Twenty-five years seem a long time. In the perspective of his tory, however, the quarter of a century does not even add up to a second. But what a ‘sec ond’ this has been! Historic? Indeed, for all mankind includ ing, of course world Jewry which, though resurrected in sovereignity- in the ancient homeland, had met with a catas- HERB MENDEL Ready To Trade Your WAY NOW BOOMERSHINE PONTIAC INCORFORATID 426 Spring St, N.

It has been a dark, trying and perplexing period. But out of a ray of light; a beacon, radiated in the land of Zion which be came the haven of the hundreds of thousands of escapees, broken in body and weary in spirit. The ‘dry bones’ came to life. It was truly a resurrection. And one may ask during this 25th birthday of the UN: what role did the World Organization play as an ‘instrument’ towards the resurrection of Israel? That it played a vital role in 1947 and 1948 goes without saying. The vote on ‘Partition’—despite the many abortive attempts to frus trate positive action—is recorded in UN archives as one of the most historic acts on the part of the General Assembly. The de cision was taken. There was no turning back despite second thoughts and regrets on the part of many, including Britain and the United States at the time. Indeed, there are still some Member States here who would like to turn the clock back and reverse history by invalidating the UN judgement on Jewish statehood. Having failed mili tarily, they are lobbying day and night in attempts to win votes to undo Israel politically. And these Member States are encouraged in this their sinister schemes against another Member State by the mighty Soviet Union which wields much influ ence in all UN organs including, of course, the Security Council. It is well, then, during this 25th anniversary *— when all of these States offer lip-service in high praise of the World Or- For expert advice on your Group Insurance 1.

Judging by their acts and deeds during the past quarter century—-and your correspond ent has in mind the majority of Members — few can exempt themselves from the transgressor category.

Let’s examine them: “The Purposes of the United Nations are: “1. To maintain international peace and security, and to that end: to take effective collective measures for the prevention and removal of threats to the peace, and for the suppression of acts of aggression or other breaches of the peace, and to bring about by peaceful means, and in con formity with the principles of justice and international law, adjustment or settlement of in ternational disputes or situations which might lead to a breach of the peace; “2. To develop friendly rela tions among nations based on respect for the principle of equal rights and self-determination of peoples, and to take other ap propriate measures to strengthen universal peace; “3. To achieve international cooperation in solving interna tional problems of an economic, social, cultural, or humanitar ian character, and in promoting and encouraging respect for hu man rights and for fundamen tal freedoms for all without dis tinction as to race, sex, lang uage, or religion; and, “4. To be a center for har monizing actions of nations in the attainment of these common ends.” Instead of offering mere lip- service during this 25th birth day of the UN, the guilty UN Member States might well re read their own Charter, but more especially the following contained in the Preamble: “And for these ends, to practice tol erance and live together in peace with one another as good neigh bors, and to unite our strength to maintain international peace and security ..." .s:«ipt.o« Ponce de Leon at mghinna TR. 6-0381 OPEN ALL NIGHT BNtimtAIN^GT - Need a ynfawbnwl bartender ar waiter for oatartetatac at homer Call Eddie Davie—*74- 1888.
