Senators predicted today that Congress will act quickly to strengthen the weak links they said Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower has pointed out in American de- fenses. Eisenhower urged among other things that defense of Alaska be bolstered at once, that the Air Force be given at least a billion and a half a year to keep up its fighting strength, and that “our anti-submarine facilities” be rein- forced. \ corporation | from Egypt to Israel.

SOKOLSKY | i} THE FEAST OF FREEDOM This week, Jews all over the world celebrate the Feast of Pass- | one of the| great historic struggles for [ erty. Each year, Jews sit at the Seder “(a religious feast in the home) and recount the passage| vice is most often read in Hebrew, | which the listeners generally do not understand, they wait im-| But the essence of this holiday | is not the festive joy, but the celebration of human freedom. It | marks a revolt from and a re-| nuciation of slavery. It establishes | the doctrine of the inalienable| lief is inherent in the Passover. A series of events followed the freeing of the Jews from slavery| in Egypt, the climax of - which| was the statement of the moral law by Moses. It is difficult for our zeneration to realize the full mean- ing of this event, particularly the ontrast between the worship of | he Golden Calf and the Ten Com- nandments. | To this so-called sophisticated age, all this is fable, spoken per- haps to terrify a primitive people. Yet, this aspect must be consid- sred: Liberty without restraint can be horrible. We witnessiits extreme | ugliness in such a reversion to ‘he beast in the disclosure of hoin- >sexuality in the State Department ind other agencies of government n fact, we witness the anarchy of | ur times in the inadequate public | orror at such a disclosure. It is| 10t that we are wiser but rather| hat we have so lost our sense of restraint that we take, as it were, n our stride every vice that hu- man experience indicates can only | ead to deterioration. | What Moses gave in the Ten Commandments was a summary of | quman experience, if you must re- | ect divine inspiration. Thou shalt 10t bear false witness—thous shalt 10t lie—how far have we departed' rem that. As a working newspa- serman, I cncounter every day the | shocking spectacle of great figures n our life, saying in public what hey know is not true, and then saying in private—“off the record,” ‘hey call it—the opposite of what hey say in public. Bearing false witness is a hor- vible vice because, carried to the engths to which jt is in these| lays, it destroys the only basis ‘hat can exist for human relations, ‘or the contract in business, for :onfidence between man and wo- man in marriage, for faith of a seor:le in those who govern them. Lying is as easy as adultery nd both too often cannot be un- covered., Yet, a society based on ies, as on adultery, cannot long stand. So a society in which the relations of parent and child are; not grounded in respect, in truth- fulness, will be without a family system, each individual moving about like a stray cat. In such a society, pity, compassion, charity and love soon disappear and noth- ing good can replace these qual- ities. This, then, is the essence of the Passover Feast: It teaches man the value of liberty, but it also be- speaks restraint, self-restraint, that liberty may not become an an- archy, turbulent pursuit of individ- ual impulses, without regard to the whole community and in disregard of moral law. It was to a comparatively primi- tive people, not far removed from It is difficult in our generation to desert, former slaves and the child- ren of slaves could conceive of the loftiest ideals of human liberty and moral existence. Yet, they did. And what s more, they carried their concepts of in- dividual liberty and social justice and moral law until it blossomed over the Earth, in many forms, and for it men lived and died. There have been many periods in human history when men wallowed in the trough of horrible vicious- ness, each pursuing his course with- out regard to right. Yet, somehow, breaking through the dark clouds of faithlessness, stands on Mount Sinai the figure of Moses, crying to all the people: “Turn ye not unto idols, nor make to yourselves molten gods: I am the Lord your God. . . “Sanctify yourselves, therefore, and ke ye holy” MISCELLANEOUS “THE BAHA'I faith is not an in- vitation to a new religion; it is a call to religious unity.” For lit- erature Box 992 Mountain View, Alaska, GUARANTEED Realistic Perman- ent. $7.50.
