Tips For a Safe
Holiday Season

Don't turn your holiday joy into
tragedy, cautions jeanne Reitz,
University of Maryland home man.
agement specialist.
Miss Reitz offers these sugges-
tions for insuring a happy holiday
season:
Trees: Store your tree in a cold
place until ready to set it up, and
then erect it away from radiators
and other sources of heat. Never
place it so that it will block an
exit Make a fresh cut diagonally
in the trunk at least one inch
above the original cut. Keep the
base of the tree in a water-filled
container all during the holidays.
Check the wiring of all tree
lights for defects and loose sockets,
and avoid overlooking circuits with
this added illumination. Turn off
the tree lights when no one is in
the room. Take the tree down as
soon as it begins to shed needles
or shows signs of dryness.
Trimmings: Greens should be
placed away from heat and all
possible sources of sparks. Just as
with tree, as soon as the decora-
tons become dry, they should be
removed
Look for fire-proof or fire re-
sistant labels on the decorations
you buy Never use lighted candles
near green's or other possibly fam
mable decorations.
Never set lighted candle in a
window where curtains may blow
into the flame.
Clean up after Christmas gift
opening. A cigarette spark can turn
the left over wrappings into the
starting fuel for a fire tragedy.

Dag Accused
Of Nasser
Whi+ewash

JERUSALEM (JTA)-ISrael was
seen here to be in apparent agree
ment with the newly crystallized
Anglo-American criticism of United
Nations Secretary General Dag
Hammarskjold's attempt to white
wash United Arab Republic Presi-
dent NaSser in the Lebanese situa-
ton. 1t was anticipated that the
foreign ministry will brief its dip
lomatic missions abroad along
these lines.
According to reports in diplo-
matte circles here, the West is dis
appointed in Hammarskjold over
the UN report which stated there
was no evidence that the UAR had
interfered in the Lebanese rebel
lion. The Western Powers were
depicted as believing that Ham
marskjold wanted to avoid a Leb-
anese blow-up at any pr1ce-includ-
ing a compromise which may soon
put Lebanon under Nasser's doni-
nation.
Western diplomatic sources here
assert that the UN chief repeatedly
has made private statements to the
effect that sooner or later the en-
tire Arab Middle East will como
under Nasser'S domination, in any
event.
Israel requested that the United
Nations Truce Supervision Organ
ization release the results of a bal
listics investigation of the bullet
which killed 1t. Col. George A.
Flint, UN observer and chairman
of the Israel-Jordan Mixed Ar1nis-
tice Commission, on Mt. Scopus
May 26.
While the report of the incident
lin which four Israeli policemen
also lost their lives-by Maj. Gen.
Carl Won Horn, UN truce chief, in
dicated that the bullet came from
the Arab side, "unless it rico
cheted," it is understood that the
ballistics tests showed conclusively
that the bullet came straight from
the direction of the Arab lines on
the height.
The original report of the Incl
dent was delayed for weeks, in
what the Israelis believe was an
attempt by the UN secretary gen.
eral to save the prestige of Jordan
King Hussein. They see evidence
of similar delay in making pub
lie the results of the ballistics in
vestigation.

FIo++ering Comparison

daily food bills of the small handful
of rich Egyptians, who are noted
for conspicuous consumption" and
the miserable, starving fellaheen
whose daily food intake probably
does not exceed 1900 calories a
day.
THERE is ONE set of figures
that is quite comparable. These
show actual expenditures in Egypt
and Israel for development. We
find from the U.N. statistics the
Nasser regime spent only $252, ,O0O,-
600 for development in the 31A
years from 1858 to the middle of
1856. During that period, accord
ing to the U.N., Israel spent $685.
600, 600 for development.
When you recall that Israe's
area is $3.50 square miles to
Egypt's 386, 900 square miles; when
you compare Israel's present pop
ulation of 2,OOO, 900 to Egypt's near
ly 0O0,0O0-you see that Israel
spent for development of its little
country not only much more IN
actual dollars, but also relatively
to size and number of people.
Egypt spent only $40 per capita for
development, while Israel spent
$169.
WHILE WORKING hard to main
tain a high standard of living
against great odds, Israel has also
been forced to spend heavily for
it's defense. Because of constant
Arab hostility, Israel had to budget
$78, 100000 for defense in 1857. But
if that seems high, look at Egypt's
defense budget for the same year
reaching the whopping figure of
$21O, 900, 900!
The U.N. economic survey also
shows how Egypt's exports to the
Soviet Union have gone up since
Egypt made it's infamous cotton
for arms" deal with the Soviet
bloc. In the first half of 1856, when
Egypt had not yet begun to pay
Russia for it's new armaments, only
40 percent of Egypt's total exports
went to the U.S.S.R. A year later,
the Egyptian exports to Russia had
multiplied by almost five times
reaching 20.6 percent of the coun-
try's total shipments to foreign
countries.

UNITED NATIONS, NY. - The
United Nations has paid a very
high tribute to Israel. A report
has been issued, declaring:
"The economic program in Is
rael has been directed toward a
fast development of the country'S
productive facilities and the main
tenance of a relatively high level
of living for a rapidly increasing
population.
BY contrast, the same report
shows how backward Egypt is.
While Israel complies and issues
regularly figures showing its So
cial progress, Egypt hides that
story. AS the UN. states the case
regarding Egypt: "In the absence
of detailed social accounts, it is
difficult to gauge accurately the
progress achieved"
NEVERTHELESS, some acts do
emerge clearly. The details come
The Phoenix Jewish news., 1958-07-18

to life from close examination of
the latest study published by the
United Nations Department of Eco
nomic and Social Affairs, entitled:
Economic Developments in the
Middle East, 1861"
Let us look at what the survey
calls "level of living" Hidden in
a footnote are figures showing that
IsraeliS eat much better, and eat
more, than Egyptians do. An Is
raeli consumes on an average of
1850 calories a day. The "aver-
age" for an Egyptian is only 1880
calorieS.
But there is a greater difference
than these food consumption figures
indicate. The Israeli food-consump-
ton figure is real-based on statis-
tics compiled effectively by the
U.N. Food and Agriculture Organ
ization. The Egyptian figure is
phony, drawn from the tables made
up in the Egyptian Ministry of Ag-
riculture which average" the
