H Bender, head of a group named considerable criticism in recent

the Teamsters, pledged Monday a that too, is something that must
effect among the Asians and also
among the Arabs themselves. This
juicy issue was snatched from
their hands just when they thought
they had the West over a barrel.
For Nasser-
1. It focused world attention on
him as the dominant figure of the
Arab world by placing stress on
leaving a settlement primarily to
the Arabs themselves. If Western
troops are withdrawn, as expect-
ed, it is likely to put extreme po-
litical pressure on the pro-West-
ern gorevnments of Jordan and
Lebanon to line up with Nasser
2. It increased chances for huge
outside economic aid for the Mid-
dle East on the Arabs’ own terms
Actually, the biggest winner
may turn out to be the U. N. it-
self. If the Arab formula succeeds
in easing tension, the Assembly
can claim credit for adopting e
plan and Secretary General Dag
Hammarskjold can claim credit
for putting it into effect.
Youth Learns to Drive Car

their 12-year-old son, Gilman
Roger, can drive a car.

The father told police he
believed his son had been ab-
ducted because the boy had
never driven a car.
The mystery deepened
when a note in the boy's
handwriting was found in the
boy’s bedroom.
"If you want your boy, put
$10,000 under a table in the
nearest park within 72 hours.
The table will be marked with
a blue square,” it said.
