the arms race ta this area."
IN SEPARATE statements three Senators who have Just returned firom Israel, urged ttiat the United states supply Israel with the arms and equipment necessary to off¬ set tbe Soviet supplies to Egypt and Syrta.
Sen, Daniel B, Brewster, a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, said that "there can be no doubt that the Arabs were the aggressors who began the war" and that the United States should supply arms srsel to .balance tbe re-

WASHINGTON, (JTA) — President Johnson said that the United States supported the return of Arab refugees to the West Bank area now held by Israel. In a telegram to Sen. Albert B. Goire, Tenn., Dem., who told the Senate previously of the urgent need for settiement of the refugee question, Mr. Johnson said: "I am in full agreement withyour views concerning the urgent need for the return to the West Bank of as many of the displaced people as possible. These people have been uprooted from their established places of residence and ta many cases separated trom their families. Moreover," the President added, "it is neither humane nor logical for them to be living ta make-shift and taadequate.;.camps when far better conditions exist on the West:Bank;V

UNITED NATIONS, N.Y., (JTA)  ~ The emergency special sessionof the Gen¬ eral Assembly bei^n debate on a Pakistan draft resol¬ ution esqpressingirej^etpver Israel's non-compliance with another Pakistan-spon¬ sored resolution calling on Israel to reverse its merger of old and iiew~ Jerusalem. The Assembly sessionap- proved the original Pakistan resolution after rejecting ail resolutions to compellsrael to withdraw {Tom Arab ter¬ ritories taken ta the six-day June war. The second Pak¬ istan resolution Was intro¬ duced after Israel made it clear it had no intention of reversing its merger. The development provided a new opportunity for an informal bloc of Soviet,  Arab and Moslem delegations to de¬ nounce Israel and to demand punitive action agatast it. MEANWHILE   five   Utta American countries—Mex- do, Chile, Venezuela, Hon¬ duras  and Ecuador—began behind-the-scenes talks .-seekingi-^to develop a draft WsolutiOTi'^'oir^KraeUtfadli' withdrawal which had some chance of acceptance by the required two-thirds Assem¬ bly majority.
The second Pakistani res¬ olution would call on the Security Council to take measures to assure com- pltance with the Jerusalem resolution. The Soviet Un¬ ion's Nikolai Federenko said that U the Security Council voted sanctions against Is¬ rael, the Soviets would com¬ ply promptly.
THE ISRAELIpositiimwas spelled out ta two state¬ ments. One was a letter ta rejily to Seei'iBtary'General U Thant's notification to Is¬ rael of the first Pakistani resolution. The other was a statement by Foreign Mta¬ lster Ablia Eban. ta the let¬ ter, Israel said it was con¬ fident that "lyorld opUiiixi would welcome the prospect of a Jerusalem"thri'ving'' ta unity, peace and sph-itUal elevation. The letter, pTe- pBirM' hy Eban; cit^ the Jong history of diiscord ta the divided city and the con¬ trast'With" c'onditions under Israelicontrol.

Thie letter noted that Is¬ rael was clearly competent to protect the holy places and had passed legislation for that purpose.
THE LETTER also, said that the Israel Government was discussing with "rep¬ resentatives of universal religious taterests" to as¬ sure "the tniiversal. char¬ acter of the Holy places.' This was a reference to the presence ta Israel of Msgr.
