Bible WorOs
for Uooap
PSALM l2l:l-'T will lift up my eyes"

The Psalmist here is Offering most vital sug-
sestiOn that is timeless. Mans morale is often
shattered because he has the view of worn In
stead Of the view of bird that looks constantly
On high. worm is aware only Of the ground beneath
him. the Of the world is unnoticed And although
the whole wide world be luxurious bed, real
heaven, for worms, the worm roasting on
Parched pavement thinks the whole wold is "hell'!
And so is its life.
Similarity, man has his troubles [he's lonely;
he's failed in his job; he's made foolish mistake;
he's been assigned to job he doesn't like) and
4 consequence his attention is SO wrapped up
in his troubles that, like the worm, he sees these
and nothing more. They discolor his whole world.
Yet, like the wom fhe but looked up to the posi-
bilies Of his total life, he would find for himself
world 50 rich and satisfying TO cause his pres
ent trouble to slip in Importance into their small
and proper place.
What man needs is not worms view of life,
but birds view Of his world. He needs TO see not
only his speck Of trouble, which discolors his
whole Iife but the broad exPanse of his world as
bird sees the broad flowing fields. Then he knows
thar, although he has troubles and desert wastes,
he also has grounds for hope and thanksgiving:
mother, father, wife or sweetheart, memories and
aspirations, sunsets and moonlights, dreams and
plans and purposes, God Himself, fertile fields,
nch harvests Of eoundess coloFs and favors. Wnat
man needs to keep his spirit high is broad OUT
look, full perspective, elevated view OF LIE.
It goes without saying that man needs the neiP
Of the Almighty to keep an elevated view OF lite ana
discover as the Psalmist did, my help ccmeth
from the Lord" Regular attendance at the church
of ones choice will greatly aid one in seeing the
world in It's proper perspective, rather than seeing
il as wom sees il. Make regular worship habit:

will continue to grow and will
become a valued industry in

Whether the people Of the

ed, St. Croix is too dependent
on aid from Congress to over
look the tourist business and

Of revenue. St. Croix can be
proud Of its Hotel Association

CHICAGO (JTA) DIR. Ma
hum Goldman, chairman Of
the Jewish Agency, called
upon the us. and the other
Western powers to help bring
about peace in the Middle
East. Speaking at the midwest
area conference of the Ar1e~i-
can Zionist Council, he decrled
the fact that the Arab cOun-
tries have not accepted Is
raePs repeated offers to set
tie their differences and he
warned that the granting OF
arms to the Arab states can
only incite further aggres-
sion.
Referring to the recent
peace formula recommended
by Pakistan's Prime Minister,
DR.. Goldman asserted that
his proposals "are only a re-
iteration of the Arab line" and
that his entire recommends
ton means: yield to the
Arabs as the price of peace"

WASHINGTON (JTA). =
Israel Ambassador Abba Eban
met with Secretary Of State
John Foster Dulles to discuss
IsraePs security problems. 1t
was learned that Secretary
Dulles outlined certain tenta-
tive proposals and that Mr..
Eban gave his governments
initial reactions. 1t is under
stood that resumption of the
discussions awaits the receipt
of the Israel Governments
views.
According to informed quar-
ters, Mr.. Eban intimated that
the foundations proposed by
Mr.. Dulles would not in any
way meet IsraePs concern
over the results of strength
ening the Arab states and of
fering them one-sided military
arrangements.
Meanwhile, Senator George
Smathers, of Florida, in a
statement to the press, criti-
cized the plans of the us.
Government "to make new
grants of arms to the Arab
states" He said it was like
Fighting a match for the fuse

pointed out that Supplying

disaster in the Middle East

October IS, the day on which
the new chairman of MAC,
American 1t. Col. Charles
Brewster, takes over his du-
ties.
Israel approved the appoint
ment of Col. Brewster as a
successor to Comdr. Elmo
Hutchinson. 1t was in bitter
protest over Comdr. Hutchin-
sons refusal to acknowledge
Jordan's responsibility for the
Scorpion Pass massacre in
which II ISraelis were muir
dered in an Arab ambush in
the Negev, that Israel walked
out of the MAC and refused
to cooperate with it.
Jordan has proposed, in the
wake of the announcement of
IsraeTs return that all COM
plants filed by both sides
with the MAC be Cancelled.
The Jordanians made one res
erVation, in the case of 78

The first Arab response,
made, like the Israeli bid, in
the general debate of the Gen
eral Assembly, was a rejec-
ton of the proposal by Egypt.
The Egyptian spokesman ridi-
culed the Jewish States peace
full professions.
The Israeli proposals were
made by Ambassador Abba S.
Eban, head of the Israeli dele
cation, in a speech in which
he also outlined IsraePs posi-
ton on number of world is'
sues facing the General AS
sembly in it's ninth session.
"The only successes in in
ternational relations in the
past decade" Eban stated,
"have arisen from processes
of direct negotiation" He
pointed to the international
agreements on Korea and In
dochina, to the conferences at
Colombia, Manila and London
as examples of the value of
face-to-face talks.
Only last year, Mr.. Eban
reminded the Assembly, Is
rael made vigorous efforts to
bring about face-to-face talks
with Jordan-efforts that
failed only because Jordan re-
jected the call for confer
ence issued by the Secretary
General of the U.N. Israel
