egate to the security council.
"1 will be glad to do So" said
MIR. Malik. 'tIt is a we1l-known fact
that Goliath was a friend of free
peoples everywhere. He was going
peacefully about his business when
he was attacked by a vassal OF the
ruling circles. There are those who

flunkies of the capitalistic states

Runt' and 'Pewee,'" said Mr..
Malik. 1.-THE giant in the dispute
was a man named David. I am
pleased to introduce photostatic
copies of records showing he was
nine feet tall"
Glow taIl?" asked a child.
"Ten feet" said MI. Malik.
''What was that?" asked a
translator.
"Eleven feet" said Mr..
Malik. "And he wore a helmet
Of brass and a coat of mail
weighing five thousand shekels
Of brass. The staff Of his spear
was like a weaver's BEAM"
Eve thought it was Goliath
who wore all that armor," said
the children.
"You have been victims Of i'm
perialistic propaganda. It was
David. He was the aggressOr.
Goliath was a wholly inOffen-
sive fellow with a sling and q
few pebbles"
''That was David who had to
depend on the sling and peb-
bles," insisted the Riddles.
ct am sorry to see that you
are tools of the obstructionist
ruling circles, willingly swallow
ing the stories they so brutally
circulate" said MI. Malik.
'The matter of David and Go
Hath is hereby closed"
Cant we hear the story of Gin

asked the Riddles.
'It is illegally on the agenda
but let me brief you quickly on thi.
case, in the interest of truth. Gin
dereIla wound up married. to roy

of the ridiculous efforts of gaulei
tiers to put them in an unfavorable
light. They we're determined to ge
along on their OWN. They sought NJ
alliance with the fairy godmother
They firmly rejected the white
mice and the pumpkin approach
which is the familiar routine O.
the craven monopolists."
"Can we hear Red Riding Hooc

Malik. SIT is Illegal to seat Mis-!

Malik. 1.-THE aggressiveness o
grandmotners and the lunch-baske
approach of their grandchildren
constitute a well-known technique
used by %terrorists for provoking
an attack. No wolf is safe from ag

"That amt the way we hear'
it," said the kiddies.
"You are vicious obstructionist
