Direct JTA Teletype Wire to The Jewish News 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. .

WHERE You Save .. 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.

Friday till 6 , 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.
