NOTHING so BRIGHT
~ EMS up the interior and
exterior Of a home-and
gladdens the eye-as that
fresh, new coat of paint. But
it is well to keep in mind that
there is more to painting the
inside or outside surface of a
dwelling than meets the ulti-
mately gladdened eye.
1t is the proper prepara-
tion of the surface to be
painted that determines the
quality of the paint job. And
it takes more than a can OF
paint. a brdsh, and a pair OF
overalls to make a competent,
qualified housepainter worthy
of being classed as a PRO
fessional."
The number of satisfactory
craftsmen among those call
ing themselves housepainters
constitutes a minority. in my
opinion. Discovering , this
hard fact Of life is what has
driven many a homeowner to
join the ever-swelling ranks
of "do-it-yourself" painters.
A Big H0xord
In fact, finding a member
of this minority group, that
jewel beyond compare" we
call a good housepainter,
probably is the single, great
est hazard involved in having
your residence glorif1ed BY
paint. However, the hazard
can be greatly mitigated. if
not entirely eliminated, If the
following rules are needed:
l. Get a list of painters
considered reliable and COM
petent from your established
neighborhood paint dealer.
2. Invite at least three
from that list to give you an
estimate, in which each is to
spell out exactly what the
paint job will entail in the
way of surface preparation
and cost.
Here it is well to keep in
mind that in routine interior
painting over surfaces not
complicated by wallpaper to
be removed or otherwise un-
duly marred, the cost may
run about so per cent for
labor and 40 per cent for
materials. Average outside
painting estimates may run
as high as 80 per cent for
labor and 20 per cent for ma
terialS.
In housepainting, as in
other domestic services. 1t is
automatic that you usually
get what you pay for. Proper
surface preparation does take
time.
3. Get a reference from each
painter, preferably from
someone in your community

applying these new paints.
For exteriorS, however, two
coats are desirable unless
painting is done every two
years.
1t is q good rule to paint
exteriors every four to five
years. A thorough outside
paint job will include gutter
spouts (unless they are of
aluminum), all trim, and
should be preceded by scrap
ing of all loose paint and re-
placing rotted or water
soaked surfaces. Outside
work should not be done in
temperatures below SO de-
grees Fahrenheit, or in damp
weather.
Maybe in Winter
Interior work can be done
at any time. But it may be
more practical and economi-
cal to have it done in the
winter season when painters
are not occupied with out
side jobs and may be in
clined to offer better rates.
For the "do-it-yourself"
homeowner. these rules are
suggested:
/. Consult with a reliable
dealer before investing either
in paint or brushes. Tell him
the condition of your walls
and he will advise you how
to prepare them and what
paint and brushes may be
best for you to use.
2. Read the manufac-
turer's directions thoroughly
before using any of your paint
materials, and follow them
conscientiously for best re-
suits.
8. TAKE YOUR TIME! A
little care and lot of pa
tience will give you the pro-
fessional results you hope
for.
4. Never stop in the middle
of a wall or surface. Always
work to a corner or edge.
The amateur will find, gen.
orally, that the rubber-base
paints are easy to work with.
They are odor-free and
spread on easily. Whether
he chooses a brush or roller
depends on personal prefer
ence. The roller will give a
slight stippled effect, but it is
easier and faster to use.
Whichever you choose to
use, buy one of good quality.
For walls: A 4 to S inch
nylon brush compares well
with your top quality bristle;
an 8 to 10 inch roller, if
rolling paint on is for you.
For edging and trim, 1-inch
brush and a 2-inch brush
are "muStS -"

Editorial Comment:

The Police Commissioner OF New
York. Stephen S. Kennedy, struck too
close to home in backing up his order
that Jewish policemen must work on the
Jewish holidays during the current emer-
gency in New York City.
Commissioner Kennedy said that the
1900 Jewish members of the New York
police force must remain on duty because
of the emergency created by the large
number of Communist leaders attending
the United Nations General Assembly.
When New York rabbis demanded
cancellation of the order, Commissioners
Kennedy came back with some rather
pointed questions
He asked why do Jewish policemen
become religious for just three days
year? Why must they leave work for the
synagogue only on the three High Holy
DAYS when many of them do not attend
religious services the rest of the year?
And we asked ourselves, how does a
man with a name like Kennedy know
such inside facts? 1t turns out that Com
missioner Kennedy is married to Jew
eSs!

trated 19page article on Israel this week,

Boris Smolar:
Sinoi Doesn't Belong To Egypt

Col Meinertzhagen, an outstanding
British military expert, was later also the
Military Adviser to the Middle East De-
partment of the British Colonial Office.
In his Middle East Diary" an extremely
important and interesting book now pub
lished by the Thomas Yoseloff publishing
house, he considers it great mistake that
Egypt was allowed in 1856 to re-occupy
the part of Sinai which was already in
the hands of the Israeli Army, and which
does not belong to Egypt, anyway.
He reproduces the text of recommen'
dations he made at the Peace Conference,
in 1919 to British Prime Minister Lloyd
George, urging British annexation of
Turkish Sinai, thus establishing buffer
between Egypt and Palestine. This, he
pointed out then, would also give Britain
a strong foothold in the Middle East, with
access to both the Mediterranean and the
Red Sea.
He discloses that, when Lloyd George
approached President Wilson at the Yer
sailles Peace Conference on the subject
of British sovereignty in Sinai, Mr.. Wilson
did not favor it. Col. MeinertZhagen's
middle East Diary" is behind the scenes"
history of Palestine and Israel with which
the author was associated from 1917 until
after the SueZ crisis of 1856.

The War Is Over
The New Policies In Israel

DISPUTE centered on the abduction of
Adolph Eichmann Then comes the for
eign ministry's legal adviser, Shabta1 Ros-
enne-the man who worked out the 'ac-
commodation" between Jerusalem and
Buenos Aires, ending that unfortunate
dispute. Finally there is an expert on
relations with Western Europe, Eliahu
Sasson, IsraePs Ambassador to Italy.
There follow, among the members of
the large delegations this year, experts
on relations with African states, sclen-
tific, labor and social welfare experts,
economic specialists, and military ex-
pert, Col Mishael Shaham, who has been
detached from the Israel Army to work
with the delegation during this session.
Israel is not wasting its time and et-
forts even to oppose the election OF the
United Arab Republic to the Security
Council. That election is a foregone con-
clusion The UAR contends it has the
backing of the Afro-Asian bloc for that
seat. The United States has committed
itself to vote for the UAR's election to
the Council.
The focus here has shifted from the
Middle East That region has brought
nothing but Illustration and helplessness
here. 1t is to Africa and to Latin America
that attention has shifted, and will con-
tinue shifting increasingly. And when the
rest of the world wakes up to acceptance
of that fact, it will find that Israel had
already preceded it by making friends
and influencing peoples and governments
in those very areas

The Commissioner Hit Home

Look Editor j. Robert Moskin writes
that many American Jews disagree with
the stand of the Israeli government that
for all Jews Israel is the homeland.
The article states that the American
Jew feels deep affection-but no allegl-
ance-to the State of Israel. This is
generality that is only skin-deep accurate.
American Jews do feel an allegiance to
Israel that goes beyond affection, but
stops short of transfer in national citizen
ship.
The article asks whether the State of
Israel can speak for Jews throughout the
world and brings up the Eichmann trial
as a case in point.
Yes, in the Eichmann case and in other
matters directly affecting world JeWry,
Israel has a right to represent the Jew.
Eichmann's crime was not only against
the Jews of Germany and Poland. He
ordered the slaughter of Jews not be-
cause they were Polish Jews or German
Jews; he called for the death of Jews
wherever they could be found.
And there will be special satisfaction
to Jews throughout the world who were
fortunate to escape the Nazi cremation
ovens when Eichmann comes to trial in
a courtroom where Jewish flag proudly
waves!

The War Is Over

fifteenth session of the General Assembly

ernment a dime a dozen and with more
eclat, security, artificial excitement ana
a race for TV network time than one ever

stood out in regard to Israel
The war is over.

here to fight against anyone or anything
except in self-defense. Careful examlna-
ton of the composition of 1sraers Assem-

point.

Boris Smolar:

SINAI SECRETS: Something import
ant has been revealed in book on the
Middle East published recently IN tne
limited States-and this is-that the Sinai
desert all the way between the Gulf Oh
Suez and the Gulf of Akaba does not legal
ly belong to Egypt
Experts on international law would
find that the entire territory Whlcn
stretches from Rata to Suez and along the
Gulf of Suez, as we'll as the part OF Sinai
stretching along the Negev and from Ellat
TO Sham el-Sheikh, is not part of Egypt.
This area was under Turkish sovereignty
and, without the aid of Egypt, was occu-
pied in the First World War by the British
forces under General Allenby.
By the right of conquest this conquered
and occupied part of Turkish Sinai was at
British disposal and was never transferred
to Egypt. A request to internationallze this
area and put it under United Nations SUI
pervision would probably be found justi-
fled by an international tribunal. The
revelation that this strategic part of Sinai
does not legally belong to Egypt is made
bv such an authority as Col. Richard
Meinertzhagen, former Chief Political
Officer of the British Administration in
Palestine.

On YOm Kippur, all Jews
get glimpse of the burning
bush. We remember we are
Jews. During the rest of the
365 days many of us try as
siduously to forget it. We
think we'll be happier if we
forget it, but on Yom Kippur,
we remember, we cease try
ing to be what we are not.
Be yourself, said the great
American, Emerson. On Yom
Kippur, we are ourselves
and find ourselves more con-
tent for being so.
No matter what kind of a
Jew one whether he is 100
percent Jew, or like wines II
percent, or like beer, seven or
eight percent or like some Of
the near beer of prohibition
days, one-half of one percent
whatever the percentage, he
remembers Yom Kippur.
We remember because it is
the day of fasting.
Food. How terribly import
ant it is!
There was famine in the
land" writes the Bible, and
so old Jacob and his sons
picked up and went to Egypt
to get cortland they were
enSlaved.
Announce that there will be
no food for three days and in
four hours, all of the eight
million inhabitants of New
York City will clear out to go
look for it.
There has been published a
Hebrew book in Israel called
1.-THE Clock Overhead" by K.
Zetnick, which to me, gives
the most powerful expression
of the meaning of food.
The book deals with the
Nazi atrocities and there is
one chapter called Praying in
AuschWitZ. To the inmates of
AuschWitZ, waiting for execu-
ton, life was one long Yom
Kippur. Even death seemed
less painful than the constant
hunger. Here is one passage
of the chapter:
"a thousand lips murmur
one prayer, oh God, when I
reach the block servant
(about to hand out the mid
day soup ration) let me get a
large bowl
Everyone knows in his
heart that in a large bowl
you get no more than in a
small one. And yet the life
within your carcass quivers,
oh God, a large bowl From
a large bowl, you eat quite
differently. When you have
finished eating, you have
more bowl left to lick. And
above all, when you walk
away from the vat with a
large bowl in your hands, you
can be quite certain that not
one drop of your soup ration
will spill, Heaven forbid, Oh
God ONLY not that"

Furthermore, the parking meters aren't
in keeping with the Centennial theme They
didn't have them back in the days when Rock
vile became an Incorporated town and, as
long as we're reverting to the olden days in
the growth of boards and the elimination of
lpstick and other forms of makeup, we ought
to scrap all semblance of modern living.
Not only that, but the city has validated
the wooden niekels that are now recognized
as legal currency in this Centennial year. So
how are we going to explain away the fact
that the new-fangled parking meters won't
even accept the presumed pulp posing as
legalized currency?
The only logical answer seems to be a
suspension of enforcement
And, we could go step further. Our
police force, small as it is could be briefed
on the history of Rockville and persuaded to
dispense the information to visitors instead
of handing out traffic tickets. We firmly be-
leve it would meet with favorable reaction.
We're not, of course, advocates of an
archy. But we do believe that most visitors
to our city are here for legitimate reasons
and not for the purpose of wrong-doing.
Therefore, we think, they would be apprecia.

put in the most time on staff
work were Joe Tydings, who

Delaware delegations, and
Claude Desautels, who was in

Every morning at $50 we
met for a briefing session pre-

The most interesting of these
was the Wednesday morning
session, when the liaison men
made their final reports on
the number Of votes Senator

their respective delegations on
the first ballot. 1t was very,
very close to the final total on

Press headquarters were in

which is an auditorium on the
lower level of the Biltmore
Hotel, where press confer
ences seemed to be going on
at any hour of day or night.
The most exciting of these
was Senator Kennedy's con-
ference at 4 pm. on the day
after his nomination. When he
said that he would suggest to
the convention that it nomi-
nate Senator Lyndon johnson
as his running mate, / almost
