Drastic Operation Necessary
by Daniel Bishop, St. Louis Star-Times
Palestine Division
For once the United States and Russia are on the same side on a United Nations proposal. The thing they are in agreement about is the plan of the United Nations special committee on Palestine for the division of the Holy Land.
Not only does the plan include a territorial division but it contains a sub-plan for allowing 150,000 displaced European Jews to enter the country. The actual lines of division give the Jews the southern portion of Palestine and most of the west coast on the Mediterranean sea. Also included is a small area of land surrounding the Sea of Galilee on the Jordan river.
The Arabs will receive the area west of the Dead sea except the west central coastal area. The cities of Nazareth and Jerusalem are included in the Arab territory. Some United States delegates have recommended that Jaffa, a west coast city predominately Arab, be given to that faction.
The Arabs have threatened force if the division is made. The threat is not considered too seriously because 100,000 British troops still remain in Palestine. Although many British feel that they should get out of Palestine as soon as possible, they may be persuaded to stay until the United Nations can provide some form of police regulation.
When the plan for partitioning is put in effect it should solve the twin problems of Arab-Jewish disputes an the lack of a national home for the Jewish people.

City Parking Lot
Kansas cities which fail to meet the need for parking space face decentralization on their downtown districts. This fact was pointed out at a recent meeting of real estate dealers.
Lawrence just lets the problem handle itself by allowing double-parking. But this practice only begets trouble of its own.
On a recent Saturday afternoon between 5 and 5:30 p.m., doubleparked cars backed up traffic across the intersection at Massachusetts and Ninth steets. This happened twice within 10 minutes. Traffic both ways across the intersection was blocked because of double parking.
A count of double-parked cars later on the same evening showed 27 cars in two blocks on Massachusetts street alone. Twelve cars were double parked in the 800 block and 15 more in the 700 block.
Less than two blocks away from all these double-parked cars is a large vacant lot. This empty space on the east side of Vermont street
Credit For Jazz
Dear Editor,
Thanks to the courageous letter-writer who had such a good word for the "Jazz at the Philharmonic" concert. However, the letter-writer is a little misinformed as to who is actually responsible for bringing Norman Granz to the University.
As early as last August Charles Johnson, University dance manager, tried to get the School of Fine Arts to contract the Granz organization as a part of the regularly scheduled concert series. As the series was completely outlined at that time, a further effort was made by Johnson to bring Granz as an extra attraction.
Upon refusal by the School of Fine Arts, Johnson then persuaded the Union Activities to sponsor the concert as a part of their services to students. Thus the idea of bringing "Jazz at the Philharmonic" to the University originated with the University dance manager and not with the Union Activities. Let credit fall where it is due.

in the 800 block could easily be transformed into a city parking lot. It would take care of the parking of cars close enough to the business district so as not to inconvenience shoppers.
Kansas City, Kan., has gone ahead with a program of parking lots in the business district. Lawrence can certainly afford to put in a least one lot to relieve the inconvenience and traffic danger of double-parking.
