"J"he State Department displayed
justifiable caution in refus-
ing to meet with leaders of the
anti-Zionist American Council for
Judaism on the question- of de-
fining the concept “Jewish Peo-
ple.” However, the Department
was trapped into writing a letter
on this subject to the council’s
annual meeting, which shows
that, in the future, they should
be even more cautious when
dealing with Council for Judaism
leaders.
It is true that the letter which
Assistant Secretary of State
Phillips Talbot wrote to the
Council is not the kind the anti-
Zionist group expected and
this is probably the reason why
they sought a personal discussion
in the State Department. In fact,
tthe Council did not make public
the Council did not make public
chose to present it only in part,
concealing the fact that it was,
rebuffed by the State Depart-'
menl.
Nevertheless, the State De-
partment unwittingly permitted
itself to be dragged into corre-
spondence on such a delicate
subject as peoplehood which, in
the Jewish case, has various defi-
nitions.
To the great majority of the
Jews, Jewish peoplehood means
helping each other when in need
of aid, even if they live in dif-
ferent countries. American. Jews
are helping not only Israel but
also Jewish communities in other
countries. And this is true not
only with regard to the United
Jewish Appeal and the Joint
Distribution Committee, whose
aid is of a philanthropic nature,
but also with organizations like
the American Jewish 'Committee
and B’nai B’rith which maintain
offices abroad for the purpose of
protecting Jewish rights every-
where. This is especially true
now in the case of the united
front which American Jewry
has established to fight for Jew-
ish cultural and religious rights
in the Soviet Union — a fight __ _______ v

understands and endorses. Sir Anthony Eden, then the

should have been obvious to the * ? t £ ch*pt*rS he also
State Department that, no matter ^avipd Ben-Gurion
what it may say. its letter would f ., io. France on the
eve of the Sinai campaign and
Nasser.
The charges against Mr. Dulles
are made by Herman Finer, pro-
fessor of political science at the
University of Chicago, in an epic
book, "Dulles Over Suez" just
published by Quadrangle Books,
Iric.
J'he author, who has written
22 other serious books and who
cannot be lightly dismissed, con-
siders Dulles as an architect of
disaster who mishandled the
Suez affair. He believes that, by
bringing England, France and
Israel to their knees, Dulles un-
dermined the West’s position
and nearly wrecked the entire
Western alliarice. Also that, by
backing Nasser in the Suez cri-
sis, Dulles contributed to Soviet
strength and audacity, and per-
AUtted himself to be outbleffed
by fear of Russian power.
He lays General de Gaulle's
distrust of America directly at
the door of Dulles's Suez policy.
He also attributes the demands
of our allies for their own atomic
weapons to the Suez debacle
brought about by Dulles. He
brings out a picture of Dulles as
a statesman who was short-
sighted, weak when he should
have been strong, and savage
when he should have been con-
ciliatory. He considers Dulles'
policy on the Suez affair as care-
less and abysmally wrong in
conception and application.
How different the world would
have looked today if the Nasser
regime would have toppled and'
Moscow would have had no in-
fluence in the Middle East? Prof.
Finer believes that the price has
not yet been paid for Dulles’
deficiency of nerve in not stand-
ing fast at the Suez brink created
by Nasser and Moscow.
In gathering material for his
Dulles Over Suez,” Prof. Finer
interviewed American, British,
French and Israeli leaders who
held top offices in their countries
in 1956 during the Suez crisis.
They included President Eisen-
be utilized by the Council for
Judaism for propaganda pur-
poses.
On the other hand, c r edit
should be given to the State De-
partment for not depending on
the Council for Judaism and
itself issuing the full text of its
letter to the Council, from which
it could be seen that the Council
leaders are not welcomed in the
State Department for such dis-
cussions.

The United States policy on
the Suez Canal during the Sinai
campaign of 1956 has now sud-
denly become a matter of world-
wide discussion, due to charges
leveled against the Secretary of
State John Foster Dulles. Sec-
retary Dulles, it will be remem-
bered, backed Nasser at that
time and forced Britain, France
and Israel to withdraw t n e i r
troops just when they were about
to reach the Suez Canal and
bring about the downfall of
coordinated his plans with those
of France, which were later co-
ordinated secretly also with Eng-
land.
. His book is based on docu-
mentary evidence and on source
documents, which make the vol-
ume a basic book on American
policy in the Middle East during
the Eisenhower Administration.
