Louis E. Lomax, already widely

and as a keen observer of events
involving international occurrences,
issues a warning of an impending
danger. in Thailand.
In "Thailand: The War That Is,
The War That Will be," published
by Random House, Dr. Lomax calls
Thailand a Vietnam in the making.
Writing from Bangkok, reporting
on the singing by Baptist youths
that "Jesus is coming," he warns
that "the great fear is that the
Communists will be there first."
His first hand report quotes
documents, relates personal experi-
ences, points to the impending re-
volt and the feelings of the masses,
as well as the intruding influences
and he quotes Congressional
opinions, referring to the views of
Fulbright and others. He warns by
making these observations from
Bangkok:
"Even now there is great trou-
bling of the national will. And
when the Vietnam conflict comes
to an awkward end there will in-
evitably be a reassessment of our
foreign policy. The liberals will be-
come the isolationists, the conserva-
tives will turn into globalists in
their relentless pursuit of Com-
munism. Most of all there will be
the issue of Americans dying and
killing for unclear reasons. The
Washington-Bangkok axis is a ne-
farious alliance and the Rusk-
Thant Memorandum that under
girds it is an exercise in diplomatic
treachery. If allowed to work its
will, this alliance, this memoran-
dum, dooms -us to both internal
and international disaster. But if
the Congress and the people rise
as one and cry 'Halt!" to the mili-
tary-industrial complex, these men

sionately warned us against, then
American men will no longer die
in the wrong place, for the wrong
reasons, and at the wrong time."

No Decision on Sale
of Planes to Israel
WASHINGTON (JTA)—Defense
Secretary Clark Clifford testified
before the House Foreign Affairs
Committee Wednesday that the
Johnson administration has made
no decision on Israel's aulication
to buy phantom jet fighter bomb-
ers.
He said he was "guided entirely
by the President's stateme.it after
meeting Prime Minister Levi Esh-

ranch in Texas last January.
At that time, the President
promised to keep the request un-
der review. Clifford said the two
governments had been in constant
contact, but would not go beyond
that,
Brazil Police Seek Slayer
of Ritual Slaughterer
RIO DE JANEIRO (JTA) — A
manhunt is under way in Brazil's
remote Parana state for a young
Arab who shot and seriously
wounded a Jew in Curitiba, the
provincial capital.
The victim was Moshe Getstein,
a ritual slaughterer for the Jewish
community which numbers 3,000.
The alleged gunman is Saaid Kaza-
hala who is said to have fired
three revolver bullets into Mr.
Getstein's head. Police said the
crime may have been politically
motivated.
There are 6,000 Arabs in Curi-
tiba, Parana adjoins Paraguay
where, according to persistent re-
ports, wanted Nazi war criminals
have found a haven. Said to be
among the latter are Martin Bor-
mann, one-time deputy of Hitler,
and the notorious Dr. Josef Men-
gele who selected victims for the
Auschwitz gas chambers.
