High-Powered Arab Propaganda Get Life Imprisonment PARIS, (JTA)—Two French- Confusing Congress on Israel - men French Gestapo Aides By MILTON FRIEDMAN (Copyright, 1950, Jewish Telegraphic Agency, Inc.) WASHINGTON—During recent weeks Zionists have found a growing challenge in Washing- „ ton as an intense Arab propa- ganda campaign begins to pay off. While a number of distin- guished members of Congress have asked Secretary of State Dean Acheson to review his at- titua toward the Near East arms race, many other legisla- tors lack a full understanding of the situation. Some seemed to have the false impression that Israel has moved into Moscow's orbit; others asked why. Israel won't respect the United Nations on the internationalization of Jerusalem; and there were yet others who blamed Israel for the fate of the Arab refugees. The Arab propaganda ma- chine is riding. up Capitol Hill in high gear.- Everywhere' one finds distortion and doubt im- planted in the minds of Con- gressmen and- government offi- cials by skilled American propa- gandists paid by the Arabs. is tranquil . . . an analysis of information available to the de- partment indicates that no party to the Palestine dispute is mak- ing serious preparations to re- n e w hostilities." Meanwhile, more Nazi Luftwaffe veterans arrived in Cairo and Baghdad to fly the new British jet planes. Egypt's new naval craft, includ- ing submarines, held maneuvers off the Gaza strip. And Effendi Issa Sabbagh, an Arab propagandist who has long despised the Zionist movement, daily broadcasts the proper slant on things to the Arab states over the "Voice of America." The "Voice" is sponsored by the State De- partment. Sabbagh, a follow- er of the Mufti of Jerusalem, is on the U. S. payroll. It seems in Washington that American Zionists would not be able to relax for some time. Tel Aviv Police Evict Demonstrators from Agency Pro-Israel Sentiment Rare Those Congressmen who spoke up for Israel, in connection with the arms affair all seem to rep- resent districts which include large Zionist groups. Outside of the Jewish representatives who usually advance Israel's cause, those who sounded - off were all from New England. Southern- ers, Westerners, and many mid- western Republicans either ex- pressed disinterest in the situ- ation or asked sharp questions which indicated bias. Rep. James E. Van Zandt, a Pennsylvania Republican, openly advocated that the U. S. arm Egypt and criticized the Zionist "pressure group.” Van Zandt's constitu- ency, around Altoona, is largely' Catholic. He Was three times national commander-in-chief of the Veterans of Foreign Wars. At least one top-flight pub- lic relations firm, located in the National Press Building, daily fills the mails with pro- Arab publicity. The mail sacks are , heavy between the Arab embassies and tlot offices of the Holyland Emergency Liai- son Program (H.E.L.P.). From these and other pressure points there is an endless stream of anti-Israel propa- ganda flooding into Congres- sional mailboxes. A n d , as many know, J e wish anti- Zionists are the source of some of the most harmful calumny. Many Zioniits, it seems, are bewildered by the Near Eastern arms race. Mis-understanding arose from a State Department announcement that Israel has received more American arms than any Arab state. The truth is that, while Israel has been getting a carefully-controlled trickle of airplane parts and other material, this aid has been .insignificant compared to the deluge of heavy munitions poured into the Arab states by Great Britain and other West- ern European powers. Why should the Arabs pay trans-Atlantic freight charges when they can get the same munitions directly from Brit- ain and other. European coun- tries which ape supplied by the U. S. under the Atlantic pact? Israel's finances, already badly depleted by the development of the country and absorption of the continuous flow of arrivals, suffered added strain from the expensive arms race. While the heavily-laden mu- nitions ships ploughed through the Mediterranean, the State Department said ...
