NE DAV' 'LAST WEEK the
first Minister to the United
States front Saudi Arabia,
Assd al Faqih, donned ceremonial
g orb and appeared at the White
H o use for the presentation of his
letters of credence to the Presi-
dent. Under his flowing black robe,
However, he wore a business suit
as western in style as one of
Harry Truman's double breasted
models. This blending of the two
costumes seems to express, in
sartorial terms, FaqiIt's rfie as
symbol of the new relation be-
tween the two countries.
To President Truman he de-
scribes the Arabs as "politically
divided," but ''constantly working,
both individually and collectively,
for humanity. They constantly en-
deavour," he said. "to defend
peace, having no greater aim than
the preservation of their liberty
and integrity, for which they are
ready to sacrifice everything."
Explaining the Arab League, he
set forth its main aim-"to coop-
erate fully in safeguarding the
world's stability and security.
Aside from cooperating in what
Interests the Arab states alone,"
he said, "the Arab League aims to
serve humanity.
"As always in the past," said
Faciih, "His Majesty's Govern-
ment continues to defend and to
exert itself for the affairs and
rights of the Arabs at large."
The new Minister from Saudi
Arabia has had only one meeting
with Secretary of State Byrnes at
which they "talked in a friendly
manner about the friendly relations
between the two countries" and
expressed hope that such coop-
eration would continue. As yet,
according to Arabian sources, no
mention of Arab affairs, the oil
question, or the Palest* question
has crept in to cause any kind of
ripples on the diplomatic surface.
His Majesty's Government will
"continue to defend and to exert
itself" in a suite of the Shore-
ham, one of Washington's swank
hotels, until a permanent building
can be found to house the Saudi
Arabian delegation. The housing
shortage is no respeetnr of dele-
gations, it seems.
Although Asad at Faqih is the
first minister to the United States
from Saudi Arabia, other Arab
states have had representation
here for some time. The Egyptian
Legation in 1945. Iran, an Arab
state although not in the Arab
Legation was established in 1924,
The Royal Iraqi Legation in 1942
ann the Syrian Legation in 1945.
Ir en, an Arab state, although
not in the Arab League, has had
diplomatic representation here for
over 80 years. In 1945 her legation
was raised to embassy rank. Our
own representation in Saudi Ara-
bia dates from 1942.
The United States minister to
Saudi Arabia, Col. William A. Ed-
dy. is an Arabic speaking Marine
Corps colonel and ex-college presi-
dent. who was born in Sidon,
Syria, to American missionaries of
New England ancestry. Before be-
coming president of Hobart Col-
lege, Geneva, New York, he was
Professor of English at Dart-
mouth College for eight years and
Chairman of the Department of
English at the American Univer-
sity at Cairo for five. A captain
in the first World War, Eddy en-
tered World War II as a major.
He served as Naval Attache with
0
Council to Tell
Of Cleveland

E
S
the American Legation in Cairo
from 1941 until earls in 1942 when
he was sent to Tangier. In Sep-
tember of 1944, now a Colonel, Ed-
dy was appointed Minister to
Saudi Arabia and has served that
post ever since. According to
those in a position to know, Col.
Eddy has an intimate knowledge
of all parts of the Middle East,
speaks Arabic so well -that he
"practically thinks in it," and has
established very friendly relations
with the Arabs.
The fact that the largest and
most powerful Arab state has sent
her diplomatic representative to
this country cannot fail to stren-
gthen the Arab position here. The
Government of Saudi Arabia is
now in a position to make a di-
rect appeal to the sympathy of the
American people. And the Arab
League, now that five out of its
seven states have representation
here, seems to be taking on a
political personality of its own.

Killing of
Jews in Poland
Booth, Hiteglt
By ARON HERMAN

Join Fund Staff
WARSAW (JTA) — Two Jew-
Protest
ish demonstrations, one in Cra-
cow and the other in Lublin,
were held this week at funerals of
Jews killed by fascists operating
against the Government and con-
ducting anti-Jewish terror all over
the country.
More than 7,400 Jews participat-
ed in the Cracow funeral of four
orthodox Jewish passengers who
were dragged from a bus and tor-
tured and killed. The bus was on
the Lodz-Cracow road. The Jews
were enroute to Cracow to attend
a Mizrachi conference, which was
scheduled to open there with the
participation of Heshl Farbstein,
world Mizrachi leader, who had
come to Poland front Palestine
for the conference.
The continued murder of Jews
by organized fascist bands Is
keeping the Jeffs throughout Po-
land in constant fear for their
lives. There is no doubt here that
the fascist groups who are con-
ducting the anti-Jewish terror are
being financed by Polish elements
from abroad interested in under-
mining the present Government,
which is doing its utmost to curb
anti-Jewish activities, but which
has not succeeded in suppressing
the terrorists.

In a letter to the principal

ators, and news editors, the Non-
Sectarian Anti-Nazi League re-
cently characterized use of such
phrases as "Jewish terrorists" in
connection with news reporting of
current disturbances in Palestine
as inaccurate and Inflammatory
language, which does not correct-
ly reflect the facts of events in
the Near East, and which tends
to stir up unnecessary tension
and antipathy between racial and
religious groups in the United
States.
