Hangs on Israeli Pullout He expressed his own hope that, _the problem will be rapidly re solved as soon as Egypt is satis fied that Israeli withdrawal is ac tually taking place.

N.Y., March 5 (/1 3 )--Israeli Foreign Minister Mrs. Golda Meir warn ed today Israel will go to war against the Arabs again if nec essary for the security of the Israeli people. Mrs. Meir told a luncheon session of the UN Correspon dents Assn. that Israel took ac tion last fall for the simple pur pose of making certain the se curity of its people. She will re turn to Israel tomorrow and she said she faced the tragic task of having to tell her people that maybe they better set up the watch towers on the border again. Mrs. Meir indicated that Is rael will not agree to putting units of the UN Emergency Force on the Israeli side of the border with Egypt. . Ben-Gurion declared the aim of the October invasion was deliver ance of Israel from danger of Arab attack, not conquest. He im plied that goal was achieved. "I am keenly aware of the dan gers and drawbacks involved in the settlement we have made," he told Parliament. Moral Responsibility While Israel did not receive the UN guarantees of security against Arab attack that were demanded, Ben-Gurion said: "The President of the United States has assumed a moral re sponsibility toward Israel and 'many other nations have made statements which involve a moral element." With these assurances of sup port for maintaining peace in the Middle East, Ben-Gurion said, "I do not hesitate to advise the mem bers of the Knesset Parliament and the people of Israel to accept this settlement." Exhausted Warrior The white-haired old warrior was tired to the point of exhaus tion. Tomorrow he faces the oppo sition's motion of no-confidence. He is expected to win out.

Dulles' question and answer ex change with newsmen produced these other main points of infor mation: *A ship flying the United States flag should be going through the Strait of Tiran into the Gulf of Aqaba fairly soon—but as a mat ter of normal operation of pri vate shipping and not as a matter ;of special U.S. government plans. • The United Diaticins Emergency Force of about 5,600 officers and men now in Egypt should be ade quate, in Dulles' view, to take over occupation of the Gaza Strip and the coast along the Strait of Tiran when Israeli troops go THE DAILY COLLEGIAN STATE COLLEGE PENNSYLVANIA Permanent Gas Levy Requested HARRISBURG, March 5 (Al— Goy. George M. Leader urged the General Assembly today to retain the state's gasoline tax at six cents a gallon permanently to fi nance the biggest highway expan sion program in Pennsylvania's history. Republicans an d Democrats alike agreed the state should do everything necessary to gain the state's full participation in the huge federal highway program. But, otherwise, the reaction by legislators to the governor's pro posal was mixed. Democrats were all for Leader'si proposal but Republican reactions ranged from downright opposition. to a cautious "show us." The Republican-c on tr olled House has passed a bill to end the, temporary levy on June 1, cutting, it back to 5 cents a gallon. "It would be foolhardy, in my Judgment, to reduce the existing six-cent tax on a gallon of liquid, fuel," Leader told a joint session of the House and Senate. "We are obviously faced with a, flood of highway traffic, which equals in its •emergency pres sures, the emergency of Hurricane Diane itself. We cannot risk the loss of time and accomplishment which would follow our failure to participate in the fullest in the federal aid program." 23 Must Post Bail As Trial to Start On Turnpike Case SCRANTON, Pa., March 5 MI The state Superior Court today directed 23 persons charged with conspiracy in connection with Pennsylvania Turnpike construc tion to post bail within seven days, the first step in bringing them to trial.

Propeller leaves' Plane Slashes Top Off Cabin MEMPHIS, Tenn., March 5 VP) A big DC7 airliner cruising at 14,000 feet cast a propeller today slashing off the cabin top above the heads of 41 passengers. The pressurized luxury cabin, sudenly an open cockpit, filled with a storm of loose clothing from the overhead racks and feathers from broken pillows. But no one was seriously hurt. The pilot, Capt. L. T. Hansard. 43, Smithfield, Tex., made an emergency landing here seven minutes after the four-bladed prop let go, whacking through the roof "like a bolt of lightning." There was no panic. Passengers on the ` - nonstop" flight from New York to Dallas gave Hansard and his four crew members a heartfelt ovation after the American Airlines plane land ed. The whirling prop cut a hole "big enough to drive a earl through" in the top of the cabin; above the wing, about a foot or so over the windows. It happened as the plane was cruising at about 335 miles an hour, through fairly rough air, over Fisherville, Tenn., 30 miles east of Memphis. Due to the tur bulence, most of the passengers ;already had buckled their seat belts. The passengers were checked by physicians at the airlines of fice. All but two elected to con tinue the journey in another plane. Mr. and Mrs. Nat Charney of New York City decided to remain overnight and resume their flight tomorrow. Mrs. Charney's wrench ed shoulder and 'head laceration were the most serious injuries re ported. • The propeller tore away from the left outboard engine—No. I. It weighed about 1400 pounds. It landed in a field near Fisherville.

But they made no im mediate move to extend Senate hearings on the same subject Chairman Emanuel Celler (D.- N.Y.) of the House Judiciary Com mittee said he accepted a South ern request to hold off further consideration of the bill until next Tuesday. Celler told newsmen "nothing would be gained" by balking because there was "no chance of finishing today." But Rep. Kenneth B. Keating of New York, senior committee Republican. said he was "not a party to any such agreement." lie termetrit "part and parcel of a strategy of delay." Southern congressmen have sought to extend consideration of the controversial legislation, par ticularly in the Senate where chances of killing the bill by fili tbuster would be better late in the !session. The Senate subcommittee on constitutional rights today wound up its scheduled hearings on civil rights proposals without receiv ing any demands for an exten sion.
