The State Department points
to the old British-French policy
in this area of trying to control
events and force the settlement
of outstanding problems. Look
where it got them: kicked out of
the Middle East.
America intends to go about it
more neatly. more slowly and it
is hoped more effectively. The
Arabs cannot be forced. But
with time and patience they can
be persuaded to take a course
beneficial to themselves, Israel
and the Western world which
needs their oil.
And persuasion. America Is
convinced. must be done pri-
vately. 1t is difficult for an Arab
leader to change policy because
of his country's emotional at
tachment to it. King Abdullah of
Jordan tried to be friendlier to
Israel and he was aSSassinated.
Col. Nasser might be rubbed out
by his army. King Saud might
get the AK from his feudal lords.
If the Arabs are to be changed
they will have to be changed in
small. almost imperceptible ways
Working Behind Scenes
America is trying to do this,
first. by not accepting the Arab
contention that Israel should
vanish and by not encouraging
them in this belief. Second. the
United States will work behind
the scenes with Eisenhower Doc.
trine money to help solve Arab
problems. This should encourage
the Arabs to look with more favor
on some phases of a basic Amer
lean solution to the ISrael-Arab
dispute as outlined by Secretary
of State Dulles more than a year
ago:
/. Resettlement of most and
repatriation Of some Of 100000
Arab refugees who lost their
homes during the Arab-Israeli
war.
2. An international loan to
help Israel pay compensation due
the refugees.
8. Adjustment Of Israel's boun-
Diary lines.
4. Formal treaty arrangements
with all parties through which
America could prevent alterna-
lions of the border by force.
Israel probably would accept
this program but doubts if it will
ever be tried. The Arabs need
more persuasion.
It should not be thought that
the Israelis are completely pes
simiStic. They believe the Suez
war and their own Sinai cam
paign has pulled America head
long into the Middle Eastern af-
fairs. Whether the State Depart
ment wants to or not, 1t now
must accept its moral commit
ment to find workable solutions
to the Suez. Aqaba, GAIA and
fedayeen problems.
Now, Israel says. if the Ameri-
cans can only be induced to get
tough.

lieves. would be for America to
tie Arm strings to any aid Of
fered Arab states. America GER
tainly plans to help Egypt's
crippled economy by loans and
gifts. Israel's view is, all right,
give Egypt the money on condi-
ton the fedayeen raids be
stopped and Israel be permitted
to use the Suez Canal and Aqaba.
At the same time Israel says
America could keep peace out
here by guaranteeing the present
borders of all countries that
want it. That would show the
Arabs that Israel cannot expand
and also will protect Israels
borders.
Some objections to these pro-
posals come Immediately to mind.
Arab leaders are stubborn. Col.
NaSSer of Egypt in particular is
hard to push around and i'm
possible to buy. In the past he
has reacted violently to Amer
lean attempts to tie tiny strings
to aid. He has reated right
into communist arms.
Flirting With Reds
So if the United States tries
to trade aid for a new Arab
policy toward Israel. won't the
Arabs merely drift farther to-
ward communism? The Israelis
say no. The Arabs are basically
non-Communist, they are merely
firing with the Reds in order
to get bargaining power with
the Americans. If Washington
doesn't play. then the Arabs will
become reasonable.
Americans can also find objec-
tons to border guarantee pro-
posals. First. Congress might not
go for such sweeping involve
ment in the Middle East; second,
America is not so sure the pres
ent Israeli borders are the best
ones: third, one cannot be too
sure the Israelis are really salts
fed with their tiny lopSided
country.
Today's map of Israel was
drawn by the Israeli army during
the 1948 war with the Arabs. The
border marks the area occupied
by the army when the final
ceaSefire came. 1t is not partic-
ularly handy border for either
Arabs or Israelis. The second
largest Israeli political party,
Herut. openly urges that Israeli's
borders be extended by force.
The State Department would
like to see stable boundaries and
it has asked that line be modi-
fed. But it insists a new border
shall be agreed upon by both
Arabs and Israelis. Not until a
fair compromise is worked out
will the United States consider
any kind of guarantee.
DO-NOthing Policy Claimed
Israelis say that means never
as the Arabs are committed to
no Israel, not just a modified one
Israel claims that what Amer
lea has in effect is q do-nothing
policy. America waits for the
Arabs to become reasonable but
the Arabs don't change and fin
ally Israel is obliged to use force.
For instance, Israel wanted
American help in getting through
the Suez Canal. America said
wait bit, there are delicate ne
gotiations going on with Egypt
over the withdrawal of Britain
from Egypt. Well take up your
problem later. But. says Israel,
nothing was ever done.
The same with free navigation
through the Gulf of Aqaba. The
same with the fedayeen raids.
SO Israel took things into its
own hands and invaded Egypt.
That's the way Israel sees it.
But that's not the way Uncle Sam
sees it.
