Israel Premier Says Basic War
Danger Still Exists in Mid-East
Br ELIAV SIMON
United Pihi Correspondent
Tel Aviv, Israel "J.R) Israeli
Premier David Ben-Gurion said
today the basic danger of war
between Israel and the Arab
state still exists because there
it "do sign that any of the Arab
states really want peace."
He said a direct meeting be
tween Arab and Jewish repre
sentatives was the only way to
bring about a- general improve
ment in Mid-East relations and
renewed his proposal for a meet
ing; with Egyptian Premier Ga
mal Abdel Nasser and other
Arab leaders. .
,. The white-haired premier said
also that "without a balance of
iorces between the Arab states
and Israel it is difficult to be
lieve there will be no outbreak
of .war."

Gen-Gurion received this cor
respondent for the first inter
view he had granted since U.N.
Secretary General Dag Ham
marskjold flew to the Middle
East last month to try and pre
vent war breaking out along the
tense Gaza Strip.
In an appraisal of the Kam
marskjold mission Ben-Gurion
said he hoped the "visit has been
useful since he brought about,
at least for the time being, a
cease fire on the part of Egypt
and also perhaps on the part of
Jordan."
. But Ben-Gurion charged that
Arab attacks across the Israeli
border since the forging of the
cease fire "aroused doubt in
either the willingness or the ca
pacity of the Egyptian dictator
to maintain order in the Gaza
Strip."
The premier said such inci
dents as the blowing up of a
house on the Isareli side of the
Jordan border Sunday "raised
skepticism as to the insecurity
of the Jordanian forces."
Ben-Gurion said he was
"afraid . . .. that the basic dan
ger of war still exists."
Cites Balance of Forces
"Egypt, Syria, Saudi Arabia
and possibly also Jordan con
tinue their fervent preparations
to attack Israel, and Soviet arms
are now flowing also to Syria,"
he said. "There is no sign what
ever that any of these states

reallv wants peace.
"Without a balance of forces
between Israel and the Arab
states it is difficult to believe
there will be no outbreak of
war."
Asked if the United Nations
could do more to bring peace if
the balance of power were re
stored, Ben-Gurion said: "Bal
ance of forces alone will prevent
war, but it will -not restore
peace."
Ben-Gurion said the first step
the United Nations should take
toward the establishment of
peace is to secure full implemen
tation c.f the armistice agree
ments of 1949.

'Grass Roots' Drive
Said Needed To Send
Ike Back To Capital
San Francisco (U.R) Gover
nors Goodwin J. Knight of Cali
fornia and Robert E. Smylie of
Idaho told Republican leaders
yesterday, they must launch a
"mammoth grass roots cam
paign" to return President Eis
enhower to the White House for
another term.
"Reviving the enthusiasm of
four years ago," Knight said,
"will require renewed effort
and experienced organizational
ability.'
"Since the record - breaking
balloting of 1952, a spirit of
lethargy has overcome our vot
ing population, -and this wide
spread lack of interest must, be
changed to one of' positive con
cern for the maintenance of the
Eisenhower administration."
Conference Addreiied "
The two Republican state
executives addressed a regional
"Citizens for Eisenhower" con
ference attended by party lead
ers from the seven Western
States. Knight spoke at a closed
business meeting attended by 65
persons and Smylie addressed
100 delegates at a luncheon.
Smylie said the GOP must
make an "even greater effort"
to get out the independent vote
this year than it did in 1952.
"We must be shoeleather poli
ticians this year," Smylie said.
"We must ring the door bells
and tell the story. Complacency
can be our biggest enemy in
1956."
"We will win if, from this
moment, we go to work to build
a crusading organization of in
spired and determined- men and
women; determined to interpret
and sell American principles and
the Eisenhower program of dy
namic conservatism to all the
people."
Idaho Vote Promised
The Idaho governor promised
his audience that his state will
"deliver a greater vote for Mr.
Eisenhower this year than it did
in 1952."
At a special election held dur
ing the business meeting, the
delegates elected William M.
Brinton, San Francisco attorney,
chairman of the groups' North
ern California section. Mrs.
Daniel Lewis, San Francisco,
was elected co-chairman and
Adolphous Andrews, also of San
Francisco, was appointed treasurer.
