Moshe Qciy&n Resigns Post Of Israel Cabinet Member Maj. Gen. Mos'ho Dayati, resigned the post, of Agriculture Minister as ;i result of political differences with Premier Levi l.vihkol. It had been clear for some time that GeiieraJ Dayan was not happy in the Eshkol Cabinet.

Room 101. Mr. Gross has specialized in Latin American affairs, and has just returned from two years as Bureau Chief in Rio de Janeiro, during which lime he traveled more" than Km.lJOO miles in !) countries.

His writings have, appeared in the Wall Street Journal, New York Times, The Heporter, San Francisco Chronicle and Think Magazine. "South America is not lost to the Communists yet" says ,Miv Gross, "but it needs our help to assure a solution to its problems. In order to help, we have to reevaluate our thinking about Latin America."
General Dayan said that he had resigned because of. a lack of ."identification" which he .said should exist between a minister and the chief of government. General Dayan, one o[ Israel's more colorful and independentm i n.d e d political personalities, became Agriculture Minister in December l!l."i!i, in the Cabinet of former Premier David BenGurion. He had served as military Chief of Staff from 195:11(1").'!. Mr. Eshkol expressed regret that General Dayan could not find any possibility of continuing in the Cabinet. An official in the Premier's office expressed the opinion that General Dayan's resignation had been motivated by a combination of government and party considerations and personal political ambitions. The General lias been mentioned as one of the leaders in Israel's dominant labor party, "Mapai,". and might one day rise to the premiership. Sources close to General D:)yan said that the disagreements between him and the Premier were not essentially due to divergent policy aims, but to General Dayan's belief that the Pre- ' mier had failed to implement agreed policy forcefully enough.

The Arabs are preparing their annual assault at the U. N. Geus r a ! A s s e m b l y . H will be launched from several d i r e c tions. In the first place they will seek to have their "Palestine Entity" recognized as a "goveriiiiiKiu in exile" and lhereior<» entitled to representation in the United Nations. Tli€ tactics will fail, but it will have nuisance value to the Arabs. The major assault will be on the subject of Palestine Refugees. Each year they use this item on the agenda as a propaganda opportunity to capture headlines. This year will be no exception to their hateful attack against Israel.
Point of departure will he the report siibmitk'ri by Mr. Laurence. V. r.iicheimare. director of UNRVVA, which i.s responsible for the support of the refugee camps. According to advance informal ion. his report is to contain recommendations c a l l i n g for drastic ch-iivjes in tin- administration of the wcliare program. He is to point out that at least 20',. of the so-called refugees are s e 1 (supporting and s h o u 1 d be dropped from the rolls. Further, he is to,point out that as many ;is lOJ/jlOH ration cards to which foodr and aid are b e i n g doled udi. are in the names of pei/uiis deceased. In short, the rolls are padded.
Israelis injured In Syrian Clash y
The Arab:; have threatened dire consequences if this report is submitted to the U. N. It remains to be seen of the Michelmore recommendations will be watered down as a result. At any rate, the U. N. will have to take action to renew UNRWA's budget. Otherwise the agency will go out of existence t h i s year. The United States, which covers '70/;. of the budget, is most interested in f i n d i n g a basic solution to the whole problem. The Arabs, on the other hand, are not seriously interested in any plan which will solve the problem. They prefer io keep the problem as a potent political weapon with which to belabor Israel. Hence their proposal will be completely unrealistic: immediate repatriation of all the Arab refugees to their former homes in what is now

$ Aviv MT. A I—Israelis suffered a number of casualties in the: shooting ajtack by Syrians this week. Israel officials reported. The Syrians attacked an Israeli tractor w o r k i n g fields north of kibbutz Dan near the Syrian border, Israelis returned the fire. The tractor driver was hit in the back by a bullet and a number of border guards were injured by splinters Israeli counter-fire silenced one of two Syrian tanks which took part in the attack. It appeared that the Syrians were placijig tanks for armored gun positions all along the border. The tractor had been working on fields consistently cultivated by Israeli farmers 1 w. i t h o u t interruption by the israei. The debate on this subject Svrians.
will be a painful one for Israel and lor its friends. To no avail will Israel point out that tins relugi-e problem w«.'< created by the Arabs themselves: thai a solution can be tound only within the framework of an overall Middle liast peace settlement between i:;r;:e! and the Arjbs; that the best solution tor all concerned would be resettlement of the Arabs in the lands in wbicli they are now located. The Arab bloc is large. It.-» contacts are many, and its logrolling potential is great. The; U. N. will probably adopt u resolution over Israel's protests, and new el furls will in the main be devoted to seeking to weaken its terminology as much as possible. Tin- Cyprus question, which is due to come up later in the year, will also be a headache to Israel, though this country is not directly concerned. Israel has sought to follow a p o l i c y of strict neutrality in the conflict between Cyprus and T u r k e y. Both countries are nearby neighbors, and Jerusalem is anxious to keep on good terms with" each. Yet when a specific resohi-' tion is put before the General Assembly Israel will be called upon to cast its vote for one side or the other. Abstinence) from, vote may be construed as an unfriendly act by both parties! Israel is represented- at tha U. N. by an able delegation, and at crucial moments F o r e i g tl Minister Golda Meir will IJB present to head her country'* representation. by CAUL ALPKRT
