Between You And Me By Boris Smolar {Copyright, 1955 JTA) "AlOMXO AC1E" 8IDUNES: Tlifi ""Atom-tor-Peace" conference, which is now taking place in Geneva, has lifted the curtain on Jewish •dentists In Soviet Russia . . Since World War n, when IMoscow began to eliminate Jew* from its foreign service and other positions ot importance. Jewish names were completely missing from the lists of Soviet delegations abroad . Now, however, about two dozen such names appear among the Soviet scientists who have submitted important papers oh nuclear energy to the Geneva parley This is the first time in many years that the Moscow government has included Jews on an important delegation sent abroad . . .And no wonder . . . Glancing through the papers submitted by these Jews at Geneva, one must come to the conclusion that Jewish scientists in Russia played a major role in advancing nuclear science in their country . . . Thus, it seems that without their participation in the Geneva d e l i b e r a t i o n s , Moscow would not have been in a position to make an impressive showing . . . The names of the Jewish scientists were hitherto not ' known at aU In the Jewish world . . . There to S. 2. Bokrtein and S. M. Felnberg; I. L Gurevich and P. E. Nemirovsky; F. L. Shapiro and 1 M. Frank; S. V. Hlrschfield and P. I. Dolin; D. F. Zaret»ky and D. E. Grodzensky . . . There are also M. I. Pevzner and P. E. Spivaek; M. Y. Kate and B. G. Yerusallmsy; V. A. Baum and B. V. Ershler; G. A. Badt and N. Bach: A. P. VinoRradov and A. AShlick , . . And n number of others . . . Their papers deal with all phases of atomic science . . . One wonders wh:' Jewish writers and Cither intellectuals have "disappeared" in Russia nnd why :ill Jewish cultural institutions there

declining as a result ol te(.'hno!o£;lcal advances, according to an article bj J. .S. Raleigh in the current issue of Middle Eastern Affairs, publication of tho Council for Middle Eastern Affairs. Tho article voiced doubt o! the efficiacy of the "Nothcrn Tier" concept of regional defense which, the writer said, so far has proved more of a liability than an asset to the free world and to Middle Eastern stability. The advent of the air age, he said, has "caused a sharp decline in tho importance of the classical waterways and the strongpolnts which guard them," such as the Suez Canal and Aden. Other the region itself, the strategic value of the v a r i o u s routes and strongpoints has become more elastic, and while the area as a whole remains an essential link in any global air communications network, "Its Importance Is slowly declining with the ever-expanding flying range of both military and transportation planes."
