Death Toll Mounts
In Jerusalem Riots
JERUSALEM, (>P) — Four Brit
ons—two police and two soldiers—
were slain today in a continuing
wave of Palestine underground
violence which has cost a toll of
11 dead and 30 wounded in three
days.
The police were killed on the
Jaffa Road in Jerusalem by at
tackers who fled on foot. The two
soldiers were slain in Tel Aviv by
bullets fi*om a speeding car.
Police said the Stern gang, a
Jewish undei'ground organization,
probably was engaged in a cam
paign of reprisals.
Authorities said the two Jeru
salem policemen, both constables,
were unarmed and in civilian
clothing, on their way to their as
signments in the Mustapha police
station, when they wei'e shot in the
back.
However, Jewish sources at the
scene said one of the constables
was armed, and that as he fell he
turned and fired at the attackers.
They said his shots injui'ed a small
Jewish girl. The wounded con
stable died later in a hospital.
Police said a crew of a patrol
ling ai*med car pursued the at
tackers through an alleyway and
that one was believed to have been
hit by gunfire.
Police fatalities in the current
wave of violence now total four.
One was killed and three were
wounded in Haifa Tuesday when
a gunman, believed by police to
have been a Sternist, fired into a
coffee shop. Another was killed
and one was wounded in Jerusa
lem last night when bombs were
tossed into a cafe. A British sol
dier also was killed, and 27 per
sons in all were injured in that at
tack.
The Greeks and Romans often
levied tributes in terms of pepper,
then valued highly as a staple
article of trade.
