Pro-Arab Propaganda in America

lifted by the massacres in recent
years inflicted upon non-Arab
Moslems, like the Kurds in Iraq
or the Alawis in Syria, and non
Moslem people like the Assyrians
and other minorities.
Why do the Copts of Egypt and
the Maronites of Lebanon resist
the existing regimes and the
Pan-Arab nationalism Of these
countries?
Admittedly, the Arabs are reel
ing under the shock of the blow
they sustained in their war
against Israel, but why did they,
in the first place, conspire to
fight Israel? Was distant Iraq
hurt by the rise of the Jewish
state? What loss has she suffer
ed? What was Egypt deprived of?
Or Lebanon?
The truth is that a Pan-Arabic
movement, with a Pan-Islamic
underpinning, is now raging,
threatening to engulf, not alone
West Asia, but Southeast Asia
and North Africa. At least, that
is the ambition of the Pan-Islam-

But why, indeed, did Syria re-

Frances attitude towards the

it could not have left the Arabs

even non-Arab Moslems there
fear it and are ready to combat
it, The fight against the West
proceeds under the sensational
slogans of "Down with imperial

the United States fall for such
shibboleths, though this is moth
ing but a fanatic Arab oslem
fight which has the earmarks of
the Islam wars of the Seventh
Century. It is a fight against the
sinful West, a fight to save Islam
and its adherents in their pristine
purity; and all sorts of schemes
are devised to quell the minori-
ties, by law, by pressure, or by
downright slaughter.

TEEN-AGER PROBLEM.
from Mrs. j. r. r. QrnrlnR


Mrs. r. j., Silver Spring: Yes,
by all means, he should go to
Sunday school or church with his
parents. ! cannot say this
strongly enough. You viii have all
sorts of advice, some Of it self
designated child psychologists who
win advise you not to force them
to go and part of their advice will
run something like this: 81 was
made to 60 as a child and I
learned to hate 1t so have never
gone back" The variation on this
win come from wives whose hus-
bands lazy Sunday ways work this
poor old war-horse to a fare you
well. Or it win come from the
wives themselves, whose own
|church-going habits are open to
improvement.
Perhaps you have seen the now
famous parody on why I Don't
Go to the Movies" One of the
reasons follows the line Of the
above, II was made to go 50 much
when I was q child. I'm tired Of
it," Well. the analogy is just the
same and the reasoning is Just
as absurd. ! am the mother of
two children. My older girl is
l412. Ever since she was 2 years
old and old enough to leave in
the nursery while her father and
I went to church, she has gone to
Sunday school. When she was
able to sit quietly in church she
went with us every Sunday, and
this routine she still follows.
She wouldn't be human If some
days she wasn't tired and fidgety
and anxious for church to be out.
But the habits of thought and
worship she is fixing in her char
acter right now are good. I am
convinced that when the Bible ad-
viSes, Bring up a child In the
way he should go; and when he
is old. we will not depart from it"
it can be safely followed. I do
not mean that we parents should
neglect our duty and leave it all
to the, Sunday school and church.
I notice you said. with his par
ents." and I gather that you are
church-goers yourselves. That is
the only sensible approach. The
child whose father spends his Sun
day mornings on the golf links or
hidden behind the Sunday papers
or snoring in bed cannot be
blamed If he feels resentment.
You say. slightly against his
will" I laughed at that for it is
so typical Of the teen-ager who
wants his way so badly and who
knows so much and yet so little. I
am wondering If your minister is
one who appeals to young people.
There are many, who unfortu-
nately. do not. If your pastor is
young in spirit and mingles with
the young people, your son should
be encouraged to participate in
the activities Of the church. Hav-
ing the pastor to dinner is a fine
way to make a real friend of him
for your boy. #, however, you feel
your minister lacks the ability to
hold your child's interest I would

I read with regret of Mrs. E. I.
WIS sad experience in washing
stuffed toys. The loss of a child's
stuffed toys is regrettable not only
in regard to the expense involved,
but in the actual sorrow which it
brings to the little person who has
la difficult time transferring his
affection to new ones.
I have washed all Of my small
sons toys many times by this
simple method. If Mrs. E. I. w.
is not too discouraged to try
again, she might find this pro-
cedure satisfactory: I make a
foamy suds of a detergent and
scrub each toy individually with a
hand brush, going over badly
soiled areas several times. Rinse
under the faucet, not getting them
any wetter than necessary. Fol-
lowing this I put them in the spin
ner Of my washing machine.
never, at any time, immerse the
toy in water. It is not good for
