Zionist Delegate To UN Applauds Big Power Unity

Calling the present agreement over Palestine "the solitary break in the United Nations' state of paralysis," Lionel Gelber, Jewish Agency adviser to the U.N. analyzed last night the contemporary Zionist picture. Specking in Paine Hall to the Harvard Zionist Society, he declared the problem a simple one, adding that "the key lies in London, Wasllington, and Moscow."

The Zionist puller of strings at Lake Success said that a Russian-American deadlock would be disastrous to the demoralized Jews fleeing to Palestine.

Gelber Professional Diploma

A swarthy, Canadian Rhodes Scholar, Gelber is a professional diplomat as well as an ex-professor. After teaching international relations at the University of Toronto, he joined the Royal Canadian Air Force in 1943, and worked in what he call "ricochet political warfare," before taking his present job.

Describing the tangle of U.N. committees that the partition proposals had to penetrate, Gelber called the present situation intricate and serious. He proposed a combination of Haganah and major power forces to protect Palestine during the dangerous interim period.

Vested interests

"The Arabs have vested interest in a static society," he declared, adding he had come to the conclusion that the Arab and Jewish societies are incompatible, and that partition is necessary.

Gelber told his small audeince that "If the Jews want to do anything in Palestine, they must be masters in their own home," and proposed that the modern, Jewish part of Jerusalem go to the Zionists in the partition."
