LONDON — The 1956 Suez
campaign became the subject
of acrimonious debate in the
House of Commons Tuesday
night when Anthony Head,
who then was Secretary of
State for War, strongly defend-
ed both the military effort and
the then Prime Minister An-
thony Eden's decision to launch
the campaign.
The "tragedy" of the cam-
paign, Head asserted, was "that
the operation stopped when it
did." He added that Eden had
been collusion with Israel if
Communist infiltration into a
"backwards country could be
halted by energetic action."
The former cabinet official
made his points during a
stormy debate in which the
opposition demanded the ap-
pointment of a select commit-
tee to investigate the Suez
campaign and the events which
led to it.
Richard Crossman, Labor MP,
asserted that there must have
been collusion with Israel if
not in planning then by the
giving of assurances to the Is-
raelis of French air support.
He asserted that Israel "could
not otherwise have started the
operation" and called the gov-
ernment's refusal to name a
special committee "a conspir-
acy of silence."
A government spokesman
said that all the desired infor-
mation was available in official
dispatches and he rejected the
demand for a select committee.

DOES Make a Difference

Hayes, Bikel Join Forces to Make
Pioneer Women Event Memorable

By NORMAN LEBOW
The Pioneer Women donor
program last Sunday at the
Ford Auditorium was informa-
tive, stimulating and entertain-
ing, in short, a tasteful and
thoroughly successful evening
well-programmed and well ex-
ecuted.
Featured speaker for the
evening was Representative
Wayne L. Hayes, Democrat
from Ohio, who spoke on
American foreign policy, in
the world in general, and spec-
ifically concerning the Middle-
East and Israel. Rep. Hayes, a
member of the House Foreign
Affairs Committee, recently re-
tufrned from a fact-finding tour
of European and Mid-East
countries.
He attacked what he said was
the Eisenhower administra-
tion's short-sighted method of
planning foreign policy, main-
taining that, while Soviet plans
were made decades in advance,
it is a rare occasion when U.S.
policy goes more than one day
into the future.
Hayes attributed the hate of
Arab leaders for Israel to their
fear of trouble — not • from
Israel, but from their own
peoples. While Israel yet
stands, it shows other areas of
the under-developed Middle-
East what can be done in a
democracy to build up barren
lands into modern productive
countries with a decent living
standard for the populace. He
criticized the Arab leaders for
eating out of gold plates while
the masses go completely un-
fed. On this score he ex-
pressed disdain for American
aid policies which send arms to
countries that do not know
what to do with them, while
the real need in these coun-
tries is for food and technical
aid. He blamed this on the
chronic narrow vision that keeps

The
Most Wonderful
Gift of Them All

Jewish Hospitals Treat nearly $170,000,000 during 1957,
it was reported in the "1958
550,000 Patients in '57 Yearbook of Jewish Social Serv-

diplomats in the air-conditioned
palaces of despotic rulers
and mistaking what they say
for what the people of those
countries desire.
But what really made the
evening a night to remember
was a folk song program pre-
sented by Theodore Bikel who
sang in Hebrew, Greek, Yid-
dish (both Litvak and Galit-
zianer varieties), Russian and
Ladino. The Ladino was espe-
cially interesting, since it is
the counterpart of Yiddish
among Spanish Jews and is
rarely heard outside by those
countries.
Bikel's singing is, for want
of a better word, beautiful. He
sings clearly, pleasantly and with
genuine emotion. Without be-
ing able to speak for the Rus-
sian, Greek or Ladino songs,
we can say that his Yiddish
and Hebrew repertoires are
authentic and he delivers the
finest renditions of these folk
songs we have ever heard.
Bikel is extremely talented on
the guitar and harmonica and
he sings folk songs in 17 lan-
guages.
It was announced that $50,000
in the Pioneer Women's fund
drive had been reached at the
time of the donor.

Powerful Performances

Pianist Seymour Lipkin and
Cellist Paul Olefsky, renowned
both in the Detroit community
as well as nationally for their
artistry, teamed up on Wednes-
day night to present a recital
of great power and musician-
ship.
Performing both in duos and
solos, the pair tackled works
formidable for persons of less
ability. When they appeared
together, there existed between
them a bond of understanding
that kept each in perfect rap-
port with the other.
In addition to their musical
genius, it is a pleasure to
watch them perform for the
sheer intensity of their per-
formances.
The audience was smaller
than these artists deserve, but
those who were there re-
sponded well to the two young
virtuosi. —N. L.
