Bitter S©¥iet Speech Assails London (JTA)--Diplomatic obiervers sought this » w k to establish the full significance o( the bitter attack launched on Israel before the Supreme Soviet in MosCO* hy Nikitii Khruschev, secretary-general of the Comniuni.it Party, and "strong man" of the regime. They noted that KhnisChov's speech hud gone much further than any official Soviet statement. |n recent months In assailing Israel and embraclni; the Arab CtU$e.

Growing Threat of War Seen en NE Waslilngton (JTA) —' Growing Criticism of what was tenned a lack of any fixed U.S. policy In the' Middle East, coupled with Warning* that war between Israel •nd* the Arab states must IK headed bff soon, If it U to be headed Off at all, characterized discuslions of tension In that area here this week.

Writing In their syndicated column, Joseph and Stewart ALiop declared "It Is . . . Imrd to see much reason for optimism about What has been happening in the Middle East In point of fact, the highest State Department authorities ore now privately admitting that the betting li even on a Middle Kast war brenklw; out within four months."

At the same time, the ANops reported that there were- two School* of thought on the current situation among American iiollry makers. The first, wliw.e position they, said had been strengthened by the Israel raid Into Syria, urge that no arms should be sent to Israel except under very stringent condition!, and that Israel should be forced to make concessions to gnln a settlement with Kgypt. Tlie Other view i.i that the U.S. has no choice but to restore the balance of power upset by the Soviet arms supply to Kgypt. they reported.

In his rejHjrt on the international situation, Khmsehev scored the American-backed Baghdad Pact, accusing the Western Powers of trying to "Inveigle" the" A r a l ; states into nn "aggressive bloc."

But be said, the Arab people were resisting this attempt and, he added, ".Soviet public opinion has been and is following sympathetically the valiant struggle of the people of Jonlan against the attempts to force their country Into joining the Baghdad Pact."

"We understand tlie yearnings of the people of the Arab nations who are fighting for their full liberation from foreign dependence.

One cannot at the same time, fall to recognize as Cfnidemnable the. acts of tlie -State of Israel which, even since It came into Iwing, has been threatening its neighbors and pursuing a policy hostile to them."

The Soviet leader charged that Israel had been pursuing a policy hostile to the Arab states from the first day of its existence. He added that "Imperialist" powers were using Israel as a weapon against tlie Arab countries.

Arms Loaded Charges Against At British Port

Syria Confirmed United Nations, N. Y. (JTA) — There was certainty here Monday that Syria's proposal to the Security Council for the expulsion of Israel and for adoption of economic sanctions against Israel has collapsed entirely us a result of the latest report from the UN truce chief, Maj. Gen. E. L. M. Hums.

The Council Is scheduled to meet again this week on Syria's complaint arising from Israel's December 31 attack against Syrian gun position which had fired on Jewish shipping on Lake Tiberias. Hut as members of the Council were preparing to resume their work after tlie long New Year week-end, they had before them ii report from O n . Hums confirming c h a r g t s previously made by Israel to the effect that Syria Itself had violated the armistice agreement between the two countries by ordering gun fire against Israeli fishing Ixiats and police craft on Lake TilX'Has. Israel's delegation chief here, Abh.i S. .Khan, showed members of the Council at thi'lr last meeting photo-copies of documents sei/ed from the Syrians by the Israel forces, proving that tlte firing of Syrian guns had been specifically ordered by the Syrian army's high command. Now Gen. Hums, in his report supplementIng an earlier report on the December 11 incident, has told the Council that a Syrian cadet officer, tnki-n prisoner by the Israelis, has admitted he had been ordered tu fire on the Israeli shipping on the lake.

The orders received by the Syrian officers In charge of the Lake Tiberias gun emplacements "contravened the nrmlstice agreement," Gen. Hums declared while shooting at the Israelis "is a violation of tlie general armistice agreement."

War Possible (Continued from Page 1) the country, tho Premier pointed out that during the short period of Israel's existence the present government had to rclxiild the ruins and "set right the mUdnr-ds" of conquerors and foreign rulers from the Hwnan days until the time of the British mandate. "For this reason—but not only for this reason nk>ne -•- our aim has been peace," lie declared. "We wanted peace with our neighbors and cooperation with them for general prosperity in the Middle East. But the trouble is that peace requires good, will on the side of both parties, whereas for war it Is enough to have the bad will of one side only."

Mr. Ben Gurion then went on to cite numerous violations by the Arab countries of the armistice agreement, the contraventions by them of the United Nations Charter, the anti-Israel boycott, the anti-bract blockade by Egypt of the Suez Canal and the lied Sea, and the number of Israeli casualties inflicted by Arab guerilla warfare which runs into many hundreds. The guerilla warfare, he said, did not attract world public opinion because the murders did not provide the world press with sensations.

The Premier recalled how Egyptian representatives at the United Nations declared expressly that Egypt continues to maintain a state of war with Israel. He pointed out (hat there has never been, and there is also not now, any reason for a political or territorial conflict between Israel and Egypt.

'Israel," tie said, "wishes to see a free, Independent and progressive Egypt, and we bear no enmity for Egypt's action in recent times. It never occurred to us to exploit Egypt's difficulty with the great powers."

"No licenses have been granted to private dealers." declared the statement, "for the export of materiel which might lie reconditioned or re-ex[K>rt».'d as weapons of war, unh-ss tho countries to which this materiel is sent from ISritain guarantees that it will not be re-exported or reconditioned.

Mr. Galtslull, in a statement said there is an "urgent need" for an Arab-Israel jwaco settlement."
