26:
(CP)
There
was
a
recurrence
of
severe
street
fighting
Saturday
in
Jerusalem
between
Arabs
and
Jews.
A
regiment
of
British
Seaforths
Highlanders
was
called
upon
i
to
re-
store
order.-
The
mobs
werejsoon
dlsDersed
but
not
until
after
the
soldiers
had
been
stoned
by
the
Arabs
over
whose
heads
bullets
were
fired.
Five
young
leaders
were
arrested.
Disorders
continued
today
when
trans-Jordan
troops
under
British
officers
engaged
in
long

rifle
fire
with
Arab
snipers.
Hidden
in
a
hillside,
the
snipers
began
firing
into
the
Jewish
settlement
of

No
casualties
were
reported.
The
disturbances,
which
are
becoming

serious
daily,
are
blamed
in
