Nasser as 'Boss'
Robert St. John calls Gamal
Abdel Nasser "The Boss." That's
the title of his biographical stud
of the Egyptian dictator, publis
ed by McGraw Hill (330 W. 42
N. Y. 36). Recent developmen
the new friendship establishe
between Nasser and Hussein, t
manner in which Nasser i
peased by many, in the
East and in Western co
seems to prove the validit
title.
St. John has an explanati
the title to the book: "The Arabi
expression for President is El
Rayis. But in colloquial Arabic,

different intonation, El

gers

Mr. President, but his ife, his
friends, and his subord tes call
him the Boss."
St. John's study is well

"The Boss" provides th
background. It delves into

Nasser, according to thi
is cautious not to declare hi
determinedly either for the E
or West bloc.
The Egyptian President encour-
ages his people to buy only Egyp-
tian-made products, but he him-
self smokes American cigarettes.
He prefers foreign films.
He enjoys his popularity in the
Middle East and in New Delhi,
when he goes to India, but he
resents the way the West treats
him.
In his relation to the U. S. A.
and the U. S. S. R. he continues
"his well-tested policy of balance
and power."
His big hate, of course, is
Israel, and on that score he
is adamant.
