JEWS, DRIVING AT COSTAL an OF JAFFA; ARABS FLEE BY MEO TURNBR United Press Correspondent Jerusalem, April Jewish forces drove at the Arab coastal city Jaffa today, and the Arab population seeking to escape by sea. Simultaneously, the evacuating British pulled all except about 20 government employes out of Jerusalem, where the last British controls were loosening swiftly. There report that British evacuation of the holy city would be completed by May 5. The bitter Jaffa fighting turned against the Arab defenders of the city of about 70,000 when Haganah Jewish militia joined Ir'gun Leiimi attackers in thrusts against the city. The Haganah thrust from the South brought the Arab forces in included a battalion of the Arab legion of King Abdullah of attack from three sides.

Their backs to the sea. Panic-stricken Arab citizens were reported rushing to Egyptian and Lebanese schooners and sailing vessels in the harbor to leave the fighting area. The business and residential quarters of Jaffa were pounded all night by Irgun Zvai Leumi mortar shells after the Irgunists captured Arab strong-points in. the Men- shiya quarter in the northern district of the. city.

Irgunists also held the Salame Road and Abu Kebir, on Jaffa's southeast corner, and were pushing hard from there, apparently seeking to squeeze out Arab positions in the no man's land be- tween Jaffa, and the all-Jewish city of Tel Aviv to the north. That would make possible a junction with Irgunists in- the Menshiya area. At 3 a. Haganah troops were thrown into the fighting. They attacked from due south of Jaffa, and were reported making progress against strong Arab resistance.

The Arab legionnaires appeared to be the backbone of Arab defense. Haganah also strengthened emplacements on the Jerusalem-Jaffa road outside the city. This was the only route along which Arab reinforcements could come. Only yesterday" Haganah had condemned the Irgunist attack on Jaffa, but the decision to join it apparently was reached at an orange grove conference of leaders of the two groups outside Tel Aviv yesterday in which'coordination of forces was agreed upon. The British had threatened to take a hand in fighting against Jews if the attack on Jaffa continued, but this seemed unlikely.

It did not appear that the British had strength available for such a purpose. Two sisters in Missouri married two brothers; making them sisters-in-law. Now they can fuss more than ever!
