SAMUEL SILVER (A Seven Arts Feature) It you were told that some one had accused Israel of being like the Nazis, what would be your guess about the source of the charge? An Arab? A Communist? A German antisem- Ite? An Amer- ioanazi? You would hardly guest where such an assault upon the — Israelis and truth emanated. In the same statement to which I refer Israel is indicted for “premeditated brutality.” The USS Liberty was “deliberately torpedoed” in this view. As for the U. S. it is seen as “favoring” Israel.

BATTER WHIPPED Sunbeam BAKED WITH PURE VEGETABLE SHORTENING BY ATLANTA BAKING COMPANY Israeli Student With Atlanta enough capital, this writer claims, "they would develop their own technology.” For 19 years, according to this individual, “Israel ha3 defied the UN.” He furthermore “explains” that American Jews regard crit icism of Israel “a blasphemous attack on their religious ident ity.” Author of these sentiments is a professor at Yale University named Dr. Willard G. Oxtoby. In an article in the July 26, 1967 issue of the magazine, Christian Century, Chioago, he has all these harsh things to say, and more. Do the Arab leaders merit any censure? Not in the opin ion of this man of God, a mem ber of a strange group at Yale University with strong sym pathies for the Arabs and icy hostility towards Israel. One of the most liberal establishments on earth, Yale University has everything, including a cluster of Arab ophiles who invariably speak, as Dr. Oxtoby does, about their “concern for truth and jus tice.” For counterpoint, the same issue of the magazine, devoted to the Middle East situation, has a superb article by Rabbi David Polish, of Evanston, declaring that before Christians speak well of Judaism they ought to indicate their belief in the right of Jews to exist; and a truly uplifting statement by Dr. A. Roy Eck- hardt, one of the great Christian voices of our day (and his wife) deploring the “silence” of the churches in the Middle East crisis. The Eckhardt article con tains the clearest analysis of Arab guilt for the Arab refugee situation you would want to read. Dr. Eckhardt teaches at Lehigh University in Bethlehem, Pa. The voice of Bethlehem ought to be heeded in that new haven of xenophobia, the little Yale cu bicle within one of the world’s greatest theologioal schools. Congressmen Say Israel Desires Durable Peace WASHINGTON (JTA)—A del egation representing the House Foreign Affairs Committee sub committee on Near Eastern Af fairs has returned with the over whelming impression that Israel was making a determined effort to translate the aftermath of its astounding military victory into a durable peace.” Rep. Leonard Farbstein, New York Democrat, and Rep. Wil liam Broomfield, Michigan Re publican, visited Israel and met with Prime Minister Eshkol and others. They said Mr. Eshkol outlined a suitable peace plan for Jordan, but they thought it depended upon the willingness of King Hussein to enter negotia tions. Premier Eshkol informed the Congressmen that within the framework of a general peace settlement, Israel would be pre pared to come to an agreement to grant Jordan free passage to the Mediterranean, to work tow ard Arab refugee settlement.
