that the net result of the race
is the arming of Israel's Arab
enemies, and the exclusion of
Israel from any consideration
in the stockpiling of the tools
of war in the Middle East.
Ostensibly, the large arma-
ments being furnished by the
United States to Iraq, Saudi
Arabia, Lebanon and Jordan
are insurance against Russia's
arming of Syria, Egypt and Ye-
men. But will those arms be
used against leftist Syria and

man whom the New York
Times calls "a highly-placed
Arab's nationalist." The Arab
spokesman said: "At long last
we are getting the guns we
need to defend ourselves
against Israel." Over and over
again, Arab spokesman have
said that "these arms will
never be used by one Arab
against our one common
enemy — Mr. Dulles knows
who that is."
Yet in the face of these open
Arab admissions that the arms
they receive are intended for
use against Israel, the United
States sent eight Globemasters
and Flying Boxcars to the Jor-
danian airport outside Amman.
There, with much hoop-de-
doodle, the American crews un-
loaded jeeps, tank-killer rifles,
machine guns and ammunition.
Two hundred Jordanian offi-
cials watched and cheered the
proceedings. The American Am-
bassador to Amman, Lester D.
Mallory, was on hand. Pointing
to the tank-killer rifles, he
said: "These are powerful
enough to knock out any tanks
of any size—especially Russian."
But Western diplomats here
who heard of these proceedings
wondere-cl whether Mr. Mallory
was being naive or had simply
fallen victim to his own prop-
aganda. For it is well known
here that—with the exception
of Turkey, which is also re-
ceiving large supplies of Ameri-
can arms—all the other Middle
East beneficiaries of American
arms gifts will look forward
to shooting at tanks, and at
other objectives, in Israel, and
not either in Syria or in Egypt.
The New York Times, which
is seldom laggard in supporting
the major foreign policies of
the State Department, has been
consistent in watching for anti-
Israel overtones in the past 18
months. On the day after "Op-
eration Good Hope" landed the
airlifted arms in Jordan, the
Times said editorially:_
Czechoslovakia. A 11 e n came
back empty-handed (it turned
out later that he had not even
dared to hand a written warn-
ing from Secretary of State
John Foster Dulles to Egypt's
President Garnal Abdel Nasser).
It is felt here by many that
Henderson's mission may have
been just as fruitless as Allen's.
But beyond the puzzlement,
there is a fear also. It is the
fear that some of the Arab lead-
ers are not merely barking
against Israel, but mean to bite
—using their great armaments
of whatever origin, Russian or
American.
Henry Cabot Lodge, head of
the U.S. delegation here, stated
on a network television pro-
gram very recently that the
U.S. policy still holds firmly
to the idea that America would

"The policy move now be-
ing taken could backfire. In
fact, it has already aroused
concern in Israel which is
always worried at the idea of
her Arab neighbors being fur-
nished arms. This is an aspect
of the present jockeying for
position that seems to have
been overlooked in Washing-
ton. Israel ... should be reas-
sured."

But such "reassurance" for
Israel can be given only in con-
crete terms. Supplying Israel
with submarines as defense
against the undersea craft fur-
nished to Egypt by Russia
would furnish some comfort to
Israel. Furnishing Israel with
jet planes capable of defending
the Jewish State against the
Russian MIG's and Ilyushins
sent by Moscow to Syria would
add to the reassurance needed
by the Jerusalem government.

Yet these are precisely the
items missing in the game which
the United States is playing
against Russia in the Middle
East. Loy W. Henderson, Dep-
uty Undersecretary of State,
did not even deem it necessary
to see Israel government offi-
cials when he visited the Mid
dle East. Henderson's concern,
apparently, was not to organize
Arab resistance against the So-
viet incursions in Syria—but
rather to hold back the Jor-
danians, Iraqis and Lebanese
against resistance to Syria.
* * *
These are the factors in the
Ainerican policy and in Wash-
ington's implementation of that
policy that puzzle many diplo-
mats here. Some of the dele-
gates draw a parallel between
Henderson's trip to the Middle
East and the hurried mission
undertaken in 1955 by another
State Department of f i c i a 1,
George V. Allen, who flew to
Cairo two • years ago after it
became known that Egypt was
receiving large arms shipments
from the Soviet Union via
defend Israel against aggres-
sion. That was a very nice
statement. But one wonders
when such a policy might be in-
voked. Is it being saved for a
time after seven Arab states,
using their Russian and Ameri-
can arms, have actually at-
tacked Israel? What would hap-
pen to Israel in the meantime?
