 Won Morris His Third Award

Our editorial page cartoonist, John Milt Morris, last year won another Freedom Foundation award-his third.
 The winning cartoon, appear ing on the editorial page of this issue of The Nugget, shows the American torch of freedom as still the hopep fof the worlds oppressed peoples. It is particu- larly appropriate today in view of the recent workers revolt in Poland,
 The award is for contribution to the American way of life. Nor ris achieved similar recognition in 1850 and again in 1851. He has been a winner also of a Lincoln Foundation award.
 Born in California, Morris worked on newspapers there and in New York City before joining The Associated Press in 1855. He has been drawing news cartoons for seven years. They are dis tributed nationally by AP News features.

Removal of Remains Completed From One of Two Crashed Airliners

remains of an undetermined number of the 70 victims aboard the Constellation.
 Frank Bush, VIVA vice presi- dent who combed through the wreckage, said he didn't have "the faintest idea how many bod ies the 26 sacks represent"
 Bush said apparently some of the Consultations outer surfaces such as stabilized fins-had come off as the plane plunged to the bottom of he canyon. s Reaching the VIVA wreckage was a difficult, dangerous job. Getting to what is left of the DC-7 is even more so.
 All the remains are being talk en to Flagstaff for possible iden- tification.
 A group of 10 UAL men. from Denver, described as experienced mountaineers, were among those working in the gorge today. They were veterans of the Medicine Bow crash of Oct. 6, 1855, near Laramie, Wyo., in which 66 per- sons died.
 Until the Grand Canyon disas- ter, thet was the worst conner cial plane crash in the United States. It presented. similar re- covery problems.
 There were these other devel- opments:
 l. A recovery team and a group of investigators stranded on the jagged butte where the T w A plane crashed overnight were flown out this morning.
 2. The Civil Aeronautics Ad- ministration reported that both airliners-a IVA Super Constel- lation with 70 aboard and Unit ed Air Lines DC-7 carrying 58- were off their courses when they went down.
 3. Sen. Smathers D-FlO de- manded in Washington that the CAA, which controls the nations airways, be investigated.

 Then they turned their atten- ton to attempts to reach the more inaccessible peak on which ruins of United Air Lines DC-7 are scattered.

success. Even nature. For the
rains held off until Monday
night, November 6. This rain,
ushering in the winter, was
preceded by clear, warm days,
perfect for the Israel Air
Force to operate at peak eff
cheney.
NOW THE FUTURE is
vague, the constellation of
events which gave birth to the
"Seven days" are clearly dis
cernible. They began a year
ago when Egypt concluded the
Czech" arms deal with Rus
sia. This gave Russia a foot
hold in the Middle East. Al
one jump, the U.S.S.R. pole
vaulted the Baghad Pact, out
flanking Western efforts tc
keep her out of the Middle
East.
The West, which thought il
could still come to terms with
Egypt's Nasser, lost all hope
when that country unilateral
ly nationalized the SueZ Canal
jeopardizing the lifeline OF
Britain.
To further anger the West
especially France, Egypt be
gan shipping arms to the Al

gerian rebels To put it blunt
ly, Egypt headed the "black-
list" of many a western power.
IN THIS SAME year, Jor-
dan, once a treasured satellite
of Britain, kicked out its Brit
ish officers among them the
famed Club PaSha, comman-
der of the Arab Legion.
Jordan embarked on a Sc
ries of anti-BritiSh and anti
French demonstrations. 1t
aligned itself with Egypt.
These demonstrations Sapped
the strength of Jordan, max
ing it the "sick man" of the
Middle East.
Then came an unexpected
break. Unrest, reaching the
stage of an armed revolt in
Hungary, broke out in the So
Wet countries in East Europe.
The West, and Israel, both
made a hasty calculation:
Russia had its hands full at
home and could neither spare
men nor equipment for the
Middle East. Recent events
seems to belle this view.
THEN EGYPT, later in Oc-
tober, blundered. She again be-
gan sending out the fedayeen
gangs which had been kept at
home during the Suez Canal
crisis. The stage was set.
Israel, her flank protected
by a weak Jordan, set out to
wipe out the fedayeen gangs
of Egypt, a country which had
repeatedly angered France
and Britain. These two coun-
tries, hopeful that the Hunga-
rian revolt would keep Rus
sia occupied, also seized the
opportunity to unleash an at
tack on Egypt.
But these two countries
made one fatal mistake. They
had failed to enlist American
support. The battle front
quickly shifted to the diploma
tic front. Here it remains to-
day.

81 BELIEVE it is only nat
ural that the Jews in America
have feelings for the fate OF
Jews in Israel. The Jews OF
Israel cannot continue alone
in the interest of the free
world. And America, as the
leader in the free world,
should be interested in the
stability and peace of the Mid

but as Americans, the people
in this country should be in

"When I say that Israel is
a bulwark of democracy in

it as an empty phrase. This
