Truth Can Counter Anti-Israel Propaganda Machine: St. John
By ROBERT ST. JOHN
(Copyright 1976, JTA, Inc.)
While her border's are
relatively quiet anti-Israel
propaganda attacks are
more vicious than ever.
The Arabs are abetted in
their attempt to turn world
opinions against Israel by
the doubts and confusion
of many Jews, as well as
non-Jews.

Child, Teenager or Adult
between East Coast, Middle
_West, the South and the Far
West on lecture tours, I have
been dismayed by indica-
tions of the wide acceptance
of many preposterous
myths circulated by the
Arab propaganda machine.,
Often this seems- to be be-
cause of lack of information.
Never in the short time
since the Jewish State was
re-established has there
been such a need for cold,
precise facts.
Those of us who fre-
quently have to face Arab
hecklers in public gather-
ings know how well pre-
pared they are with such
questions as:
"Answer in one sentence,
what right do the Jews have
to be in the Middle East
anyway?"
While no reply to their
questions will satisfy or
convince the professional
anti-Semites or Arab propa-
gandists, there are, I have
recently discovered, vast
numbers of Americans who
could be won over (or won
back) to Israel's side if the
truth were to be presented
to them in a logical, intelli-'
gent, non-emotional man-
ner.
It would take days,
weeks, months of re-
searching through a whole
library source of books to
dig out answers to even the
one hundred attacks most
often used by Israel's ene-
mies, if this work had not
already been done by a
brilliant young Washing-
ton editor, Wolf Blitzer.
"Myths and Facts 1976, a
Concise Record of the Arab-
Israel Conflict," is a
119-page paperback book
published recently by the
Near East Report (1341 G
Street, N.W., Washington,
20005), which in turn is a
Washington weekly news
letter on American policy in
the Near East established in
1957. The first edition of
"Myths and Facts" was put
out in 1964. The present ed-

•diff•n•nt and unusual
iction is the fifth. Previous
editions have sold 500,000
copies. This revised and up-
dated edition ought to sell
another half million copies
if enough people are made
aware of its inestimable
value as a weapon in the war
between truth and false-
hood.
The book's organization is
of great value because it
enables one to silence critics
simply by flicking pages to
specific facts. Being a non-
profit venture, the price of
"Myths and Facts" is within
anyone's reach — 95 cents a
copy including postage, but
dropping as low as 50 cents
in lots of 100.
Maps, tables, columns
and figures and short fac-
tual paragraphs answer
such questions as:
Is it true that the Arabs
have always been tolerant
of minorities?
What proof is there that
there have always been
more Jews than Arabs in
Jerusalem, the ratio often
being as high as three to
one? -
Is the ratio of Arabs to
Jews in the Middle East 45
to one, -29 to one or 10 to
one?
Is it true that the Arab
countries spend five dollars
on arms and munitions for
every dollar spent by Israel?
The Middle East is a re-
gion of Arab sheikhdoms,
absolute monarchies and
military-dominated re-
gimes. Besides Israel what
are (or were) the only two
Middle Eastern Republics?
Prime Minister Rabin has
warned not only Israelis but
the entire Jewish world that
in the months to come he ex-
pects that increased pres-
sure will be .put on Israel to
make concessions in the in-
terest of obtaining a peace
_ settlement with the Arabs.
At the same time, those of
us in the field of public rela-
tions expect that the Arab
propaganda campaign will
be greatly intensified.
Therefore, there is a critical
need for such weapons as
"Myths and Facts."
Jewish War Dead
Cited in Belgium
BRUSSELS (JTA) —
Special prayers for Jewish
war dead were recited last'
week at "Memorial Day"
ceremonies in the crypt of
Mardasson where Allied
I personnel who died in the
Battle of,the Bulge are bur-
ied.
The Belgian army's Chief
Jewish chaplain Pinhas Ka-
lenberg, recited kadish for
the Jewish GIs in the pres-
ence of Prince Albert of Bel-
gium, the king's brother, the
American ambassador to
Belgium and members of
the government.
One of the walls of the
crypt, located on the site of
the Bastogne battle, is de-
voted to the Jewish war
dead and is decorated with a
huge menora. A special sec--.
tion devoted to American
army Jewish personnel
killed in action was opened
in the Bastogne Historical
Center June 7.

The best thing s
in life are free.
Sometimes.
Chances are, you read as many resort-ads as we
do. So you see how many places are practically
giving away a vacation. Free this, free that,
free the other.
But because a vacation is such an important time
for you, a rare chance to throw off cares and
stretch your mind and muscles, shouldn't
the "free" you give first consideration be
"free choice".
For four generations, we've been giving
discerning vacationers every facility for round-
the-clock-pleasure, every aspect of warm
hospitality. That's why people keep coming back,
every season of the year.
Frankly, we're not about to cut quality. When
you come to the Nevele, you'll still find the same
impeccable service, the same scrupulous
attention to every detail, the same carefully
supervised standard of excellence.
In short, quality.
It won't be free. But it will be at a price that
gives you the best possible value for your
vacation dollar.
We wouldn't have it any other way.
