Buchanan News
BY B. L. Logan

Hello Friends:
/ am back in the little town
of Buchanan after a weeks
stay as a patient in the Bur
rell Memorial H O s p i t a /.
Friends, / have decided to tell
you about my most pleasant
stay in the hospital:
The first two days seemed
as though / was being init
ated into a large family. After
this period the daily routine
OF work began by my big Sis
ters, who were the nurses,
and big brothers, who were
the doctors. The daily tasks
consisted of taking tempera-
lures, feeding patients and
giving needles. To me this
work seemed very interesting
and very fascinating.
was a patient on the
fourth floor, and / mean a
swell floor, because of the
wonderful personalities of the
nurses, doctors, nurses aids
and other people who worked
on this floor. Every one was
very conversational and full
of smiles all the time.
DR.. l.. G. Downing always
added spice and humor to the
day by sharing a nice joke
with good lesson in it.
My recreation consisted of
listening to the Brooklyn
Dodgers, play by play; read
ing newspapers, magazines
and beautiful cards.
Mrs. Clara Terry sent me
a book entitled, "The Golden
Journey" by TurnbulI, which
| really enjoyed reading.

Court Sanctions
Appeal by45 for
B&O DismissuIs

BALTIMORE, April 10 (P.-
Federal District Judge r. Dorsey
Watkins has cleared the way for
a group of Baltimore & Ohio
Railroad workers to take their
fight against job dismissal to the
United States Fourth Circuit
Court of Appeals at Richmond.
In effect, Judge Watkins ruled
on Wednesday his court lacked
jurisdiction in the dispute in
volving about As Cumberland
Keyser (W-Va.) area railroaders.
The railroad, under terms of
a work contract with the Broth
erhood of Railroad Trainmen,
ordered the men discharged for
non-payment of dues to the labor
organization after they had
sought to join the rival United
Railway Operating Craft.

man the whole 360-mile border.
The attacks then began coming
from the Egyptians.
Daily attacks. killing one or
two or more people. seldom got
much attention in the world
press at a time when the world
was preoccupied with such
things as Korea and Indochina.
But when the killings began to
accumulate. the Israelis struck
back in force and only this, the
spokesman complained, made
headlines and brought condem-
nations.
These commando raids caused
the latest Israeli Smelling in the
GAIA strip. brought more feday-
cen raids and caused rising ten
sion. In Israel. Col. Nasser is
considered the key to the whole
peace situation. Here is the
Israeli view of the present state
of affairs:
The Arab states signed the
armistice of 1949 but apparently
felt attrition would work even
tually against Israel. Each state
operated according to its means.
Egypt plugged the Suez canal to
Israeli shipping, Syria interfered
with irrigation programs, Jordan
struck at the most vulnerable
standardization by Palestinians
in sudden destructive raids.
Pentup Israeli wrath brought
terrible reprisals. Where the Jor-
danians left off, the Egyptians
began.
The attacks eliminated in
February, 1855. in the big GAIA
strip attack by the Israelis which
so shook the Arab world, followed
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1956-04-13

by others last year and last
weeks Smelling. BY now the
attacks and reprisals are picking
up dangerous momentum.
Egypt has arms from the Com
munists, whether they are in use
or not. At the same time, the
pressure of Col. Nasser's and
Egypt's ambitions to lead the
Arab world seemed to be forcing
him to take action which will
keep Arab appetites appeased.
1t has been advertised he has
200 Soviet Mig jet fighters, 40
Ilyushin bombers, tanks and
even submarines from the Com
munistS. Arabs are beginning to
want to know why he doesn't use
them to exterminate Israel. But
Col. Nasser is not ready to risk
war and his answer to the latest
Israeli reprisal was more feday-
cen inflltration attacks.
There is speculation that Col.
Nasser may have started a
prairie fire he is powerless to
stop: that an agreement for a
cease-f1re or a physical border
barrier might be the beginning
of the end of his dream to be-
come the "liberator" of the Arab
world.
Arab NatiOnalism
Intense Arab nationalism for
eight years has fed the violent
hatred of Israel. 1t may be too
late to put on the brake.
Arabs consider the creation of
Israel in their midst an imperi-
alist act and brush aside Israeli
claims to connection with this
land for 40 centuries. Hatred also
