Prof. Einstein, at 70, Hailed as Symbol of Peace

By PHINEAS J. BIRON
THE MESSAGES of congratulation Prof.
Albert Einstein received on his seventieth birth-
day was a telegram signed by the two outstanding play-
wrights in America, Arthur Miller, author of the
"Death of a Salesman," and Clifford
Odets whose most recent play "The
Big Knife" is capturing Broadway.
The wire greeted Einstein. "as the
symbol of peace and the rallying in-
apiration for those who strive to
pi event a third world war."
Both Miller and Odets are mem-
bens of the American Committee of
Jewish Writers, Artists and Scien-
tists of which Albert Einstein is the
honorary president since its incep-
tion.

THE EVER YOUNG Stephen S. Wise, who last
week celebrated Lis 75th birthday, proved the other
day that he is still the most courageous advocate of
freedom of the pulpit.
In this atmosphere of hysteria, when men of the
church dare not oppose the edicts of big business, Wise
made an unequivocal statement, supporting the two
Christian ministers, Mellish, father and son, who are

under fire, because the son is the chairman of the Na-
tional Council of American-Soviet Friendship.
Wise. when a young man, refused the invitation of
the wealthy Temple Emanuel of New York, rejecting
the authority of the trustees of the Temple, who were
used to control their Rabbis. The spiritual leadership
of Stephen S. Wise, should serve as an inspiration to
our younger Rabbis, who are too silent in these tur-
bulent days.

THERE ARE MORE than rumors to the effect that
David Wahl, the executive director of the former
Americans for Hug.,nah, is slated for the position of
administrative head of the Zionist Progressive Com-
mittee, the Lipsky-Wise group that intends to make
a fight for the leadership of the Zionist Organization.
Morris Margulies, one-time secretary of the ZOA,
who until now carried the responsibility of the com-
mittee, is said to he tired and eager to withdraw. Wahl
is able, efficient and imaginative. He should prove a
shot in the arm of the rather lethargic, drifting oppo-
sition.
Without Montor's UJA victory, the Progressive
committee would hardly be visible on the Zionist map.

OFF THE RECORD

Fear Bevin May Seek
to Bar Israel at UN

By NATHAN ZIPRIN

talks,
He is to visit Washington next

month. Should no settlement be
reached by then he will try to
sell Secretary of State Acheson
a number of his ideas on the
Palestine question.
Don't be surprised if he makes
a dramatic appearance before
the General Assembly in a plea
against Israel's admission to the
UN. Calm advisor's have urged
him against such a move. But
Bevin is known to follow only
Bevin's advice.
He still hopes to torpedo the
current Rhodes talks. Resump-
tion of fighting, he believes,
would give him an opening to
have the UN reconsider its own
settlement of the issue.

REGRETS DEPARTURE
HE IS A pipedreamei with all
the habits of that clan. His new
line is that it was a mistake of

Britain to have yielded the man-
date and gotten out of Palestine.
He has told American diplo-
mats in London that there were
certain• military miscalculations
when the British cabinet decided
to throw the Palestine baby into
the laps of the UN.
The miscalculations are evi-
dent. He and his anti-Jewish
clique believed Arab might
would solve the problem before
the UN could reach a decision.
Bevin still cannot see Israel as a
fact and is looking for pretexts
to embarrass and harass the new
State. His ambition is to thwart
establishment of friendly rela-
tions between Israel and the
neighboring Arab states.
The "war scare" his foreign
office created had one purpose, to
create confusion and restore
strain.

Dorothy Thompson is peeved and
has lost all her interest in the Jewish State. She no
longer cares whether Jewish organizations book her
for speeches.... Ted Thackrey, editor of the New York
Post, is packing his bags for a trip to Israel. Which re-
minds us that the prospects for the tourist season this
summer in Israel are exceedingly bright. American
business is very much interested in trade with Israel.
One of America's best selling authors is leaving for
Israel in May to p"oduce and direct a full length movie
feature....

The world Zionist congress, this summer will be an
anti-climax since it will have no say on'state matters
in Israel. The next big ZioniA move in the U. S., will
be a national campaign for Chalutzim to Israel,

The oil interest:- in America are making overtures
to the Jewish State and are ready to spend big money
to cement friendship between Israel and Saudi Arabia.

Prof. Einstein has definitely refused an invitation
from the Israeli government to settle in Israel.... The
Ilahimah in Israel is on the downgrade and badly in
need of a new repertioy.... Now that the food cam-
paign for Israel is about to close in this country, the
Bnai Brith is looking for a new cause to continue its
fund raising activities.
