, Several years ago interna
tional communism consolidat
ed into a coni'inuinig program
several lines of action which
previously had been laid down
for different parts of the world
Briefly, this program calls
for separation of the European
powers from their markets and
sources of raw materials in As
jia and Africa, which could then
be acquired by communism
while the western economy
w a s collapsing. Communist
hopes for conquest of the west
always have been predicated
upon siuch a collapse.
The program was adapted
when the west failed to collap
se after World War II, which
the communists had done so
much to bring on when they
signed their 1*939 pact with
Hitler. The postwar situation
was saved1 very largely thru
the economic strength of the

United States.
Now Russia is acting in the
Middle East very much as she
acted in middle Europe in 1939
While tihe United States and
| Britain were working very hard
[and very carefully to prevent
a new iwar in that area, the
communists moved in to dis
turb the balance of power by
practically givinjg1 heavy arms
to Egypt.
That made Russia the vir
tual sponsor o'f one side in the
Arab-Israeli dispute, a position
into which the United States
had refused to ibe maneuvered
(when she insisted she would
.supply only defensive weapons
on a cash Basis.
; The problem now is the very
delicate one of trying to restore
the balance, either Iby arms or
security pledges for Israel with
out creating a situation similiiai
to that which developed in Koi
ea.
There the United States and
the United Nations sponsored
one side and Russia subverted
the other, and a war resulted
fn which the free world had to
fight very large comimunist
controliled forces.
The danger in the Middle
Bast is not to fee minimized.
The Arabs are bitterly dedioat
ed to reconquest of Israel. Araib
children are drilled in hatred.
Their elders are drilled in fear
that the dynamic Israelis will
eventually attempt to expand
the territory they have been
given.
Thoughts of war. therefore,
take on preventive aspects on
both sides.
There are no indications Rus
sia will do anything to heilp al
leviate the situation. Instead,
she seems to have deliberately
taken advantage of a ilong-wat
ched-for opportunity to inject
herself into the Middle East
and Africa, and is working hard
at it.
In the meantime, the Bi|g 4
conference at Geneva exerts
itself toward better cultural
understanding, better political
and military understanding. A
square face-up to what the com
munists are doing is more im
portant at this moment.
