country's hostility toward IS
rael, in defense of its selec,
ton of Iraq as the first Arab
League nation to receive a
free u. S. munitions grant.
ThruStOn Morton, asst. sec.
of state for congressional af.
fairs, in a letter dated Aug.
10, took Iraq's side when
asked by a senator about a col
umn by this reporter. The
column told how Iraq men
aces Jews, and listed facts OBJ
tanned at the Library of Con
greSS. Morton defended Iraq
on behalf of the state depart
ment. He said Iraq 'is keenly
aware of the Communist dan
ger" and that it was incorrect
to state that Iraqis wanted
u. S. arms to kill ISraeliS.
Morton went on to charac-
teriZe Iraq as a vital anti
Communist outpost linked
with the United States. This
was done despite the April
25 Iraqi official communique
stating that "the Iraqi govern
ment is pleased to announce
that the U. S. government has
recently agreed to supply the
Iraqi army with military aid
Internationally devoid of po-
litical obligations or aIli-
anceS."
Last January, Iraqi Foreign
Minister Fadhil Al Jamali told
the Iraqi parliament: "Who-
ever called for peace with Is
rael would be guilty of high
treason, and should be hang
ed" In February, he said:
"The destruction of Israel will
be achi ieved only by a
Strengthening of the Arab
states" Zionists noted that
these Warlike statements were
made by a leader of a govern
ment granted free arms by
the state department as a
"bastion of democracy"
Protests
Protecting the arms deci-
sion, Louis Lipsky, chairman
of the American Zionist Com.
mittee for Public Affairs,
spoke for most American
Jews. Lipsky said: 'Iraq has
been the most belIigerent
member of the Arab League
in the continuing war against
Israel. 1t has refused even to
enter into an armiStice agree
ment with Israel. To arm Iraq
at a time when Arab-ISrael
tension has been mounting,
and without a firm commit
ment for peace with Israel,
is to fortify and efnbolden
Arab intranSigence and risk
a renewal of open hostilities."
A defense of Iraq was also
made in connection with facts
regarding Iraqi persecution of
Jews. Morton said: GAS far as
it is possible to know, there
are no Jews in concentration
camps in Iraq." Frequent
mention has been made in the
Iraqi press and radio of the
sentencing of Jews to prisons
and concentration camps. The
newspaper "Al Shaab," for in
stance, told of how long SEN
tences were imposed on Jews
for corresponding with reIa-
tiVeS in Palestine and Sympa-
thizing with Zionism." A few
months ago, Iraqi police actu-
ally seized Jewish passengers
off a British passenger plane
which made a forced landing
in Baghdad.
Evidence Plentiful
Jewish organizations have
furnished the State Depart
ment with lengthy document
ed reports on NaZi-like activi-
ties in Iraq. Copies are on file
in the Near Eastern Division
which could have provided
with ample Recommendation
about Iraq.
During World War II, when
allied fortunes were at their
lowest ebb in 1871, the Iraqi
army staged a prO-NaZi revolt.

part of the Iraqi war effort
against Israel. The horror of
this persecution was such that
virtually all Jews able to es-
cape have fled to Israel. All
their property in Iraq was
confiscated. The hanging of
Jews in public squares of
B a G h d d on trumped up
charges shocked the U.N.

WORTHY REPRESENTATION ANTICIPATED.

In viewpoint it's a good thing Kerr Scott got
nominated for thesU S. Senate in Saturdays primary
There always faults to be found with anyone, and
commonsense should tell perfect could not prop
ery represent imperfect people Kerr Scott like 9TH
er folks has done things different and then from the
way some of might have done them, but there is
denying the fact that he is gogetter and gets things
done
Kerr Scott goes to the Senate at critical time. We
just died. and Alton Lennon, although ikeabe young
man, with prospects before him of developing into
smarter man, surely has had training to qualify him
for that post On the other hand Scott has been Governor
of North Carolina and he has been for 80 years in
the public service including long tenure of the office
of Commissioner of Agriculture.
His experience in this capacity alone should qualify
him to be of immense value in representing farming in
terests, the chief industry of this state
review of the campaign just closed shows that
Scott deserved to win, all things being equal. He
clean campaign yet he called upon to defend himself
against false ridiculous and malicious charges Senator
Lennon must spend a long time living down the deeds
that done his by his campaign management
The kind of campaign for Lennon disgrace up
the Democracy of North Carolina and the principals
who took part in it should hang their heads in shame.
We look forward to many benefits from Senator
Scotts tenure of office in Washington He is of
great ability who has accomplished much against
bitter and stupid opposition He gets things done and
this ability brought North Carolina many benefits during
his term Governor We doubt that any Governor in
times has given the state stimulus opened broad
er avenues to fuller living for the people than Scott
complished with his Go Forward" movement,
AS to Senator Lennon he is fine fellow so far as we
see, and wish him we'll Given little time, and bet
ter associates he live down the things his associates
and his gulbity. He is young, he has plenty
of time in which to grow great But at this time the sit
uation demands seasoned and proven ability in Wash
ngton Scott has already developed the ability give us
the leadership and representation His record as
Governor known throughout the nation will add to his
prestige in Washington We may rest with the
that he will give this state worthy and adequate

We credit game with super in
telligence, and we act accord
ingly. But many of us credit fish
with no brains at all, and act
accordingly. And we get no fish.
The experience that started
me wondering about the COM
parative intelligence of fish and
men happened when the city OF
Lakeland, Fla, hired a company
to make fishing movie and
gave Fred W. Jones the job OF
technical director. To get under
water shots submarine" boat
was used: Jones fished from the
deck and movies were shot
through special portfolios three
or four feet below the surface.
had always believed that the
idea in casting was to be ac-
curate-to hit the bass on the
nose. But that's not the way il
is. Jones and his party found
that when a lure-surface OF
underwater plug, bug or fly
landed within two feet, of fish
he invariably ran away. Some
times he turned and came back
but fish invariably ran away
from a close hitting lure.
1t was found that they invari.
ably ran toward a lure that
landed three to six feet away
But that does not mean they al.
ways hit. In fact, fewer than one
out of 10 struck, even when the
lure was allowed to lie where
it hit.
And there's another thing
Less than one out of 100 o.
those that ran at the lure hit al
the end of the run. They charged
right up there all right, and if i
was an underwater bait they u
sually followed it a bit. Some
even tasted it. If it was a surface
lure, such as a bug or plug, they'c
charge up and then stop six in
ches below it and watch it in
tently. If it was popped" OF
moved sharply, they invariably
ran away. But if it was moved
only slightly, after a long wait
sometimes they hit.

have been told by smart" fish

great and small, sit around

IN JUNE THE GRASS is
green and the earth is fruitful
and the bullfrog bellows in the
lowlands. Dewdrops simmer in
the early morning sunlight and
tiny violets blush unseen. The
barren earth is covered with
growing things, and life eternal
moves on for all things, except
some old men who have never
been young. Now they are
drunk with power and sickened
with completes and must prove
to all men that they, and they
alone, have the power of life
and death over the world. To
them, June is the month when
the SHOWS melt and armies can
move freely and they are free
to sow terror and unrest

WEATHER OBSERVERS WILL
MAKE DAILY BROADCASTS

Wilson, June /. Joe Overman,,
widely-known regional weather
observer, will be heard three
times daily over the Eastern
Carolina Weather Network of
eight radio stations starting to-
day. The programs will origi-
nate from radio station WVOT'
in Wilson. and will be broad
cast also by WGBR and WEQR-
(FM, Goldsboro; WCPS and
IWCPS-FM, Tarboro; WMPM,
Smithfield; WAN, Williamson;
WRRF, Washington, N. c.
Mr.. Overman, whose weather
station is in Wilson, broadcasts
at 7:35 am, 1875 and 6:35 p.m.,.
Mondays through Saturdays, and
at 1920 pm. Sundays.
Mr.. Overman has become a
popular radio personality
through his daily weather pro-
grams, which were begun Is
years ago. After several months
of survey and planning, it was
decided to extend his service to
almost all this section of the
state. In addition to the eight.
stations listed, several other
stations plan to join the net
work in the near future.
Mr.. Overman's weather station
has been called one of the most
completely equipped in North
Carolina, with instruments
ranging from simple thermome-
tiers to those which can be used
with precision only by a person
with years of training and ex-
perience.
The weather station is operat-
ed with the idea of rendering an
accurate, local as well as region
} al weather service to house
wives, farmers, contractors,
sportsmen and others whose
plans for work or play depend
/ on weather conditions. 1t is
through a network of this type
that Mr.. Overman feels he can
best serve the most people.
