half of this nomination? Did you
know that he did? Have you dis
cussed the appointment with the
Israeli ambassador"
A heading appeared in the Off
cial committee transcript: "Ques-
ton of foreign Intervention in Sc
lection of a nominee" There fol-
lowed Fulbright's report that Am
bassador Abba Eban had called
on him "but without my soliciting
his views, he volunteered the opin-
ion that this (ReiO was very
acceptable appointment F"
THE EBAN VISIT was described
by Fulbright after discussion of
whether it was appropriate for
foreign ambassadors to follow
any course that might be inter-
preted as an attempt to inter-
vene in the selection by the United
States ambassadors to any foreign
posts"
Reid was subsequently confirm
ed as ambassador despite battle
by Fulbright and other opposition.
Colleagues of the senator, known
to be friendly to Israel, said that
his attitude on the Reid nomina-
ton should not be taken to reflect
hostility toward Israel. They des-
cribed Fulbright as taking his
relatively new status as chairman
Every seriously and said that he
was striving for "strict impartial
ity' on Middle Eastern issues in
line with State Department sug-
gestions.
The question whether this pur-
suit of 'impartiality'' will be at
IsraePS expense remains to be
answered.

Proposal
Revival
Planned

- 1IAG <11llC1AC04h
Zionist Committee for Public Af-
fairs has urged a letter writing
campaign to u. S. senators in sup
port of Sen. Wayne Morse's pro-
posal to ban American aid to coun-
tries which discriminate against
Americans on the, grounds Of race
or religion.
Morse, an Oregon Democrat, of
fered the plan as an amendment
to the Mutual Security Act, aim
ing at Saudi Arabia's ban on Jews
at the Dhahran air base. 1t was
defeated 47-43 but Morse plans to
re-submit the amendment when
the Mutual Security appropriations
bill comes up because he believes
that some who voted against it
were not fully informed of the
issue when the roll was called.
ARIZONA'S SENIOR senator,
Carl Hayden, opposed the amend
ment. Sen. Barry Goldwater Of
Arizona voted in its favor.
The Zionist committee pointed
out that both parties adopted
planks for 1855 platforms which
are consistent with the Morse
amendment.
The Republican plank: 1--WE ap-
prove appropriate action to oppose
the imposition by foreign govern
ments of discrimination against
United States citizens, based on
their religion or race
The Democratic plank: We
oppose, as contrary to American
principles, the practice of any
government which diScriminateS
against American citizens on
grounds of race or religion. We
will not countenance any arrange
ment or treaty with any govern
ment which by it's terms or in its
practical application would sane
ton such practices"
THE MORSE PROPOSAL was
supported in joint declaration by
the American Jewish Congress,
Jewish Labor Committee, Jewish
War Veterans, Union of American
Hebrew Congregations, Union of
Orthodox Jewish Congregations,
and the United Synagogue OF
America.
These groups commended the 4S
senators who voted in favor OF the
amendment and cited a resolution
unanimously adopted by the Sem
ate in 1855 which declared the
Senate regarded "such distinctions
directed against United States
citizens as incompatible with the
relations that should exist among
friendly nations and that in all
negotiations between the United
States and any foreign state every
reasonable effort should be made
to maintain this principle"
THE GROUPS joint statement
asserted:
Despite this resolution, our
government continues not only to
tolerate discrimination of the kind
the Senate condemned, but to act
in effect as partner in such dis
examinations against United States
citizens, by such measures as the
screening of American military
and diplomatic personnel accord
ing to religion before making as
signments to service in Arab
states; acceptance by the Pass
port Service of the State Depart
ment of the refusal of Arab coun-
tries to honor American passports
carried by Jews; and the sanction
ing of the exclusion of Jews from
employment in the Middle East
by American industrial and COM
mercial firms"

District officials turned a

The telegram said that

Dirksen Hits
Charges on
Building Cost

Senate Minority Leader
Dirksen today answered
charges that the new $25.5
million Senate office building,
with its expensive "embellish-
ments and marble fittings," is
to costly.
Much has been said to con-
vey the impression that this
structure is an unnecessary ex-
travagance on the part Of the
Senate" said Senator Dirksen.
But, he said. there has been a
tremendous increase in legisla-
tive business since the first
Congress opened ITO years ago
this month.
STATS Of all legislators have
had to be enlarged to cope with
this business. he said.
Although he did not refer to
him by name. the Minority
Leader might have been talking
about what his Republican COL
league, Senator Cotton Of New
Hampshire. had to say about
the building yesterday.
Senator Cotton quipped that
the building brought to his
mind a schoolboy's essay on the
camel: "A camel is an animal
that looks like he had been put
together by a committee.
THE new Office building was
not only put together by a COM
mittee but by one that changed
members constantly during con-
struction," he added.
Senator Cotton said he saw
no need for the buildings 500
seat auditorium. gymnasium
and roof sun deck. Committee
rooms are too pretentious and
Senator's desks in hearing
rooms are too high. he added.
Senator Dirksen said that be-
sides the tremendous business
increase in Congress, many
more individuals and groups
come to Washington now in
the interests Of legislation. He
said Senators and Representa-
tives require vast amounts of
research to carry on CORE
spondence with their constit-
uentS.

BY THIS TIME we were
approaching the traffic circle
on the Virginia side Of Me-
mortal Bridge.
"Let me show you some
thing" said George Harding,
and he slowed the car, drove
right over the curb and onto
the grass. That's probably
permissible for one of the
top men in our park system,
but it didn't seem right to
the Rambler. He kept look
ing back for the Park Police,
but they didn't show.
We've got some test plots
over here" said George Hard
ing as he cut a wide circle on
the sward and came to some
square patches of various
colors Of green.
Nov which would you say
is the true grass color?"
The Rambler pointed to
one square which was at
once darker and more vivid
than the others.
Right said George Hard
ing. Look at the others.
That's what we've had to put
up with for years, pea green,
Kelly green, blue green, yell
low green, everything but
grass green. People were
laughing at US. But at last a
natural color is available"
We got out Of the car.
"Pick some of It," said
George Harding. Crunch it
between your fingers. You'll
see that the color doesn't
come off on them"
The Rambler did SO. His
hands became dirty from SCOT
deposit but not green. The
grass blades we're SO dry he
couldn't get a grass stain out
