Curfew Ordered
In Jerusalem
JERUSALEM, (/P)—A dusk-to
dawn curfew was ordered today
for 90,000 Jerusalem Jews, bring
ing to 155,000 the number of Jews
under curfew restrictions here, in
Haifa and in the Natanya area
The action followed a new out
burst of violence which left three
dead and 23 wounded in 48 hours.
The British army was ordered
to lock in the Jewish quarters
here from 7 p.m., to 5 a.m., daily
, “until further notice.”
Some 50,000 Jews in Haifa al
ready were under a similar cur
few. About 15,000 at Natanya
have been under martial law for
a week as a result of the kidnap
ing of two British army sergeants.
Fear of repercussions for the
deportation from Haifa of 4,500 or
more uncertified Jewish refugees
of the Exodus of 1947 was report
ed to be the reason for the extend
ed curfew.
Hebrew newspapers this morn
ing headlined in heavy black type
a story that the refugees were be
ing sent back to France.

Clash With Soviets |
On U. N. Members;
LAKE SUCCESS, (A>) — The
United States, Britain and Aus
tralia clashed with Russia today
over a Soviet contention that a
nation’s behavior during World
War II must be considered in de
ciding whether it shall be a mem-1
ber of the United Nations.
Positions taken in preliminary j
discussions in the membership
committee of the U. N. security
council indicated that the big •
powers had not changed their (
minds from last year when Outer
Mongolia and Albania, favored by
Russia, failed to get a majority in
the security council and Russia
vetoed Portugal, Ireland, and
Transjordan.
The committee is considering
those five again, plus applications j
from Italy, Romania, Hungary,
and Austria.
Alexen N. Krasilnikov, of the
i Russian delegation, said the dele
gates could not ignore how a
' country behaved toward fascism
' during the war.
Krasilnikov also emphasized
that Russia stands firm on the j
1 condition that she must have dip-;
; lomatic relations with a country i
to approve that country for U. N.
membership. That was the reason
the Soviets gave for voting against
three applicants last Augusa.
Col. W. R. Hodgson, Australia,'
declared that participation in the1
, was was laudable but “it is not a
standard for admission.”

Atomic Warfare
Makes Any Victory
Impossible
FAIRBANKS, (A3) — Bee a u s e
through the nature of atomic war
fare “No nation—and that in
cludes the United States—can win
another war,” General Henry H.
(Hap) Arnold, retired head of the
U. S. army air force, said yester
day that the only form of victory'
left in the world is “prevention.”!
The five-star general, now on
an inactive status, told an inter
viewer his statements were “mere
ly meditations of a Sonoma County
(Calif.) farmer,” but added:
“The only proven method to
prevent aggressive nations from
pulling the world toward war is
by making nations afraid to wage
war.”
Arnold said the United Nations
should consider forming a swift
striking aerial international riot
squad based at strategic centers.
This force, he suggested, should
consist of 1,000 to 1,500 long range
planes.
The war-time chief of the army
air forces voiced his views while
reminiscing at the scene of one of
his earliest achievements in
American military aviation. Thir
teen years ago as a lieutenant col
onel, Arnold led the first long
range mass flight of army bomb
ers from the United States to
Alaska.
The longest single hop on the
flight—which included mapping
60,000 square miles of previously
uncharted Alaska and won him
the MacKay trophy .in 1935—was
960 miles from Seattle to Juneau,
Arnold recalled.
“We made that hop in six
hours,” he said. “Today’s army
bombers fly non-stopi. from Seatle j
to Anchorage—twice the distance
—in approximately the same
time.”
Arnold said his present visit to
Alaska was “purely a personal va
caion.” He is accompanied by Mrs.
Arnold.
While here he inspected several
air bases and army installations
which were constructed on his!
recommendations. He sailed to
Seward aboard a tanker, rode thei
Alaska railroad from Anchorage
to Fairbanks, and flew to Juneau.
He reboarded the tanker Sunday
enroute to the States.
Arnold said that on his visit
he has seen tremendous develop
ment in every field except agri
culture and, commenting as a
“California farmer” said he be
lieved no “healty growth on any
frontier area is possible without a
sound foundation in farming.”
' About 125 chinchillas farms are
being operated in the United
States.

Dutch Attack
Indonesians
BATAVIA, Java. (/P)—President
Soekarno said by radio tonight
the Dutch were attacking his In
donesian republic by land, air and
sea. He appealed to the world to
force the United Nations security
council to take up the issue.
A Dutch communique said
Dutch warplanes had attacked re
publican airfields in Java and Su
matra because Indonesian fighter
planes were ready for action.
The Dutch, declaring they
would not attack either the civil
population or non-military objec
tives, were attempting to immob
ilize harrassing anti-aircraft guns
at the fields and the Republican
air force, believed to number
about 40 obsolescent Japanese
planes, many in poor repair.
The Republican radio, over
which Soekarno appealed, said
Dutch artillery had opened fire
south of Bandoeng, 100 miles
southeast of Batavia. The report
said two Dutch planes using rock
ets attacked Tasik Malaya, in west
Java, an dthat other Dutch air
craft had strafed a Soerkarta
Sraden railway train.
