DAVID LAWRENCE
u. S. Plays Winning Role

The way Of the peacemaker
is beset with many obstacles,
and it takes 4 long time TO
negotiate All agreement when
there has been such emotional
ism displayed by the disput-
ants and their SympathizerS.
Tt is, however, apparent al
ready that neither side wants
more bloodshed and that the
voice OF reason is gradually
being needed. Some of the
leading men inside the Egyp-
tan and Israeli governments
have been educated in univer-
stiles in the West, and their
minds are acutely responsive
to the force of world opinion.
This presents a real hope in
the present situation.
Plainly the Middle East prob
lem will" not be solved until
Egypt realizes that Israel is
here to stay-it was created by
the U. N. itself-and that, as
in all international controver-
sizes which defy settlement. the
task is to find a way to live
with a problem rather than to
try to impose drastic solutions.
The clumsy entry of Soviet
Russia into the picture in the
last 48 hours is not altogether
without its advantages. For the
hostility of the Communists
to the Eisenhower doctrine"
is a point in its favor which
hesitant Senators will not fail
to note. Significantly, too. the
Soviet move is on the side Of
peace--not war. Moscow not so
long ago was threatening to
send volunteers" to the Middle
East. Now it comes forth with
a "holier than thou" plan to
bring peace.
The upshot of it all is that
America is gaining friends in
the Middle East. and If pas
sage of the Eisenhower doc
trine" resolution now could be
expedited in the Senate. there
would be new opportunities
opened up soon through eco
nomic planning to turn the
minds of all the Middle Eastern
countries from warfare against
each other to warfare against
poverty and an age-old in
difference to the real needs OF
the people.

Poiicymukers interested in Role
OF Spain Dictator in Mideost Crisis

where the representative Of
one Of the most devout Catho-
lie countries IN the world was
given an enthusiastic welcome
by the Arab leaders and theig
people.
Political necessities have
compelled our Government 10
play a lone hand in the Middle
East because the prestige Of
our British and French allies
has fallen below zero. All the
same We would like TO be
backed in that area By other
non -Moslem and anti-Com-
munist countries. And Spain
appears at this time 10 be
about the only Western Euro
pean state which stands high
in the esteem Of the Arabs
from Morocco TO the Persian
Gulf.
Spain has granted us i'm
portant naval and air bases.
Its full cooperation in the
event of a showdown with the
Russians in Europe or in the
Middle East is important to
us. Our people were welcomed
and there are no indications,
such as we have seen in other
allied countries, that they
want any "Yank to go home, '
1t is true that we have spent
close to $500 million on those
bases and in a relatively
modest economic assistance to
the Madrid government. The
arrival of well-paid American
servicemen, and the expendi-
ture for construction of new
military installations and pipe
lines to service the air bases,
have caused an influx of money
which has disturbed the anti
quated Spanish way of life and
produced an imitation which
might have important effects
on the economy of that coun-
try.

The State Department is
aware that there will certainly

to the visit Of the Spanish

been TO that OF King Saud Of
Arabia. American Communists,
fellow travellers and certain
theological and religious groups
who applauded the idea of in

ganin- Khrushchev team are
expected to mobilize their
forces and protest Generals
simo Frances being received
in state" in Washington.
Politically there are strong
reasons, however. why Ell eau
dillo should be asked to come
to the United States. He is
rapidly becoming an important
figure among the Arabs. The
Sultan OF Morocco. on whose
territory we have vital air
bases. has just completed an
official visit to Madrid. King
Saud of Arabia is now in the
Spanish capital for talks with
Generallssimo Franco on the
Middle Eastern situation. King
Saud would like to become the
de facto" leader of the Arab
countries. He is convinced that
GeneraliSsimo Franco might
be helpful to his prospects.
1t is interesting, Washing

Patience and the persistent
force Of reason are playing
winning role in the effort TO
bring peace TO the Middle
East.
The changing headlines
from threats of sanctions"
against Israel TO a proposed
formula fof' achieving justice
for the tiny republiC-must
seem. for example. to the aver
age reader to be sort of
zigzag, but actually they reflect
the steady pressure of Ameri-
can leadership eXerted in an
objective and disinterested
manner.
Thus. from the very begin
ming Of the controversy over
the blocking of Israeli ships
by Egypt from the use of
either the Suez Canal or the
Gulf of Aqaba-eSpecially since
the latter route affords the
only outlet for Israel to the
Indian Ocean the Depart
ment of State has recognized
the principle of freedom of
navigation in international
waters. That same principle
Is still upheld by the United
States and will be insisted
upon in the future.
But it is one thing to take
a stand on a principle and an
other thing to obtain accept
ance of its many collateral
obligations by parties to a dis
pute in which emotions are at
fever pitch.
What has been happening in
the last several days is a sig
nificant illustration of the
delicate art of diplomacy.
which rightly seeks to post
pone a crisis by the continual
introduction of new alterna-
tives
First it was believed that a
simple resolution by the United
Nations calling on Israel to
withdraw her troops from
Egypt's territory in the vicin-
ity of the Gulf of Aqaba
would be sufficient. But it
turned out that Israel would
not accept such a request
without getting in advance

certain guarantees OF aSSur-
ances OF freedom OF naviga-
ton. Actually. Egypt ha never
renounced her view that she Is
Al war with Israel.
Since the United Nations
wasn't able TO furnish aSSur-
ances against a renewed at
tack by Egypt. 1t was thought
by many observers that only
one move was left-to demand
Israei's withdrawal of troops
and 10 impose sanctions" of
an economic or financial ma
ture if she didn't obey. But
the State Department here
expressed its view privately
tn at sanctions" wouldn't
settle anything, and the Sec
rotary General of the United
Nations said the same thing
in an official report. To i'm
pose sanctions" he felt, would
only enlarge the area of
bitterness.
What next? The United
States came up with a bold
suggestion. 1t would announce
its adherence to the principle
of freedom of navigation and
lend its support to secure the
observance of that principle.
But how? BY military force?
The answer came that it would
be sufficient for all practical
purposes merely to set forth
the principle publicly and
Americas backing of it.
Would Egypt abide by the
principle? Obviously. the
Cairo government wouldn't
want to say so in advance
because it would look as If this
was a public surrender to the
Israeli vieWpoint-and in the
Middle East "face-saving" is
important.
Meanwhile. conversations
between the American repre-
sentative at the U. N. Henry
Cabot Lodge. and the Egyptian
Foreign Minister, as well as
negotiations participated in
by the adroit Secretary Cen
eral himself, led to the con-
clusion that something could
yet be done to avert an out
break of war and somehow
patch up the dispute.
