governmental organization de-
voted to interpretation of for-
eign affairs, formally retracted
a statement made in one of the
organization's pamphlets which
stated that Communist leader-
ship in various countries is
"often Jewish."
The statement occurs in a
single sentence in a 62-page
pamphlet published by the FPA.
The brochure entitled "Africa:
World's Last Frontier," was
written by John Scott, well-
known' American foreign corre-
spondent who is a special assist-
ant to the publisher of Time
magazine.
Discussing opposition parties
in the Union of South Africa,
Scott had written that some of
the opposition comes from
"Communist-led leftists" and de-
clared: "The leadership is most-
ly white and, as in similar
groups in Europe, often Jew-
ish." •

Anti-Semitism is a mad pas-
sion, akin to the lowest_perversi-
ties of diseased human nature.
It is the will to hate.—Leo Tol-
stoy.

phlet withdrawn from the school
system because of that sentence.
John W. Nason, president of the
Foreign Policy Association, is-
sued the following statement:
"The sentence referring to
Communist leadership in South
Africa has been interpreted as
anti-Semitic. The FPA regrets
that it did not catch the one
sentence in question before it
appeared and led to unfortunate
misunderstanding. The offensive
part of the sentence is irrele-
vant to the general subject be-

in the publication. It should
have been excised from the
text."
Nason declared that the FPA
considered the idea of publish-
ing a retraction in a subsequent
issue of its publications "but
concluded that such a retrac-
tion would spread the statement
more widely, and hence was un-
wise. In our judgment, inserting
a subsequent retraction would
merely call attention to the
statement and do more harm
than good."
