Conspiracy Under Spotlight
Bevin' stands unmasked in all his ugliness . . . His conspiracy
to smother Israel and slay the UN has been exposed . . And by none
other than his. own government .. . When Egypt felt the lash of
Israeli power he tried to come to the rescue of the land of the.
Pharaohs under an oppressive treaty which Cairo itself has been
trying to invalidate . . . And when Egyptian authorities began real-
izing there was a dagger behind Bevin's "friendly" hands, the granite-
headed British Foreign Minister decided to create an "incident"
as an excuse for British penetration into Egypt and ultimately into
Palestine.
Bevin has not yet exhausted his bag of tricks . . . His agents
are busy at Rhodes trying to persuade the Egyptians against agree-
ment with Israel on armistice terms . . . Nor will the UN Palestine
Conciliation Commission miss the impact of his treachery . . . It is:
no secret that he stopped a French Cabinet move to recognize Israel.

About People
Dr. Abba Hillel Silver might have found his way to Zionist
thinking independently . . . Yet it was his father, Rabbi Moshe
Silver, who died in Jerusalem, who influenced him in that direction.
. . . In his fine book,, "Bitter Herbs and Honey," David Schwartz
relates that when youthful Abba first began organizing the Dr. Herzl
Zion Club he met hostility among Orthodox Jewish elements . .
The authorities at the Yeshiva on the East Side where young Silver
studied considered Zionism' a challenge to the doctrine of the Mes-
sianic deliverance of the Jews . . . But Reb Moshe Silver, who was
a teacher at the Machsikei Talmud Torah and a man of considerable
scholarly attainments, was on the side of Abba . . . He gave him
advice and encouragement which ultimately led young Abba to
leadership of the Herzl Zion Club and later to leadership of Ameri-
can Zionism.
Marian Anderson, God's most gifted singer, owes her life and
voice to a Jewish hand .. . The surgeon who operated on her was
Dr. Rudolph Nissen, who also operated on Prof. Einstein . . . Miss
Anderson is a religious person and she surely must have given
thought to the artificial frontiers men create among themselves in
defiance of the Divine truth that all men are equal because they
were made in the image of God.
The late Willie Howard. was born William Lefkowitz . . . His
father was a famous cantor in Germany.
Yehudi Menuhin is again fiddling out of tune . . . His com-
ing to the defense.. of the German conductor Wilhelm Furt-
waengler can only serve to alienate his friends and musical
admirers . . . Yehudi must still remember how the Jewish DPs
in Germany reacted when he gave a concert there a year or so
ago . . . Surely it can be assumed that Hitler's victims were
more familiar with Furtwaengler's record than Yehudi .. . We
don't presume to judge Yehudi's artistry, but we believe he was
downright impudent when he said that Furtwaengler behaved
himself entirely as a good German in the best sense of the
word . . . Hasn't Yehudi read in the newspapers that all Ger-
mans claimed to be "good Germans" the minute Hitler was
toppled? . .. We would rather follow the lead of the Jew
Vladimir Horowitz and the Italian Arturo Toscanini, two of the
world's greatest artists, in thOcurrent Furtwaengler cont
roversy.

UN Post Loses
Vote for Shertok

Despite their high positions
in the Israeli government,
• Moshe Shertok and other
members of the Israeli delega- .
tion to the United Nations, will
be' unable to vote at the first
general election to be held
next month.
According to the new elec-
toral laW of Israel, anyone who
was out of the country when
the election census was taken
will be . unable to vote. The
UN delegates were absent
from Israel during the census.
The rule was made to avoid
confusion during the -continued
intake of new immigrants.
