That's the theory. What are the Schiller, Alfred Shevin, Matthew

Are Palestine's 600,000 Jews, Sussman and Joseph Ziff.
The new president has prom-

cerned in the solution of the
-Palestine issue are the 250,000
Jews in the DP camps. Which
government. among the 55 UN
members represents them?
Romania's 380,000 Jews and
Hungary's 180,000 Jews certainly
are not represented, because
neither of those countries is a
member of the UN.
We thus have close to 1,500,000
Jews who have a personal, vital
interest in Palestine, whom no
government even claims to rep-
resent.
Result? We are witnessing the
indecent spectacle of an issue
being debated in the Parliament
of Man, with two of the three in-
terested parties having a field
day, while the third is not even
allowed to enter the charmed
precincts. This is, the political
morality of the One World in
the year 1947.
