PAGE TEN THE CANADIAN STATESMAN BOWMANVTLLE. ONTARTO THURSDAY. NoV. IOth. IU'i. Pattern for'Universal Peace ltests on Palestine Solution Herbert A. Mowat'Declares Speaking at the annual banquet of the Bawmanvilîe Canadian Le- gian, the evening of Remembrance Day, Herbent A. Mowat, Assis- tant ta the Chairman ai the World CaMmittee Fan Palestine, told bis Camnrades-in-arms much ai the background oi the Palestine Pnob- lem whicb is naw placed befone the United Nations fon solution. Mn. Mowat, a vetenan oi World War I, is a Canadian who for ma- ny years bas taken a leading part lu fixing public attention upon this vitally important question. He spoke mainhy on the points rais- ed in the brief he prepared for submission ta the United Nations Assembly at Lake Success, New York, at its prçsent session. Limited Revlew j It is difficult indeed ta reduce to simple terras and coniined space ail that Mn. Mowat said dur- ing an bour and a bh aio superb onatony in wbich be unfolded the historie, economic and paitical as- pects oi the pnoblem. This wbole question bas not made an impact upon the public mind in free de- mocracies commensunate with its importance in aur civilization past and present. Now we bave came ta a time when this question alone, the Palestine Pnoblem, may be the dcciding point in the world trend tomormow. Mr. Mawat said if statesmen can solve this vital pmablemn it may w-cil mean the sa- vation and triumph ai the Unit- cd Nations. Mn.

PECONI, Proprietor. bis exposition by affinming that the age ai absolute national sav- emeignty is aven; but the age ai in- ternational arder under political instruments pawerful enough ta egulate the relations ai nations and compose their compcting de- sires, is nat yet bonn: The age in which justice is ta be achieved, and yet fneedom maintained, by a wise reguhatian ai the complex ec- anomic interdependence ai mod- ern man, is being esisted by forc: es which hope it neyer wili be bamn. He continued: "Wbat is boiling up in the United Nations is cvi- dence that nations stihi want ta enhance their own power and in- fluence and are willing ta make a bunnt offering ai absohute na- tional saveneiganty which ahane is the sacrifice essential for interna- tional justice and wonld peace. He rehated these observations ta the case in Palestine and affirmed that we shall go up or down in modern civilization according ta decisions taken now. Balfour Declanation The main pietune projected by the speaker was the case of the Jewish people who weme given as- surance under the Balfour Dec- aation duning Wold War I, that Palestine shobild ;6ecome a nation- al home for Jews. That Declara- tion xvas founded upon the pnin- ciple ai justice wbich for centuries bas been dcnied this truhy great race. For the past 30 years Bnit-1 ain bas beld the mandate for the FAT Palestine area. Arab resistance and internai turmoil has finally forced Britain ta resign this whole problem ta the United Nations. They must find and apply a solu- tion. .Title right ta this Holy Land goes back inta antîquity and rests with the Hebrew race which was dispersed by imperial canquest. They lost their savereignty and have neyer regained it. The Bal- four Declaratian really saught ta restore it. The Arabs wbo now dlaim title right today in actual fact neyer developed an Arab state in Palestine. They were sub- ject ta the suzerainty af the Turks until set free by the victariaus traops af Lord Allenby in .1917. Prosperity Restored In fact the respansible Arabs bailed the Balfour Declaratian with eager appraval at the time it was promulgated. But since then a change took place. The Jews came home to Palestine under the British mandate and soon made the desert bloom, brought modemn camiorts and cultural standards, demonstrated the arts ai produc- tion, raised the wage structure, Then came resistance from Arab rulers. The Arab bierarcby with a re- gime founded upan serfdom saw that these Jewish improvements would undermine their authority. Thus began the pan-Arab resis- tance that naw carnies into the United Nations. Every solution sa fan advanced, no matter bow rea- sontable, bas been resisted by the Arabs who threaten that every drap ai Arab biood wili be shed before bowing ta anytbing that would restore a measure of Jewish sovereignty. Race Deprlved The essential point in determin- ing justice for the Jews is ta cm- phasize their lack of sovereignty. For centuries they have bad no country. We speak af Polish Jiews, German Jews, American Jews and so forth but they have neyer had ambassadors or con- suls of their own who could speak for thcm ta protect their human rights in their awn name. Given a 'homeland in Palestine they could resume that right as a sov- eneign people. And no race has contributed more in culture, sci- ence, art, music, than the Jews. As a matter of essential Justice the wbole pnoblem when viewed in this light seems sa simple. And it bas been reduced ta this simple premise by two Commissions dur- ing the past few years. The joint British-American Commission de- ciared unanimously for untram- meied admission of Jews ta Pal- estine ta establish their own sov- ereign state. The United Nations Commission declared overwhelm- ingly far the partition af Pales- tine into two states, Jewish and Arab, each with savereign inde- pendence. Arabs Baek Hitler The spokesman for the Arahs at the United Nations declincd any solution whatsoever save anc 0v- erriding Arab state in which the Jews would remain a subi ect pea- ple. It should be noted that be spake for the Arab Grand Mufti and that this same Grand Mufti was Hitler's right hand man in bis broadcasts during the late war promising ruthless pérsecution of Jews. Again the threat ai Arab war was put forth in this United Nations speech. The above just about sums Up the essentials in the Palestine Problem. naw befone the United Nations. As will be seen fmom Mr. Mowat's autline, if justice cannot be wrung out of this situa- tion, what hope have we that any other world injustice can be car- M~cted. Wbat hope is there in the survivai ai the United Nations? Canada Intervenes Fontunately little point was made in the United Nations.by the Russian delegates on the ecan- amic aspects of the prablem as re- lated ta the question ai ail. Mn. Mowat dealt at same length with this factar. He told ai the vital neccssity ai Britain in a 75 per cent dependence on the ail resour- ces ai the middle east against a secontiary interest oi the United States and the problematicai one nf Rusia. arh. rnor..A il of il e: ti ei a p: ti t] ir hi bi 'n 31 le gi PE w 98 sil ti te Burkeion Couple Mark 641h Anniversary NIr. and Mrs. James *McLaughlin of Burketon, who were honored by their family and friends, November 14th, the occasion of their 64th wedding anniversary.
