retary General Dag Hammar-
skjold arrived in Jerusalem to-
______1 day on the second leg of
dle East peace mission that ap
parently made little headway in
Jordan.
- A Jordanian spokesman said
Hammarakjold might return to
Amman after his talks with Is-
raeli leaders.
That was taken as evidence ,
that the secretary general had 1
found Jordan’s loaders adamant ,
in their demand for U. N. in-
spection of Israeli-held Mt. Sco-
pus and their refusal to let Is-
raeli convoys take gasoline to
the hill.-------- • •
Immediately alter arriving by
plane from Amman. Hammar-
skjold went to the U. N. truce
headquarters in neutral terri-
tory between Jordan and Israel
for a talk with U. S. Marine Col.
Byron W. Leary, acting chief of
the U. N. team.
Later today he was to confer
with Prime Minister David Fen-
Gurion and Foreign MiniLer
Golda Meir.
A joint U. N.-Jordan commu-
nique issued after two days of
meetings between Hammar-
skjold and leaders in Amman
indicated that the ’alks had
fallen short of U. N. expecta-
tions. The secretary general
looked grim as he left the final
conference.
Three issues are central in
the latest Israel Jordan tension:
H) Jordan’s refusal to allow an
Israel convoy bearing 490 gal-
lons of gasoline to pass through
its territory to Mt. Scopus, in
old Jerusalem; (2) Jordan’s re-
jection of Col. Leary as a U. N.
medliator; and (3) charges from
Jordan and Israel that each is
building fortifications in the de-
militarized zone in violation of
the 1949 armistice.
The communique issued in
Amman mentioned the convoy
dispute and said the Jordanians’
views "having been fully clari-
fied, the secretary general will
now undertake further steps to
-----resolve the problem.!’------------■
Leary’s name was not men-
tioned. but the statement said
the talks covered the work of
the U. N. truce supervisory or-
ganization. which he currently
directs. The Jordanians have ac-
cused him of being pro-Israeli,
but Hammarskjold has ex-
pressed his confidence in him.
Israeli officials said the Cabi-
net had empowered Premier Da-
vid Ben-Gurion to insist that Is-
rael has the right to include
gasoline in supplies sent to Mt.
Scopus. The officials indicated
Ben-Gurion also will press
charges that Jordan for a dec-
ade has violated truce provisions
by building fortifications in the
demilitarized area around Mt.
Scopus.
