Perhaps never since Stalin canie to power has the free world had mch an opportunity of dealing with soviet Russia as it has today. Within the past few months, the iniprcssiie I front of friends that Kliruscliev and Bulganin built from Indonesia to Yugoslavia has exaporated. Tliey had

Raw materials can be processed free of duty and other taxation until they leave for their destinations. This processing of goods has been talked about by the Moi-tier Bay planners. too. and that. of course, would mean an eco- nomic expansion of great propor- tions.

Bad For UNESCO

The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization has come in for a lot of criticism in recent years from people who won- dcr iihethcr the work it does is worth all the money it costs. There have been rumours. too, that the Soviet Union and other Communist countries haw been using the or- ganization for the purpose of spread- ing political propaganda in the so- called ”neutralist" states of Asia and Africa. A late report from New Delhi. where a meeting "of UNESCO has been under way for several days, would seem to confirm these rum- ours. It certainly will not make the critics any less voluble in their com-

The Suez Canal being an liner- natioual waterway In which, by in- ternational conventluu. the ships of all nations are guaranteed equal rights of passage, Egypt's denial i of passage to Israeli ships was on illegal Ind hostile act.
