...early leaders of Communism (Trotsky, Zinoviev, Kamenev, Litvinoff and Kaganovich) were Jews, but Stalin later made Jewish "cosmopolitanism" a dangerous charge. Russia competed with the U.S. to be the first to recognize the infant Israeli state in 1948-only to switch later to all-out support of the Arab quarrel against Israel. Today the 3,000,000 Jews who still live in Russia are warned to merge themselves completely in Soviet society (while still carrying documents designating them as Jews) and are discouraged from their own cultural identity. In recent months the world Jewish press has been full of anxious...
...would be very much present in spirit. The U.S. is, as the Russians charge, increasing its diplomatic activity in North Africa-not against the French, but in the interest of seeing that events get no further out of hand.

...Host Nkrumah shuttled back and forth between his Christiansborg Castle* and Accra's flag-draped airport to welcome delegates. As cannons boomed, planes disgorged the Foreign Ministers of Libya, Tunisia and the Sudan. Ethiopia's Emperor Haile Selassie sent his third son, Prince Sahle Selassie. The United Arab Federation's Foreign Minister, Mahmoud Fawzi, deplaned explaining that only ''very pressing and unforeseen circumstances" (i.e., an imminent trip to Moscow) prevented President Nasser himself from coming...
...time the Moroccan Foreign Minister arrived that night, Accra had a full house. It was a little disappointing that only one chief of state had shown, but with the exception of South Africa-which would not come unless colonial powers were invited-all of Africa's independent states, Arab and black, were on hand...
