Syrian Head
Soys Force
Must Prevail

LONDON (JTA) - There
can be no settlement of the
Palestine question except by
force, Syrian Premier ell
Khoury declared in an inter
view with a correspondent of
the Times of London.
The Premier added that an
other round of warfare in
Palestine might be inevitable
before the problem was set
tied. He felt either the West
ern Powers, the United Ma
tions or the Arabs would have
to use force to bring Israel to
a Estate of resonableness." He
charged that the West had
combined to deprive Syria of
a large part of her historic
territory in Palestine.

Informed circles say that
when the TranSVaal National.
ist Party in September, 1851.
dropped its wartime ban
against Jews being accepted
as members of the provincial
division of the party, Mr.. Stry-
dom was largely responsible
for the decision. Certainly no
such decision could have been
taken without his consent,
since he was then, as now, the
unquestioned leader of the
TranSvaal NationaliStS.
At last years celebration of
Israel independence Day at
the Israel Legation at Prae-
toria, Mr.. Strydom proposed
the toast to Israel, on behalf
of the Union Government. Mr..
Strydom has always received
with courtesy all Jews who,
have had official business.
with him, and it is anticipated
here that this attitude will pre-,
vail in his dealings with the.
Jewish community.
The South African Jewish
Board of Deputies and the III
onist Federation sent mes
sages of good wishes to DR..
Daniel Malan. Both organiza-
tions expressed their appreci-
alton of his personal and his
governments friendship for
the State of Israel.

licitation of signatures to the

accompanied by anti-Jewish

Spectators at the commit

lence of the open anti-Semit-

large segments of which act

During the last week of the

were deluged in a carefully

of the letters were so violent

His remarks were the first
made by any Zionist leader on
a message from Secretary of
State Dulles delivered to the
Weizmann Dinner in New
York by U. S. Solicitor Gener-
al Simon Sobeloff.
Mr.. Sobeloff had told the
New York Assembly that "in

the President, S ecre t ary
Dulles is actively engaged in
the evaluation of our efforts
in the Near East with the pur-
pose of Fastening progress to-
wards these policy objec-

out that "this type of review
was precisely what American
friends of Israel have been de-
manding for many months"
"Mr. Sobeloff's statement
on behalf of the Administra-
ton that we will not seek to
increase our friendship with
the Arabs at the expense Of
Israel any more than we
would seek to gain favor with
Israel at the expense of the

demonstrated that they have
decisively turned their back
on the World War II period
when they were critical of the
Jewish community, and tread
the same path Of friendship to
the Jewish community as
every other South African
Government has done.
Mr.. Strydom is not differ
ent from other members of
the Malan Cabinet in this re-
spect. In fact, it was he who
first announced in 1948 that
the NationaliStS-then in op-
position to the Field Marshal
Jan Christian Smuts govern
ment-would recognize the
newly established State of
israel II the party were VOteQ
into power.
That was in 1948 before the
general election and before
Marshal SHUTS granted Israel
de facto recognition. Some OBJ
servers believe that Mr.. Stry-
dom's announcement forced
Marshal Smuts to recognition
on the eve of the election. The
Nationalists, voted into office
in that election, converted the
de facto recognition to de jure
and from the commencement
of their regime followed the
previous administrators pol

Member Of Church
Since 30 Years Ago
To Receive Honors

Easter Sunday this year will
be something special In the his
tory of the Hermon Presbyterian
Church.
A week from tomorrow the
little white church on Persim-
mon Tree road. Cabin John, Md,
VIII honor its only living charter
member, Mrs. Lilly c. Stone.
The event will be the climax
OF the Easter Sunday service in
the 80-year-old country church.
Retains Rustic Aura.
Times have changed greatly
since the small house of wor-
ship was built in 1874. but the
quiet landscape surrounding the
church retains much of that less
hectic era. Except for the auto
mobiles parked before the build
ing and the clicking of golf balls
being hit on the adjoining Con-
gressional Country Club course,
a Sunday morning service today
has the same atmosphere and
countrywide appearance of 80
years ago. Visitors who want to
experience a country church
service are invited to the Easter
Sunday worship.
Mrs. Stone, still remarkably
alert and active at SO, remem-
bers when the church was put
up and the events leading to its
erection.
One recollection deals with
the Rev. j. Garland Hammer.
who preached to Presbyterians
Of the area before the congre-
CATION was begun. A dynamic
and enthusiastic evangelist. DR..
Hammer first spoke to the group
in a nearby schoolhouse. A few
days before one Christmas, van
dals wrecked the school, and
Mrs. Stones father, John D. w.
Moore. wrote DR.. Hammer the
service would have to be post
poned.
Don't you people have
houses?" the clergyman stormed
back. How about using them for
Worship"
This was done. The church
also got its name because DR..
Hammer insisted it be named
after Mount Hermon in the
Bible.

Mrs. Stones significance to
the congregation extends be-
yond her own great contribu-
tions to it and her 80 years of
membership. About 1725 Pres
