V An emergency meeting of the U.N, General Assembly has been railed for 5 p.m. (PST) Saiiir day night to deal with the British-French rejection of the As sembly's Middle East cease-fire. WASHINGTON W The White House announced. Saturday the United States will tile two new resolutions with the United Na tions General Assembly aimed at establishing "permanent peace" between Israel and lis Arab neighbors and also work ing out "permanent arrange ments" for continuous operation of the Suez Canal. LONDON Wi Britain and France rejected Saturday the U.N. effort to halt their attack on Egypt, Their air forces opened up large scale attacks on highways, railroads and communications paving the way for invasion. At the same time, the Arab forces of the Middle East struck back. With the Suez Canal's clo sure cutting off oil shipments to Europe, Beirut received reliable information that a pipeline run ning across Syria to the Mediter ranean had been blasted to put a further pinch on oil shipments. Cairo had appealed earlier in the week to Arab workers to inter fere with oil movement. Egypt Claims Sinking Egypt claimed, in a communi que broadcast from Damascus, that her coastal batteries had sunk a British troop carrier and another British vessel off Suez. Such claims are subject to reser vation pending the receipt of ad ditional information. Egypt requested the United Nations to act immediately on the British-French defiance of the U. N. resolution calling for a cease fire, and the U. N. planned a spe cial meeting "as soon as possible" to deal with the rejection. Iraq announced the dispatch of troops into Jordan raising the possibility of a two-front war for Israel. Syrian forces also were re ported rolling into Jordan, whose foreign minister declared there was a "fifty-fifty" chance of an ' immediate attack by Israel. Canal Opening Planned , ; A French military spokesman said the allied ground forces would have as their first task the opening of Ihe Suez Canal. He c'larged the Egyptians sabotaged the waterway by sinking six ships in II. 1 lie r.yyi)iiciiia iiac uaacn-j ed that French-British air action blocked the canal. Arabs struck a blow against: western-owned oil installations. The pipeline of the British-owned Iraq Petroleum Co, in northern Syria was blown up in three places, reports from company em ployes received in Beirut said. The line runs from Kirkuk, Iraq to Banias on the Syrian Mediter ranean coast, Cairo radio has appealed to Arab workers to slop the vital flow of oil to the British and French. Their oil resources have already been hit by the blocking of the Suez Canal. Prime Minister Eden, in reject ing the demand by 64 members of the United Nations for an im mediate cease-fire, told Parlia ment: "There must be a continuation of the action." Police Arllon The French Foreign Ministry similarly said the "police action" must be carried out to halt Israeli-Egyptian hostilities threaten ing ihe canal. Denying Laborite charges that Britain defies the United Nations, Eden said Britain wanted a U N. force to keep the peace in Pales tine. Hugh Gaitskell. Labor Party leader, accused Eden of gravely damaging the moral authority of the U.N. Eden rrtnrtrd that if Ihe U N. would build up an International force "to take practical action to meet a situation which cannot be met by passing resolutions, then I am sure the future of the U.N. will be assured and peace much strengthened." Anthony Head. British defense minister, told Parliament that "so far" there had been no landings on Egyptian soil. CORRESPONDENTS MOVE ATHENS.

At that time, "Harry" pulled a knife and stated, "We're going to Albany," Tilden said. They drove southward and then pulled onto a side road where the two men ordered Tilden from the car. After robbing him of $1? from his billfold (they missed about $185 in a secret compart ment, he said), "they were talking of ways of disposing of me. They mentioned burning and also of driving (the car) over a cliff. Then all of a sudden they got quiet and "boom" that's all I remember." When he came to, Tilden told Salem officers he was lying on the rear seat of the car, covered men were talking about being low. on gas, so he bided his time. Pretty soon, one of the pair checked him to make sure he was well covered, Tilden stated, and soon they pulled into a gas station tit was the Master service station at Commercial and Center streets, police! said.) The time then was about 12:30 .bw,.. . t When the two men got out of the car, Tilden wailed until he heard gasoline running into the tank and then jumped up and out of the car.
