Diplomatic Note

Betty Morse, in her letter
August 25, aside from other
misrepresentation Of facts,
wrongly quoted the Iraqi for
eign minister as stating in
April, 1857, 1.-THE (Arab) ref
ugee problem is being used
by Egypt as a political foot
ball. Iraq alone is capable
of absorbing all the Arab ref
ugees. :"
She failed to mention either
the name of the American
correspondent or the paper in
which the statement APP
peared.
The Embassy of Iraq cate
gorically denies the uttribu-
ton Of the statement to any
Iraqi leader.
However, it is of utmost
Importance to mention that
the U. N. categorically and
firmly acknowledged in the
General AsSembly's resolution
of December II, 1948-"that
refugees wishing to return to
their homes and live at peace
with their neighbors should
be permitted to do so at the
earliest practicable date, and
that compensation should be
paid for the property OF those
choosing not to return and for
loss of or damage to prop
erty. :. :"
This decision has been
confirmed and reconfirmed by
the General Assembly. But
IsraePs persistent defiance
of this and many other reso-
buttons pertinent to the Arab
Israeli conflict did not pre-
vent Israel from sitting in
the U. N. as a "peace-loving
state" able and willing to
carry out the obligations i'm
posed on her by the U. N.
Charter.
The Palestinian refugees
are adamantly opposed to
any measure which entails
the forfeiture of their tight
to reparation. After 10 years
of exile, the Director Of the
U. N. Relief and Work Agency
for Palestine Refugees wrote
in his last report of 1857:
THE great mass of refugees
continue to believe that q
grave injustice has been cone
to them and to express a de-
sire to return to their home
land"
AS to Miss Morse's conten-
ton that many Israeli as
Surances calling the Arabs to
remain went unheeded ;"
/ quote Menachim Begin,
leader of the Irgun terrorist
organization and now an
important political figure in
Israel, on the massacre of
Dair Yaseen village, a single
incident of Zionist atrocities
which shocked the entire civ
ilized world with the murder
of $50 innocent Arab men.
women and children on April
9, 1913. He boaStfully takes
credit in his book, THE Re-
VOLT" for the flight of Arab
refugees, stating that as a
result of the Dair Yaseen
massacre, Arabs throughout
Palestine were seized through
limitless panic and started to
flee for their lives the
political and economic signif-
icance can hardly be eSti-

Annuity Increases

I would like to straighten
out some people who think
that Government employees
who retired october /. 1856.
or after, all had 80 years of
service, and that's why they
were not included in S. 70,
granting annuity increases.
That isn't so and it isn't
right.
If civil service retirement
files were checked we would
find that over half of those
late retirees had Is years or
less service. They are just as
bad off as others who retired
a few years earlier. They
really should have been in
cluded in S. 70, That extra
10 per cent would help out a
little toward the high cost of
living.

MOSCOW, Aug. 80 (AP).-
Russia's "bring-'em- back-alive"
rocketing of two dogs 281 miles
into space has moved her a step
closer to achieving the same
feat with man. But Soviet
scientists have stressed that
there is still long way to go.
The Soviet government an
nounced last night that it had
shot two dogs into space aboard
a one-stage rocket and brought
them back in good health.
This is more than twice the
highest altitude achieved in
similar experiments reported in
the Soviet Union. But it is only
another in a long series of tests
which Russian scientists say
must precede any Soviet at
tempt to risk human life by
propelling man into space.
First reports from the latest
experiment gave no indication
that a similar attempt with a
human being was in the offing.
The Soviet news agency TaSs
said the two female dogs
named Belyanka and Peostraya
were sent aloft Wednesday
from a spot in European Russia
and landed Just where the SCI
entists intended.
lass said the dogs. weighing
10 pounds each, were placed in
a Theoretically sealed cabinet.
It did not indicate how they
came down. Previous reports
on similar Soviet experiments
over the last three years have
said the dogs were parachuted
down.
(The dogs came down by
parachute, 1t. Gen. Anatoly
A. Blagonravov told the Lon
don Daily Mirror by tele-
phone from Moscow. The
Soviet scientist said they
were aloft IS minutes and
were quite happy during the
fight

Tributes to thompson

I have always liked The

else appraisal Of world events.
While / have not always
agreed with her, I have felt
that her observations and
comments were the best found

honest and thought-provok-
ing.
1t is inconceivable that she
would voluntarily discontinue
her column at this critical
period in world developments,
and I with several friends
feel that beyond all reason
able doubt strong pressure
was brought on her by Zion
list groups to shut off her
accurate comments.
You must know even better
than l do that it is usually

than commend" that write

be that there are 100 people
who have liked Miss Thomp-
sons column for every one

Tense of the irritating car

Near East, and demanded her
destruction.
There are many Of us who
are quite capable of forming

illusions. regardless of Miss

we shall regretfully miss.
