WOJAC held its third international conference here in Washington at the Omni Shoreham Hotel. I had the privilege of meeting with representatives of that organization at that time. and I was struck by their commitment to alleviating the plight of those less fortunate than themselves. A great deal of attention is legitimately given to the severe problems afflicting the Arab refugees of the series of Middle Eastern wars. It Is clear that peace will only come to that troubled area when these Arab refugees are treated fairly and an overall political solution in the area must deal with this. The representatives of WOJAC also point out that an overall settlement must also look to the interests of those Jews left behind in Arab countries. and their questions of compensation for those forceably resettled because of the Middle Eastern war should apply equally to Arabs who fled what is now Israel. and Jews forced to flee Arab countries.
