The World Over

TT WOULD SEEM logical that il
some Americans are refused ira
vel visas to Arab countries, our
government should in indignation
prohibit any American travel
whatsoever to those countries. On
ly thus can the equal rights of all
our citizens be maintained.
A second weapon or the interna-
tional Arab conspiracy is the boy
colt of American firms doing busi-
ness with Israel or having Jewish
directors or employees who have
contributed to the United Jewish
Appeal.
Forty-four American firms are
at present on the blacklist of the
Arab League, according to th e
Congress Weekly" Thus far,
again, our State Department has
taken no known action of protest
against this insult to its citizens.
FINALLY, THE Arab League has
organized a hate campaign against
American Jewry. 1t takes many
forms. It equates Zionism wi t h
Communism. It casts doubt on our
loyalty. 1t repeats all the canards
which we hoped had died with Hit
ler An especially vicious spokes-
man has been DR.. Farid zeined-
dine, Syria's ambassador to the
US, who has diplomatic immune
ty by reason of his office.
1t is quite intolerable that for
eign diplomats can insult Ameri-
can citizens with impunity. T h e
entire cynical revival of Nazi pro-
paganda, which suits the feudal
Arab leaders so well, does not suit
Americans at all. We trust that
our State Department will put 9
stop to it-and speedily.

IN LETTER dated Oct. Is, 1855,
the United Nations representative
from Yemen, Kamel Abdul Rahin,
stated that the Arab Information
Center of New York, which he
heads, welcomes the cooperation
and assistance "of professional
anti-Semites in all fields n d
ways"
But, says the writer, this help
must be solicited discreetly, for
the Arab Center purports to be on
ly "a cultural and international
exchange"
The culture which it processes is
nothing more than program of
propaganda aimed at defaming
American Jewry, and indirectly at
destroying the State of Israel.
Several steps have already been
taken. First, American Jewish citi-
zens, including government n d
armed forces personnel, have been
denied entry to Arab countries.
Now, when Russia refused 30 years
ago to honor American passports
held by Jews, President Taft an
swered by abrogating our CONNER
cial treaty with Russia. Today, our
State Department declines to say
whether any protest at all has
been made.

Washington, d. C.--When Mary

we wrote in this column - "a

American scene a strong hub
for the wheels of much progress.
Few IL any political faith failed
to feel the force of her drive, in
the Roosevelt-Truman era. She
became a near-fabulous figure,

That was as much, and as little

say, for as a leader, she was

not be independents fact, which
generally speaking, she recogniz-

almost unlimited support from
Administrations whose cause she
promoted indefatigably, she was
able to surround herself with ex-
perts and professionals in many
fields, who pooled ideas and de-
veloped programs, which she
forthwith sold" with all her ma
tural flair for the dramatic, her
powerful personality, and the
techniques of the thoroughly
trained evangelist that she was.
In all probability, no one as

will ever have such intellectual
and material resource. With all
respect for what she helped to

ventures failed to click IL is to

we set to work to find out what
they were. What we found is
summed up in the question which
we asked, later, of NAACP's Pub

Moon. in the absence Of Execu-
tive Secretary Roy wilkins from
the New York office, and in his
replies, as follows:
