J The United States, pledged to de fend anyone attacked, was put ' squarely on the spot by the Israeli attack, and just before the presi- dential ' election when Mr. Eisen hower would have liked things to ' remain peaceful at least for an- ; other week. There was strong Jew . ish sentiment, especially in .New York, against helping' Egypt,' the attacked. V;,v?. s M;'l!,;.. ... ' . Meanwhile there was the- inevi table speculation that British in- fluences had not frowned' on. the Israeli attack, r plans for- it, even ' though this would not include the' government itself. Under Britain's 'evacuation agreement it was stat ed plainly ; that British soldiers could re-enter Jthc Canal "Zone In ' the event qf enny -action against : .Clearly, the British could ' use Israel's assault as an excuse for re-enteringt the CanarZone. The Israelis, of$ course, were not un aware of this When they opened the battle.

As far a the military strength t of the Arabs and Israelis is con Vcprneij, Israel holds the edge over any Arab . country and probably: equal power with all the Arab States combined. As the German General' Staff concluded1 in 1914, . Israel faced the necessity of mobi ' liaing first, striking at one enemy and then .another, in order not to be pressed on all sides simultane ously. '- ' .. And, Israelis knew that time was on the side of the Arabs. . There are only 1,700,000 Israelis. The Arabs were arming as fast as they could which wasn't too fast. But their eventual determination -. to drive Israel out of the East could not be disregarded. . : ' Therefore, when the Egyptians i angered Britain and weakened their n traditional alliance with the West ' and when Russia became '.heavily involved in 'satellite countries,' the timing for Israel seemed right. : Maybe they could get by with it, fthe Israelis concluded., "-.But it was a reckless ' gamble. INff one could be sure what the Brit- ish Government would do. No one a ebuld be sure what the United 1 n States-Pledged to help an attacked state in the Middle East would do. Or Russia no one was sure what steps the Russians might take.

Advice Given To Piit Best Foot Forward .."In order to have, shoe hygiene, you must have foot hygiene," says Mary Em Lee, Extension clothing specialist alt State College. A per son's shoes are .his most important accessory, but your health depends more on them for comfort, than as an accessory..!' -i. i When you get ready to buy shoes, Miss Lee says to "put your best foot forward" and consider: 1. Your own feet first. , , 2. Your present wardrobe. : .3.. Latest ' fashions' only when they are kind to your feet. - " 4. The best in quality construc tion that you can afford. 5. The shoe that suits your age. 6. Wearing your most comfort able shoe for comparison when you khoe shop, if ' , 7. Having your feet measured every time while standing feet of growing children change quickly. ; 8. Never substituting a site have both' feet measured, and fit the larger foot ; ' : v 9., Asking . for shoes with kid leather lining for longer wear and mere comfort. 10. Not buying shoes that will be hard to match with other clothes. There are three basic rules for fitting,' according "toMiss Lee.' i Shoes should have kwfteels, m '. pressure on waist of foot, and plen ty of toe room. Almost, ajl ,pre8 ent day manufacturers violate these three .rules, explains Miss Lee,' since most shoes have pointed toes and too many have high heels, thus crowding the toes and causing met atarsal bones to hurt, tiring feet and causing fallen arches. 1 High school girls, ' she says, should put off wearing hign ieels as long as possible, because low, flat heels today make stronger, healthier feet for 'tomorrow.
