n l * parts — Christian and Moslem, b No future policy of program can n be successful unless it is based 8 on the principle of full and equal n partnership and accord of these '■ two parts. e Neither side must dominate the •- other Neither must take the other for granted. Both must feel that they have an equal stake in the country, that they equally belong to it. If th|S principle is translated 1 into action in the economic, so- ’ cial, cultural, political and admin- ’ istrative fields, nothing can en-

danger the internal cohesion of Lebanon. Lebanese relations with her sister Arab states must be based upon respect for the independence and territorial integrity of Lebanon. The Arab states, in fact; have always been anxious to express this respect. This is evident from the covenant of the Arab League, repeated declarations of (U.A.R. President Gamal Abdel) Nasser and recent statenients by the Republic of Iraq. On the other hand Lebanon must not allow itself to be used by foreign powers as e lever to widen differences between the Arab states nor must it became a bridgehead for indirect pressure or direct aggression against any sister Arab state.

Lebanon has nothing to fear from the united Arab world. Apart from consideration of the sentiment and from security against possible Israeli expansion, it is in the vital interest of Lebanon, whose economy depends on transit, trade and oil revenues and contracts, to have the closest ahd friendliest relations with the Arab countries. Future policy most suited for Lebanon in the East-West struggle is In fact Lebanon’s traditional policy, which dates back to the inception of the country’s independence in 1943. This policy Is one of friendship to all, and of neutrality between the great power blocs. By neutrality is meant refusal to be drawn into the whole complex or direct or indirect military commitments

to either bloc by the adoption of doctrine. Joining of pacts, granting of bases or recognition of preferential status. This,.of course, does not mean Lebanon should not cooperate with the sister Arab states in taking measures for regional security as indicated in the Arab security pact. No one can predict the future but if one is talking of what is necessary and desirable, then (Lebanese President C a m i 1 1e) Chamoun must resign immediately and the foreign American occupation must cease forthwith. No useful political step can be taken so long as these two stumbling blocks remain. The brave man is only a man
