I am happy that my party took this position. In the brief 4 years of their existence. the Israelis have made tremendous progress. You must go into the immigrant villages. as we did. to see the enormous difficulties which confront the State of Israel in resettling the hundreds of thousands of refugees who have come to this little country from all parts of the globe. Yet. despite these manifold problems. when you go from the immigrant camps to the army training fields. you see how speedily the refugees are transformed into strong and stalwart men and women ready to defend their freedom and prepared to make a strong stand for a free world in the Near East. On the basis of my observation I continue in my belief that Israel is an outpost of American strength and influence in the Near East. and I trust that we shall continue to help Israel overcome its critical economic problems.
