QUESTION: Do you think Is-
rael should permit the 300,000
Palestinian Arabs who fled
during the fighting to return
to Israel?

BEN COLUMBUS, 2024 Phila-
delphia avenue west, insurance
agent.
I think it would be foolish
for Israel to permit the Arab
refugees to return at this time.
The war is
still on in Pal-
estine, and Is-
rael cannot af-
ford to trust a
single A r a b.
There un-
doubted 1 y
would be some
fifth columnists
among the
300,000 r e f o-
gees. Also, the
enemy Arab states could send in
saboteurs in the guise of refu-
gees.
The return of so many Arabs
would also- cause a severe finan-
eial drain on Israel.

I believe that Israel should
permit the Arabs to return but
over an extended period and
after a careful screening process.
Actually,
these Arabs
are natives of
Israel and, as
s u c h, should
not be kept
out of their
country indefi-
nitely.
However, Is-
rael must make
certain that
only Palestin-
ian Arabs come in. These peo-
ple haven't been particularly un-
friendly to the Jews.
The whole trouble between
the two peoples was incited by
the British who kept pushing
the Arabs on.

Dan Is a Victim
of Broken Home;
Can You Help?

Broken homes are becoming
so commonplace a news item
that it is sometimes forgotten
that each item may represent
the deep, personal tragedy of a
child whose security was de-
stroyed when his parents parted.
That's how it has been with Dan.
Dan is a 12-year-old whose
mother is unable to give him
much attention because she has
to work long hours to support
herself and her son.
The children's department of
the Jewish Social Sorvice Bureau
is seeking a foster home for
Dan where he can live a healthy
and happy life with foster par-
ents who will give him guid-
ance and affection.
Dan is able to get along well
with other boys, but right now
he is confused because even a
comparatively big boy of 12
finds it hard to keep a normal
outlook without the assurance
that he has a place to come

BELLA SMITH, 2015 Blaine ave-
nue, Central High student.
In order to permit the 300,000
Arab refugees to return, Israel
would have to make certain
that they wouldn't resort to fifth
Column activ-
ities.
Since this is
impossible, i t
would be bet-
ter to keep
them out. Be-
cause the
Arabs are at
war with Is-
rael, few o f
them can be
ealled friends
of the Jews.
The Jews of Israel are too
busy defending their country
from outsiders without having
to keep their eyes on an addi-
tional 300,000 Arabs within their
territory.
