On the Record

Thinking Aloud . . .
Sulzberger in one of his recent columns in the New York
Times quotes a close friend of Secretary of State Dulles as having
observed privately that the "Secretary had absolutely no policy
in the Middle East prior to the Suez invasion," thus confirming
what has been suspected and said all along. However, it would
appear from the Secretary's secret testimony that he had at least
one policy close to his heart—opposition to British and French
military efforts to overthrow Nasser. Dulles, evidently, has
learned little even from most recent history. Had Hitler been
stopped in his tracks on time ;the catastrophic second world war
might have been avoided. If war erupts in the Middle East, a
possibility Washington now seems to concede, the tragic script
will be the same—a failure to lock the barn before the horse
has been stolen. It is apparent even to the naked eye that what
Nasser is striving for is not only the destruction of Israel and
some of the neighboring Arab states • but absolute domination
of the entire area and its subjugation to ruthless dictatorship.

Bon Mots . . .
When Mordecai Kidron, Israeli delegate to the UN, was
interviewed recently on a television program, he was asked
whether Israel did not move slowly in getting out of • the Sinai.
Replying, Mr. Kidron said he thought the evacuation was pro-
ceeding rather at a fairly fast pace considering the fact that it
took the Israelis of old some 40 years to negotiate the exit
from Egypt.
Note on a Conference . .
Oil and words will no doubt be gushing copiously where
Ike meets the King of gaudia Arabia. There is no intention here
to counsel the President, but we do hope Mr. Eisenhower will
find the semantic medium of conveying to the monarch American
abhorrence of his country's practice of closing doors to Americans
of the Jewish faith. The President would be only stating .a
cardinal American tenet if he told the King that we here have
no second class citizens.
Hungarian Communists Charge Jews
Covered Up Anti-Semitism in Revolt
LONDON (JTA) — The Corn-
munist government of Hungary
charged the Jewish Community
of Budapest with "doing noth-
ing to inform the • Hungarian
people and the world" about the
"anti-Semitic features" of . the
recent uprising against the re-
gime.
The charge was made by
Gyoergy Marosan, Hungarian
Minister of State, according to
information reaching the World
Jewish Congress- here, at a press
conference at which he said that
the "counter-revolutionary ac-
tivities" in Hungary had been

EILAT, (JTA)—The mad dash
to the maternity ward of Eilat's
expectant mothers was made
generally by plane at the town's.
expense last year and that's the
main reason for the deficit in
the municipal budget this year.
As the problem was outlined
this week to the town council,
there are no maternity ward fa-
cilities in Eilat and the roads to
the nearest hospitals up north
are terrible. So, the expectant
mothers ar flown to the hos-
pitals.
Still another expense in the
interests of motherhood devel-
oped froffr the fact that birth
time is always a little unpredic-
table. So, the expectant mothers
are housed in hotels while wait-
ing, with the town footing the
bill.
Finally, it was • explained,
somebody has to take care of
the children left behind in Eilat
—and it can't be the new moth-
er's family. Eilat is settled main-
ly by immigrants who have no
money.
The deficit was listed as
25,000 Israeli pounds for the
fiscal year ending March 31.

marked by anti-Jewish out-
bursts in many places.
The Kadar government mem-
ber said that delegations from
the districts • of Szabolcz-Swat-
mar and Hajdu-Bihar had re
cently informed him that after
the uprising was crushed in
Budapest, the rebels took it out
on the Jews in a number of vil-
lages where they were still in
control. The delegations, he said,
told him that • many Jewish
homes in these districts were
looted and a number of Jews,
including women and children,
were killed. ,
The member of the Commu-
nist cabinet charged the leaders
of the Budapest Jewish com-
munity not only with failure to
bring these anti-Jewish events
to public note, but also with
"trying to minimize" these .de-
velopments in the course of a
conversation with him. He told
the press conference the Hun-
garian government will issue a
"White Paper" on the recent
developments in Hungary which
will include docuMents about
the anti-Jewish excesses.
Mr. Marosan declared that
there was "a crafty, tactical
move" on the part of the leaders
of the uprising not to permit
any pogroms during the rising.
The sole reason for these tactics,
he stated, was the fear that anti-
Semitic actions might cause an-
ger among the Western Powers
and alienate sympathy for the
revolutionaries.
Ceremony in Safad

LONDON (JTA) — The War- ,
saw radio reported anti-Semitic
incidents during the election
campaign to the Polish Parlia-
ment.
At a number of meetings, the
speakers were asked from the
audience to state the "national
origin" of some of the candi-
dates. This was met with pro-
tests by other voices from the
audience. The speakers reacted
by condemning anti-Semitism
and explaining to their listeners
that anti-Jewish provocations
are harmful both- to -Poland's
progress and to the country's
prestige abroad, the Warsaw
broadcast said.
Earlier in the month, the
governmentissued instructions
to all state attorneys through-
out the country, "nol to remain
indifferent" to the persecutions
of Polish citizens because of
their race or religion, and to
institute proceedings against
elements conducting inciting
propaganda against Jews.
