Won't Discuss Politics.
King Idris. who. in his secular
role, is constitutional King, re-
fused to discuss political questions,
beyond references to Libya's re-
|lationS with the rest Of the world
in general. Like many Arabs, he
inclines to speak in parallels.
"An infant state" he said, '.is

stand on his own feet, nor Judge

becomes able to walk, he reaches
his hands to those he trusts. And

innocence, have given him the best

On communism he spoke
strongly. 1.-THE ocean Of commu-
nism which has engulfed so much
of the world cannot be held back
by military force, or by military
force alone" he said. "It can only
be resisted by the God fearing"
Reveals Religious knowledge.
This led us into q discussion Of
compartive religions in which the
King revealed knowledge of the
ethical identities in all monothe-
istic religious faiths, emphasizing
that the Mohammedan world had
always accepted Moses and Jesus
is It's own prophets.
He said that he would like to
see an English translation of the
original Koran without any over

said, the further in time one pro-

teachings become distorted. which
