IMPORTANT MOVES BY BRITAIN IN

THE MIDDLE EAST

London, April 27.

Britain today recognised King Abdullah's decreo doubling the size of his Jordan Kingdom by annexing a large area of Palastina held by the Arab Legion since the war with Israel, Simultaneously, Britain gave its final blessing to the young Israel State by raising her recognition from the year-old "de facto" to full "de jure” approval.

But in making these do- cisions, which were an- nounced in the House of Commons, Britain laid down Important conditions.

She reserved her views on the permanent frontiers of Israel and her Arab neighbours until they reach a final peace settlement, and her recognition of Jordan's annexation of Eastern Palestine Carried no decision

the about future of Jerusalem.

Today's decision bring Jordan's new territory under the protez- tive "wing" that Britain And provided in the Anglo-Jordan

Treaty of Alliance in 1048.

But the Minister of State, Mr. Kenneth Younger, soid in the that House of Commons today Britain had no intention of set-

ting up military bases in peace- time in the annexed territory.

The annexation of land East of the river Jordan was proclaimed by King Abdullah on Monday in tenance of the six other States of the Arab League. It makes him one of the most powerful personalities in the Middle East.

Aboul Jerusalem, Bellain went no further today than to record "de facto" recognlilon to Israel and Jordan authority in the areas they controlled.

"It is their earnest hope that the steps they have now taken will help to create stability in the areas concerned and will make a contribution to the peace of the Middle East as a whole."

Winston Churchill, the Mr. Conservative Opposition lender, said amid cheers that Dr. Chain Weizmann, President of Israel, and King Abdullah of Jordan hari both over the vicissitudes of the past 20 or 30 years shown them- selves always staunch friends of Britain.

Mr. Younger replied that. Mr. that Churchill would appreciate the whole question of the supply of arms to the Middle East wan under constant consideration.

He did not think he could, at this moment, add anything to the that statement he had just made.

Mr. Churchill suggested he should bring it to the notice of the Prime Minister. It was a very important one, he said.

He also askeri Mr. Younter to consult the Prime Minister on the fankers continuous stoppage of passing through the Canal Zone is hampering Britain's which efforts to get the Halfa Refinery into operation.

Mr. Younger replied that these and other important matters are nny being nellyely considered by the

Government..

He urged the Minister to aval himself to the fullest of possible opportunity of bringing | these two eminent men into the closest and most harmonious cart tacts.

Mr. Churchill asked if he was quite right in assuming that this was the general path on which the Government was embarking.

Mr. Younger: "Yes, sir. And kis a great pleasure for me the to poclate myself with remarks Mr. Churchill has made about the two gentlemen con- cerned."
