ISRAEL OCCUPIES ENTIRE GAZA STRIP
How this transcription was made
The scan is the folio line and the banner headline; there is no body text on it to transcribe. The folio reads 58TH YEAR OF SERVICE · PORT CHESTER, N. Y., FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 2, 1956 · SEVEN CENTS, which is where the city comes from.
Context added by this archive
Port Chester, New York, Friday 2 November 1956, across the whole front page. The verb is occupies, printed flat in the largest type the paper had, with no quotation marks and no attribution. A century of argument about that word is in this archive; in 1956 it was simply the headline.

This record is part of Covering Palestine, an archive of American newspaper clippings about Palestinians, 1724 to 2023. Researched and assembled by Maria Robles.
The clipping belongs to the newspaper that printed it, or to the news agency that supplied the copy. It is reproduced here for research, criticism and commentary. A city here is where the newspaper was published, not where the story came from, and on most records it was taken from the masthead.
