Anti-Israel, Pro-Arab Communist Policies
Exposed in Brian Crozier's 'Since Stalin'
Brian Crozier, in a penetrating
analysis of Communist power and
its aspects for the future, in "Since
Stalin: An Assessment of Commu-
nist Power," published by Coward-
McCann, views seriously the pos-
sibility of a Sino-Soviet alliance
with the death of Mao and does
not believe that anti-Communist
coups are possible in Russia and
China. He points to the "clear aim
of Soviet policy "to restore Mos-
cow's former absolute hold on the
international movement."
There is a warning against im-
pending continuing dangers in the
author's admonition:
"In a liberal context, anti-
communism does not in any
sense involve a witch-hunt or—
except in time of grave emerg-
ency—a reduction of normal
liberties. What it does call for is
readiness on Inc part of those
who want to defend a threaten-
ed way of life to take up the
challenge; to answer totalitarian
arguments; to counter totalitar-
ian tactics in factories anr uni-
versities. Above all, it call for a
sense of responsibility on the
part of those in executive posi-
tions especially in the world of
communications, and a discreet
readiness to reduce the power
of infiltrators to do their worst,
for instance, by providing a
platform for anti-totalitarians.
UAHC Raps Nixon on Scranton Report
NEW YORK (JTA)—The Union
of American Hebrew Congrega-
tions, the congregational body of
Reform Judaism, became a con-
stituent of the World Jewish Con-
gress in an action voted by its
National Board of Trustees.
The action was taken on the rec-
ommendation of Rabbi Maurice B.
Eisendrath, president of the UAHC,
in his semi-annual report. The in-
vitation for the UAHC to join the
WJC through membership in its
American section was extended by
Dr. Nahum Goldmann, president of
the World Jewish Congress.
Rabbi Eisendrath's report to
the board of trustees sharply
criticized President Nixon for re-
jecting the appeal of the Scran-
ton Commission on Campus Un-
rest, that he assume the moral
leadership needed to ease the
tensions of what the commission
termed "a nation on the edge of
chaos."
He noted that the UAHC was par-
ticipating "in every struggle on the
American scene for the achieve-
ment of greater unity, cooperation
and harmony" among Jewish
groups in this country and ob-
served that "today it is urgent to
increase cooperation and joint col-
laboration" on the world scene as
well.
Rabbi Eisendrath cited "the

Friday, December 18, 1970-41
If the long war is lost,'it will be
because such things are• not
done, or not done In time."
Crozier comments on Communist
intrusions in the Middle East and
the assistance that has been given
the Arabs. While indicating the al-
liance that was formed by Nikita
Khrushchev with the Arab Socialist
Union in Egypt, he indicates as an
indication of betrayals:
"The Russians have never
troubled themselves to help perse-
cuted Communist parties if, at a
given time, Soviet State interests
made it expedient to maintain good
relations with the appropriate gov-
ernment. For years after the Sov-
iet arms deal with Egypt in 1955,
Egypt's Communists continued to
languish in Nasser's jails. Simi-
larly, Stalin was on good terms
with Chiang Kai-shek while the
latter was waging war on Mao's
communist guerrillas (an early
cause of the Sino-Soviet rift)."
There is reference also to De-
Gaulle's policies and Crozier
charges that "by banning ship-
ments of arms to Israel, he in-
directly helped Soviet policy in
the Near East."
Crozier lists in an appendix In-
ternational Front Organizations
and in describing early in his book
the work of the World Council of
Peace he states: "In the Arab-Is-
raeli dispute, all its structures
have been reserved for the Is-
raelis, the Arabs receiving praise
and support"
The author goes into detail to
describe the Czechoslovak tragedy
and the defection of the Czech
author, Ladislav Macacko, who
went to Israel and left his native
land as a protest against the com-
munist persecutions.
