We have particularly in mind his most recent utterance on Jerusalem and the transfer thereto of the Israeli Foreign Minis- try. The gentleman has many burdenS on. his shoulders these days and it is quite possible therefore that he has forgotten many of the things he heard and saw during his visit tp But how could he have forgotten so basic and important an issue as the transfer of the Foreign Ministry when in fact he had been advised about it by none other than the Israeli government it- self? A cautious diplomat, Dulles said the only knowledge the State Department had of the contemplated move came from "ru- mors" reaching the American Embassy in Israel. If he believes what he said, he will have to redefine the word "rumor." Are newspaper reports rumors? Are statements by the Foreign Min- ister of Israel rumors? Is a decision by a government cabinet a rumor when it has been fully publicized? We realize Mr. Dulles these days may be too busy to read newspapers. But he wasn't that busy in May of 1952 when Israel announced that the trans- fer of the seat of government and of the Foreign Ministry would be effected as soon as the government offices in Jerusalem were constructed. And had he examined his own State Department files he would have discovered that the moving of the Israeli min- istries to Jerusalem started at the end of 1949 in fact. What Mr. Dulles is seemingly trying to do is to foist a solution that js neither satisfactory to Israel nor the Arab states. Is that his concept of neutrality? to July 12 $45.

President Eisenhower's appointment of Governor Byrnes to the UN is a baffling and grievous challenge to man's striving for equality within the national and international pattern. How can a gentleman who has consistently advocated and practiced racial inequality and segregation be a spokesman for the ideals of American democracy on the international rostrum? The nam- ing of Byrnes is mockery of our subscription to the UN Charter and its pledge to take joint and . separate action for the achieve- ment of universal respect for, and observation of human rights and fundamental freedoms for all without distinction as to race, sex, language or religion. The presence of Byrnes in the UN will not only impair our prestige and moral leadership among the nations of the world, but may also compel many of them to look in other, directions for leadership. Arab League Urges Turkey to Quit Israel ISTANBUL, (JTA)—The Arab League has urged Turkey to cut off its rapidly expanding trade with Israel. The reports stated that the Lebanese Foreign Ministry had approached the Turkish envoy in Beirut and, in the name of the Arab League, declared that the volume of trade between Turkey and Israel is "displeas- ing the Arab states." The Turkish envoy was told that the port of Alexandretta, in Southeastern Turkey, has be- become a center for the export of large quantities of foodstuffs to Israel. Top officials • in the Turkish Trade Ministry have expressed the opinion that the Arab dip- lomatic move would have no effect on Israel-Turkish rela- tions. Turkey is now exporting large quantities of grain to Is- rael, and is receiving Israeli cars, chemicals, drugs and ce- ment. Zion Begins Cargo Service To South and East Africa TEL AVIV, (JTA)—The Zim Navigation Company, Israel's largest shipping firm, has begun regular cargo service from the new state to South and East Africa to import wood for Isra- el's plywood factories. A company announcement said that the service is saving Israel considerable sums of fore- ign currency which would be spent in Europe and other areas for wood for the factories. The same wood is used to manufac- ture crates for citrus fruit prod- ucts.
