the bitter Arab-Jcwlsh

; The literature of both Jews and
Mohammedans through the cen

Arabs and Jews still agree on
this point, it's probably the only

they are to succeed.
That puts the United Nations it
self on trial In a big way. It calls
upon It to demonstrate whether It
Is capable of settling a great inter
national issue which for thirty
years not only has failed tit respond
to British remedies but has grown
steadily worse.
I've been studying this volcanic
situation ever since its inception,
much of the time at close range.
and believe that psychologically it
deteriorated so much that the
Jews and Arabs probably never
j would accept any British decision,
aome observers hold that Britain
and America together might have
succeeded in settling the issue a
yeat ago, but even that possibility
no longer seems to exist.
Still, the position l.-n’t without
hope. If the United Nations can
evolve a program acceptable to
world opinion as represented In the
organization, then the Arabs and
Jews are more likely to accept it.
Indeed, they undoubtedly would
hesitate to go against world opln
ion
So far as England Is concerned,
•■•he hasn’t decided to relinquish the I
mandate Palestine and would- I
over
n't necessarily consider U. N. rec
ommendations as binding on her.
She isn’t saying in advance that she
will implement a U. N. program. As
a matter of fact she already has
mnde it clear that she would be un
able to furnish more troops of mon
ey for Palestine, and thus would be
unable to comply with any plana
which called on her for these things.
However, it is said :n well inform
ed U. N. circles that England would
accept a big majority decision by
the United Nations, even though
she might not accept the same de
cision on a close vote.
As the U. N. tackles this highly j
controversial issue there is at least
I
one favorable aspect. So far as the
peace organization is concerned, the
question is freSh. It isn’t, for In
stance, like the Greek problem
which already had produced a split
among the powers before it arose in
the U. N.
Of course, success must be pre
mised oil glM&foent among the Big
— America, Britain, Russia
France and China. And that may
not be too easy to achieve, since all
these countries, expect China, have
interests in the Levant. If it came
to the use of military force, this
would have to be provided by the
Big five, since the U. N. has none
of its own as yet, and a veto by one
of the great powersyyould stymie
the project.
The U. N. starts with a clean slate I
in trying to settle this Palestine dif- [

It's Not Too Lote
To Plant Gardens,
Home Agent States
Gardners of Spalding county had
better get busy because now is the
time to plant that garden to In
sure an adequate supply of vege
tables for the family, according to
Miss Martha Reid, home demon
stration agent.
A half acre garden will provide
the proper rotation of vegetables
and will enable Spalding county
families to maintain a continuous
and adequate supply of such vege
tables as beets, carrots, eggplants,
pepper, onions, okra, beans, peas,
tomatoes, asparagus and perenni
als. In addition to the home gar
den, a farm family of five needs a
truck patch of at least Jjvo acres to
grow sweet potatoes, tomatoes,
turnips, beans, peas, Irish potatoes
and corn, she says.
In transplanting plants in the
home garden, Miss Reid said, the
root system should be re-establish
ed quickly. The top or leaf surface
should be balanced with the re
duced root system. If water Is used,
Miss Reid asserted, two pounds of
nitrate of soda in 50 gallons of
water will prove profitable.
plants should be shaded cn the
south side with a wood shingle or
small brush, she said.
A supply of fresh vegetables
every month is important, Miss
Reid pointed out, and timely plant
ing will provide this. The fresh
vegetables contain many necessary
vitamins and minerals, the Spald
ing county home agent declared.
