HUNTER JO. 6-3115 ELKIN TRAVEL SERVICE Ease, Israel Issues In Presidential. Campaign The Middle East situation and Israel's. status have been injected in political debates. Highlighted by the differing views presented to the conven- tion of the Zionist Organization of America by Vice Presiden- tial candidates Nixon and Ke- fauver, the issue has been pick- ed up by others, and President Eisenhower himself is expected to comment on the issue. Last week, after a call on the President by Jacob K. Javits, candidate for the U. S. Senate in New York, White House spokesman James Hag- erty's announcement that the President would speak in New York the end of this month is interpreted as indicating that Mr. Eisenhower may touch on the Israel issue in that speech. A JTA report from Washing- ton states that President Eisen- hower has indicated he is "a little disturbed" by Saudi Ar- abia discrimination against U. S. Air Force personnel of Jew- ish faith, National Commander William Carmen of the Jewish War Veterans said after a talk with the President. _ Mr. Carmen said that the President thought that the JWV commander's idea of visiting U. S. military installations in the Middle East, including Sau- di Arabia, was a good one. The Defense Department has indi- cated to Mr. Carmen it will facilitate his trip but the State Department has not yet reveal- ed its view. The JWV leader told Mr. Eisenhower that he will report to him on conditions af- fecting U. S. military personnel in Saudi Arabia if he is per- mitted to make the visit. The President indicated he would look into the question of dis- crimination affecting U. S. per- sonnel in Saudi Arabia. Speaking in Los Angeles, Senator Kefauver urged that the U. S. give up its Air Force base in Dharhan, Saudi Ar- abia, rather than continue to acquiesce in an arrangement which bars Jewish service- men from being stationed there. Sen. Kefauver said that it has been known for some time that the Saudis had been able to keep American Jews from being stationed there under some "in- formal arrangement." He added, "I am surprised that the Presi- dent is now expressing concern and that something hasn't been done about it, because we passed a resolution in the United States Senate, - urging that there be negotiations per- mitting the entry of all our peo- ple, both in the service and civilians, without regard to race, creed or religion." Asked whether he would pre- fer, in view of his statements, that the base be given up, rath- er than continue the present arrangement, Kefauver said, "I think that anywhere where we can't have our own people, in keeping with our tradition and our own way that we treat our people without regard to their race or religion, that I would rather not have that base than to agree to that kind of condi- tion." In her address in Detroit, Oct. 4, Mrs. Eleanor Roose- velt said: "If we had-protest- ed strongly when Egypt de- nied passage to two Israel ships, we would have halted the development of present tensions." The JTA reports from Wash- ington that the position of the American Zionist Committee for Public Affairs is that the major goal in the current politi- cal campaign is to strengthen American policy in the 'Near East by winning support for a vigorous program for Israel from the candidates of both par- ties. The AZCPA stressed the tra- ditional non-partisan attitude of the Zionist movement and ex- pressed satisfaction over Re- publican and Democratic agree- ments on Israel's independence as stated in their party plat- forms. The committee empha- sized that both platforms should be emphasized, that there should be thorough discussion of the issues and candidates should be, asked to affirm support of their party declarations. Last week, the Michigan Fair. Election Practices Com- mission, appointed by Gover- nor Williams with the con- currence of both political parties, declared that it "seeks to insure that the election campaign now in process be free* of all racial and religious bigotry. Vigorous and hard- hitting though this periodic political contest be, it must not stoop to the un-American level of any type of attack based on the faith, color or ethnic origin of one's politi- cal opponents. The Commis- sion will publicly denounce and censure every violation of this basic American prin- ciple." The Rt. Rev. Richard S. Em- rich is chairman of the com- mission, membership in which is held by Rabbi Morris Adler, Samuel J. Rhodes ' and repre- sentatives of churches, labor and women's groups. Rabbi Eugene G. Gottesman of the Jewish Educational Cen- ter, Montebello, Calif., last week addressed a letter to Vice Presi- dent Richard Nixon deploring the "untruth" of charges that the Vice President is anti-Sem- itic. He wrote that as the Rabbi "of your own community am here to acquaint my -fellow Jews and fellow Americans of that fact." He appealed against unfair smears in the campaign. In an address to the ZOA convention in Washington, on the eve of his election to the ZOA presidency, Dr. Emanuel Neumann emphasized the nonpartisan position of the Zionist movement, but he took occasion to say that the U. S. Government's Middle East policy had "not only been a failure, but there were disquieting signs that the les- son has not yet been learned and no genuine change of policy has taken place." Dr. Neumann appealed to President Eisenhower, the Lib- erator of Europe, to "stave off a 'Middle East Munich.' " In a radio address over Sta- tion WRCA, New York, Oct. 7, Bernard Katzen, consultant to the Republican National Com- mittee, not only denied that Secretary of State Dulles was unfriendly to Israel, but defend- ed the present Administration as having been most helpful to the Jewish State. He praised Secretary Dulles as a dedicated American and quoted from his statements to indicate that he stood for the preservation of Israel. Introduce New Maytag Automatic `Highlander' Addition to its laundry line of a new budget-priced auto- matic washing machine with several new features was an- nouneed by the Maytag Com- pany, at a special showing at the Park Shelton Hotel. Called the "Highlander," the new washer was developed to appeal to the demands of bud- get-conscious young Americans —without sacrificing quality found on top-of-the-line mod- els. Exclusive Maytag engineer- ing innovations - make a lower cost possible, officials said. Engineers have applied the familiar engineering principle of helical drive to the ,washer, greatly simplifying the drive mechanism and reducing the number of moving parts. Used in combination with the heli- cal drive is a reversible motor that provides a simple, trouble- free system for converting power into the necessary wash- ing actions.
