July Science Illustrated
Reveals Story of Israel's
Scientific War

Despite the rattle and explosions
of gunfire, the men of science in
the WeiZmann Institute of Science
at RehOvOth, Israel, are pursuing
their own special enemy-the
desert, according to a story in the
Science Illustrated magazine for
July.
Headed by the eminent scientist
and newly elected president of
Israel, DR.. Chain Weizmann, the
Weizmann Institute has the task
of pushing back the desert, ma
lignant wasteland covering more
than one third of Palestine and
much Of the Near East. When
this effort is victorious, the areas
productive capacity and popula-
ton may experience a boom SINH
lar to biblical times.
With 81 researchers from all
over the world now employed, the
Institute is at present tackling
three major detectives; First, the
search for crops suitable for the
salty land of Israel; Second, the
commercial development of those
crops; and Third. the transporta-
ton of water to the desert and the
reduction of the salinity of the
water already there.

sources who claim that it's COM
ponent letters (Chet, Lamed and
Peh) stand for the requirements
of proper Jewish slaughterer.
According to one version the
"Chet" is the initial which repre-
sents "chochom' which means
wise indicating that the true
Jewish slaughterer should be a
learned man; "Lamed" denotes
the numerical value of 80 which
indicates that he should be at
least 80 years of age; and "Peh, -"
which has the numerical value OF
so, stands for the fact that he
should not he allowed to slaughter
once he reaches the age of an
octogenarian.

QUESTION: What is a
"chaIef?"
ANSWER: The slaughtering
tnife used by the "shochet" in the
ritual slaughtering of animals and
fowl is commonly referred to as
"chalef."
QUESTION: Why is the name
attributed to this instrument?
ANSWER: This question leads
to number of interesting obser-
vations. Technically, the term
"chalef" is an old Semitic word
meaning "to be smooth" or ITO

NO PRESIDENT IN 1949?
Continued from page fse

provision, if one candidate does
not have an absolute majority of
electoral votes, the House of Rep
resentatives is required to elect
the President from among the
three leaders.
Opponents of the present system
are hopeful that reform is at last
in sight after generations of agi-
tation. It is certain, however,
that this election at least will be
conducted under the old rules.
And all sorts of things could hap
pen.
On election day it might de-
velop that Dewey had won 265
electoral votes, which would be
one less than a majority. Truman
might have 2ll votes and the
Dixiecrat candidate. Governor
Thurmond of South Carolina,
having carried Alabama, Louisi-
ana, Mississippi, South Carolina
and Virginia, would have SIS.
The election would have to be
referred to the House of Repre-
sentatives. The House would
make its choice from the three
leading candidates, each state
having one vote regardless of
size. Now, let us 60 one step
further and assume, as is perfectly
possible. that while the Republi-
cans have won a majority in the
House. they have done so by
carrying the biggest states, and
that the Democrats actually rep
resent more states.
Then, as Dixiecrat spokesmen
have already pointed out, they
will hold the balance of power.
They could say to the Truman
supporters, you vote for our
man or we'll vote for Dewey.
Your man can't win. You have to
choose between a Democrat and
a Republican"
Thuxnsond Could Win
1T IS then perfectly possible that
Governor Thurmond would find
himself President, although he
would have received only a frac-
ton of the electoral votes and an
even smaller fraction of the popu-
lar vote.
Eleven times in our history,
Presidents have been elected"
with a minority of popular votes
(their opponents having together
a total more than they). Three
times the man gaining Office has
had fewer votes than did his lead
ing opponent. 1t has happened
before and it could happen again.
Evening star., 1948-10-17

If it doesn't happen soon, how
ever, the chances are it never will.
For Republicans and Democrats
are united now in urging reform.
Senator Henry Cabot Lodge has
introduced a resolution which pro-
vides that the candidates will re-
ceive from each state electoral
votes in proportion to the popu-
lar votes they received in that
state.
A Bare Plurality Needed
1T WOULD no longer be possible
then for a party to win the elec-
ton by carrying a bare plurality
in IL states. As things stand. any
party which wins California. ILL
nois, Michigan, Iowa, Massachu-
setts, Missouri, New Jersey, New
York, Ohio. Pennsylvania, Texas
and Wisconsin is in. Strategically
placed, less than "a million votes
could win against 60 million. The
idea of electoral reform is to make
that impossible.
Representative Ed Gossett has
introduced the counterpart of
Lodges measure in the House.
The Republican Convention
adopted a plank favoring revision
of electoral procedure. A Demo-
cratic Congressman told me that
80 per cent of his colleagues will
vote for Gossett's resolution.
The solid South, which
might have been expected to
oppose ON the grounds that it
will lose its solidarity, has
given strong support. This is
because many Southerners are
convinced that under present con-
ditions, Republicans pay no atten-
ton to the South because they
cannot hope to win electoral votes
there. and Democrats pay no
attention to it because they are
sure to win there anyway.
Northern politicians, on the
other hand. from the pivotal
states which have had dispropor-
tionate influence under the present
system. are 50 eager to break up
the Solid South that they will sac
rifce some advantages to do so.
Thus, as sometimes happens
when politicians are pursuing their
own ends. they agree on something
for contradictory reasons - and
the people win. Meanwhile we
have to take the cracked pitcher
to the well once more. And we
can only keep our fingers crossed
and hope that it will not be "once
too often" The End

By CLARK FOREMAN

The significance of Henry Wal
lace's trip south will not be fully told
even in November Its real signifi-
canoe is not that few people in some
places threw eggs, but rather that so
many people in the south listened at
tentively to what Henry Wallace had
to say.
Even the most hostile southern
newspapers regarded the trip as first
page news. In every one Of the seven
states which he visited he was able
to give his views on the south's well
fare to meetings of people freely as
sembled and unsegregated. Such
political tour has been unthought of
in this country by any other candidate
for the presidency. But in the future
those candidates who seek the vote
of the people of that third of our
country which is called the South will
inevitably be measured against the
high standards which Wallace has
set
AS a southerner, | know that SOUTH
erners of all political beliefs admire
a man of courage Henry Wallace
has demonstrated to everyone that,he
has the courage of the highest Amer
lean tradition.
Southerners are supposed to be
more religious than the rest OF Amer
leans. Hundreds of thousands of
southerners heard Henry Wallace
challenge them to live up to their re-
ligious beliefs He was living up to
his. [ predict that the churches of
the south which are already moving
in that direction, will support the
message which Henry Wallace took
to the people of the south. Actually,
Wallace gave heart to the millions OF
southerners who are deeply concerned
The people's voice. [volume] (Helena, Mont.) 1939-1969, 1948-10-01

about this question. Although many
meetings along the route were as
peaceful and sympathetic as any can
didate could desire, the impression
has been given by the press that the
southern people were hostile to Wal
lace. Partly this was due to the re-
porters' own deep sense of shock.
But [ saw enthusiastic crowds greet
him in Norfolk and Richmond, Vir-
ginia, in some cities in North Carolina,
in several cities in Alabama, in Vicks-
burg, Mississippi, in Louisiana, Ar
kansas, and in Memphis, Nashville
and Knoxville, Tennessee. The head
lines have not made the egg-throWers
typical of the south; the people who
listened were the real south.
Artificial Performance
The forces behind young, irrational
egg-throwers were apparent from two
examples. One was the 14-year-old
boy who came up to Palmer Weber,
southern co-director of the Progress
sive party, with pop bottle in his
hand and said the man over there had
offered him five dollars to hit Mr..
Weber on the head with it. Mr..
Weber asked this boy whether he US
ually made his spending money pick
ing cotton or carrying a Newspaper
route. The boy replied, II don't
make any spending money. I don't
have any," So Mr.. Weber with a
gentle ACCOMPLISHMENT gave the boy
quarter and told him not to let other
people get him into trouble.
think of the example in Memphis
where very large and obviously
sympathetic crowd was listening at
tentively until some of the photog
raphers assembled group of young
boys and encouraged them to boo
while they took their pictures. The
artificiality of this performance was
apparent to all.
Every time Henry Wallace was
cheered - and he was cheered fire.
quently = the young boo-ers jeered.
How could anyone take satisfaction
from young men booing references to
The people's voice. [volume] (Helena, Mont.) 1939-1969, 1948-10-01

onstration that in every southern state
it is possible to have a free unsegre-
gated meeting. They rejoice that
even in Memphis where the Freedom
Train was not able to stop less than
a year ago, Henry Wallace addressed
large, free and unsegregated crowds
far beyond the seating capacity of the
baseball park provided - and there
was no evidence, no incident that can
be said to have ''set the south back.
They know that Henry Wallace is the
Freedom man fighting goth century
slavery in the form of segregation.
The Jim-Crow liberals who have
said that the south was not ready for
full democracy have been proven
wrong in state after state The only
real evidence which occurred on the
trip was in Durham, North Carolina,
where the police authorities refused
us the protection which we requested.
Yet the Durham Morning Herald the
day after the speech said editorially
that it was the strength of the Prog
ressive party and the political inse-
curity of the Democratic machine in
that state that is adding some con-
Germ to the life of the states estab-
lished leadership.
Decision in November
Every southern state, where the po-
litical decisions have for decades been
made in the Democratic primaries and
not in November, this year will decide
their political future in November
like the rest of the country.
That means that Negroes as we'll as
white people will participate in the
decision to much larger extent than
before. This attack on the "estab-
ished political leadership" has fright
ened that leadership. 1t is giving
nope to millions of people who believe
with Henry Wallace that the southern
people are entitled to wages and farm
income equal to the rest of the people
If this country. Those southerners
who in every state invited Henry Wal
ace to speak to them believe that his
7isit has greatly strengthened their
cause.

the United States Constitution and the
Bible
The Dixiecrats, or Confederate Re-
publicans as they are more properly
called, had young men flying the Con-
federate flag and trying to disrupt the
meetings. A representative of TIME
and LIFE on the tour wore Dixiecrat
button.
Any person in the south who de-
tends the entire Constitution of the
United States will be called Com
the forces which were trying to pre-
vent Henry Wallace from telling his
story were not just southern forces
but reactionaries of the north as we'll.
In fact, the worst attempts at disrup-
ton were in the mill towns of North
Carolina where the majority of the
spindles are owned in the north. And
it was the steel towns of Alabama,
dominated by northern corporations
which do not contribute either income
tax or sales tax or the welfare of the
state, that refused the people their
Constitutional right of free assembly.
Henry Wallace, in refusing to speak
at Birmingham to the tremendous but
segregated crowd, has marked the
police commissioner of that city as
both un-Christian and un-American
But the police commissioner is not
alone responsible. He was supported
for office by the northern corporation,
the Ku KluX Khan and corrupt labor
leaders,
AS the direct result of Henry Wal
lace's trip through the south, millions
of Americans who were not aware of
the meaning of discrimination in the
south have suddenly been jolted. Sc
is no work of fiction, but a
brutal fact. The conflict between
democracy and segregation
hit home to millions.
Hundreds of thousands of southern
ers who are as anxious to be progress
Sive Americans as anyone in the coun-
try have been encouraged by Henry
Wallace's courage. They have been
given heart by Henry Wallace's dem
