Dr. Fawzi el Mulki, the coun- try's premier and defence min- ister, said Jordan would turn her national guard into a "baby Arab Legion" and give military training to the 500,000 Arab refugees from Palestine who are living in the kingdom. biggest public upheaval of the cen- tury raged today over alleged slights to the colored population during the visit of the Queen last week. The royal tour, intended to im- prove Commonwealth relations, in- stead brought to the surface long- buried resentments, although the Queen herself was the subject of the highest praise and devotion on all sides. 'Focal point of the dispute is that no representative of .the island's 6,000 colored people--two-thirds of the population--was invited to the dinner in Elizabeth's honor Tues- day night. "BIGGEST SLIP" Questions have been asked in the island's Parliament. Hamilton pros and cons of the question. E. T. Richards, MP, told th House of Assembly, "It is the big- gest slip ever made in this century in this country." A government supporter, J. E. Pearson, replied that if there had been a colored person of enough prominence, he would have been invited. There were colored peo- ple in attendance at the earlier garden party, where 800 of the island's elite assembled. The Bermuda Recorder's week- end edition said in a front page editorial that the arrangements for the Queen's visit had turned it in to "an ogre of racial discrimin- ation such as no person could con- template without a feeling of re- vulsion."

JENNER HAS NEW TACK WASHINGTON (AP)--With U.S. temporary impasse today over the questioning of Igor Gouzenko, po- litical crossfire drummed on with a Democratic blast that the Harry Dexter White case was camouflage for a 'serious situation" in the justice department. The Senate internal security sub- committee headed by Senator Wil- liam Jenner (Rep. Ind.) appar- ently was faced with a take-it-or- leave-it proposition: Question Gou- zenko on Canada's terms or not at all. . State Secretary Dulles told the government was right in insisting that it, and not the committee, decide what part of Gouzenko's testimony should be made public. Jenner said he would take it up with the sub-committee at a meet- ing Wednesday. He declined to say what course would be chosen.

Youth Shot In TORONTO (CP) Constable G. E. Barclay today was charged with manslaughter in the death of a 14-year-old boy who was shot in the basement of a dental supply company's premises. The charge was laid following the slaying of Garfield Belfon on mid-town College street late Sun- day night. Three alleged compan-- ions. of the boy were remanded in court today on $1,000 bail each on charges of shopbreaking. They are George Marshall, Frank Fuss and Douglas Richarson, all 16, of Toronto. CLAIMS ACCIDENT Constable Barclay said the shoot- ing of young Belfon through the neck was accidental. Two boys under 16 were arrested Saurday night in the building, the S. S. White Dental Supply .Com- pany. Sunday night police check- ing the premises next door found a window of the White fism open Fight In Darkened Basement and called another patrol car. Police say Barclay went into the basement of the White building and searched amid large boxes and crates, some of them six feet high. He told senior police offiicals after he heard a rustling and shouted: "Come out of there. It's the police." As he approached the crates, one of them apparently was pushed toward him, knocking him back- ward. He said that as he fell, his gun discharged. The Belfon boy, eldest son of a barber, is believed to have died immediately. The basement was in total dark- ness at the time of the shooting, police said. Mrs. Charles McKenna, wife of the general manager of the dental supply company, said she thought the youths were looking for dental gold stored in a safe in the build- ing.
