Instead, it said that one of the parties involved in the conflict was creating more tension and escalating the fighting. The statement warned that those who are continuing the fighting will be held responsible for the consequ ences. There was no immediate reaction from Junblatt, who had said re peatedly that he would not halt his advancing forces unless right-wing Christian foes agreed to Moslem dominance instead of the 50-50 power sharing which Syria has been sponsoring. The leftist chieftain reported on Tuesday that the Syrians were trying to pressure him into a cease-fire by blocking shipment of4,000 weapons, 7 million rounds of ammunition and scores of artillery pieces to his forces for three weeks.

Although Assad heads a leftist re gime and has been the chief supplier of the Lebanese Moslems and their Palestinian allies, he has intensified his efforts to get a cease-fire since Junblatt seized the initiative from Premier Rashid Karami and other moderate Moslems and stepped up military operations to support his political demands. Junblatt’s program calls for leftist Moslem control of the government to be followed by a shift to socialism of the capitalist economy which the Christians ran before the civil war began last April. Assad may maintain Lebanese capitalism as a channel for Western knowhow and investments needed by the Middle East. Israel has repeatedly threatened to move its forces into southern Lebanon to protect northern Israel if Syria intervenes militarily in the war. Egypt, Iraq and the United States also have warned Syria to keep its troops at home. But King Hussein of Jordan, who is visiting Washington, was reported trying to persuade the Ford ad ministration to support Syrian milit ary intervention as the best hope for restoring peace, and an informed source said the king’s proposal was being considered. eague to formally present ledical school documents ‘extit • retii ie cases ruling wit al reviev g.
