JkiQgL miiipiiii Ctv v iKintiiir Judean Hills Battle Rages On Highway By CARTER DAVIDSON JKRl SAI.KM. May 11 FI Two Ilaganah brigades drove the Arab off the Tel Aviv-Jerusalem supply route Monday and carried the ragittf fight Into the Judean hills. The road itself, (houjh still slashed by Arab barricades, is safe. The Haganah fighters scored their success at Bab El Wad, ten miles west of Jerusalem. This reporter and three other newsmen walked through the moun tain pass today. Sounds of fighting came from all four sides of us and occasional stray bullets whined above. Deathly Stillness Inside the deep forge through which the macadam road winds us a funnel for supplies needed in Jeru salem, there otherwise was deathly stillness. A Haganah escort got within sight of the first layers of Arab stonework across the road and refused to go on. "We haven't taken those two hills yet." he said, pointing to crests he identified as hills seven and 21. He left him by the roadside and walked on. There was not a move ment in the hills. Not a shot was fired at us, although we were ob viously targets because we walked from the Jewish lines. After climbing over eight barriers of slone, we returned to the com mand post of the Haganah advance battalion. A young and battle sea soned major there expressed surprise that we weren't shot. He sent a patrol out hastily to investigate. A reliable Jewish source previously had said Haganah had occupied all I strategic heights on both sides of Bab El Wad. I A Red Cross representative, Jacques Dereynier, said today the agency is awaiting a written request from Arabs and Jews to take over Jerusalem as a neutral zone. The highest Arab and Jewish authorities already have approved, he said. The conversion of Jerusalem into a Red Cross rone would entail the disarming of all Jews and Arabs In the city. Great Britain Is to give up her 25-year-old mandate over the Holy band fTiday midnight.

Duncan will hear arguments next Friday in Uie suit to determine if state income tax surpluses can be used to pay ex penses of the state gcvernment. The suit was brought by former Governor Charles A. Spragtie in order to get a court ruling on At torney General George Neuner's ruling. Neuner ruled that the money could be used to pay state expenses.

Attorneys for Sprague and the rax commission will ask for a quick ruling in order to get the case be fore the state supreme court. FUNNY BUSINESS Lewis To End Coal Contract WASHINGTON, May 11 iP John L. Lewis Monday gave hard coal operators a 60-day notice of In tention to end the UMW contract covering 80.000 anthracite miners. Lewis told the producers that he ; wants a new contract for the United I Mine workers by July 10. He asked for wage conferences to begin May 20, unless a later date is mutually ; agreed upon. The hard coal industry has been operating since 1946 under a con tract carrying no termination date. out allowing either party to give 30 days notice of termination when ever desired. By giving 60 days notice, Lewis apparently was conforming to a Taft-Hartley labor act requirement that a party wanting to end an agreement allow that much time. Lewis gave similar notice on April 30 to the soft coal operators, whose contract expires June 30. The bituminous contract negotia tions are to begin May 18 In Wash ington. The bulk of the hard coal mines are in Eastern Pennsylvania.
