Legionnaires Said
Attempted Kidnappers
Of Israeli Farmers
By UNITED PRESS
An Israeli spokesman said Jor
dan Legionnaires tried to kidnap
two Israeli farmers Saturday in
border gunfights in retaliation
for the alleged kidnaping of a
Jordanian farmer.
Spokesman Saul Ramatl said
in Tel Aviv that tractor driver
Ashdot Yaacov drove off two
armed Arabs in a Jordan Valley
settlement and that 90 minutes
later Israeli Rubin Kfar escaped
an attack near the village of
Beisan. Israeli officials said
these incidents and the killing
of two Israeli hikers near Petra,
Jordan, were retaliatory attacks
for the alleged kidnaping. Israe
li again insisted the man was an
infiltrator who would be brought
to trial.
Official Jordan government
circles in Amman said new Is
raeli "provocations" were
heightening tension in the Mid
dle East and accused United Na
tions truce officials of trying to
play down the latest episodes.
Official sources said Jordan
was reserving the right to take
action if the incidents were not
halted, and travelers reaching
Amman from Jerusalem said civ
ilians and soldiers there were
standing by to repulse any Is
raeli moves.
Jordan's Ramallah Radio said
the Israelis had penetrated into
Jordan to kidnap villager Abdul
Rahman Abu said. It again
threatened Jordanian action if
he is not returned.
Government sources in Jordan
said the kidnaping and an effort
to carry prohibited gasoline into
the Israeli enclave of Mount Sco
pus were increasing tension and
criticized the U.N. truce organi
zation for not moving more
swiftly.
The Jordan's especially criti
cized Col. Byron Leary, acting
chief of the U.N. truce organiza
tion, for slowness in reporting on
the latest Israeli acts. They not
ed that the U.N. Security Coun
cil was awaiting his report be
fore taking action.
Official sources in Jordan said
Colorado Leading
In Flu Deaths;
U.S. Totals 1,300
Chicago (W Health depart
ments across the nation Saturday
were bringing their flu-connected
deaths up to date. Late figures
showed that the national total
was fast approaching the 1,300
mark.
Colorado authorities hiked
their early figure of 10 deaths
to 290 attributable to flu in some
way or other, while the Maine
health department added 20 new
deaths, "primarily the result of
flu or its after effects."
Earlier, Pennsylvania announc
ed that 188 persons died as a
direct result of Asian flu, other
types of influenza, and compli
cations of both since the flu
invasion last summer.
A four-month count by United
Press showed Colorado leading
the nation, followed by Pennsyl
vania. New York listed 134 deaths,
Georgia 124, Ohio 83, California
52, Louisiana and Minnesota 47,
Michigan 46, Tennessee 35, Iowa
33, Illinois 23, Maine 21, Wis
consin 18, Connecticut, Nebraska
and Washington 16, and Indiana
and West Virginia 13.
Authorities in most states said,
however, that the flu epidemic
was on the wane and that despite
heavy case-loads at present,
flare-ups were not expected dur
ing the winter months.
News Campaign
Hits Bad Drivers
Salem (IP) The Department
of Motor Vehicles has started a
publicity campaign designed to
bring bad drivers to public at
tention. Lists of drivers whose licenses

mailed to police agencies and
newspapers.
Motor Vehicles Director James
Johnson said some 400 names
were on a list mailed last week.
Johnson said many newspa
pers had agreed to publish the
lists.
the delay in the commission's
verdict was an attempt by Leary
to play down the incident and
"kill its importance." It was the
second time in recent weeks the
Jordanis has complained about
the American colonel.
Jordan's Foreign Minister
Samir Rifai was returning to
Amman today from talks with
King Saud of Saudi. Arabia and
observers in the Jordan capital
expressed hope Rifai would be
able to find a peaceful solution
to the various incidents.
The new incidents came as
four members of the U.S. House
of Representatives began a
round of talks today with Egyp
tian officials in Cairo. They are
to see President Gamal Abdel
Nasser today.

publicity chairman of the United Medford Crusade. The check
represents proceeds from drag race events held at Camp White
in October.
Seattle HP) Dave Beck, re
tiring president of the Teamsters
Union, predicted Saturday an
"all-out" membership campaign
will build teamster membership
to 2,000,000 by 1963.
Beck outlined the program Fri
day at the conclusion of a two
day meeting of nearly 40 organ
izers and top officials of the
1,500, 000-member union.
Beck said the program would
get underway "just as soon as
we can get it rolling" with 200
to 300 checkers "who will be on
the job eight hours a day, every
day."
Checkers Will Report
The checkers will report to
district organizers and where
unusual difficulties are encoun
tered will take appropriate eco-'
nomic action, Beck said.
The campaign will cost up to
10 million dollars in the next
five years.
"We'll get it back in several
years,", Beck said. "We have the
money right now; money is noth
ing to us. We've got 35 million
dollars immediately available.
Diversion Slated
Taking it for granted his union
would be expelled from the AFL
CIO next month, the outgoing
president said the $800,000 the
Teamsters International now
pays to the AFL-CIO "will im
mediately be diverted" to the
organizing drive.
"And this money will be
matched by one million dollars
from the international treasury
for our intensive campaign
which will cover every single-industrial
front conceivable," Beck
said.
