DR.. Nelson Glueck, President of
the Hebrew Union College is re-
ported playing with the idea of
having students of the rabbinical
college spend some time in Israel
as part Of the rabbinical course.
It's a good idea, but Israel
would rather have all the men,
bers of the temples come over, in
stead of the rabbis. If all the
members of the temples and syna-
gogues came over for just one
month, tourism would become an
asset more valuable than the dis
covery of oil.

JERUSALEM. Israel - To
the distinguished company Of
men who have had greatness
thrust upon them must be
added the name of Simchah
Mandelbaum.
The Mandelbaum-G Gate is
known to thousands Of Middle
East tourists as the only point
on Israel's borders through
which they may pass from an
Arab state into Israel. 1t is
in Jerusalem, on the border
which divides the Old City,
now in Trans-Jordan territory,
and the new, which is the
Israeli capital. Tourists may
also fly in from British Cyprus.
but most of them want to see
the Old City,
The tourist tends to expect
a gate, probably imposing. He
would not be surprised to find
that Mr.. Mandelbaum was q
hero of the recent siege OF
Jerusalem or of some other
valiant episode in Jewish his
tory; perhaps even an Ameri-
can-Jewish capitalist whose
munificence toward the new
Jewish state is truly remark
able and deserving Of COM
memoration.
AS in the case of that great
power which Gibbon said was
neither holy nor Roman nor
an empire, the truth is some
thing else again. The gate"
is actually a road block about
100 yards long with police
check posts at either end, one
Israel, one Jordan. Halfway
between the check posts,
which are small cabins, the
road crosses an open square
with three other roads branch
ing out. but they have all been
blocked of.
Mr.. Mandelbaum, a textile
merchant. was merely the un-
happy man who was forced to
vacate his small house on that
square in the spring of 1913.

ians do not recognize the state
Of Israel; hence they cannot
admit tourists from a country
which they say does not exist.
Yet Jordanian police daily pass
people through the Mandel-
baum Gate into that same
nonexistent country. On oc-
casion, as explained above,
the same police admit people
from inconsistent" Israel.
AT Christmas. Israel sets up
a special finance officer at their
check point to change Israeli
pounds into Jordan pounds so
that the Mandelbaum pilgrims
won't have to be hungry or
thirsty in the Old City. One
year the Israeli officer ran out
of one-pound notes. The Jor-
dan sentries obligingly took
some larger bills to their bank
and changed them so that the
poorer pilgrims could be ac-
commodated.

Dulles Need Not Expect Much Success
In Role as Mediator Between Two Hotes

On August 81 the Secretary
Of State addressed the Coun-
Gil on Foreign Relations on the
subject of Arab Israel affairs.
The address was eminently
reasonable. 1t was a bid for
peace and reconciliation,
which are certainly admirable
goals. The Secretary pointed
out that the frontier war. re-
sulting from an unresolved
armistice. was injurious to all
parties. He offered Americas
services. as a mutual friend of
Arabs and Israelis alike, to
resolve the differences and
guarantee the security of all.
He emphasized the Arab need
for developing new arabic land
and offered American aid for
this purpose, as well as for
compromising such Palestinian
refugees as might not ''feasi-
bly, be repatriated. He ad-
vocated the drawing of per-
manent frontiers, essential. of
course. to their being guaran-
teed, and a review Of the status
of Jerusalem.
And on all these matters he
expressed confidence in the
possibility of reaching agree
ments. For, he argued, the
present situation. being dan
gerous and no good to any
one, should, in all reason. be
changed.
The trouble with Mr.. Dulles
recommendations is in the as
sumption that there are no
conflicts too deep to be bridged
by the good Offices of mutual
friends.
They assume that reason
and enlightened self-interest
are more powerful than emo
ton. and that hatreds result

fanatic. is unable to believe
that fanaticism can drive men
to suicidal ventures, and sus-
tain animoSities for centuries.
In the Middle East two
fanaticisms were unleashed by
the partition Of Palestine.
On the one hand was the
militant fanaticism Of the
Zionist Jews.
Supported by a millennial
hope ingrained in Jewish reli-
gious orthodoxy, and immeas-
urably inflamed by the re-
crudescence Of medieval per-
secution in Europe, the passion
to separate themselves from
non-Jews. to end their inter-
national status, to recover the
spirit Of the fighting Macca-
bees. swept across the Jewish
communities Of the world,
among orthodox and free
thinkers. among the perse-
cuted and the successfully in

A great speech was deliv-

Wright of Los Angeles. He
called for "a new revolution,
a bloodless revolution, as in

Nation. a revolution dedicated,
as in 1776. not to establishing
any new principles but to re-
storing the ancient liberties.

it was promptly misinterpreted
in some places to mean that
Mr.. Wright was talking about
the issue of the abstract rights
of Communists or Communist
sympathizers or person S
caught in the dragnet of Com
munist connections or aff1lia-
tons. There wasn't a line in
the speech that even remotely
suggested that this was the
basic theme of his approach.
No one in recent years has
made so Scathing a denuncia-
ton as did Mr.. Wright of what
the radicals or Socialist lib
erals-or the "totalitarian lib

them-have done to American
liberties. Mr.. Wright reminded
his hearers that Abraham Lin
coin, a lawyer. had said that
You cannot build character

Mr.. Wright added:
For no apparent reason,
