Y. Ofi-- The United States worked urgently today on proposals designed to insure that any U. N. inquiry into the Middle East crisis will take a look at the role played by the Soviet Union. This became known as Sir Leslie Munro, president of the U.

N. General Assembly, called a meeting of the Assembly's 17-nation steering committee for tomorrow to begin the first round of debate. A spokesman for the U. S. delegation said Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge was in a huddle with his aides this morning on ideas which the United States would advance.

The probe was proposed yesterday by Syria, apparently acting in coordination, with the Soviet Union. Both said a Turkish attack on Syria appeared imminent. The U. S. spokesman said the United States welcomed the proposal and expressed hope it would clarify it is that threatens oeace in the Middle East." The meeting of the Steering Committee was delayed until tomorrow after some key delegations, including Turkey, insisted they would not have time to receive instructions from their governments.

The committee was expected to urge the full 82-nation Assembly to take up the Syrian-Russian charges on an emergency basis, bypassing debate in the Political Committee. Diplomats predicted the Assembly would begin debate on the explosive issue early next week. Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko, in a letter to Assembly President Sir Leslie Munro of New Zealand, charged that the Turkish general staff, working with American advisers, had made plans for an attack on Syria immediately after the Turkish elections Oct. 27. Gromyko proposed that U.N.

members raise a force to meet any such attack and said Soviet forces would take part. The Russian also endorseji the Syrian demand for a U.N. commission to investigate the situation on the Syrian-Turkish frontier and recommended that it be instructed to report within Uvo weeks its creation.

They hope thus to rally the rest of the Arab nations behind Syria against the alleged Turkish threat. In such a situation Russia then piescnts itself to the Arabs as thei. friend and protector and thu United States as the ally and friend of their "enemy," Turkey.

This maneuver would coincida ovoclly with Russia's evident purpose of breaking down United States and other Western influence in Uie Middle East and substituting Soviet influence in ordef get at the oil fields which ara vital to the Western economy and the transportation centers vital to its strategy. So far the Arab states generally have taken the position that if Syria were attacked by Turkey they would stand with Syria. This is standard Arab unity politics. Bu! countries like Jordan. Saudi Arrbia and Lebanon are regarded here as fundamentally opposed to tix spread of Soviet authority in the area and even Egypt is represented by some informed officials as much worried about the situation.

Secretary of State Dulles told a news conference yesterday that he thought it was unlikely that the present state of Middle East ten- sior would lead to a a outbreak of war. He attributed his confidence in this respect to the fact that the United Nations is watching the situation, "the eyes of the world" are focused on events there and everyone would know very quickly a i a happens 1 WHY DOX'T THEY litfil the Amelia Enrhart field parking lot?
