It contrasts competitive historical patterns with the Near East Foundation’s neighborly-helpfulness model and examines how European and patriarchal social structures interact in the Arab-speaking world after World War I. It also connects modern transportation to shifting livelihoods, arguing that agricultural support and trade-focused development can reduce turmoil and stabilize the

Secretary  \nNeAR EAST FoUNDATION  \n30  \nZ  \n3ox441  \nAS WEglance back through the pages of human history,so vividly illustratedin the folk lore,colorful feast days,ruined temples and ancient citieslaid bare by the excavator's spade,we find that man is curiously competitive.If in primitive society there was not enough for all,the strong survivedand the weakling perished;strong tribes drove weaker tribes out of the fertilevalleys;and later so-called civilized nations throughout the weary centuriesstrugled for material gain through diplomacy,commerce and war.Eventually,the age of competitive empire building came to its natural climax in the last greatwar.  \nNear East Foundation represents the antithesis of all this.Its work is anexperiment in neighborly helpfulness-an attempt to substitute confdence andgood will for the war-breeding traditions of fear,jealousy and hate.It was under-takenin the Near East because,immediately following the great war,that sectionof the world presented a favorable environment for the undertaking.  \nLet us make an efort to understand the problem as a whole before we attemptto appraise the value of our individual projects.In the Near East two social structures meet and blend;namely,the European and the patriarchal.The Arabicspeaking world is just emerging from ageold tribal restrictions.Iraq is a goodexample,and we can learn at least one important lesson from a shortIRAQ airplane fight above its capital city,Baghdad,and the surroundingcountry.  \nLying far below are the sacred Moslem cities of Kerbela,Nejefand Kazemain,with their glittering domes,symbolizing the ancient traditions and fanatical ex-cesses that are a part of the political mosaic.Primitive Kurdish encampmentsdotting the hilsides remind one of the jealousies between the various races withinthe Iraqian State.Lakes of crude oil that can be seen clearly for miles,and thescars of modern tretches made by British soldiers mark the invasion of foreigninfluences into this ancient,sleepy land.The ruined canals of ancient Babylon,still easily traceable from an airplane,reveal the fact that the desert floor stretchingfor miles on every side could again be made as fertile and populous as the valleyof the Nile.  \nIf you were to alight at the camp of Sheik Hassan,you would find the typicalArab encampment of a powerful Chief.We once visited him at the suggestionof his cousin,the late King Feisal.We were met by the Sheik and his brother,accompanied by two hundred horsemen.They circled and charged and circledagain,shouting,fring off their rifes and cuting capers in token of welcome.Itwas a marvelous exhibition of horsemanship.  \nThe festivities continued throughout the day.Our dinner was served,asyours would be,by the Sheik himself.A young lamb cooked whole is usually  \nthe main dish on such occasions.Hassan presided with the gusto and courtesycharacte","cbCaiqPEYk5AKLHt","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiqPEYk5AKLHt","pdf",509321,"English","# New
