ARAB BOYCOTT
FRONT CRACKS

JERUSALEM (JTA) - The first
official refusal by an Arab country
to comply with an Arab boycott
ruling against Israel was reported
In the Arab press reaching here.
A Lebanese spokesman repeated
ly disclosed that Lebanon had noti-
fled the Arab boycott office in
Cairo that the Beirut Government
would not follow an order to boy
colt Air France and the British
Imperial Chemical Industries in re-
taliation for the refusal of the two
firms to cease operations in Israel.
Arab boycott pressures, while fail
ing to force the ICI out of Israel,
apparently have induced British
Shell to stop its sales operations.
The Lebanese spokesman pointed
out that several other Arab states
were not implementing boycott Of
flee decisions, leading observers
here to note that the boycott office,
which is a branch of the Arab
League, is actually an instrument
of Egyptian policy, as is the
League.

Anfi-Semifism
Rife In Germany

HANOVER, Germany (JTA) -
One-third of the respondents in re-
cent West German public opinion
polls have revealed strong anti
Semitic tendencies in their reaction
to test questions. DR.. Carl-C -Christoph
Schweitzer, a high Bonn Govern
ment official, reported to a three
day meeting of German intellectu-
ais on "Anti-Semitism and German
History"
DR.. SchweitZer, whose depart
ment is responsible for strength
ening democracy in West Germany
and combating remnants of the
Nazi philosophy, asserted that ad-
vocateS of open anti-SemitiSm in
this country, the avowedly neo-
Nazi groups and parties, have de-
clined in strength.
The conference was held under
the auspices of the Evangelical
Academy at nearby Locoum for 70
persons. The academy device is
used by the Protestant Church to
bring together adults to discuss i'm
portant questions of the day.

he sneered, What are you trying
to do-show the people how pa
triotic you are?" Then Benny pro-
ceeded to whip Kilbane. This is the
more generous version.
The rest of Williams column is
devoted to stories of how good Kill
bane really was, especially when
he won 10 out of 20 rounds from
Abe Attell, when Abe was only %
and still good. If these tales are
true, Leonard'S feat is even more
brilliant than one supposed.
Alphonse Halimi, the latest Jew
ish ring champion, the world BAN
tamweight title-holder, has shown
once again that he is a tough,
rough boxer, able to take care of
himself against all competition.
In nontitle bout with Chic Bro
gan of Scotland, held in Paris,
Halimi finished the Scot in 2 min
utes of the second round. AS the
round opened, Halimi floored Bro
gan with a right to the head.
Halimi was on his man like a
tiger and a furry of lefts and
rights again set Brogan on the
canvas. Helpless and weak, Brogan
was an easy victim for Halimi' S
final punches.

Johnny Kilbane was once the
featherweight champ of the world
and he died a few months ago at
the age of 68. He held his title for
IL years. He fought in New York
and his career is, in a sense, tied
up with that of Benny Leonard be-
cause Leonard, before he died, had
charged Kilbane with anti-Semit-
ism. 1t was because of Johnny's
cracks, Benny had stated, that he
went all out to knock out Kilbane-
and did.
Joe Williams, the sports column
ist, recently wrote column on
Kilbane, in which he quoted Leon
ard as saying of him, "He was just
yellow enough to be a real good
fighter" meaning that caution was
a good thing.
ACCORDIN TO Williams,
Leonard neither adored nor alb
hored Kilbane," which is not the
version 1 heard. Still, Leonard won
in three rounds in Philadelphia
against a good Kilbane. Williams
says that Leonard declared, HE

how, in recent years, the boycott

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Failure OF
the present farm policy was indicated
strongly during the week when the
House voted 1872 to 187 to hold acre
age reserve funds for 1858 in abey-
ance, pending passage of new farm
program. This action in no way af-
fected the 1857 Soil Bank program.
That's still intact. But it means that
the Soil Bank program, in growing
disrepute among farmers, may soon
be dead.
Whether the House action was right
or wrong, the national feeling appears
strong that the Soil Bank has been
used as a political gimmick. Soil Bank
funds were poured largely into the
Midwest region where the plan utterly
failed to reduce production of corn;
in fact, the corn area over-produced
more than ever. 1t was a conservation
program falsely dressed in the garb
of complete farm program, which
it was never meant to be. 1t has neith-
er reduced production nor increased
prices.
I believe that farm program can
be developed and l will continue to
work and fight for one which will
bring a fair return to the average
Montana farmer.

ing the Blackfeet, Grow and Flathead
reservations, and, in addition, Mrs.
Eunice LaMere of Hill 81 Indian
group at Great Falls, came to Wash
ington to testify in behalf of tribal
phases of the Depressed Areas bill
which members of the Montana con-
gressional delegation, along with Sen
ator Douglas of Illinois, the chief
sponsor, are favoring.
Many Indians from other states
also were present. Represented were
81 tribes from 13 states. At the close
Of the various hearings, various ma
,ional groups arranged picnic out
ng for the visitors in Rock Creek
Park, where the assemblage by blaz-
ng campfire and Indian drummers
attracted the interest of thousands of
Washingtonians.
Mrs. LaMere told senators and con-
sressmen of the plight of Hill 81
esidents, whose forebears were made
literally people without country,
argely because of injustices perpe-
rated by the governments of the
United States and Canada. Aid to
orrect t h cir present situation,
through means offered by the De-
ressed Area Bill, is being sought.
The journey to Washington by
1rs. LaMere was paid for by MEM
ers of the Great Falls Business &

ional B&PW organization gave her
very possible assistance. The Indian

If a well-dressed gentleman began
walking the streets of Lancaster solic-
iting funds to build swimming pools,
badminton courts, beach houses. and
all the other luxuries of civilization
for personnel of the United States
Information Agency in such farflung
places as Moscow, Rangoon, Accra,
and Laos, it would not be long before
some member of the Chamber of
Commerce called the police.
Yet, this is just a sample of what
this over-blown agency thinks the
American taxpayer should provide
for employees living abroad and en-
gagged in the arduous task of selling
the American way of life to the citi-
zens of other nations. Such foolish
ness cannot be justified unless it is
the purpose of the USIA to convince
other peoples that the taxpayer in
the United States is, in fact. mil
lionaire and that the funds of Uncle
Sam are truly inexhaustible.
Such a conception of this coun-
try is as dangerous as it is wrong.
Pride of purse is just as offensive
to citizens of other lands as were
the regal trappings of empire in
the old days of colonial expansion.
IF the USIA cannot find personnel
willing to adapt themselves to con-
ditions as they find them in foreign
countries, then it is doubtful that
the message this agency is trying
to deliver will ever be effective.
Some doubt as to the usefulness of

GREENSBORO DAILY NEWS

| GREENSBORO DAIL1 NEWO
Let's open up the parcel-post win
dow and the registered mail window,
along with the stamp and money order
windows. and ventilate this United
State postal service question. Let's
permit some fresh air and reason,
and some pretty strong feelings in the
bargain, to play upon the subject for
while.
l don't know very much about the
inner and intricate workings of the
United States Post Office Depart
ment, so l can speak freely. And l
certainly speak with feeling. I have
had my say about the post office once
before, and what | said was, in es-
sence, this: Don't mess around with
the postal service; it's just about the
best and most valuable and most i'm
portant service that the government
has to offer.
[ have such a mighty respect and
such powerful affection for the
postal service that l always stand
rigidly at attention and lick stamp,
as sort of salute, silent tribute,
whenever it's name is mentioned in my
hearing.
1t is my great daily adventure to
go down to the post office every day;
some days go or times, to unlock
my post office box and see what the
boys have stuffed into it. The novelty
of this simple act never wears thin
for me. What will be inside? A letter
from some friend across the State or
across the Nation? Will the box con-
tain that tantalizing little rectangle
or colored cardboard bearing the leg
end, "Call for package? Will it hold
an offer from someone who wants to
send me, bless his generous heart,
genuine hand-painted, wrinkleproof
SIS neckties for a mere 81 apiece, G
for SIS? l am not immune even to
those Establishments.
Each morning the daily paper is
there, the tidings of all the known
world wrapped in a few folds of news
print and waiting for me in my post
office box, just because the post of
flee people are so nice and obliging
that they place it there, without fail,
early every day. At least one week |
a check reposes in the box. The famil-
Jar envelope winks at me cordially
through the numbered glass window
ong before I can insert and turn the
Key in the Yale lock. What happy
title cubicle the post office box is
IN such occasions. Then | skip mer-
lily from the post office to the bank,
where I can make good most of the
hecks 1 wrote the week before.
And the magazines, the gay, color
ul, fascinating magazines which
ometimes seem to swell the box to
ursting. And Christmas cards and !
laster cards and birthday cards and {
II sorts of things, not to mention
hat most enthralling of all forms of {
terature, catalogs, all kinds of cata-
ogs. Of course, it is true and it is {
My fair to mention 1.-THE monthly {
ills are placed in my post office box, I
90, but, then, nothing is perfect. We {
ave to accept the bitter with the s
weet.
Oh, I'll tell you, no man stands s
igher in my esteem than the fellow I
Tho invented the post office. He is a I
reat hero in my private hall of fame, c
tremendously large-hearted bene- t
actor whose status should grace ev- f
ry public park, public school, and T
ool-room.
Well, you can see how l feel about P
he United States postal service and f
on can understand how l blanch at r
