The Is raelis have been boycotting the ar mistice group since (t failed to up hold their charge that Jordan was responsible for the March 17 am bush of a Jewish bus on the Ne eeb Desert in which 11 persons were slain. - The Israeli government did not mention the bus incident specm cally in its first reaction to the latest killing. Prime Minister Mosho Sharett, refraining from denying that Israeli citizens might have carried out the raid, said .the attack "looks like a reaction to the Klssalon incident." Ho referred to the slaying over the weekend of a 50-year-old Jew- ish night watchman at the little Israeli, village of Klssalon,. not far Irom Natalin across the border. Israel has charged Arabs irom Jordan did the killing. "This does not alter the fact, said Sharett, "that we deplore any act of violence. But we also main tain the basio responsibility is with that side (the Arabs) which again and again starts this constant chain of outrages." Red Germany Demands Told .

Ulbrlcht in effect offered them the chance to keep their military observers in the Eastern zone only as military attaches to accredited diplomatic missions. Ulbrlcht's demand was one of the lirst fruits of the Soviet dec laration Mnrch 25 that it would henceforth assume the same rela tions with East Germany as with other "sovereign" states.

Smudgie ' received unfavorable publicity early In February when he leli deep gashes, in Mrs. Balen tine 'a arm and leg when she in terrupted a grudge fight he jyas carrying on. . . " . According to Mrs. Balentine who assumes all blame for getting scratched, the background of the story goes Ike this: Smudgie and Lady Jade, affec tionate and gentle Siamese, have ruled the Balentine household as their private domain for many years. Siamese, according to all who know them, will never toler ate an Intruder. Stray cats who are abandoned don't find homes et a household boasting a Siamese. So, along last November, some time before Thanksgiving, when a huge, jet black. Persian torn cat showed up at the Balentine home, Smudgie took exception to his choice of residence. "Smudgie called that black cat every vile name in a cat's vocabulary,"- ..- Mrs. Balentine re calls. "I have never nearer such obscene cat language. He would sit at the window and chatter a staccato stream of abuse through the panes. The Persian, however, apparently had made up his mind he wanted to live with us. . He stalked Smudgie at every., possible opportunity, and . being -heavier and a - seasoned veteran of cat lights, plus his advantage of a heavy mat of fur, Smudgie would get the worst of It." This condition of siege ; existed for more than three, months. Un successful efforts were made to drive away the Black Persian. In the meantime, Smudgie had had numerous infected .cuts, .Persian inflicted, treated by the veterinar ian. The day of the big fracas, Smudgie was suffering from ' a painfully swollen mouth.. Mrs. Balentine bad been, shocked to see him come home the night before with one fang broken off and his mouth cut. apparently the result of being hit or kicked. .The feud had reached ah Im passe by that Sunday morning , with both' cats out In the. back yard, staring at each other bnle fully and now and then circling like boxers In the ring. Noting the situation from a kitchen window, she went out to save Smudgie from another clawing. . - : - The cat was in no mood' to be 'Friendly . i?

And he's learned that one of the best ways to do it is through insurance. We are pleased to have helped so many of these Americans stand just a' little bit straighter.

While we are the fifth largest corporation in the United States, we're not in business just to publish' big figures. We are in business to help more Americans help themselves to individual security and inde pendence. To this end we are continually developing new kinds of insurance... using the tool of intensive., research to create modern and forward-looking . policies. Recently, for example, we pioneered a new Major Medical Expense Policy. Now we have re vised and liberalized it still further. This policy 1 helps protect families against financial disaster re sulting from costly or prolonged illness. Its cover age is broadened. ..its cost is reasonable. " We believe this policy clearly demonstrates how independent citizens, working through a mutual company, can build for themselves the kind of insurance program Americans need. (AT 0.
