fact that the Weizmann bust is
one of the few to grace his office
speaks for itself.
If Truman has a tender spot for
Israel, Israel reciprocates that
feeling. Mr.. Truman's Memoirs
are being widely syndicated in
the Hebrew press of Israel and
have, I understand, become one of
the best Hebrew "best sellers"
We have no doubt that were Tru-
man to visit Israel and autograph
Hebrew copies of his book, he

Jerusalem or Tel Aviv as he did
in Kansas City.

er queried Truman with regard TO
the Arab-Jewish situation and
Truman replied that "the Arabs
and Jews are cousins and. like
cousins. hate each other" This has

Arabs, like all of us, do not get
along. too well with relatives. A
very interesting book could be

Egypt doesn't like Jordan but
likes Iraq less, and of course Jews

The Christians in Lebanon. a
very large percentage in that

Arab Moslems who like to dorni-
nate them. The Druses in Syria
would prefer the Jews to their
Arab masters. A Catholic nun in
Nazareth in conversation with a
UN expert recently. told. Of the
great water miracle while h the
Jews had wrought in Nazareth. a
miracle incidentally that was ac-
complished with an assist from
Israel bonds.
