ent and Europe. 1t will be in
Phoenix just one day, Oct. 20,
and will be shown twice, at
$3.50 pm. and 10:30 pm.
Shoshana Damari, who thrill
ed a Phoenix audience with her
Yemenite songs several years
ago, takes a leading part. Ed
ward Mulhare, Irish actor, plays
the part of James Finnegan, an
Irishman in the Palestine police
whose love for a beautiful girl
Haya Harait and a new coun-
try induces him to join the
fighters for the freedom of Is
rael. Haya Hararit is a Cannes
Film Festival Winner.
ALSO IN THE cast are Mi

David Amiram, underground
leader; Azaria Rappaport, de-

Red Designs On Mideas+
Deemed Major Israel Peril

It was charged that the admin
iStration took no action to halt the
Arab Leagues anti-Israel boycott
despite boycott threats to Ameri-
can firms. The institute also re-
ported that "the US. submitted to
Saudi Arabian insistence on the
right to bar Jews from serving
with American armed forces sent
to Saudi Arabia"
STRESSLNG THE fact that eat
no time" did the United States reg
lister a formal complaint in Arab
capitals against Arab threats of a
second round against Israel, the
report stated: "This lack of reac-
ton has only encouraged the Arabs
to believe that no price was too
high to demand from the United
States"
The report questioned the policy
of President Eisenhower at the
time of the Sinai-Suez events. "The
turning of that defeat into political
victory for the Egyptian dictator
was not in the interests of peace
or stability for the area. Yet this
was precisely the result produced
by the policy of the United States"
the institute said.
Findings of the institutes study
revealed that the Arab refugee
problem would not exist had not
the Arab states launched war to
prevent implementation of the Pal
estine partition resolution of Nov.
20, 1947, and to destroy the State
of Israel in its infancy" The reset
tlement of the Arab refugees in
Arab lands was recommended. Iraq
and Syria were recommended as
places where the refugees could be
reSettled.

Does this mean that Israel "de-
feated" the secretary general?
That would be an incorrect and
unrealistic summation of events
that transpired here, concerning
Israel, in the past year. The Secre-
tary general had acted from a
sense of duty to the responsibilities
of his job-as he saw those respon-
sibilities.
ISRAEL, ON the other hand, act
ed from sense of duty to its peo-
pie. to its security, to its absolute
needs = without denying this role
that must be played4by the secre-
tary general.
Hammarskjold was insistent. So
was Ben Gurion. Fundamentally,
both these leaders acted from the
historical necessities facing their
constituencies.
NOW THAT Hammarskjold has
received a fresh - and stronger -
mandate, it would be well to re-
examine the immediate past as a
guide to the foreseeable future.
Hammafskjold received more
than a mandate. For the next 51s
years, he need fear no selfish in
terest of any nation.
Hammarskjold wants-ardently-
world peace. He knows that he
could not have come out of the
Middle East crisis with the kudoS
he has earned If the two most i'm
portant powers, the United States
and the Soviet Union, had not been
together when the votes were
counted. He knows also that, when
these same two powers were on op-
posite sides-as they were and are
on the Hungarian question-major-
ity votes were insufficient for So
luton of that problem.
EXTENDING that series of facts
to the Middle East, he must know
that he will not bring about peace
between the Arab states and Israel
as long as the cold war continues
to stir trouble in the Middle East.
No one has ever accused Ham
marskjold either of insincerity or
of dishonesty. Such accusations
would fail. On the other hand, real
lists have known 1) that he is no
stronger than the dominant cur
rents in the United Nations; (2)
that when a righteous stand is
made, as it has been by Israel, a
Just cause is not lost altogether
even in the face of "pedantic legal
ism"
One can only wish Hammarskjold
the greatest success. For if he
wins-the world will gain.

Poland Okuys
JDC Relief
Activities

PARIS (JTA)-The Joint Distri-
button Committee, which was fore
ed to close it's offices in Poland at
the end of 1949, will assume relief
activities there to help Jews, repa-
triated from Russia to Poland ad-
just themselves to new conditions
of life.
Charles Jordan, JDC European
director, following his return from
two-week stay in Poland, said
that Polish Prime Minister Josef
Cyrankiewicz assured him that the
JDC would be allowed to conduct
without hindrance program of
social assistance for Polish Jews
repatriated from Russia.
GAS THE MAJOR agency serv-
ing Jewish needs overseas, the
Joint Distribution Committee well
coined the suggestion of Polish au-
thorities that we send a mission
into the country to discuss setting
up a social assistance program on
behalf of the 5000 to 10000 Jews
among the Polish nationals recent
ly repatriated, as well as for the
many more thousands expected to
arrive in the foreseeable future, !"
Jordan declared.
Pointing out that the JDC mis-
sion was well received in Poland
and was given every opportunity TO
see the repatriates, speak to them,
and weigh their needs, Jordan said
the repatriates are only "sketchily
integrated" into the economy of the
country.
"THEY ARE largely unemployed
and find it difficult to provide for
themselves" he continued.
Housing has been supplied to
them but it is definitely inadequate.
In spite of what the government is
doing, there are yet areas of need
not being met"

High Courts
Critics Gel
ADJ BIas+inu

Characterizing recent attacks up
on the United States Supreme
Court as destructive of public con-
fidence in constitutional govern
ment,'' the Arizona State Commit
tee of the Anti-D Defamation League
of B'nai Birth, meeting in Phoenix,
called on all Americans to repudi-
ate such ''undisciplined and harm
full utterances.
The ADJ Committee, chaired by
William Gordon of Tucson, ex-
pressed alarm over criticisms lev
e1ed at the nations judicial pro-
ceSSeS "Such as that made earlier
this week by an elected member
of the Arizona judiciary"
While the judge was not referred
to by name, the reference was TO
Arizona's Supreme Court Justice
M. T. Phelps, who, in mid-Septem-
Der, berated the United States SUI
preme Courts desegregation deci-
sion as violating "due process. j."
The ADJ Committee said Phelps
views 'were unjustified both in
logic and in law.'
The resolution noted that ADJ
was one of several national organ
izationS which petitioned the U. S.
| Supreme Court to abolish Segrega-
ton in the nations public schools.
| Stressing that it's opinion on this
subject was unanimous, the ADJ
said that it reinforced our faith in
due process of law"
Continued assertions that the
court 'haS become a greater enc
N.Y. to America than Communism
''iS an outrageous affront to the
members of the court and to the
nations citizenry and gives aid and
comfort to our enemies, ADJ said.
Noting that a national ADJ sur
vey showed more than A percent
of Arizona hotels bar Jewish
guests, the committee voted to re-
new efforts to get public accom-
modations bill through the legisla-
ture. It also agreed to ask the Ari-
IONA branch of the American Auto
mobile Association to withhold its
AAA emblems from hotels and mo-
tells which discriminate.
The committee was addressed by
Harry Graham Batter, president OF
the leagues Pacific Southwest Re
gional Advisory Board, and Jack
Y. Berman, chairman of its execu-
tive committee.
Gordon was reelected state COM
mittee chairman. Other officers are
Joseph Stocker and Herb Finn,
Phoenix, vice chairmen; Charlotte
Kipnis, Tucson, secretary; and Nat
Silverman, Phoenix, treasurer.

WASHINGTON (JTA) - A warm
ing of the Soviet threat to Israel
and charges of United States ap-
peasement of the Arabs at Israel'S
expense are contained in an extern
sive new report by the Public At
fairs Institute of Washington.
The institute-founded in 1947 by
"a American leaders who felt the
need of a non-partisan, non-profit
organization in the nations capi-
tai doing original research and pro-
noting wider public knowledge OF
important problems-urged a new
Middle East regional resources de-
velopment agency, capitalized at
81 ,00O, ,OO0, 900 as the cornerstone OF
a dynamic U. S. policy.
THE DEVELOPMENT agency
would be financed jointly by the
royalties of oil-rich states, the oil
companies, member states, and the
United States. Membership would
be open to Israel and the undertak-
ing is envisaged as a force for
Arab-Israel peace.
The report urged abandonment OF
what it termed the present U. s.
policy of "ambivalence, uncertain
ty. appeasement, and parsimony. "
It called for priority to the needs
The Phoenix Jewish news., 1957-10-11

of the peoples of the region through
a long-range development plan, a
final settlement of the Arab-Israel
conflict, and the resettlement of
Arab refugees in Arab lands.
Inadequacies in the Eisenhower
Doctrine were charged and alarm
was expressed over continuing So
Wet success in penetrating the re-
gion.
THE INSTITUTE warned that
the Kremlin is ready ito engage
the force of its arms in support Of
the Arab states "to destroy Israel
to advance Communist ends in the
Moslem world. It said, "Soviet
acquieScence in the elimination OF
Israel as state is a price the
Kremlin is prepared to pay if there.
by it can further entrench itself in
the Middle East with Arab sup
port"
Israel's Sinai campaign was de.
Scribed by the institute as a legiti-
mate act of Self-defense. Israers
efforts to obtain help from America
when Russia joined the Arabs were
fruitless, the report indicated.
The institute charged that "es-
pecially after 1852" the US. Ad-
ministration policy was character
lied by appeasement of the Arabs
'at the expense of our allies, al
the expense of the Arab people, ~ot
Israel, and, in the final analysis,
of our primary interests - without
achieving the end objective-secur-
ity."
ACCORDING TO the report, "a
cornerstone of the appeasement
policy was the effort to lull the
Arab governments into forgetting
Western approval of the creation
of Israel. To this effort, principle
and practically alike were sacri.
feed - without winning over the
Arab world"
The institute openly stated that
the Republican Administration
"pro-Arab bias was underscoreC
with the exclusion of Israel from
all military pact discussions while
the concentration continued to Sc
cure Arab acquieScence.

CONGRESSMAN

FALSE CLAIM
By MILTON FRIEDMAN

NOOpyTlSnCp 1oO 10 OA]Ap AhS'|
WASEIINGTON-A Mississippi
congressman who appealed TO
Jews for financial support that
helped him win the seat of anti
Semitic John Rankin has recent
ly displayed behavior reminis-
cent of his predecessor.
He is Rep. Tom G. Abernethy.
His actions have facilitated the
fomenting of anti-Semitism in
the tense segregation issue.
IN THE HOUSE debate on the
civil rights bill, Abernethy re-
ferred to one "Israel Cohen"
He claimed that "Cohen" was
"a leading Communist in Eng
land" who in 1912 published "A
Racial Program for the goth
Century" blueprinting advance
ment of American Negroes. But
no such publication, authored by
Cohen" or anyone else, could
be. found by the Library of Con-
gress nor the British Museum.
How could Cohen" have been a
Communist Party member in
1912 when the party was not yet
in existence?
All this was called to Aber-
nethy's attention in the most re-
spectful manner. Since Aber-
nethy had avowed opposition to
religious prejudice, his coopera-
ton was sought in correcting
the false information printed in
the Congressional Record. He
responded by promising to look
into the matter.
BUT A FEW Jews in his con-
stituency took his side against
the 'Northerners." He then re-
fused to make a correction,
claimed to have been "maligned
and abused" and said: "your
fellow Jews down this way do
not agree"
Anti-Semitic agitators and the
anti-Semitic press have exploit
ed Abernethy's Israel Cohen"
allegations. Abernethy persists
in defending the material as
correct. He claims that he is
being "pressured" by Jews who
dare to mention the fraud. And
he mutters about evidence in a
safe deposit box "owned by a
man now deceased" and a book
missing" from the Library Of
Congress.

lions Tor i've more years.
He is not only the first Secretary
General to be elected-and unani-
mously - to two full, consecutive
terms. He is also the first to be
chosen after giving the organiZa-
ton the opportunity, on two differ
ent occasions, of firing him. He IS
without a doubt the strongest in
ternational civil servant the world
has ever known. These are facts
and friends of Israel would do well
to ponder these realities.
BUT THERE are other facts al
so. It is a fact that Israel has stood
up to the secretary general. When
HammarSkjold virtually tossed his
job before the Security Council the
first time, Oct. 81, 1855, he won
hands down.
That first time, his dare was ad-
dreSSed-without naming the pow
ers-to Britain and France. They
were perturbed at the manner in
which he behaved when they used
force to oppose Egypt's nationaliz-
alton of the SueZ Canal. He came
into the Security Council with a
strong statement asserting his in
dependence, telling the member
states that if they held other views
''it is their obvious right to act ac-
cordingly."
Members of the council-includ-
ing Britain and France, including
also the United States and the So
Wet Union-fell over themselves in
singing his praise. His prestige
rose.
A FEW DAYS later, Hammars-
kjold repeated his declaration of in
dependence. This time, the Hungar-
ian question was on the agenda-
and the unnamed butt of the chal-
lenge was Russia. Again no one
took the bait.
HammarSkjold went on from
strength to strength. He had forced
Britain and France to withdraw
their troops from Egyptian soil. He
was pressing Israel to do the same.
He was inSiStent that the newly
established United Nations Emer-
gency Force would be as nearly
neutral, politically, as possible.
Along with America, Russia -
and, incidentally, the Arab bloc =
the u. N. chief argued that no one
could be rewarded" for aggres-
sion. AS far as Israel was concern
ed, that thesis meant that Israel
would gain nothing from the Sinai
Campaign.
THE FACT is that UNEF was
used to bring about a great amount
of tranquility on the GAIA frontier
The fact is that UNEF was used tc
help Israel obtain freedom of ship.
ping through the Gulf of Akaba and
the Straits of Tiran. The fact is
that UNEF was not placed on Is
rael's side of the demarcation line
And it is further fact that Israe
now has more friends among the
members of the United Nations
and in the world community a
large-than ever before.
