From a rocking chair, the
world seems to be standing still,
although the newspapers record
daily new "important" events ...
Much attention is being focused
on our President-elect, whose
boyish charm exudes confidence
. . . But the problems that will
face him within a few weeks
are the same that have been
plaguing the administrations that
preceded him ... He will have
to tackle the overall issue of the
cold war and its ramifications in
the Middle East . • . And we
would wish that American Zion-
ist leadership would wait awhile
before passing resolutions and
"requesting" and "viewing with
alarm" . . The Middle East
question cannot be solved over-
night nor can we hope that Ken-,
nedy has a ready formula to
establish peace between Arabs
and Jews . . . The political af-
fairs affecting Israel should be
left in the hands of Israeli
statesmanship . . .
