These people, of former ages and. not. many of them. have read too much about what the world. went through in.formerages. In the international. field,. there is great concernfover the ‘idedlogital con- between Communism and Capitalism, with » worry: about the. economic state_of the world and the barziers to in- ternational trade. There is anxiety as the nations,openly maintain vast armaments designed to protect them against sion. On the: domestic scene, one worries about the likelihood of a depression. An- other‘is concerned over the gradually developing welfare state, With fears that it will eliminate the urge that makes hu- man beings go forward. When these things are out of mind, there is always time to be coneernedy over the gevern- ment’s budget and the probable taxes that one will have to pay. The business. of worry does not. con- fine itself to international’ and, national affairs. In the-realm. , of persongl. living, there are those. whe,are greatly concern- ed lest the rest ofthe. human, race go to the dogs.

At other times, they; are concerned: with, the fundamental decline in character; as. ex- pressed in human, living, andthe. lack of sincerity and: honesty: among the. people they know.

The man or woman, who has acquired a philosophy, as life presents its tidbits, trials and tribulations, has a foundation upon which to stand regardless of the way the world goes.

If Mr. Price is protesting against the committee’s action in taking the testimony of a witness, regardless of his statements, them he is wrong. The U.N. has nothing to do with any inquiry conducted by any agency of the United States. However, as Mr. Price declared, the internal affairs of the U.N. are-no business of the sub- committee.

Well, I've been in Tel ‘Aviv for two weeks now and, from what I've seen and heard so far, you understated the case. For instance: Yesterday morning, an old friend named Emanuel Sachs telephoned and invited me to spend the day with him at hie house in a suburb named Ramath Gan. en I told a taxi driver where I wanted to go, he asked who I wanted to see there.
