JERUSALEM I—On the world’s
strangest battlefront, it's winter
plowing time, and the plowman
carries a gun.
On both sides of the touchy Is-
raeli-Jordan frontier through the
Samarian and Judean hills, plow-
men are cutting their furrows
right up to the border line.
On hill crests and in valleys be-
hind them are soldiers in jeeps,
with automatic arms and mortars.
When a plowman steps across
the line, firing often starts.
On both sides plowmen have
given their lives for a few more
feet of soil. Some of the soldiers
have, died too. Much the same
thing* is happening along Israel's
frontiers with Egypt and with
Syria.
This is the fragile truce in the
Middle-East war where six years
of armistice have not brought

statesmanlike restraint in this re-
spect.”
In the keynote address, NAM
