AFLCIO PRECEDENT George Meany
today issued the following state
ment:
The deepening crisis in the
Middle East has reached an explos-
i've stage that gravely imperils the
peace Of the entire world.
with the continued help of
Communist armament, the Egypt
ian dictatorship is now openly or
ganizing z military bloc dedicated
to a war OF humiliation against the
democratic Republic of Israel.
1T sh0uiG De obvious to our
Government and our Allies that
Moscow is maneuvering to insti-
gate aggression and to provoke the
catastrophe Of war in this pivotal
region. The Communists already
have ignited the fuse to the powder
keg.
The free world must act i'm
mediately to stamp out that sput-
tering fuse and safeguard peace.
If we do not act now, the world
may become embroiled in another
Korea
"As the first step, the AFL~CIO
recommends that the United States
provide arms for defense to Israel.
The growing imbalance in military
strength against Israel will other
wise inevitably bring about war.
Only if Israel is equipped to de-
fend herself effectively can the
forces of aggression arrayed a.
gainst her be deferred. 1t is un-
realistic to regard military aid to
Israel as an instigation to an arms
race. Actually, the race is already
on and Israel may soon be out of
the running.
"Once hostilities r temporarily
averted, we believe ways and
means should be found, through
the United Nations and other
channels. to bring about a peace
full and just settlement of the diff
culties between Israel and ner a.
rab neighbC-s by negotiation.
AT the same time, the United
es-British-French triparite de-
claration Of 1850. which pledged
those nations to take immediate
action against the use of force in
the Middle East, should be re-af-

Georgia Methodist and Baptist
leaders in speaking out against

In his address, Bishop Clai-
borne noted there had been re-
ports of suggestions by "men in
high political circles" that people
stop paying dues in churches
whose ministers describe inte-
grafton as "the Christian thing"
to do. He stated that the Epis-
copal Church stands for separa-
ton of Church and State.

"the descendants of those who
came to this free land seeking
freedom of religion, can do no

A 35-year-old industry which
suffered a black eye during
World War II is being rehabili-
tated.
The Tire Retreading Institute,
1912 Fourteenth street NV, is
determined to maintain high
standards in the retreading busi-
ness.
1T started with World War
H." explains Winston w. Marsh,
executive secretary of the insti-
tute. when tires were not to be
had and retreading became a
necessity. AS the business mush-
roomed. incompetents got into it.
A lot of inferior work was done,
and people grew suspicious Of
retreading."
Early last year officials of the
National Tire Dealers and Re-
trcaders decided to do something
about it. The problem as they
saw it was twofold: The un-
friendly attitude of consumers
toward sretreading and the in
ferior quality of some of the
work. The solution. they decided,
lay in retreading standards laid
down by the industry itself.
Institute Organized
The Tire Retreading Institute
was organized in October as a
subsidiary of the association
but under separate management.
A testing company was engaged
to inspect applicants for men,
bership, and a medallion was
designed to identify Institute
approved tires.
In the 10 months since the in
stitute was formed. 300 retread-
erS have been certified, and more
than a million approved tires
are now in use. The figures
would be higher" Mr.. Marsh ex-
plains. but the kind of inspec-
ton we require is so time-con-
Stunning that there are not
enough inspectors to go around"
Fifteen inspectors are available
in various parts of the country,
and Mr.. Marsh estimates it takes
a half day to inspect shop.
The institute has certified re-

trucks equals the number OF
new tires, and one out Of every
three passenger tires is q re-
tread.
I'VE figure that If all retread-
ing came to a halt. cars would
be abandoned by the roadside
in three to six months"

lia." Mr.. Marsh says. "but we
haven't yet found a way to get
those shops inspected"
Worldwide Industry
But retreading has become a
worldwide industry. Three
years ago eight Western Euro
pean nations formed an associa-
ton. with headquarters in The
Hague, to act as a retreading
information clearing house.
"a representative Of the Aus
tralian retreading industry Wis
tied us recently" Mr.. Marsh re-
calls, land was shocked because
we discard passenger tires as
soon as we do. We have been
able to extend the life Of a tire
beyond 100000 miles through re-
treading. but apparently they do
even better down under"
Mr.. Marsh emphasizes that the
institute does not put a ceiling
on retread quality-only a floor
I'VE believe in the small business
concept" he explains. IF a
mans individual initiative can
come up with a better tire, we're
all for it. And many of the
best and most important innova-
tions come from the retreaders

for instance. That's because
these are small shop owners who
get their hands dirty along with

Future plans of the institute
call for a national guaranty pro-

new retreading methods and a
school to train recruits to the
