The mixed Israel-Transjordan armistice commission decided today to take drastic steps to prevent the recurrence of serious frontier incidents, such as those that occurred during the week-end.

Commanders on both the Israel and Transjordan sides of the frontier–from Tiberias to Eilath–met today for the second successive day to review the incident that took place at Beit Bijrin several days ago, in which several Jews were killed, as well as border incidents in general. A subcommittee was named to expedite the commission’s decisions.
