Show n The Paper That Dares To Take A Stand November 6, 1975 The Utah Independent Page 9 that for President Sadat, the LIBERTY LINES Sinai and the Arabs By Robert M. Bartell 5 WASHINGTON, D.C. (Liberty Lobby News Service)-- As could be expected the Arab world is entertaining considerable doubts about the recent Sinai pact. Sadat of Egypt is putting on a good public face, but the rumblings out of Syria, Lebanon and of course the Palestinian camp are that the pact will prove an obstacle to peace rather than a step toward it. Outside of Egypt itself, Sinai agreement critics contend that Egypt has been broken out of the united Arab front against Israel. They fear the Egyptians will no longer concern themselves with the fate of the Palestinians, which is at the heart of the Arab conflict with Israel. The critics note that Secretary of State Henry Kissinger promised Israel billions of dollars worth of advanced weapons and it will be a long time-espec- in ially view of the coming American elections-befo- re any Secre- tary of State or Administration will think of interrupting the new flow of weapons, as a means of persuading Is- rael to make further withdrawals from occupied Arab territories. v One Palestinian is reported to have said, You are doing what you always did. You say that you are f ft making Israel strong because only a strong Israel can make concessions. But the opposite is true. How are you going to prod them now? You have made them immune to your pressure for the next 10 years. In a recent New York Times article by Henry Tanner, the theory is advanced -- i fci most important reason for wanting the Sinai agreement was that he'thought, and still thinks, that it will lead to direct American involvement in the Mideast, on the Arab side as well as the Israeli. If hostilities do break out in the Mideast, the theory may prove to be as fallacious as the Israeli lobby is powerful. The Times article also says that most critics agree it would have been a far better policy for the U.S. to have pushed for a final settlement, including Israeli withdrawal 7 to the lines, in return for a real peace accord. The article goes on, Informed diplomats here (in Beirut, Lebanon) report that this actually was the approach chosen by Arabists in the U.S. government earlier this summer, but it was dropped as politically unfeasible because of expected opposition from Israels supporters in Congress. pre-196- thats an amazing statement for the New York Times to print. What they n appear to endorse is the Now, well-know- but politely-ignorestranglehold the Israeli lobby has on the U.S. Congress. Another quiet development stirring misgivings in the Mideast is that the U.S. has quietly shipped the Cobra helicopter gunship to Israel for the first time. Any hope for an accord with Syria is going to involve another Kissinger giveaway. And a Syrian diplomat recently reported that Kissinger did tell President Assad of Syria that the U.S. would try to get something d for Syria, but that he couldnt promise. Why not?

We should ask the question, Who supports PBC? According to the Salt Lake Tribune the question was asked of Ted Howard, codirector of PBC.

At the beginning of that depression the national debt was, about $16 billion. It is now $600 billion over half a trillion, and rising at a very steep rate. To recapitulate, the first depression was cured very quickly by maintaining the gold standard, flexibility in the price-wag- e structure and the policy of debt reduction. In contrast, the Great Depression was never cured and lasted on and on because we deserted, the gold standard, -- strucsubstituted rigidity for flexibility in the wage-pric- e ture, and inaugurated a policy of extravagant spending rather than economy and saving. We no longer sought to decrease our national debt but gleefully built it higher and higher as the value of the dollar sank lower and lower. We have taken leave from our reason and are hurtling into runaway inflation with the loss of accumulated wealth of generations and a degree of misery and suffering that the American people have never known.
