Israel Refuses To W ithdr aw Troops From Negev Area By CARTER L. DAVIDSON TEL AVIV, Israel, Nov. 19 (JP) — Israel retained control of the N e g e v desert today, the deadline, set by the United Nations for withdrawal of troops to positions occupied before last m onth’s fight ing in the area. After a lengthy cabinet session yesterday, Israel announced it would not order all its armed forces out of the Negev. The government statem ent add ed, however, that all troops which entered the area after Oct. 14 had been withdrawn. This left on ly forces which the Jews said had been in the area since May 15. The statment said this w a s in accord with the U. N. order. The Israeli piew was that the U. N. specified that only forces which enteped.Mhe..southern area after Oct. 14 should be withdrawn. (In Paris, acting mediator Ralph Bunche said he found the Israeli - reply “gratifying.” Tie said it indicated a willingness to accept in principe the Security Counci’ls resolution.) The Security Council resolution of Nop. 4 ordered the withdrawal of forces to bring into effect a no-man’s-land in the Negev. Bunche ordered withdrawal of troops to specified lines to create the demilitarized zone. The Israeli government welcom ed the Security Council decision to facilitate the transition from the truce to a permanen peace in the Holy Land by means of an armistice. The Israeli cabinet also offered to negotiate with U. N. truce commission observers on possible withdrawa of its forces in the southern coastal area which lies northwest of the Negev. The Isra^i reply to the Council order noted “with satisfaction” it was not asked to withdraw from the Negev forces it had there “before Oct. 14 to safeguard the security and independence of Israel and to protect its inhabi tants.'* QUEEN FARIDA BY SEX MANIAC jln the heavy south China Sea to night as a late season typhoon j roared.
