United Nations Moods

Will United Nations Secretary
General Hammarskjold succeed in
his mission to pave the way for
peace between the Arab countries
and Israel? This question is
uppermoSt in the minds of Ameri-
can representatives at the United
Nations, since the peace mission"
was actually forced upon MIR.
Hammarskjold by the United
States :. Persons close to the UN
Secretary General indicate that
his first step will be to arrange
buffer zone between the Arab
states and Israel His principal
immediate purpose, they say, is to
get the two sides far enough apart
to prevent the kind of incidents
which begin when patrols are
fired upon from across the armis-
tice line :. If he succeeds in ac-
complishing this emergency meas
ure, Mr.. Hammarskjold plans to
move on to other, more far-reach-
ing peace moves =. The idea of
buffer zone two kilometers wide
was discussed by Mr.. Hammarsk-
jold with Arab and Israeli leaders
when he visited the Middle East
about three months ago The
Soviet delegation at the United
Nations at that time, however, OBJ
jected to such plan because it
involved increasing the present
U. N. truce supervision force
Mr.. Hammarskjold now hopes
that the buffer zone can be ac-
copied if the objectionable feature
of an international police force is
omitted

Tires for Farm
Machinery To Be
Manufactured in Israel

HAIFA, (JTA) = Tires for all
types of farm machinery in this
country will be manufactured by
the Alliance Tire and Rubber Co.,
it was announced here. The firm
has thus far been making only a
limited range of tires for the
house market and even these were
produced in limited quantities.
Production, which has been 80 per
cent for export up until now, will
now be expanded to meet all local
demands and should save Israel
an estimated 100000 spent on the
import of such tires. The Alliance
company whose technical parent
firm is the Dayton Rubber Co. in
the United States, will also begin
production of automotive spare
parts, beginning with those made
entirely from rubber.

In judging the sincerity of the
Kremlin's professed concern for
the rights of nations and groups
outside the Soviet orbit, one valid
yardstick is the treatment accord
ed to minorities in Communist
countries.
The death of Stain. the procla-
nation Of collective leadership"
and the Geneva Conference raised
hopes that the new Soviet leaders
would show more respect for the
human rights of Soviet citizens.
It was also hoped that Stains
successors. would abandon the
anti-Semitic policies which had
reached climax during his last
years, and try to repair the dam
age done TO the Jewish minority
by discrimination and persecution.
These hopes have not been full
filled. Although the Presidium of
the Communist Party now gov
ems collectively, the Soviet Union
remains one-party dictatorship,
with brutal suppression of indie
pendent views, secret trials and
slave labor CAMPS.
The Kremlin's foreign policy
likewise remains substantially un-
changed. It's drive for world domi-
nation now includes melting the
Arab nations against the Western
powers as well as against Israel.
Thus. Stains successors are ready
to exploit anti-Jewish prejudices
for the purposes of domestic op-
preston and foreign expansion.
During the. past three years,
there have been signs of leniency
toward Russia's ethnic, religious
and cultural groups; but this
easing has not been extended
equally to Jews. There have been
a few conceSsions-the release of
the Moscow doctors; the cessation
of open anti-Semitic attacks in
the press; relaxation of the ban
on Jewish emigration; and per-
mission to conduct some public
recitations in Yiddish. But these
moves must be viewed against the

CONGRATULATED ON
ELECTION AS ZOA

David Ben Gurion, Israeli
Premier, heads a list of distin-
guished Israeli leaders repre-
senting all sections of the pop
ulation who cabled hearty con-
gregations to DR.. Emanuel
Neumann upon his election as
president of the Zionist Organ
ization of America.
Messages received from top
ranking leaders, of the World

cables from Zalman Sachar,
chairman of the Jewish Agen-
cy Executive in Jerusalem;
other members of the Jewish
Agency Executive; DR.. Peretz

salem; Pro f e sor Benjamin

brew University in Jerusalem,
as well as from Zionist leaders
and organizations in Latin
America, Europe, South AT
RIGA, Australia and other coun-
tries.
In his cable to DR.. Neumann,
made public by the national
zOA headquarters here, the
Israeli Premier voiced the hope
that under your leadership
the organization which you
now head will do its utmost for
the spread of Hebrew educa-
ton in the United States, the
fostering of pioneering aliyah
and to strengthen the personal
contact of the members of the
ZOA with Israel"

It was pointed out here that
Hammarskjold had warned, in an
earlier report to the Council, that
unless the governments of the
area took concrete steps to ease
the situation, the Council itself
might want to take action to re-
open the entire question. UN
Truce Chief Burns is in the Holy
Land trying to end the mounting
crisis between Israel and Jordan.
The tense situation was also
highlighted this week by reports
that Iraq is sending 5000 troops
into Jordan soon" at the request
of Jordan's King Hussein. The re-
port added that the troops were
to move in before the Jordanian
elections. scheduled for October
81. but that the United States and
Britain had given tacit approval.
But Israel. it was reported. had
advised the United States she
cannot view with indifference the
military reinforcement of Jordan
by Iraq-a country which has
never signed an arnistice agree
ment with Israel and is still in a
state of war with her.
At the same time, it was report
ed in Washington that Britain had
warned Israel it will go to. Jor-
dams aid in the event of "out-
right aggression" by Israel, in ac-
cordance with the Anglo-Jordan-
ian treaty. The spokesman who
made the announcement, how
ever, did not specify what he
meant by outright aggression"

It is thought significant that Djuro Pucar Start,
president of Bosnia, accompanied Tito to Yalta.
Perhaps it is significant that Marshal Zhukov took
part in the Yalta meeting. The Suez issue was
certainly discussed. If the Middle East is trans
formed into another Korea the possibility exists
that Communist Mosems from Yugoslavia would
serve with the Arabs against Israel.
During World War II the Mufti .broadcasted
over Radio Berlin. He urged Mosems everywhere
to join the Nazis and slay Jews His slogan was:
'eIn Heaven Allah, on Earth Hitler"
Far from being actual holy man of Islam,
the Mufti is professional revolutionary agitator.
He did more than any other Arab to foment the
antiJewish disturbances in Palestine in the 1905.
He was originally supported by British Foreign
Office elements. But Winston Churchill later de-
scribed him as the deadliest enemy of the British
Empire,

revolt in collaboration with the Nazi When the re-
