~ WASHINGTON, Nov. 30-(AP)-- ggne United States will eventually s “snslevedunder Moscow"_ Ben- ator Irving Ives (Rep. N. YJ. said today. if it fails‘ to take the lead in reconstruction of Europe. l-fe spoke on the eve of expected approval by the sonata of a S597.- 000,000 emergency aid fund. “All of Europe, and perhaps the British Isles. is apt to go Com- munlstio within e relatively short time without outside lid," Ives said. Europe would be followed by ali of Asia and Africa, leaving the United States a virtual island

of democracy in a. Dommunistic world. ‘ ‘That would lead inevitably to

destruction of the American peo- ple," he said in a broadcast inter» view "because I doubt very much whether the American people would be willing to gear them- selves to the type oi life that would follow or be prepared for tne inevitable conflict that would arise."

Partition Decision

(By Mohammad Wegdi)

CAIRO. Nov. so-(AP) — With Arub bitterness mounting in the Middle East Syrian demonstrators today set fire to the United states Legation in Damascus and the Arab League's secretary-general asserted his people will never per- mit the United Nations to par- tition Palestine.

A reliable source here said King fbn Saud of Saudi Arabia had agreed to contribute the oil rev- enuea of his kingdom-paid to him by American oii companies and esrimated at $18,000,000 a year-to support Arab military forces to fight partition.

There was no indication the Arabs planned immediate military action, but six Jews were killed and l6 wounded in Palestine out- bursts today.

In Damascus 6.000 youths. dom- inated by Moslem Brotherhood members, marched to Government House and asked for arms and a jihad (holy war). Premier Jamil Mardam Bey told them:

"President (Shukri) Ai-Kuwatly approves your demands because partition threatens not only syrlan independence but the very being of all Arab nations."

On their way to the presidential pinacc the demonstrators set firc to the Legation and to a Legaticn automobile. and tore the Ameri- can flag from a pole. They also looted the Russia-Syrian cultural centre.

In Cairo Abdel Rahman Azzam Pasha. secretary-general of the Arab League representing seven

or 33,000,000 told correspondents the U. N. decision would be re- sisted "by force" and added: ."Ws will right end are" preparing for victory."

There was speculation that the Arabs might await the schedulers‘ ceparture of British forces from the Holy Land by next August be- isre taking organized military octirn.

some Arab informants express- co belief the Egyptian, Syrian and Lebanese armies would be charged with holding the southern and northern borders of Palestine while guerrilla bands aided by tile Arab states would strike s‘. the Zionists.

"German Communists Launch Campaign

BERLIN. ' Nov. so - (AP) -

fermen Communists today launch- d a propaganda campaign de-

signed to convince Germans that F0T€1En Minister Molotov of Rus- sia is the only champion of Ger- man unity at the London Foreign Ministers conference

Under the slogan "the Father- land is in danger." the Commun- ists chnrgcd the Western Powers are seeking the permanent part- ition oif Germany.

Russian-controlled newspapers in Berlin asserted Molotov was do- ing "an invaluable service to the German people’! in demanding es- tablishment of a central German government before a peace con- ferencejs held.

(The United States and British delegations at the Foreign Minis- ters conference have urged unific- ation of Germany. The Western Powers want a fedevalized Germ- an gevernment rather than the highly-centralized regime de- manded by Russia. on the grounds that federailsation would serve as ' a. safeguard against the establish. ment of a new dictatorship).

While the Common‘ ‘ were picturing Russia as a defender of Germany's best interests, the British-licensed newspaper Tele- gra declared the Russians are faging a great new conscription of German workers for uranium mines in Bexvnv.

PARIS. Nov. 30-—(AP)-'I‘he Na- , tionai Assembly tonight authorized the Government to call up 80.- 000 troops to maintain order in France, but delayed until tomor- row further consideration of dras- tic strike control legislation.

This action brought to approxi- mately 800.000 the number of re- rrhits added to the army during tile last two weeks.

Earlier, Premier Robert Schu- man‘s followers beat clown a 25- hour Communist effort to emas- cuiate the measure which provides strict penalties for anyone molest- ing non-strikers or fomenting strikes.

Schuman has demanded the un- conditional surrender of the for- ces which have paralyzed Frailce with strikes involving more than 2,000,000 workers.

Negotiations between the Gov- ernment and the Communist-doin- inated General Confederation of Labor (C.G.T.) appeared dead- locked. The Communist National Strike Committee announced it had rejected the Government's terms for ending the strike. The Committee threatened to continue he walkout indefinitely.

The Premier's friends said Schu- man was determined not w give the C.G.T. any chance to claim a victory
