If
Truce Chief Asks
Jordan, Israel
To Stop Battling
JERUSALEM un Maj. Gen.
Edson Burns, U.N. truce chief,
has called on both Jordan and Is
rael to Dut an end to the series
of border incidents that has ex
ploded in the middle of the worsen
ing Duez crisis.
Jordan military sources charged
Wednesday that 1,000 Israelis in a
fleet of trucks and armored cars
blew up a fortified police post and
killed 20 Jordanians during a two
hour battle.
This attack, one of the most se
rious along the Jordan-Israeli bor
der in months, was only three
miles from where the Israelis
claimed six of their soldiers were
killed by a Jordan patrol Monday.
The raid was followed by an Is
raeli reDort last night that two Is
raeli guardsmen were killed by in
filtrators Irom Jordan on me roaa
between the Dead Sea and Red
Sea. Another guardsman was miss
ing. Gen. Burns appealed to both
sides to end the "tragic series of
events." In a communique he de
clared that the raid appeared to
be "an act of retaliation such as
has been repeatedly condemned by
the Security Council."
The Tel Aviv newspaper Maariv
said the raid "should teach the
Arabs that Israel's security forces
are on guard and will severly pun
ish every murder and act of sabo
tage."
THE MASON BELL RINGERS (pictured above) will present
two sacred concerts at the First Baptist Church Sunday,
Sept. 16, at 4 and 7:30 p.m. The church is located on

Angeles, Calif.,, have given over 4,000 concerts in the
last 24 years, and are currently on their 15th tour of the

Rothschild Praises
Air Navigation
System As 'Best7
WASHINGTON OB Undersec
retary of Commerce Louis S.
Rothschild Thursday praised the
country's new air navigation sys
tem as "the best we can now de
vise" but said it will be several
years before it can be brought
into full use.
Rothschild told a House Com
merce subcommittee about
"VORTAC." the compromise nav
igation system announced by the
government's Air Coordinating
Committee on Aug. 30.
The House group is looking into
air traffic control prooiems.
Rothschild said that if present
civilian and military navigation
systems had been allowed to de
velop independently they would
have "not only interfered with one
another but would have vastly
complicated air traffic control in
thi rnuntrv "
Rothschild described "VOR
TAC" as a combination of the
best parts of the two existing
electronic systems which tell a
pilot where he is headed and how
lar ne is iruin m kivcu yuim.
The System for civilian aircraft
is known as "VOR-DME" (very
high frequency omnidirectional
radio ran;e -distance measuring
equipment). The military-developed
system is TACAN (tactical
air navigation), more complex
but more precise than VOR-DME.
The two could not operate simul
taneously because they need to
use some of the same radio fre
quencies. Rothschild said a common sys
tem acceptable to the military
had to be worked out "because
it is now known that in any future
conflict the United States may be
a theater of war."

Inspection Fails
To Show Plane
Was Sabotaged

Council backed away from a pro
posal that it institute an investi

conduct their own prone ot tne
disputed final heat of the race.

ently won the race, then was dis
qualified on grounds she hit and
