The opportunities for education among Arab Israelis have long since surpassed those for Arabs in other countries. Eventually, Israel will have the first Arab community anywhere in which almost everyone can read and write. . . . "Each year sees over 5,000 additional students in Institutions of higher learning. Total enrollment is expected to reach 45,000 by 1975_ Increasing numbers of Eastern Jews and Arabs are graduating from these institutions. "In Israel today every third person, whether Jew or Arab, is a pupil or student, from kindergarten to university, a record surpassed by very few countries. Approximately 10 per cent of the national bud- get is allotted to the Ministry of Education and Culture, a proportion exceeded only by the Ministry of Defense... . "What instrumentality can surpass education as a means of fin- ally overcoming social inequality? That Israel is pledging so much of her wherewithal to equal educational opportunity for everyone constitutes a basic assurance of the coming unity of Israeli society." The Eckardts' work is of great value in presenting the truth about Israel's position in the Middle East. Perhaps it will serve to assert the truth against the venomous lies that have been circulated, especially at the recent session in the Washington National Cathedral where truth was falsified by Christians. Amending the generalizations about Christian indifference or occasional animosity toward Jews and Israel, we must take into account the courageous stand that has been taken by many others — by the Rev. Edward H. Flannery and Dr. Christian E. Hauer Jr., and many others who have refuted unjust accusations and who have demanded fairness toward Israel and Jewry.

There should be no more pressure on Israel to accept Arab threats, boycotts, blockades and terrorism as something normal and reasonable, and to refrain from counteraction." In his book that becomes so valaifile in its approach toward better relations between Jews and Arabs, Dr. Hauer, who is an ordain- ed Protestant minister, is optimistic about both. Jewish and Arab desires for peace. Yet he realizes that all ills become charges against Israel and that any accusation soon is accepted as fact. That is why he declares: "Ode' begins to-suspect that if an Arab annually through a charitable suffered malnutrition during the Ramadan fast. that too would e charged against Israel. But if one is to err, let it be on the side of N and Christianity teach. Thus one is a generosity. Thus do Judaism, Islam supposed to approach the ways to peace." Dr. Hauer reviews the Zionist background, giving details about . .1= Israel's emergence into statehood as means of explaining the necessity (available in multiples of $2500) for an evaluation of peace hopes.
