THE SOUTIIBN 18IAIL1TI
Behind UN Sc cues—by David Horowitz
New Arab Voice
UNITED NATIONS (WUP) —
It is indeed a rarity when an
Arab leader makes a special ef
fort to embark on a discourse
of universal peace, especially if
that leader belongs to a royal
house. Imperial observations on
this broad field have thus far
been the almost special monop
oly of Emperor Selassie of Ethi
opia, veteran of the League of
Nations and of doctrines per
taining to global peace and col
lective security.
Any move in the direction of
peace by an Arab head of state
holds special significance for Is
rael which is ever seeking to

break the deadlock in the Middle
Eastern dispute.
Now it appears that King Fai
sal of Saudi Arabia, heretofore
rather reticent, has embarked on
some unusual pronouncements.
In both private talks and in
public statements — during the
current foregathering of Moslems
in Mecca for their great Hegira—
Faisal has expressed rather full-
somely his deep anxiety over the
state of the world. His pronounce
ments have been capped with
urgent appeals for world peace.
Everywhere, Faisal lamented,
tensions exist in waves of great
uncertainty, discontent, violence,
greed and immorality and insta
bility sweep across the earth. He
disclosed that he had expressed
these anxieties at some length
to officials of- other countries and
international organizations in
what he termed the need for
some unifying and stabilizing in
fluence in the world.
“We,” he declared, “do not in
tend to attack anyone.” His coun
try, he added, is not taking sides
in any of the bitter quarrels now
going on between so many coun
tries. "We are trying to be friend
ly to all.”
He then repeated: "We do not
intend to attack anyone.”
Not Israel either?
One can hardly believe this.
Yet the words are unmistakable
and would seem to imply a final
disassociation from any of the
others in the Arab group now in
open declaration of threats and
wars against Israel.
One thing may be clear here.
King Faisal, apparently, was de
taching himself from his former
delegate to the UN, the bitter
and irreconciliable archfoe of
Israel, Ahmad Shukairy, who
only last week again came to the
fore on behalf of his “liberation"
movement which he has sworn
would recapature "Palestine”
for the Arab refugees.
It is important to note, in this
context, that Faisal, whose coun
try is the land of the Hegira, did
not make his pronouncements in
purely political terms but in the
higher atmosphere of spiritual
appeal. He made them before

the thousands of Moslems as
sembled in their annual pilgrim
age to honor the Prophet.
It is further significant to note
that, in recent months, King Fai
sal has sought to organize the
forces of Islam into a spiritual
fraternity only to be rebuffed
first and foremost by Abdul
Gamal Nasser in Cairo.
Above all, the Saudi Arabian
ruler made his pronouncement in
terms of universal peace. The
world, he said, finds itself in a
spiritual crisis. He urged world
leaders to “work individually to
ease present tensions.”
Was this an invitation to each
Arab State to bury the hatchet,
for each to reduce tensions?
Something may be happening
in the Arab world. President
Habib Bourguiba set the pace
when he called upon the Arabs
to recognize the existence of Is
rael. A seed was sown. And even
Nasser’s Egypt did not detain or
arrest Abie Nathan. He was wel
comed with honor and respect
and sent back in peace. No one
believed this would have happen
ed, least of all the Israelis them
selves.
As for King Faisal, it might be
wise to take him at his words
and see what happens.
Republicans Take
Hand in Inquiry
On “Rat Finks"
TRENTON, N. J. (JTA)— Ray
Bliss, Republican national com
mittee chairman, agreed to dis
cuss with New Jersey state and
national Republican officials a
stalemated inquiry into alleged
anti-Semitic and anti-Negro ac
tivities of a rightist faction in the
New Jersey Young Republican
organization, it was reported
here.
The chairman’s office said the
meeting would be held in Wash
ington, April 18. Those attending
were to include Richard Smith, ex
ecutive director of the State Com
mittee; Mrs. Katherine Neuber-
ger, national committeewoman;
and Clark Allen, president of the
New Jersey Young Republicans.
The national and state Young
Republicans in New Jersey have
been locked in a dispute over the
transcript of a secret meeting
conducted by the national YR of
fice in Trenton, last February.
The national and state probes
stemmed from charges that anti-
Semitic and anti-Negro song-
fests were held at YR parties dur
ing the state convention last May,
and at the national convention in
Miami last June, by the rightist
faction, self-named as “Rat
Finks.”
The state YR investigators held
two hearings in March, at which
they heard testimony that def
amatory songs were sung by Rat
Finks at both conventions and at
private gatherings. Introduced at
the hearings were copies of mim
eographed song-sheets containing
such words as “kikes” and “nig
gers.”
