Outbids Jewish Lives
NEW YORK (JPS) — Recent
articles by leading American
journalists of all sections of the
American press, from the mili-
tant progressive to the conserVa-
tive, show concurrence on the
following points: that there is a
relation between the deferment
of the Jewish Commonwealth
resolutions and the Saudi Arab-
ian oil deal; that the oil deal
must be investigated and given
an airing, and that the rescue of
Jewish lives must, in faithful-
ness to American tradition, be
given priority over oil.
