Jordan Land
Of No Past,
Poor Future
By The Associated Press
The Hashemite Kingdom of Jor-
dan is an unlikely land with virtu-
ally no past, only a precarious
present and possibly no future.
The British carved the 30,000-
odd square mile Arab kingdom out
of their Palestine mandate chiefly
to provide a job for their World
War I crony, Abdullah Ibn Al Hus-
sein, and to insure his future
friendship.
But old King Abdullah was cut
down by assassins in 1951, leaving
Jordan with no apparent reason-
geographic, economic or historic-
for existing at all.
No Natural Boundaries
Except for the Jordan River,
which separates it from Israel on
the west, Jordan has no natural'
boundaries. Easterly, it fans out
into the Arabian Desert, its limits
arbitrary and ill-defined.
Jordan's popul Pion is estimated
at more than 11/2 million. Nearly a
million live west of the Jordan, an
area taken over in 1949 from the
Arab-Israel partition of Palestine.
The Palestinians pay scant allegi-
ance to Jordan's young King Hus-
sein.
. Until recently, Jordan lived on
a 30 million dollar handout from
Britain. Hussein gave it up under
Arab pressure. Arab neighbors
agreed to take over the British
role. The big question: Can they
afford it?
Moved Troops In
During the brief Suez, War,
Syria and Saudi Arabia found it
necessary to move troops into Jor-
dan for "protective" purposes.
They're still there, possibly antici-
gating an Arab partition of the
unlikely country.
Probably Jordan, of all the Arab
states, has been hurt most by the
current tense state of the Mideast.
Dulled Fighting Edge
The anti-colonialism, of its
neighbors, directed chiefly against
the British, has deprived Jordan
of its 30 million dollar gratuity
and probably has dulled the sharp
fighting edgg of the Arab Legion.
The Arab-Israeli war of 1948-49,
in which the Legion turned out to
be the Arabs' only effective fight-
ing force, left some 600,000 restless
refugees in Jordan: They're still
there.

BREAKS TRADITION:

l

'U' TV Begins Films on France

by DAVID GELFAND
With a series of shows on France
the University Television Service
breaks its tradition of instructive
television and enters the field of
travelogue and analysis.
Representing a large expenditure
of talent and money, the series,
which is in production, will at-
tempt to give a picture of what
France is today-and why.
The programs are scheduled one
per week on the second half of
the University's Sunday Television
hour.
Producer Al Slote has made a
wealth of filmed material available
COUNSELING:
Questions
Returns
Very High
Campus Counseling committee
received an "amazing return"~ on
their questionnaire sent out in
December, according to Dave
Baad, assistant to the dean of
men.
The usual return for mail ques-
tionnaires is from 40 to 60 per-
cent Baad said, and about 90 per-
cent' were received.
This percentage was well
spread throughout the colleges, he
explained, although the business
administration school only re-
turned 75 percent.
The questionnaires are now be-
ing processed by Survey Research
Center, so they can be put into
percentages, Baad declared. As
soon as this is accomplished the
whole committee will meet to de-
termine the next step.
He expressed the belief that re-
sults wouldn't be available until
the end of next summer.
The Counseling Committee was
established last spring, after Stu-
dent Government Council re-
quested Vice-President for Stu-
dent Affairs James A. Lewis study
the problems brought about by
the expanding university.
The committee, composed of
members of all University Coun-
seling services, will study all pha-
ses and problems of the present
counseling system.

to the series, according to director
Hazen Shumacher.
Slote recently spent two years
in France, studying and traveling.
He has gotten films from, among
others, the mayor of Paris, the
head of the Louvre, and the Min-
ister of Education.
The first show is a general intro-
duction to the people and regions
of France. Later shows will be
dedicated to the city of paris,
French literature, art and music,
and post-war France.
'U' Faculty Takes Part
The University faculty will con-
tribute heavily to the shows on
literature and art. Members of the
Romance Language and Fine Arts
Departments appear along with
interviews of prominent authori-
ties on French subjects.
In addition to faculty contri-
butions and films from outside
sources, the Television Service sent
a camera crew to New York to
interview Frenchmen there.
According to Shumacher, the
crew almost got an interview with
French Foreign Minister Pineau.
A pressing appointment drew him
away before the crew could get set
up.
Always Lost
The camera crew did corner a
pretty Air France Stewardess. Ask-

ed to
Paris,
"They
lost in

compare New York with
the young lady remarked,
are the same. I always get
both."

In a more serious interview, a
prominent perfume manufaceurer
noted that "New York is becoming
a greater cultural center than
Paris. For theater, music and art,
it is surpassing Paris."
In the United Nations Building,
the crew talked to a young French
girl serving as a guide there.
Offering her opinion on the differ-
ence between a Frenchman and
an American male, she remarked,
"One speaks English, the other
speaks French."
High Points
Describing the Series in general,
producer Slote commented that
the introductory show on Paris
and the show on post-war France
should prove to be the high points
in the series.
But a different opinion was of-
fered by Monsieur Jean Carduner,
instructor in the Romance Langu-
ages Department and host for the
programs, who remarked that
something else may prove more
interesting to the listener.
"The high point of the series?"
asked Carduner, tongue in cheek,
"That is easy-it's me."

that every church willing to do
so should pay the salary of a Junior
instructor to teach courses in that
particular denomination, "if class-
room space is available." Sects un-
able to bear the expense would
receive help from the state or
other churches.
The panel also discussed the
effect of the University environ-
ment and curriculum on religious
faith. Miss Scruggs said tradi-
tional faith is weakened, and a
questioning attitude appears, due
to the courses taken in college. She
felt that a student's home and
church background is often inade-
quate for answering the questions
raised in classes.
Religious Skepticism
Marks took an opposing view,
saying that religious skepticism
on campuses, like political radical-
ism, was largely a myth. "Deeply-
rooted beliefs brought from home
are confirmed in college," he said.
"Students generally end up where
they started, regardless of fallacies
in their faith which may be ex-
posed."
Trost divided students into three
groups, saying that those who
A *

come with firm, well-grounded be-
liefs are strengthened in them
whilenominally religious students
and those believing in a "fire-and-
brimstone" God generally desert
their faiths.
Slobodkin regarded the profes-
sors role in the student's religious
experience as that of a "cold
shower," dousing the'students with
what he believes to be true. Marks
took exception to this, calling the
University environment a "luke-
warm bath" instead.
Holmer Lecture
The conference continues today
with lectures by Prof. Paul L.
Holmer ofhthe philosophy depart-
ment of the University of Minne-
sota on "Can we be both Intelli-
gent and Religious?" at 4:15 p.m.
in Auditorium A, Angell Hall. Capt.
