Beware of Pakistan

Chaudbry KhaliqUazamman, president of the All-Pakistan
Moslem League, is about to tour Iran, Iraq, Lebanon, Turkey,
Egypt and "Saudi Arabia . . . He wants to win over all those coun-
tries to the idea of an "Islamic Bloc" . . . An economic conference
of Moslem nations is planned for November in Karachi . • . Pakis-
tan is numerically and potentially the most powerful Moslem.
Country . . . A new situation is bound to develop if Pakistan gains
economic and political strength and becomes a rallying center of
a Mohammedan bloc . . . Pakistan's attitude toward the State of
Israel may become one of the crucial developments of the future
.. . For a long time consistent efforts have been made by British
and Arab agitators in Pakistan to foment anti-Israel bias.

Sticky Palms

-

An American who recently returned here from an extended
trip to Israel, in his analysis of conditions in the new state, laid
particular emphasis of the fact that the governinent of Israel is
free of corruption . . . This may not mean much td the average
American . . . However, it is a unique phenomenon in the Middle
East, where all states are known for their corruption . . Presi-
dents, Prime Ministers and Cabinet members in the Arab states
have "sticky palms" . . . They can almost invariably be had for a
price . . . Whenever a political upheaval takes place in one of
those countries the first question invariably asked is who—mean-
ing whose money—is behind it.
The Israel Premier Ben Gurion receives a salary of 75 pounds
a month . . With tax deductions of 35 pounds a month he has
left only 40 pounds or $420.00 monthly . . . He lives in the same
simple abode, as he did prior to his premiership . . . When on one
of the Jewish holidays he entertained several guests at dinner,
