Nehru Changes His Stand

the growing attacks of Egyptian COM
mando units from across the border and
destroy the offensive bases which Egypt
had built in the Sinai desert
We can still recall the vitriolic ad-
dresses which the Indian delegate then
delivered at the UN and his unrestrained
condemnation of IsraePs aggression"
One wonders whether he would repeat
these speeches now, in the light of In
diaS own experience on the Chinese bor-
der -.
In his reply to Mr.. Nehru, Mr.. Ben
Gurion, while expressing IsraePs appre
citation of IndiaS restraint and forebear-
ance and the need for measures to ease
the present tension, pointedly observed
that "all our efforts have been and are
directed towards the preservation of peace
in our area and throughout the world" e.
Further, noting that Israel proposed
to her Arab neighbors a general diSarma-
ment in Israel and in the Arab states and,
moreover, the signing of treaties of non
aggression, Mr.. Ben-Gurion says: 1--WE
believe that all states, great or small,
must be assured of their sovereignty, in
dependence, freedom and territorial in
tegrity. We are deeply convinced that all
international conflicts, anywhere on this
earth, can and must be resolved by peace
full means in accordance with the prin-
ciples of the UN Charter"

radiated from Mrs Roosevelt as she was

greeted by a Golden Age club member
who pressed forward to take Mrs Roose-
velt's hands.
"You are the queen here today" the
white-haired little lady said. you are do
ing us a very great honor"
And when Mrs. Roosevelt was taken
to the nursery school the teacher turned
breathlessly to the youngsters: Children,

But when the children turned quickly
back to their art work, Mrs Roosevelt
laughed heartily.

JERUSALEM - ISraePS Prime Minis
ter, David Ben-Gurion, has received a
message from the Prime Minister of In
dia, Jawaharlal Nehru, requesting the
support of Israel together with that of
all peace-loving countries" in her present
border dispute with China.
Mr.. Nehru's letter. condemning China's
"unjustified aggression" was sent to all
United Nations members and thus may
or may not signify any change in India's
attitude towards Israel.
Surely, Mr.. Nehru has ample ground
to feel frustrated by the reaction of his
closer friends from the neutral camp"
like that of Ghana, Ceylon and others.
Even Mr.. Nasser, whose interests he had
served so devotedly over the years, failed
to come out in India's support and, in
stead, issued a call to both sides" -.
1t is hard, and premature, to tell
whether and to what extent, Mr.. Nehru's
present experience will affect the phil
osophy which he had been expounding
over so many years on so many occasions
and his evaluation of the terms friend"
foe" or neutral Time will tell.
Yet, as far as Israel is concerned,
there is a rather significant coincidence
in the fact that the receipt here of Mr..
Nehrus message coincided- the day.

WHEN WE WERE kids
down south, an expression
we often heard and used was
"stuck up" 1 don't think it
is used any more. 1t had
nothing to do with the cur
rent "stick 'em up" 1t meant
putting on the dog"
My father used to buy odd
lots of shoes so that l usual
ly wore mismates, so natur-
ally it was hard for me to be
"Stuck up" 1 was just stuck.
One boy l knew had sweet
rolls for breakfast in the
morning; naturally he had
reason for being "stuck up"
If you lived in a better house,
you could be "stuck up"
There were a few who lived
in a better house and even
those whose parents could
speak English well and were
not stuck up, but there were
not many like that, it stands
to reason. But there were
some and they would associ-
ate with us as though we too
were of the manor born.
President Ben-Zvi of Israel
is not "stuck up" He insists,
1 am told, on shining his own
shoes. One day, he went out
of his house and found the
sentry guarding his home
had not had lunch. The SEN
try explained that the soldier
who was to have relieved
him had not arrived. So Ben
wi said to him: "You 60
ahead and take lunch, I'll
stand In your stead"
This, 1 think, is carrying
it too far. Suppose some for
eign diplomats had arrived
and seen the President of Is
rael standing guard? How
would il look? And what
would he say to the diplo-
mats? go in, take a seat.
There is an old copy of Life
Magazine on the table. Make
yourself a cup of tea. I have
to stay here and guard the
President" Besides, 1 doubt
whether Ben-Zvi is of the
type hardy enough to guard
the President.
The Arizona post., 1962-11-16

/ READ a similar story
about the soldier guarding
Ben-Gurion. Mrs. Paula Ben
Gurion asked him to go for
a bottle of milk. He an
sWered it was his duty to
guard the Prime Minister. So
Paula said to him: "You go
ahead and get the milk, I'll
protect the Prime Minister"
In this case, it's different
Paula can guard the Prime
Minister as well as any SOL
dier. Paula doesn't even need
a gun.
They are simple demo
cratic people, these rulers of
Israel, they are not stuck up.
Not Ben-Zvi and Ben-Gurion
alone, but all the host of
pioneer builders of Israel.
The other day, I listened to
Isaac Carmel make a speech
for Israel Bonds. He said,
all of the great Zionists
travelled fourth class. 'Do
you know why they travelled
fourth class?" he asked. 'Be-
cause" he answered, there
was no fifth class"
And that's the way it was.
They were rich only in hope.
When Ben-Gurion and Ben
wi made their first visit to
the US. during the First
World War, expelled from
Palestine by the Turks, they
were said to have frequently
made a meal of a herring.
Now 1 am not saying any
thing against herring! Her
ring is a wonderful food, if
you don't have to eat it, but
if you eat it, because you
can't afford anything else it
is not so good.
