Lebanon today : is the world‘s smallest and _ newest Republic. With only about a million inhabiâ€" tants, it appears to have finally won its freedom from the French mandate and to be weltalong the road toward taking its part as a completely free and independent country. _ Like its friendly and larger neighbor, Syria, which has shared progress toward indepenâ€" dence with Lebanon, this country is exceedingly proud of its new status. Both in Lebanon and Syria, howâ€" ever, one sorry examples of the mnn::gn which large naâ€" tions charged with a mandate come to consider their temporary trust as though it were a permanent colâ€" ony. ‘France was given the manâ€" date over Lebanon and Syria after World: War I and these countries were promised their independence for their support of the United Nations cause during World War II. When the time came to reâ€" deem that promise, however,: the French objected to the complete relinquishment of their special poâ€" sition in the two countries. As a result, in both Syria and Lebanon the ° armed forces of France endeavored to reestablish French authority by force of arms. Many Lebanese and Sytians were ruthlessly killed. To make matters worse, some of the lendâ€" lease supplies from America to France were used"!t:i the French troops to bomb and killâ€"the people of these two freedomâ€"sceking reâ€" publics. Tools intended to strengthâ€" en the four freedoms in the world were misused by one of the Big Five to strangle the rights of free choice in Lebanon and Syria. Hapâ€" pily, right triumphed over might, and while some French troops maintain positions in Beirut nd‘ Damascus,.it now appears that they may soon be withdrawn. In Daâ€" maseus, however, this summer the French fired great shells into the centre of the city and wrecked the parliament building, several hotels and business blocks, and even did damage to the Amicrican embassy. A study of the history of Lebanon and Syria for the past 30 years provides strong evidence to conâ€" demn the soâ€"called "mandate sysâ€" tem" as a device for maintaining peace and obtaining justice. The Problem of Palestine. Palestine is the Holy Land held sacred alike by Christians, Jews, and Mohammedans. Today it is the center of a bitter and.violent controversy revolving around the number of Jews to be admitted as residents of. Palestine and the question of whether the country is to be established as a separate and independent Jewish state. tinn, Jewish, and Arab leaders alike while British tanks and comâ€" mand cars roamed the streets and For the better part of two feverâ€" ish days, our committée . took transcribed testimony from Chrisâ€" (Continued from page 1) all, what is called "the Palestine question" appears to be one of the most difficult for which to evolve a satisfactory solution of any of the many knotty problems which remain to plague the world.

The company offered the $4.00 and $2.00, retroâ€" active toâ€" May 9, 1945.â€" Similar increases were offered to Chicago local and long line operators and were accepted by them. Also, many like increases for traffic employes in other parts of the country have been ordered by the telephone commission and its decisions have, in general, been accepted in good grace by both the unions and the companies. ; (rigs Arabs of the area oppose it. All in The Iilinois Telephone Traffic union, however,. refused to agree and. the case was referred to the telephone commission to decide. A detailed hearing of all the issues involved was held Aug. 14, 1945. Due to the sudden termination of the war, the commission had to change its procedure and it asked both the union and the company jointly to ~decide the basis on which the case should be settled. As a result of this request, it was agreed that the commission should decide the issue according to the wartime rules with the permission to reopen further wage negotiaâ€" tions within sixty days. F .~ Up to this time, all of the rules were followed and the entire matâ€" ter was being handled in the orâ€" derly way provided by the governâ€" ment through the telephone comâ€" mission. â€" However, on Oct. 18 the union, ghead of any decisian of the commission, filed its notice of intention to strike if its demands were not met. . Late last week, the commission rendered its decision. It provided that all operators and other cenâ€" tral office employes should receive increases of $4.00 per week except for one grouping of small towns, which should‘ receive $5.00. The commission further provided that the length of time normally taken to reach maximum salaries should be reduced. ‘The commission‘s deâ€" cision provides increases of $2.00 for certain clerical groups and $3 for certain other clerical groups outside the central â€"office with corresponding reductions in length of time in which to reach maxiâ€" mum salaries. ~ The company accepts this deâ€" cision and is ready to put the inâ€" creases into effect and to make the retroactive payments back to May 9, 1945, as promptly as posâ€" sible. Under the commission‘s decisâ€" ion~all operators and other cenâ€" tral office employes will receive at least $4.00 per week increase for‘a fiveâ€"day week.
