WASHINGTON (NEA)
Much of the wreckage of the war in the Middle East will
not be found on the Sinai desert and other battlefields. The
reputations of men and groups and nations suffered griev
ously.
At the critical turns, before and during the conflict, where
were Britain, West Germany, France and Italy, the fabled
lands of a great continent?
They were being largely ignored—penalty both for their
varying degrees of post-World War II political impotence and
for the self-comforting isolationism they developed to match
their impotence. When you are grossly indifferent to the
world’s problems, they get handled without you.
German leaders, oddly enough, were the only ones candid
enough to make open comment over being left in the wings.
Consider next the tragic Arabs. They strive desperately to
cast away a fair measure of genuine official good will in the
West, at the same time dissipating sympathy for even their
strongest causes, like the million or more refugees left home
less for 20 years.
They were recklessly willing to drag the great powers into
the war, talk now of digging their own already half-dug
economic graves, plan their next hate campaign against Israel.
Then there is poor India, never so overburdened by famine
and chaos that it cannot find time to lecture the world on its
moral duties. India’s leader, Mrs. Indira Gandhi professes to
see in the anti-Semitic hatreds and vaulting ambitions of
Egypt s Nasser .a kind of wave of the future.
Add to the wreckage the leaders in some black African
lands, who evidently believe that nothing is to be deemed a
crime which by any stretch can be labeled “revolutionary ”
In their myopic world, Nasser is the Arab crusader, tilting
against colonial giants. Tiny Israel must, then, be a sort of
rentagon-made “McNamara cocktail.”
One can hardly blame the Israelis for resenting assignment
selves diminutive role in a war they plainly won by them-
On the other hand, the wreckage inelndes many Ameri

PROPOSAL FLOPS 1
SPENNYMOOR, Ireland
(UPD—A move to launch a
“sleep apart” campaign for
husbands and wives collapsed
Tuesday despite pleas by a
health and safety conscious
town councilman.
Councilman Ernest Brauer,
58, suggested married couples
use single beds only, a move he
said would enable workmen to
rest easier and prevent the
passing on a cold.
“We live in an age of
smokeless zones, central heat
ing and better housing,” said
Brauer, “but we. keep that
symbol of sickness, the double
bed.”

cutive secretary to George T.
