Washington appears to be

sian village by rs French
bombers. IL Of which were

The attack. which the
French explained as their

of the newly created United
Arab Republic.
The Arab Republic was a
skillful Kremlin operation in

the Arabs from the free West
and to deprive Europe even
tually of its most important
oil resources. 1t is true, that
President Nasser is not ideo-
logically a Com m unist;
neither does he tolerate the
Communist ideologies and
their spokesman in his realm.
But Moscow's policies are
flexible. omrade Khru-
shchev's main objective is the
universally" of the Soviet
empire. The means to achieve
this is to bring America and
its associates to their knees.
He can afford to abandon the
Marxist-Leninist doctrines in
an area where neither the
people nor. especially. the
absolute rulers want any part
of it.
The activities of the Soviet
Union in the Arab world have
been intended to develop ma
tionalism. In this, Russia has
been highly successful. The
Arabs have responded enthu-
siastically to the magic of
"nationalism." Furthermore,
they see for the first time in
history that with the support
of the USSR they can ac-
complish a long awaited
dream. "pan-IslamiSm." This
would not only enable them
to nationalizel the vast oil
wealth developed by Western
capital but also to get rid of
Israel without fear of repris-
ais. The naturalization Of
the oil fields and pipelines is
expected to give vast profits
to the rulers. The destruc-
ton Of Israel would delight
the Arab masses.

Searchers Find
Water leakage

JERSEY CITY. N. j., Feb. II
(R.-The water main leak
draining this city's supply of
water at an alarming rate was
located today and the state of
emergency was declared over.
August w. Hickman, COM
missioner of public works, an
nounced that the leak had been
pinpointed in a 36-inch main
starting at the city's small re-
ceiving reservoir and running
under the Hackensack River.
Much Water Wasted
The leak. with millions Of
gallons Of water going to waste,
had led to a state of emergency
for a third of this port city.
Hundreds Of water works en-
ployes had been searching for
the break since Sunday night
without success.
Most Of the 40 control valves
had been closed one at a time
in an effort to find the leak.
The possibility that the break
might result in cave-ins had
brought about the state Of
emergency.
Pressure Built Up
About a third of the city's
100000 population was without
water for q while, until pressure
could be built UP to Offset
the leak.
A total Of 1876 plants employ
ing $500 workers had been
closed in an effort to conserve
water and thus maintain pres
sure. They made plans to
reopen at noon today.
Twenty schools were closed,
giving 10000 pupils an UNI
expected holiday.
The pupils will return To
school Thursday, after a Lin

DAVID LAWRENCE

The most fascinating game
among businessmen-and it's
q game with high stakes--is
guessing just when the ''pick-
up" will come in the economic
situation of the country.
There's a distinct differ
ence between recovery" and
pickup" It is, conceded
that, when the ''upturn"
comes, it could be slow and
might precede by a good
many months an actual state
of recovery"
What is meant. of course,
is that the generalities which
have been heard for the last
several weeks are being chal-
lenged as the first month";
and-a-half of 1853 have al
ready passed. The idea that
business will recover in the
second six months-a widely
held view-presupposes a GER
tain regularity about eco
nomic timetables. Business
trends don't behave that way,
as one factor after another
has to arise in an unpredict-
able sequence until the whole
picture has changed. Nobody
can tell in advance when
confidence" will come back
and when commitments will
begin to be made for further
expenditures. But when CON
f1dence" has actually been re-
stored. everyone will recognize
its return.
The biggest fallacy of all
is the widely spread argu-
ment-mostly by the poll
ticians that Government
itself can give business "a
shot in the arm" or that a
tax cut will be a panacea.
The administration it,
self has had to deal with
such predictions cautiously
and ambiguously because it
doesn't want to seem to be a
kllljoy or to be "inf1exible"
in its approach to possible
solutions. But the truth is
. tax cut is unlikely unless
