RC$nsUR"6 REWS.RE71EW, kbEBURS, PRgSOKl FRIDAY, APRIL 30, 1948 NINE Holy Land Peace I Chances Upset By British Decision By DEWITT MACKENZIE (AP Foreign Affairs Analyst) ' The gravity of the Palestine sit uation is emphasi?xd by Britain's emphatic reaffirmation, delivered in Foreign Secretary Bevin's blunt language, that she Is deter mined to withdraw from the Holy Land officially by May 15. , . That smashes any hopes still held in United Nations circles that England might be persuaded to continue sitting on the lid. Some of the more opitimlstic have kept In mind that last Oc tober Britain said she would be prepared, under certain condi tions, to continue administration of Palestine until indeoendence was achieved if the Jews and Arabs settled their differences. However, Secretary Bevin him slef referred to this in his state ment to the House of Commons and added: "But there has been no agree ment between the Jews and the Arabs and, moreover, withdrawal of British administrative person nel has begun and is proceeding rapidly and we cannot reverse the process at this late hour." Truce Now Sole Hope Thus the position is grim, since Arabs and Jews are deploying their troops for battle which seemingly must eventuate unless ; there Is armed intervention from outside, or unless a truce can be arranged. The time between now and May 15 la regarded in U.N. quarters as too short for the movement of suitable forces to the middle east to prevent war. Therefore the peace .organization has been concentrating on a truce. Certainly the time fcj short be tween now and May 15, but one wonders whether, after all, it really is too short to provide a force to keep the peace. There surely would be time to move air craft carriers, with fighter planes and light bombers, and they would constitute a mighty per suasive force, lying off the coast of Palestine. Should such an op eration be undertaken under the auspices of the U.N., it presum ably would involve the United States and Britain, as the major operators of flat-tops. If that isn't feasible, then ap parently the remaining hope must rest in the truce for which the U.N. is pressing. Indeed, a truce would be by far the better solution, since out of that might grow a permanent settlement. Pending the outcome of the negotiations the world at large will get vast satisfaction from the agreement reached, by Arab and Jewish representatives to the PRUDENTIAL LIFE Insuranc HORACE C.

Oregon Veterans Urged Not to Sign Bonus Petitions PORTLAND (Special) Term ing the efforts of Yank Legion, a veterans organization with head quarters in Portland, to secure a $500 bonus for veterans of the last war as "premature," Francis G. Gates, Bend, state commander of Veterans of Foreign Wars, said here that VFW members throughout the state are being asked not to sign bonus petitions soon to be circulated. The petition was filed with the stale elections bureau by Roland C. Bartlett, Portland, national commander of Yank Legion. Sig natures of 18.969 recislered vot ers must be filed by July 1 to uiucv an initiative measure on the ballot in November. Gates said that VFW is taking the stand that legislation pertain ing to veterans affairs should emanate from the state legisla ture and then be referred to vot ers. "Many states have provided bonuses for veterans of the last war. VFW believes that the state legislators are best qualified to siuuy ute question, determine how large a bonus should be paid anu a source 01 lunus lor a bonus," Gates said. Bernard Manslield, Portland stale legislative chairman of VFW, said "putting the question of a bonus before the voters this fall would be Injurious to a chance of having a bonus ap proved at a more opportune elec tion. Manslield also pointed out Reservations for private SKATING PARTIES re available at the Rainbow Skating Rink Winchester "I inct the nicest man down there lust Keck!"
