BORDER METHODIST

The Lord is good, His mercy Is
everlasting.

The Attractive Power of the
Cross, was very educational. The

Of all drawing non-believers to a

rewarded. Many men have tried to
conquer the world but have past
and been forgotten but the Son
Of God conquering love is still
shining bright as ever!

Rev. b. C. Cassius, Pastor

The morning worship service

many months and the church was
filled TO capacity. 'Robbing God"
was the subject chosen by Rev. B.
c. Cassius, using as scripture NAL
achi 3:S.
Rev. Cassius pointed out that
careIessness, uncleanliness, sloth-
fulness and negligence were the
main causes of spiritual failures.
The message was a fruitful one
and gave much food for thought,
Music was by the Junior Choir
who rendered many beautiful
numbers.
At the close of the service the
ordinance of baptism was observ-
ed. Candidates were Mrs. Louise
Todd and Miss Edith NJ. Cox. Rev.

The soundest sleepers Of all

Stan Parkman.
The Southern Jewish weekly., 1956-08-10

Last October, after Nasser signed an arms deal
with the Communist bloc the United States be-
came alarmed. Byroade blamed it all on Israel
aggression" and held that Russian arms might
help Egypt safeguard regional stability But
George " Allen, Assistant Secretary of State for
Near Eastern Affairs, was dispatched post-haste
to Cairo.
Allen sought unsuccessfully to talk Nasser out
of the deal But did Byroade support his supe-
rior? Or did Byroade undercut and sabotage his
own government? A recent Nasser speech might
shed light what really happened during the
Allen visit.
Nasser said he learned Allen was on his way.
"Afterward an American official contacted me and
sought special interview. He said he regretted
very much the status of relations between the
United States and Egypt He also said Allen has
a strong note from the United States Government
which might prejudice Egyptian nationality and
prestige I assure you that this note will have no
effect because we shall be able to remove its eff
feet He said that no practical outcome would
emanate from this message and guaranteed this"
Diplomatic sources report that the American
official" was none other than Ambassador Byroade
Is this true account of the behavior of Byroade?
The records show peculiar actions by Byroade
when he was Assistant Secretary of State for Near
Eastern Affairs. He was then supposedly imple-
menting Secretary Dulles ''impartiality" policy
toward Arabs and Israelis alike.
In 1854 Byroade took Israel to task in an ad-
dress before an ACJ convention in Philadelphia

listen to apologies for Egyptian Dictator Nasser.
The revulsion felt toward the ACJ line has, how
ever, not been accompanied by realistic recogni-
ton of Israels basic need truly new U. S.
policy in the Near East would be indicated by the
sale of arms to Israel to balance the flow of
munitions to Egypt
The resignation of Rabbi Irving F. Reichert,
distinguished San Francisco founder Of the ACJ,
was noted in government circles. Rabbi Reichert
asked the ACJ "either to call halt to its obstruc
zionist campaign against the welfare and legiti-
mate aspirations of Israel and its people or
to dissolve ="
Nasser's extremism is now such that U. S.
diplomat who served as his apologist has incurred
official displeasure. He is Ambassador Byroade,
the ACJs best friend in the Near East. Byroade
is being transferred from Egypt to the Union of
South Africa post of considerably less i'm
portance.

had been ignored in London talks
on the Canal question.
But in the criticism Egypt
neither accepted nor rejected an
invitation to the Aug. 16 confer
ence on international control of
the waterway. Diplomatic sources
in London have said the confer

whether Egypt attends.

TO settle the issue fail. Egypt is
concentrating troops in the GAIA

to the Israel border. according to
reports received in Lcndon from

The report comedies with the

reports from Cairo by British
correspondents that if Nasser is
successful in nationalizing the
Suez Canal, his next move will be
aimed against Israel.

Cairo correspondent emphasized.
The News Chronicle, in an edi-
torial, said: eve, with France
