More Arab-lsrael Debate
Due at Mideast Hearing
By ROBERT K. WALSH
Arab-lsrael troubles seemed likely to monopolize discussion by ,
witnesses again today at House Foreign Affairs Committee hear
ings on President Eisenhower’s plan for promoting economic sta- ,
bility and security from Soviet aggression in the Middle East.
Rabbi Philip S. Bernstein, chairman of the American Zionist
Committee for Public Affairs, and Salem Bader, representing
the United States Arab Asian
Institute, were scheduled to be 1
heard. Others invited to present 1
views on the administration's
pending resolution included three
House Democrats—Represents- ,
tives Celler and Multer of New i
York and Roosevelt of California |
Although the committee’s ses- i
sion yesterday covered numerous i
aspects of the Middle East prob- i
lems and of the resolution in-1
tended to cope with them, many 1
comments and a few sharp ex- ’
changes dealt largely with Israel
and the Arab countries. j i
Cites Dangers in Arms
The most detailed analysis of"
the Middle East situation and '
criticism of the resolution were ;
presented late in the afternoon'
by Paul B. Johnson, speaking
for the Society of Friends’ Com- ,
mittee on National Legislation. ’
Mr. Johnson explained he did ,
not speak for all Quakers but
believed the FCNL reflected their
general attitude.
As for the pending resolution.;
Mr. Johnson cautioned against
giving the President "an undated
declaration of war.” The mili
tary assistance program designed
to arm Middle East nations
against possible Soviet aggres
sion, he warned, could amount to
arming "both sides in the Arab
lsrael conflict.
He said he was apprehensive
lest the resolution in other ways
"would seem to reinforce rather
than dispel misconceptions cur
rent in the Arab world as to the
purpose of the United States
there.” Peoples of the Middle
East, he said, should not be
given reason to suppose that “we
place most of our reliance upon
sterile military agreements.”
"Economic development,” he
declared, “is valid as an end in
Itself and must not be either a
prize for co-operation with
United States policies or a polit
ical Instrument of the United'
States Government or a secon
dary partner in some emergency

Sees Failure on Basic Needs
The resolution, he contended,
does little to meet basic needs
for building stable social and
political institutions in the Mid
dle East, emphasizing that the
era of imperialism and colonial
ism has passed, and resolving
the present bitter contest for
leadership within the Arab
world. v .*

was twice disrupted by a women

as Mrs. Agnes Walters. When
she came in for the second time

in the Middle East could be laid
at the door of Israel. He urged!

they deplored his "anti-Semitic
and anti-Israel” attitude.
Veterans Leader Speaks
The third witness yesterday,
National Commander William
Carmen of the Jewish War Vet
erans, said his organization
favors the proposed resolution.
He added, however, that the
resolution should be revised and
strengthened so that it will not
merely preserve the status quo
in the Middle East and fail to
deal with the basic need for
achieving an agreement between
the Arabs and Israel.
