Amer who expressed under

affairs of the army and took
adequate measures to solve
these problems.
What these problems were
was not explained.
Mr.. Nasser had warned the
rebels earlier in Cairo broad
cast that he had issued orders
for the $4,000 well-armed Egyp-
tian soldiers in Syria to march
on Damascus. the Syrian capi-
tai, and stamp out the uprising.
Broadcasts from Aleppo in
Northern Syria said Northern
Syrian tribes were standing by
Mr.. NasSer.
The broadcast communique
said:
The higher Arab revolu-
tionary command Of the armed
forces, impelled by a feeling
of fear for Arab unity and by
it's enthusiasm for Arab ma
tionalism and its support for
it and protection of its funda-
mentals. declares to the Arab
people that it does not intend
to harm the victories scored by
Arab nationalism. Also it de-
clares that it has noticed a
destructive element and oppor-
tunists who wish to harm our
nationalism.
Solution of Problems
For this it has responded to

hot explain what this meant.
Cairo newscaSts ignored the
.communique, however, leaving
in doubt whether anyone had
yet gained a victory.
But Cairo said a statement
by Marshal Amer would be
broadcast soon.
Egypt Predominant
The revolt broke out only
two days after Abdul Hamid
Serial, a former Syrian intel
ligence chief with strongman
ambitions, broke with Mr.. Mas
ser and returned to Damascus
from Cairo, where he had been
a vice president in the UAR
government.
His resignation left but one
Syrian in a high post in the
UAR government, emphasizing
Egyptian predominance in the
union of the two countries pro-
claimed in February 1858. The
two countries are separated by
$50 miles of Israeli and Arab
territory.
Mr.. Serraj was reported to
have resented being kicked
upstairs" to the vice presidency
last month, because it involved
a loss of power in Syria and a
corresponding increase in au-
thority for his rival, Marshal
Amer.
Serial Role Unclear
1t was not yet clear what
role, if any, Mr.. Serraj played
in the revolt.
In what was called a United
Arab Republic broadcast, "
Damascus Radio said the sit
uation returned to normal "be-
cause of the wisdom" of Mar
shal Amer and Gen. Canal
Feisal, the Syrian Army COM
mander.
With his prestige and au-
thority seriously challenged,
Mr.. Nasser ordered the $4,000
well-armed Egyptian soldiers
in Syria to crush the uprising.
Grieving that Arab blood
will be shed by Arabs" he
said in a broadcast from
Cairo:
1T is impossible that l could
join the enemies of national
ism and announce the disso-
luton of the United Arab Re-
public"
At one point Radio Damascus
claimed that Marshal Amer,
Mr.. NasSer'S chief reliance in
crushing the revolt, had been
arrested in the predawn up
rising.
AirfieldS Closed
1t also declared all ports and
airfieldS had been closed-to
prevent reinforcement of the
Egyptians-and that the rebels,
were fully in control Of the
situation" in all parts of Syria.
The revolutionaries also
claimed the support of the
UAR air force commander in
Syria and the army command
ers in Westerns and Southern
Syria. Northern tribesmen
around Aleppo were reported
backing Mr.. NaSser, however. Z

stupid
AS measured by standards considerably
nothing of the offer resultant play represents
Evening star., 1961-05-04

gives a man a chance to philo-
sophie.
Director Strickland whose
Major Barbara" was one Of
last seasons highlights at
Arena, seems Of one mind with
Shaw in the argument that
man has not made much of
himself. Not much more than
an idiot, really, with his fifth
rate political sense. his shabby
art, his meSmeric religions,
and, perhaps worst of all, the
family.
Arenas cast is a collection of
easy converts to Shaw's con-
victionS.
Certainly impressive in voic-
ing them are the plays three
most voluble leads. These are
Robert Mill, as Tanner and
Don Juan; Gretchen Kanne, as
Ann and Hell's divinely dis
contented Dona Ana; and
Kendall Clark. who plays a
wonderfully winsome Devil and,
on earth, Mendoza, the brigand.
These are everything Shaw
expects of them which is prin-
cipally variations on Shaw. AS
such. they are people of pas
sionate convictions, overpower-
ing intellect, shattering wit,
and invincible righteousness in
their several causes.
Whatever pretentions to su-
periority the play gives them
are seriously challenged by
others in the company. One of
these is Robert Prosky, as the
stuffy Victorian on earth and,
in Hell, the equally stuffy Com
mander. Others are Alan Op-
penheimer as Hector Malone,
the truculent American out
slider; Ronnie Claire Edwards
as the guileful Violet Robinson;
David O'Brien as the sensitive,
simpering OrtaviuS Robinson;
Harry Bergman as Tanners
egalitarian chauffeur; and
Marie Carroll as the doughty,
harrasSed mother of the hero
inc.
Arenas farewell production
in its present theater is Alto
gether a usually attractive one,
too. with sets by Bill H. Demos
and Mariana Elliott's vivid
period wardrobe. In sum, then,
this Man and Superman" adds
up to the large economy size
Shaw and an attractive bar
gain 1t is.

Own Tale of Horror

Under the cracking veneer
of goth century civilization,
there lies an abyss of monstrous
evil that is literally X-rayed in
the film. "Mein Kampf," at
the Trans-Lux and Playhouse
theaters.
The picture is the work OF
a Swedish Jew, Erwin Lesser.
and Mr.. Lesser is a truly re-
markable man.
He knows, no one better,
that fact can speak for itself
with more strangling shock
than anyone can speak for it.
;Dispassionately. then. out Of an
apparently limitless official war
film footage = Nazi, German
secret police, Wehrmacht, and
master race propaganda-he
has let Adolf Hitler tell his
own monstrous story.
"Mein Kampf" is an account
of one life, wretched. frustrated,
and psychotic which cost so
million lives, A more than the
six million murders for which
Adolf Eichmann is now on
trial in Israel. More, it is an
appallingly complete accounting
which follows Hitler from a
rompered tyke in Vienna to the
hysterical military posturer
heading for that Berlin suicide
bunker.
The moviegoer Of 1861 may
think he is shockproof through
an already too detailed famili-
arity with Hitler's "Kampf."
He is nothing Of the kind
and sequence after sequence
in the film suggests he never
will be. Just, indeed, as does
the fascination Of William l..
Shirer's "Rise and Fall Of the
Third Reich" and that of the
daily reports of the 400 news
men covering the Eichmann
trial.
Neither of the latter, Incl
dentally. captures the abomin-
able reality Of the Hitler years
as does Leiser's film. This is be-
cause the hundreds of cameras
which recorded "Mein Kampt"
never stop saying that its main
character is a ridiculous mita-
ton Of q man. And humanity's
least likely candidate to become
history's master murderer.
Yet, this pasty, slack-jawed
blob is shown emerging from

the bottom Of the German
masses to create a plague Of
violence whose end is nowhere
in sight Is years after his own
death. Successor blobs, bearded,
unbathed, bloated grotesques
out of science fiction remain
too evident on the scene Hitler
has departed.
With what eyes. the spectator
at "Mein Kampf" wonders, do
these view such scenes as:
Hitlers death factories at
AuSchwitz, huge gas plants,
with their vast storerooms for
such by-products as the false
teeth, the hair, clothing and
shoes of the victims.
The almost unbearable War
saw ghetto sequences with their
skeletal hordes of starved chill
dren. sitting among the bodies
of relatives and friends dying
too rapidly to be collected and
buried in often self-dug lime
pits.
The hysterical masses
screaming approval of the hyp-
motto pre-war Fuhrer'S speech
es, their defeated remnants
later symbolized by a starving
victim hacking at the bloated
body of a horse dead in a Ber-
lin street.
With dozens of other shots
from Hitler's album of the
family of man, "Mein Kampf"
shouts the horrible futility Of
the slogan, tomorrow, the
world"

Splendors. That nothing mas
approached it in intellectual
fun is being demonstrated once
again. this time in Arena
Stages production of the play.
The seasons finale, this is.
due to run the rest of May.
With the rarely included Don
Juan in He'll" sequence woven
into a deftly edited three acts,
the production represents some
thing Of a cram course in
Shaw.
1t is being taught quite de-
lightfully, the seasons high
point since The Egg" which
was a later model and less
lofty comment on what is
wrong with us miSfits.
Between the two plays. the
older one as timely as Felicien
Marceau's THE Egg" Arena is
giving it's customers more en-
joyable education than any
other local institution we can
think of this season. Nothing
could argue more promisingly
for a greater number of en-
rolees, or subscribers, when the
group moves next autumn into
its new, more capaciouS theater.
There is something awesome
in any venture to include the
Don Juan in He'll" act in
Man and Superman." 1t de-
mands a brilliant Job of edit
ing. but one brought off by
Managing Director Zelda
Fichandler and F. CowleS
Strickland, who also directed
the play. Another requirement
is a forceful, fearless cast, the
kind that Arena happily comes
up with whenever Shaw is the
subject.
The eternal problem Of
Shaw, most acute in Man and
Superman," is not the count
less words he gives actors to
memorize and audiences to
hang onto. 1t is rather to turn
a collection of mouthpieceS in
to recognizable human. and
neetingly Superhuman, beings.
The remarkable aspect Of the
Arena production is that it ac-
complishes this far better than
a great many more pretentious
versions Of the play.

Ancient City
Is Uncovered

JERUSALEM, (JTA)-The
remains of a great city built
at the end of the reign of
King David or at the start of
that of King Solomon were
reported to have been un-
covered near Elm Gev during
recent excavations in the
area.
A team of archaeologists,
headed by Professor Binya-
min Mazar, found the city
and reported that one of the
most remarkable excavation
findings was a large jar bear
ing the inscription '1eshak-
va" which Professor MaZar
interpreted to mean belong
ing to the wine steward, 3"
in Aramaic.
The Importance of the in
scription was understood to
be the fact that it is written
in early Hebrew Phoenician
script and is one of the few
known examples of this
script dating to the ninth cen
tury bee.
