PALESTINE:
DIPLOMACY

What the Jews of Israel lacked II
armed strength to resist Arab at
lacks against their new state they
had made up in shrewd diplomacy
It was just possible that the deci
sive blow of the Palestine war was
struck when Israel, ~foreseeing mill
tary defeat, agreed to order Its
army to cease fire on all Palestine
fronts if the Arabs would do the
same.
That development, which took
place as the battle for Jerusalem
entered its sixth day in an unholy
atmosphere of rafting guns, burst
ing shell and violent death, made
the most favorable impression pos
sible in the United Nations.
Thus having the onus of prolong-
ing the Palestine fighting shifted
suddenly to their shoulders alone
the Arabs were put on the spot in
the U. N. and in world public opin-
ion.
It was a clever diplomatic maneu-
yer on the part of the Jews but.
at least at the outset Of this new
line of circumstances, the Arabs
were having none of it. They reiter-
ated their determination to wrest
all Palestine from control of the
Jews.
Actually, all the Jews had done
was to issue a surprise cease fire
order in compliance with a U. N.
security council request that the
fighting be brought to a halt.
Neither the security council nor
anyone else had expected the re-
quest to be observed.
But that put it up to the Arabs
who, faced with a deadline set by
the u. NJ, were having trouble de-
Gliding whether or not to cease fire.
If they stopped fighting now they
would have done SO without attain
ing their prime objective-the re-
voking of Israel's claim to SOW
ereign statehood. If they continued
the war beyond the deadline they
would be laying themselves open to
possible security council sanctions
of the economic variety.

ATOM RACE:
Official

Governments of the world never
have been farther from outlawing
the use of atomic weapons. In fact,
the atomic armament race is just
settling down to a long, straight
away dash.
1t is a contest involving astron.
omical costs, with horrible disaster
if not ultimate destruction possibly
lurking just beyond the horizon.
So far the U. S. is well in the
lead, as indicated by the recent
announcement of the development
and successful testing of three new
atomic weapons which are said, to
s~upersede the original atom bombs
in destructive power.
The United Nations atomic ener-
gy commission made the rae Off
cial when, after two years of fruit
less effort to work out some kind
of international atomic control, it
finally voted to suspend negotia-
lions.
Other developments followed
swiftly to prove. that the U. S. is
deadly serious about developing a
powerful and diversified atomic
arsenal:
David E. Lilienthal, chairman of
the atomic energy commission, re-
ported that the present stage of
the commissions tests of atomic
weapons is concluded"
President Truman then author
lied the commission to take
"steps at once for further de-
velopment based on information
gained from the tests"
What Russia was doing about
atomic weapons remained pretty
much of a mystery, at least as far
as the American public was con-
cerned. It was an accepted fact
that the Russians knew how to
make an atom bomb. Whether they
had the industrial facilities to do so
still remained a matter of consid-
cradle conjecture.

miners, as he walked grandly ou'
on the first meeting to negotiate
a new contract between the Goa.
operators and the United Mine
Workers..
UMW'S present contract expires
June 80.
Lewis broke up the discussion on
1948 wage agreements when he OBJ.
jected to seating Joseph E. Moody,
president of the Southern Coal Pro-
ducerS association, at the confer
ence and was outvoted by the
operators.
He was not against Moody per-
sonally. Officially, his unions po-
sition was that the IA regional or
CARNATIONS which comprise the
Southern association must bargain
in IA separate groups, rather than
delegate bargaining authority to
the all-inclasive association.
According to Lewis accepted pat
tern of operation, his balk at the
Southern Coal Producers was the
opening tactical stroke in his 1913
campaign for ar improved miners
contract.
Following that, he could sit back
and present the UNIV wage de-
mands in his own good time. Then,
if the coal operators did not &C.
cede, he could call the annual
strike.
Lewis knew his position was
good. The UMW's recent pension
walkout had left the nations coal
reserves seriously depleted. By
the time June 80 rolled around
soft coal stocks would not yet have
been built up to the point where
industry could stand a long strike.
Barring unforeseen circum-
stances, it looked like this would
develop into another injunction
case.
The union still is under an 30 day
court injunction prohibiting re-
newal of the pension strike; but
the court might rule that another
walkout would be a brand new
strike. In that case a new in
junction might have to be sought
by the government under Taft
Hartley procedure.

Help To Hungry Children

The spirit of charity is one of Americas
most precious resources. Americans seem to
be born with an instinct to fight for the
underdog. Today, when the after effects OF
war are soaring the bodies and souls OF chill
dren left homeless and hungry in ravaged
lands. we are faced with the immediate nee
essitv of giving them food and clothing or
losing the peace. War orphans of Europe
sink in despair. Hungry children of China
lie dying. Filipinos need emergency aid.
Montanans can help them all through one

Montana Crusade for Children represents 26
