D. FELCHER lltt St. N. -i military sources threatened Jordan Tuesday with more hit-and-, run raids if Arab commandos continue their sabotage raids in Israel and areas the Israelis seized in the 1967 war. The Israeli army said it exer cised the right of hot pursuit Monday for the first time after troops caught a band of Arab commandos in the Negev Desert and chased them 20 miles into Jordan.

Military sources said it was likely the Israelis would use the same tactics again if the occasion arose. In Monday's action, helicopters flew the Israeli troops into Jordan to attack a commando headquarters.

Farm Population Continues To Decline WASHINGTON (AP) The number of Americans living on farms continued to decline last year to 10,817,000, about one out of every 18 persons, the Census Bureau reported today.

(AP) President Johnson was at his Camp David mountain retreat Tuesday for talks with Ambas sador Ellsworth Bunker and other top advisers on touchy diplomatic maneuvering aimed at eventual Vietnam peace talks. Bunker was flying in from Saigon to Andrews Air Force Base, outside the nation's capital, to join Secretary of State Dean Rusk and Secretary of Defense Clark M. Clifford for a helicopter hop to the Camp David mountaintop near this town of 3,000 people.

Johnson planned to get seri ous conversations started with a breakfast conference to contin ue through the morning at least. In announcing the meeting Monday, Johnson disclosed the receipt of a formal reply from Hanoi to his expressed willingness to undertake preliminary. diplomatic contacts with repre sentatives of that Communist regime. "We shall be trying," he said, to work out promptly a time and a place for talks." By talks, Johnson did not mean a full-scale peace parley. Hanoi thus far has signaled that its initial interest is in gaining a promise that the United States will halt unconditionally all bombing of North Vietnam "and all other acts of war" against that country.

The Camp David conference came against a backdrop of dip lomatic fencing in which the North Vietnamese government has implied that the next move is Johnson's. Foreign Minister Nguyen Duy Trinh of North Vietnam told correspondent Charles Colling- wood of the Columbia Broad casting System in an interview broadcast last Saturday: 'In the course of this (initial) contact the American side will specify the date when the un conditional cessation of the U.S. bombing raids and all other acts of war against the Democratic Republic of Vietnam will be come effective; then the two sides will reach agreement on the date, place and level of the formal talks between the Demo cratic Republic of Vietnam and the United States." Johnson, by coupling the an nouncement of the Camp David talks with his statement that 'we shall be trying to work out promptly a time and a place for talks," suggested that diplomat ic efforts to wind up the Viet. nam war would be the principal topic. Traffic Noise New Target In Britain LONDON (AP) Transport Minister Barbara Castle, who last year cut the scourge of drunken drivers, acted to cut down traffic noise.

After bringing a drastic re duction in accidents through roadside breath tests of drivers to measure their drink intake, Mrs. Castle sent to Parliament a bill to authorize spot checks of vehicles to measure their sound output. She set forth a maximum dec ibel rating for each class of ve hicle. The aim is to rid the highways of hot rods, noisy motor cycles and trucks with defective mufflers. At first, she said, offending drivers will be warned; prose cutions will come later.
