UNITED NATIONS, (WUP)—
Entering the UN compound one
early morning this past week,
filled with thoughts of the mul
tiple problems to bedevil the
15th General Assembly opening
on the 20th—an Assembly which
will see the heads of nations de
clare their own positions in the
cold war—the attention of your
correspondent was again drawn
to Israel’s unique gift to the
world organization, namely,
finely-polished stones quarried
near Jerusalem which today
comprise a garden area fronting
the Conference Building and
linking the tall and stately Sec
retariat structure with the dome
shaped General Assembly edi
fice.
For a moment a strange sensa
tion overtook your correspond
ent. Perhaps it was the spirit of
the High Holy Day season—a
good time to think and reflect—
that moved him. Yet here, amid
the mass of marble, glass and
steel that compose this Inten-
national City, was “a little bit”
of the Holy City transplanted, so
to speak, on the UN compound.
Those Israeli stones, deeply stir
ring one’s soul almost to the de
gree of the Wailing Wall blocks
but in a happier outlook, seemed
to signify something—the his
tory of the Jewish peoples
throughout the ages from Abra
ham the Patriarch to Moses the
Liberator and Lawgiver unto
the establishment of the king
doms under David and Solomon
to the destruction of the great
Temples, the Diaspora and, fin
ally, after nearly 2000 years, the
re-establishment of the Third
Hebrew Commonwealth in our
own days.
These Jerusalem stones, differ
ing from the gray marble of all
other structures by their unique
pink hue—impressed this writer
as a sort of sentinel guarding
"something” sacred: peace, jus
tice, righteousness, all gummed
up in the designation “Israel”
and Israel’s Torah, the first
real Charter of Human Rights
to bless mankind. In the fact of
the bitter debates constantly in
process here by the nations of
the world, this “little bit” of the
Holy Land, it seemed, stood
forth as a challenge to all to ex
ecute justice.
Interestingly as well as sig
nificantly, a Japanese “peace
bell” hanging in a pagoda rises
over an altar-like elevation on
these Jerusalem stones.

As your correspondent thus
reflected over this wonderful
Jewish symbol in the world
organization, he couldn’t fail to
marvel over the miracle of this
age—Israel reborn in the ancient
land; Israel’s phenomenal growth
amid adversity; Israel’s stability
ia an instable region; Israel’s
respected position in a world
organization where states are
constantly at logger-heads; Is
rael’s contribution to the welfare
of the new Asian and African
states. Truly, he felt that, even
as these eternal Jerusalem stones
now form a permanent fixture
here at the UN and symbolize
peace, order, justice—the pass
words of Jewry—so the State
of Israel, as a UN member, ful
fills this symbolization in action
here.
The UN boasts of many other
gifts from member states, most
of them symbolizing peace. None,
however, posseses the simplicity
and beauty of Israel’s contribu
tion.
When the UN visitor enters
the spacious Public Lobby he is
immediately confronted with
three imposing gifts to the ex-
tereme lefts and a naked m^le—
a statue of the Greek god
Zeus, the gift of Greece; in the
center, hanging from the high
ceiling, is a shining silvery
sputnik, the gift of the USSR,
and to the extereme left, also
hanging from the ceiling, is an
eternally-moving Foucault Pend
ulum proving that the earth ro
tates on its axis—the gift of the
Netherlands.
The gifts of these and other
nations symbolize many things:
science, beauty, love, art, mu
sic, etc. The one gift symbolizing
more than any other the aims
and purposes of the UN Charter
is the “little bit” of the Holy
Land presented by Jerusalem
out of which, Isaiah predicted,
“Law will go forth” for all peo
ples.
This writer would invite the
heads of delegations meeting
here now to re-read and re-studY
the UN Charter, especially Arti
cle 1, Paragraph 3:
“To achieve international co
operation in solving internation
al problems of an economic, so
cial, cultural, dr humanitarian
character, and in promoting and
encouraging respect Srr human
rights and for fundamental fn*
doms for all without distinction
as to race, sex, language, or re
ligion . . ”
