was hottest for creation of a
United Nations bloc out of those
delegates here who represent
Bandung conferees. Willy-nilly,

India, Burma and the Philippines
became members of that bloc. All
three of these countries have
been shamefaced about their fail-
ure to keep anti-Israel resolu-
tions from the floor of the Ban-
dung Conference. Furthermore,
India and Burma had fought in-

Jewish State had three members
in the bloc who would not like,
openly at d e a s t, to vote any
anti-Israel action. And it is well
known here that one of the Arab I 4801 WOODWARD
