that Prince Bernhard Of the

DESERT DILEMMA
BY H. B. sHARABI

BAGHDAD, IraQ.-The rebel
lion in the obscure southeastern
corner of the Arabian Peninsula
Is a new challenge to the prestige
Of Britain in the Middle East and
another sign of the spread Of mill
tant nationalism among the more
backward Arab communities of
South Arabia and the Persian
Gulf. Even though the rebellion
in Oman may soon be crushed or
subdued. the spark threatening
Britain's protectorates in the oil
rich areas Of Eastern and South
ern Acknowledgement, Bahrain,
Qatar. the Trucial Coast, Muscat
and Oman. Alden Colony and Alden
Protectorate - has now been
ignited. But Britain will not
easily give in in this area, she
will fight for every sheikhdom and
principality before she lets go her
most important single source of
oil and position of great military
and commercial advantage.
Yet it is likely that If the
Algerian revolt should end any
time soon, the war against the
last vestiges of Imperialism" will
shift to this region which is the
last in the whole Arab world to
remain under foreign control.
The prediction Of the Manchester
Guardian to this effect last No
vember is being fulfilled much
sooner than anyone had expected.
Whatever the seemingly inevi-
table consequences resulting from
the present situation in Arabia, it
is most disturbing to see the de-
gree Of the Vests confusion in
viewing the present developments
in the vital area of the Persian
Gulf. The sum total of reports
and news dispatches reaching
Western capitals is no more than
a collection of rumors and half
truths based on an almost COM
plete misunderstanding of the
background and nature of the
situation.
Strictly speaking. there is no
single explanation for the revolt
in Oman. The motivation Of Arab

self more and more with the
British, the Ibadi Imam of Oman
refused to enter into treaty rela-
tons with any foreign power, and
sought to consolidate his political
independence from the Sultan Of
Muscat. 1t was not surprising.
therefore, to see the Sultan Of
Muscat seize the opportunity in
1855 of the Saudi-British conflict
to suodue his neighbor and an
mex Oman, and thus give concrete
meaning to his traditional title.
the Sultan of Muscat and Oman.
In the light of all this and in
view of Muscat'S ties with the
British. it is only to be expected
that the Arabic press and Arab
public opinion, led of course by
Egypt's Canal Abdel NasSer, is
strongly in favor of Oman's Imam
Ghalib and his movement. The
rebellion itself, even if brought to
a halt, will not be completely
crushed. British bombing of rebel
strongholds is directed not only
against the Omanis but serves
also as a warning to all dissatis-
fed tribes in Britain's Arabian de-
Tendencies who may be thinking
and plotting revolt. But Britain's
pacif1cation in Oman is similar
to early French pacif1cation in
Algeria. starting on a small scale
then spreading with the rise Of
outside sympathy and support.
1t is very probable that the
whole issue of Oman would have
been kept in the background had
the British accepted the Saudi
claim to Buraimi. But as things
stand, before oil can be exploited
in Buraimi or in Oman a political
solution has to be reached. Yet
all indications point to the fact
that the political problems in this
vital area, instead of diminishing,
are now beginning to take a larger
and more serious shape.

competition with the United
States?
Washington observers think Of
two reasons. First. he probably be-
lieves this enhances his own pop
ularity among the Soviet peoples.
Certainly If a substantial increase
in meat and milk production is
achieved, this will be true.
Second. the Soviet party leaders
also may hope to put some gump-
ton into the tired peasantry. to
develop a competitive spirit that
will cause a little more effort to
be applied to Soviet food produc-
ton.
Mr.. K. Cont Lose
But suppose United States OBJ
servers are right and Mr.. Kru.
shchev fails to make good on his
boast that Soviet meat and milk
production will equal this coun-
try's by 1860 or 1861. What would
happen then? Would Mr.. Kru-
shchev be in trouble?
Most American experts think
not.
He could claim to have reached
parity with America whether Sow.
let output actually had or not.
And If there were a substantial
increase in the availability of meat
and milk. as seems probable. Mr..
Krushchev could be something Of
a hero.
Meanwhile. the Soviet chiefs
good intentions are making all
kinds Of political hay around the
country.
Those who follow his public APP
pearances closely from Washing
ton believe that Mr.. Krushchev
would have had perfectly sue
cessful political career anywhere
in the world" He is, in their
judgment. master politician"
whose natural tendency is to play
for the crowd.
Perhaps this natural flare for
the hustings will yet move the
Soviet Union closer to the day
when its peoples have real influ-
ence on their government.

Washington experts who closely
follow the careers of Soviet leaders
are frankly puzzled at the I'M
orthodox political method of
Nikita S. Khrushchev. first secre-
tary of the Communist Party.
He is making his biggest pitch
to the common man-to the wage
Garner and the peasant. But in
the Soviet Union it is not these
lowly people who can make or
break the leaders. 1t is the bureau
Gratis who can do that.
Georgi Malenkov made his pitch
to the bureaucrats by offering
them more pay and more influence.
Despite his lack Of success, it
looks to many students of the
Kremlin power game that Mr..
Khrushchev should be doing the
same.
Instead. Mr.. K. is acting like an
American transformer who de-
ponds on the votes Of the average
man.
His Observation-Disclosures cam
paign is the kind of a program
that a Western politician could
fancy himself conducting.
The difference, however. is that
Mr.. Khrushchev's goals are I'M
realistic.
American experts are certain
that the Soviet Union cannot pos
sibly make good on Mr.. Kru-
shchev's boast that Soviet meat
production per capita will equal
the United States by 1860 or
1861. The Soviet party chief first
made this prediction last May %
in Leningrad speech.
