Main Efforts To Make Japan Democratic
Washington, Nov. 21. Mr Joseph Grew, former United States Ambassador to Japan, said on Monday that the International Christian University is the key to efforts to democratise Japan.
In a letter to the Washington Star, Mr Grew: said the Allied occupation has done its best to indoctrinate Japanese "but we must depend more and more on

the major voluntary prae grammes already undertaken in Japan is the building at Mitaka of the International Christian

Washington, Nov. 21.
Mr Abba Eban, Israeli Ambassador to the United States, today accused the Arab states of a "reprehensible” refusal to make peace with Israel.
He told a National Press Club luncheon here that all peoples of the Middle East were victims of this refusal, "which reacts with special cruelty and callousness on the fate of Arab refugees."
Mr Eban declared that Israel would fight to preserve its democratic institutions from invasion or subversion.
It would be quite unrealistic to think of Israel agreeing to any major substantive alteration of her territorial and demographic structure.
"The Arab states continue to refuse any contact with Israel for the purpose of negotiating a final settlement of all out- standing questions," Mr Eban said.
He accused most of the Arab states, through the Arab League,
pressure of bringing to bear against any individual which tried Arab government to reach a separate settlement. "The refusal of the Arab states to conclude 3 final peace settlement with Israel constitutes a
the violation of (United Nations) Charter," he declared.
"This policy is especially reprehensible at a time of inter- national tension, when all governments should-be-con- cerned to contribute, as far as they can, to the elimination of tensions and conflicts."
То their original offence of making war in 1948 the. Arab states now add the offence of refusing peace, Mr Eban con- tinued.
