Bv RABBI ALBERT PLOTKIN

Nothing is more frustrating than
the tragedy of being unable to
speak because you are granted no
voice in the court of world opinion.
The late DR.. Chaym WeiZmann re-
veals that after World War I. in
the meeting of the League of Ma
tons, leaders of the Jewish people
had to wait In corridors. lacking
the right to speak before the coun-
Gil of nations. DR.. Weizmann and
other leaders vowed that the time
would come when the voice of Is
rael would be heard.
That time has come. There has
arisen in the United Nations a
voice most eloquent, powerful in
diction, persuasive in logic. and
moving in oratory. That voice is
that of the ambassador to the Unit
ed States and to the United Nations
from Israel, Abba Eban. At the
age of 35 he is the youngest official
to hold such a rank in Washing
ton.

Eloquent Israel DipIomu+

read between the lines TO gam tne
thought, and in this tradition Abba
Eban has brought into fruition
style of writing that inspires TO
thought and understanding.
What is the theme of these es-
says? It can be stated simply. De-
fine your object; declare your
need; say what you want-then and
only then consider the obstacles.
Don't renounce your detectives IN
favor of the obstacles.
THIS WAS THE philosophy OF
the birth of the state of Israel. With
swiftness of decision those VINO
brought Israel into existence knew
their objective, believed in it with
whole heart, and declared their
need to save the homeless refugees.
Then the obstacles were faced, ana
these obstacles were no problem.
for the objective was so deeply and
firmly a part of their thinking
that nothing could stand in their
path.
This voice of eloquence pro-
pounds the belief in the supreme
confidence of the goal for which
the Jew is reaching. Thunder and
lightning and the voice of the trum-
pet exceedingly loud-this is the
theme which Eban uses as he faces
each of the grave problems which
were hurled so suddenly at this
new nation.
HE CLOSES the essays with the
belief that though the road is
still dark and foreboding with
many pitfalls. yet he is confident
that achievements are still within
IsraePs power to fully attain. The
blueprint of a brighter future can
never be taken away from our writ
er's conviction and imagination.
His is still that ancient faith OF
four thousand years, the pas
sionate belief of peace. and that
dynamic idealism which works fol-
justice-"Hava Negela, let us re-
joice, for tomorrow is surely bet
ter day."

WHEREVER he has gone. his
speeches have been eloquent in
debate, and the collection of these
talks recently were published In q
book entitled, "The Voice OF Is
rael." This volume is a Joy to
read, not because of its particular
interest as regards the state OF
Israel, but in the fact that 1t IS
a voice sending out the difficult
problems of our age.
Eban, although representative of
a small country. is in thought and
ideas as broad as the world itself
No problem escapes this analytic
mind. No challenge goes unan-
swered. No crisis is without its
eloquent defender who has stood
the test of standing alone.
WHAT is remarkable is Eban'S
tremendous command of language
in a style that reminds one of
Churchill's memorable wartime ad-
dresses. What moves you is the
economy of words and the tight,
compact uiOuSI1L uPOi WAhSA uAS0C
arguments are so ably phrased.
1t is easy to make, as Shake
speare said, "much ado about no
thing" It is difficult to speak
clearly, distinctly, and briefly. The
greatest speeches ever given have
been brief, and their brevity has
contained a far greater message
than in the abounding speeches
that seem to go on almost to eter-
nifty.
Where does Eban obtain this
