Mr. President. the Vienna governments capitulation to Arab terrorists. closing the borders of Austria to Jewish emigrants from the Soviet Union en route to Israel. is terribly distressing. Austria has yielded to iressure and so invites greater pressure. if not upon herself. then upon other nations. No fire can be extinguished by pouring more fuel upon it. The Austrian decision beckons further violence in Europe. and discourages moderation on both sides of the ArabIsrael dispute. It was an act of weakness in a crisis which called for strength. As long as Austria offered itself as a way station to freedom for Jews leaving Russia. it earned the respect and gratitude of free men everywhere.
