To many persons 1t looked as
though the United States, in aban.
doning its support of the Palestine
partition plan. had pulled a "Pon-
thus PLATE" on the same scene
where the procurator of Judea had
washed his hands not quite 1000
years ago to sanction the Cruel
fixion. .
In reversing its role in the par
tition struggle. the U. S. proposed
that the Holy Land be made a

Jews and Arabs a chance to reach

carried out except by force. and

against the idea Of sending troops
to Palestine.
It was ironic that the American

the partition plan was undoubtedly
the death blow to that plan which
never would have been adopted by
the U.N. in the first place II II had
NOT been for American pressure and
influence.

being unlawfully held and there
upon awarded custody to the father.

folk brought the girl to Fredericks-
burg when she was visiting him

very poor quarters.
Mrs. Voolfolk, who since remar-
ried. said she was having tempo
rary housing difficulties and had

5ltion on the point in an interview
