It is a problem of world

"You Americans are making

Israeli diplomat. you believe
that. because the Arabs are not
your friends. and that you can't
count on them. you must coddle
them at our expense. This Is the
best way to start a new war. The

the Arabs feel that they can get

The conclusion, however. is in

number Of Israelis hope fer
vently that there will be no new
outbreak of open war with the
Arabs. They look forward. with
determination if not optimism,
to a gradual settlement of many
of the outstanding issues which
today form the main points of
friction. But they insist the big
problem demands first of all q
basic change of mind on the
part of the Arab leaders. As
long as they refuse to recognize
that Israel exists and intends to
stay. there will be no peace In
the Middle East.
And, finally, there is the i'm
preston that few things are
more stimulating to community
spirit than common danger. If
today Israel exists as a state, 1t

CLEVELAND, April 27.-Hank
Greenberg, the Indians general
manager, admitted today that
he's eager to re-acquire First
Baseman Mickey Vernon from
the Senators, but says Chuck
Dressen's unfamiliarity with the
players he is offering makes a
deal between the clubs doubtful.
Vernon looks as if he's slowed
down a Bit" Greenberg said.
"but he also looks as if he'll hit
and we could use him. Dresser
hasn't been around our league
for a few years, though, and
he's not acquainted with our ma
terial. That makes it tough to
try to talk trade"
Dresser is seeking help at

believed to be dangling Out

we could help Washington in

Vic Wertz, the Indians lone
batting star in the World Series
last fall. currently is idle with
banged finger and Joe Altobelli,
.287 hitter with Indianapolis
last season, isn't regarded as an
adequate replacement at first
base.
The Senators wouldn't be likely
to insist on the Indians tossing a
first baseman into a deal, since
Roy Sievers plays the position
and, in fact, prefers it to his
present leftfield job.
