eluding his parents, who had
perished in the Holocaust.
In the months leading up to
Israel's Declaration of In-
dependence, the provisional
government came under
great pressure to postpone
what seemed to be the in-
evitable — the announcement
of statehood. The United
States, one of the key interna-
tional players in the debate,
proposed an international
trusteeship for. Palestine. This
proposal did not go down well
in Tel Aviv.
In common with most
members of the embryonic
Jewish government, Kol
believed that the state should
be declared, even if the
United States was not on its
side. He had supported the
1947 United Nations parti-
tion plan, which called for the
division of Palestine into a
Jewish and an Arab state,
with an international enclave
in Jerusalem, and now he had
no intention of retreating
from that position.
"I believed in territorial
compromise with the Arabs,"
he said. "And Ben-Gurion
knew he couldn't get all of
Eretz Yisrael as a Jewish
state."
Kol realized that Arab ar-
mies would invade Palestine
if the provisional government
declared statehood. But he
was prepared to face the
storm. "We knew there would
be a serious war. We knew
that very well. I believed that
we would succeed in repelling
the Arab attack, but that we
would have to pay a heavy
price," he said.
Kol's assessment of the
situation was that the Jews of
Palestine had reached a
historic moment that "we
could not miss?' The Soviet
Union, traditionally opposed
to Zionism, had come out in
favor of Jewish sovereignty.
And the United States, after
having toyed with the idea of
a United Nations trusteeship,
had finaly assented to Israeli
statehood as well.
For the first time since the
end of World War II, the
superpowers were in total
agreement on a major global
issue.
A glance at the Declaration
of Independence reveals a
glaring omission: Chaim
Weizmann's name is missing.
Weizmann, the would-be
president of Israel and the
driving force behind the 1917
Balfour Declaration, was not-
in Tel Aviv when it was
signed.
Several days before that oc-
casion, Ben-Gurion had
dispatched Zionism's elder
statesman to Washington.

WHAT IS DISC
DEGENERATION?
As we grow older and less active the tough
elastic tissue of the disc begins to lose its fluid.
The loss of fluid thins and weakens the disc
making its function as a shock absorber for the
spine ineffective.
THREE TYPES
OF DISC TROUBLE
Generally, disc problems fall into three categories:
1) Slipped disc 2) Ruptured disc
3) Disc Degeneration
The spine is designed to withstand a great deal of stress and
strain; but a fall, a back injury, a violent sneeze, or long-continued
strain may throw a vertebra out of position, protrude a disc, and
compress nerves. This is usually called slipped disc and happens
at one time or another to about two out of five adults.
WHAT CAN BE DONE?
Fortunately, 95 % of all disc cases can be managed through
modern chiropractic methods. Years of research and experience
in disc cases qualifies the doctor of chiropractic as the doctor of
choice in acute and chronic disc problems.
CHIROPRACTIC CARE FOR
DISC PROBLEMS
Specialized chiropractic techniques in disc care include: 1)
Thorough chiropractic examination to determine extent and cause;
2) Realigning the spinal column; 3) Balancing the spine and pelvis;
4) Reducing vertebral subluxations; 5) Stimulating disc nutrition.
Any person suffering from acute or chronic back pain should
see a doctor of chiropractic to determine the cause and what should
be done about it. A doctor of chiropractic knows DISC PROBLEMS
and can help you.
