The U.S. Coast Guard said the crew .of the Panoceanic Faith leaped into the water as the 459-foot vessel 'sank shortly before dark Monday about 870 miles southwest of Kodiak, Alaska. One of five merchant vessels which sped -to the rescue, the Japanese freighter Igaharu Maru, radioed "'some bodies' had been picked up and 'two men were reported to be alive."

HEADING FOR INDIA The Panoceanic Faith, car- rying fertilizer from San Fran- cisco to Inlia, sank sé quickly, the coast guard said, that the crew was unable to. launch. its two lifeboats or two liferafts. There was fear some who jumped from the vessel could not survive. Authorities said a person 'rarely lives longer than an hour in the cold water dressed in ordinary clothing.

The ses-|mainly sion opens at 10.30 a.m. EDT, During the assembly's emer- gency session on the Middle East last July, Pakistan pre- sented two resolutions calling on Israel to 'desist forthwith" from any action designed to change Jerusalem's status. Both resolutions were approved without any opposing Swiss Banks Lend To Britain LONDON. (CP)--Britain has decided to borrow about $100,- 000,000 from Swiss bankers, the treasury announced today. The one-year loan will be added to Britain's official cur- rency reserves and thereby. assist in meeting repayment of a debt to the International Mon- etary Fund by the end: of. this: ear.

In New York City, Augustus Polemis, president of the company which owns the Pano- ceanic Faith, said it carried "'a very good crew." The company, Panoceanic Tankers Corp., identified the master as Capt. John F. Ogles, Alexandria, Va., a master for the company since 1961, and the chief engineer as Harry K. Bradley, Glendale, Calif. The ship, built in 1945, was to have refuelled at Yokohama, Japan, on its way to India. Viet Protest Rally Permit Refused Pakistan Aim would not comply with them. | Arab leaders in Jerusalem charged last month that the Jsraelis had violated the sancti- ty of Moslem shrines in the Old) City, dynamited more than 100 and expelled 650 Moslems from their homes in that sector. Israeli leaders told the UN that the complaints were made by representatives of the Palestine Liberation Organ- ization of Ahmed Shukairy and were not representative of the Arab population. Israel is anxious to stave off intervention by the United Nations or any of the major powers in its dispute with the Arabs because it remains com- mitted to the principle of: direct negotiation.
