In his report, prepared in con- lection with the Columbia Uni- 7ersity Program of Training in nternational Administration, he oints out that these agents `should, if possible, be natives If the countries in which they perate, and should be up-to- ► late on latest farm methods. Schonfeld, in urging govern- ent authorities to recognize the ,pecial religious requirements of newish ,groups, states that `UNRRA, should supply meats n-epared in accordance with rewish dietary laws, in propor- ion to the size of the Jewish >opulation cared for." 1)ee The document, which has just n published by the Ameri- an Chapter, Religious Emerg- clEOD REPUBLICAN . TO CONGRESS IN THE 13th DISTRICT Because... He is an Outstanding defender of all lust causes ... la In An Account of An Air-Borne Traveler k Review of Noel F. Busch's "My Unconsidered Judgment" Humans have a tendency to >ecome alarmed at insults flung t them openly. We spare no ► !ffort to retort vociferously and protect such treatment. How- ver, we frequently fail even to ake cognizance of subtler forms f affrontery, and thus they re- ain unanswered and unabated, hereby becoming a potential ource of danger. Jews, too, ust plead guilty of this short- .omin g. Very properly tucked away ong the various chapters hich constitute "My Unconsid- ?red Jugment" by Noel F. 3usch, (Houghton Mifflin Co., Boston) is one devoted to ex- tolling the virtues of Abdul Aziz :bn Saud, King of Saudi Arabia. le is portrayed as the magnani- nous father of his people, soli- itous of their well-being and .ver prepared to respond to the most inconsequential call of dis- tress. Ibn Saud evolves as a ;aintly soul who is credited with sagacity and foresight for having preserved a "segment of time [thelf". The devastation and neglect, the exploitation and "dis- egard for the lot of the poor, ;uddenly are rendered attributes, Eor they have preserved for us this little remnant of quaint antiquity. `Benevolent Neutrality' Ibn Saud is even lauded for his `'benevolent neutrality". T h e Allies should, of course, be eter- nally grateful that he did not loin with the Axis. After all, he had rio obligation, moral or oth- erwise. Mr. Busch continues to en- lighten us as to Ibn Saud's prob- lems and reduces them to the following: (1) a federation or at least a custom's union of all mw Arab countries, and (2) the Jews He is one of the pioneer Christian friends of Zionism ... He was the first to protest against indignities heaped upon Jews , . He has pledged himself, if re-elected to Congress on Nov. 7, to introduce, on the first convening day, the following House Concurrent Resolution: MOSES SCHONFELD ency Council of the Chief Rabbi of the British Empire, 55 Leon- ard St., New York, investigates the causes of malnutrition, pre- sents a detailed account of food conditions in war-torn Europe. Proposing suitable diets for liberated areas, it outlines methods of operation for relief workers, embarking on rehabili- tation projects overseas. in Palestine. The author is kind enough to elaborate on the lat- ter problem. He relates that the king like most Arabs is "pro- foundly unsympathetic to the idea of entertaining more Jews in Palestine". Our good friend Mr. Busch has merely transmitted to us the sentiment of the Arab world with no negative comment on his. part and without affording the Jews the opportunity of re- buttal. Thus in a "gentlemanly manner" the seeds of anti-Zion- ism are sowed and nurtured. The author has made no spurious remarks; he emerges with clean hands. No Negative Comment We Jews have been wronged, but only by innuendo; and so, nary a voice has been raised in protest. "My Unconsidered Jug- gement" continues to be read, digested and assimilated with not a contrary thought to dis- turb the process. The book is composed of a very pleasantly written series of articles describing Mr. Busch's experiences on a journey from New York back to New York via Buenos Aires, Capetown, Cairo, Riad, Tunis, London and Dublin. His means of portrayal is primarily that of the biograph- ical sketch and utilizes the characters of Smuts, Ibn Saud, Tedder, Eden, Jack Nugent and others as his subjects. Possesed of a most readable style enhanced by a true gift of humor, Busch has created a book which, if accurate, might have been termed a masterful work. Unfortunately, as the title sug- gests, the author did not devote too much time and thought to the testing and sifting of his ma- terial for accuracy and precision. Mr. Busch in his introduction asserts that scenes witnessed dur- ing pauses in air travel have "in retrospect somewhat the charac- ter of illusion". "My Unconsid- ered Judgement" is very defin- itely the account of an air-borne traveler. -- .—G. G . Norsk NOM, \NW 'gala. VII, 'IOW 'mak Nolo. VIIII0010, 79th Congress 1st Session H. Con. Res. No. IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES I January , 1945 Be it resolved, etc. I I I I That if is the sense of the Congress of the United States that the denial of essential human rights and political rights to Jewish and other minority groups and individuals is employed for the purpose of insti- gating wars between nations. That to diminish said causes for war and to promote iustice and human welfare throughout the world, certain rights should be guaranteed by the most binding authority of law. Therefore, it shall be the policy of the United States of America to cooperate with all other nations to the fullest extent, to the end that there shall be established and maintained a Bill of Rights embodied in a permanent law of the several political subdivisions of the world. Among the rights which should constitute the minimum of the Bill of Rights are: Life, Liberty, Freedom of Speech and Assembly, Freedom of Religion, Due Process of Law, Political Equality, Freedom of the Press, the Right to Petition to Lawful Authority for Redress of Griev- ances and Freedom of Education.
