Reports From
State of Israel

Jewish News Art Editor

sponsibility for either one of
the two.
"Jerusalem fell into siege
and famine. Its population un-
derwent a martyrdom • un-
known in post-biblical times,
while the international eom-
anunity looked on helpless, and
inert. Men, women and chil-
dren fell by the hundreds,
both in the city's defense and
in its relief. At critical mo-
ments both its water and food.
supplies were cut off with no
hope of replenishment.
"If this situation had en-
dured for but a matter of
days, there would have over-
taken every living Jew in Jeru-
salem an anihilation more to- ..
tal and coinplete than the
most effective and devastat-
ing bombardment. can ever in-
flict. Salvation came from one
quarter alone. The State of
Israel, struggling against dire
odds for very survival itself,
girded all its strength to throw
a lifeline to the belea.gured
city, reopening its communi-
cation and - saving -it from
dreadful strangulation,"
i
Underground Passages
Those in Israel who had to
use underground passages to
reach the Promised Land; those
who suffered in concentration.
camps before coming here, find .
added consolation in Evan's fol-
lowing declaration with refer-
ence tg, the UN Commission's
attempt to force a solution for
Jerusalem without consent of
the parties involved:
"This proceduarl disregard
of the opinion of the authori-
ties .. and population directly
concerned is unfortunately re -
fleeted in the substantive pro-
posals themselves. The 'plan set
up regans of government
though Jerusalem had no
courts; it makes detailed ar-
rangonents for the control 'Of
public services as though Jeru-
salem were now living in . ant
archy; it replaces Indepen-
dent institutions resting
consent with new institutions
having no roots' in the coun-
try and no • duty of response
to demetratic proeesses. •
"Not one of these administra-
tive councils is necessary for
the protection of Holy Places;
not one of these Courts has du-
ties essentially related to the
religions associations of the
city.
Political Conoscioais
"Moreover, by dispensing
with any effort to reach con-
saga sent, the Commission some-
times confides sharply with the
devout pelitical and religious
conscience of the population.
Thus, for example, we have a
proposal in Artible 5 whereby
Jews might be forbidden to
take up residence in Journal-
ism on. the grounds of being
Jews.
"My government knows this
General Assembly too well to
believe there is a chance of
such a proposal being adop-
ted, and we have no real feel-
of alarm. We know that this
organization cannot be persu-
aded to put up a notice "NO
MORE JEWS WANTED" at
the gates of the Holy City
which was made illustrious in
hisory through the spiritual
experiences of thetleivish peo-
ple, where from there branch-
ed off the great streams of
Christianity and Islam."
