Evening Gazette, Friday, August 22, 1958. Dag Heads Inspection Mission (Continued From Page One) against expecting that mere passage of a resolution would solve all the Middle East's problems. "These problems have deep roots," Dulles "They have explosive aspects which can surprise us at any time." Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko, who withdrew hLs own resolution in favor of the Arab plan, also had reservations. He voiced disappointment that the Arab proposal did not call for immediate withdrawal of British and U.S. troops, as did Soviet resolution.

Gromyko warned that the Soviet Union would renew its demand for a military pullout if withdrawal did not come quickly. British Foreign Secretary Selwyn Lloyd promised that Britain would cooperate on early evacuation of her from Jordan. Like Russia, Norway withdrew its West-supported resolution. It also gave Hammarskjold the task of working out a Middle East peace settlement but skirted any direct demand for troop withdrawals. Aside from.the specific mention of troop withdrawal, the Arab resolution actually was largely a rewrite of the Norwegian plan.

Western diplomats believed the Arabs decided to 'orget personal differences and work up their own proposal rather than have it appear that a settlement had been imposed upon them. Reliable sources said Mahmoud Fawzi, veteran foreign minister of the United Arab Republic, played a key role in drawing up the Arab plan. Fawzi kept in close touch with the United State's, Britain and Norway while the Arab resolution was being firmed up. Moscow radio said adoption of the Arab resolution was a "moral and political defeat" for the United States and Britain, that the Western-backed Norwegian resolution had said nothing about withdrawal of the American and British forces while the Arab pro- pc .1 "stresses the necessity of withdrawing American and British troops from Lebanon and Jordan as soon as possible." Municipal Hall "Unsafe" EAST ST. LOUIS, 111.

(AP) Signs have been posted at three entrances of the City Hall declaring it "unsafe." But City Building Commissioner Robert Keeley says they don't tell the whole story. Keeley said the roof and third floor are in danger of collapsing and the "first floor could easily drop into the basement." The 60-year-old building is infested with termites, the roof leaks and the walls of the basement are full of cracks. "The building is full of vermin. The plumbing is in poor condition, the electrical system overloaded and the old boilers are absolutely dangerous," said Keeley. He hopes the building will last until Feb.
