Fresh Moves For Stringent
Post War Policy Are Made

Washington - Fresh moves de-
veloped in Congress this week for
more stringent postwar policy
resolution that would require
United Nations action to set up
world organization with military
powers to suppress future aggres-
sion.
Appealing to the Senate for
prompt action on the postwar
collaboration measure, Chairman
Bloom (D-NY) of the House For
eign Affairs Committee declared
that Congress in 1910 took a "far
stronger" stand for outlaWing war
than the proposal presently con-
templated.
simultaneously, a Senate bloc
assailed the postwar resolution
approved by a Senate Foreign
Relations Subcommittee as vague
in its commitments" and propos-
ed alteration of a section which
advises that the United States,
acting through its constitutional
processes, join with free and SOW
ereign nations in the establish
ment and maintenance of inter-
national authority with power to
prevent aggression and to pre-
serve the peace Of the world"
The groups proposed substitute
advocates:
THAT the United States, acting
through its constitutional process
ses, join with the other United
Nations in the establishment and
maintenance of an international
organization to promote co-opera-
ton among nations, with authori-
ty to settle international disputes
peacefully and with power, in
Guiding military force, to suppress
military aggression and to pre-
serve the peace of the world"

NAILS U-BOATS HAVE
LITTLE LUCK NOW

Washington - The lull in the
axis U-boat campaign continued
in the Western Atlantic last week
when no announcements were
made of the destruction of allied
or neutral merchant ships in those
waters.
During the past eight weeks
only two united nations or neutral
merchantmen have been listed
officially as U-boat victims in the
Western Atlantic, bringing the
total of such sinkings since Pearl
Harbor to 688.
Both allied and axis sources,
however, warned recently that
German submarines would re-
enter the battle of the Atlantic
equipped with heavier armament
and new devices.

It would take quite a stretch of the imagi-
nation to conceive of North Carolina
without it's rich farm1ands. Indeed, if
all the food, textiles, and other basic war
materials produced on the farms of our
State were suddenly lost to Americas
war effort, it would be as disastrous as
the loss of many major battles.
278,276 North Carolina farms today are
producing the things needed desperately
by the fighting men and war workers of
the United Nations. Nearly 100000
people (more than 450o of North Caro-
1ina's population) are Gin there pitching"

young Swiss who visited the bat
tlefield of Solferino in the Fran
co-Austrian war in 1889 and
did what he could to help the
wounded on both sides. Dunant
was concerned with the sheer
physical horror of conditions
among the injured, and he wrote
book that started an interna-
tional revulsion of feeling.
After five years of agitation,
the Geneva Convention of 1864
recognized the Red Cross as an
international and a neutral
agency. The idea was that sick
and wounded soldiers would be
cared for regardless of whose
men they were; and that hospi-
tails, ambulances and Red Cross
personnel would be safe from at
tack.
Nine nations adopted the &C.
neva articles at first, but it was
not until 1881 that the first
American Red Cross Society was
formed in Washington, and
year later that the United States
ratified the Treaty of Geneva.
RAPID DEVELOPMENT
But once the organization be-
gan to grow and demonstrate its
usefulness in this country, devel-
opment was more rapid than

plasma is the most important
medical development that the
war has produced. During the
London Blitz, from August, 1910
to January, l94l, $4,000 pints
of liquid plasma were obtained
and shipped to England. Eleven
biood-donor centers were oper-
ating in the United States before
Pearl Harbor. Almost 100000
pints were collected last year,
and now the surgeons general
of the Army and Navy have ask
ed the Red Cross TO step up the
rate to at least 10000 pints a
week. or more than double last
years donations.
The Red Cross is taking an I'M
precedented responsibility in the
personal welfare and recreation
of servicemen, supplying them
with small comforts and luxuries
and helping to fight such enc
mics as boredom and homesick-
ness.
For instance, more than $50
Red Cross clubs and rest centers
are operating in distant places
such as Iceland, India, New Cal
edonia, North Africa and China.

anywhere else in the world. In
1905 Congress gave il an unique
status as a quasi-governmental
agency-responsible to the gov
eminent and yet not supported
by il. Besides the duties specified
by the Treaty Of Geneva, the Red
Cross became the medium of
communication between the peo-
pie of this country and their Ar
my and Navy; and it also was
named as the relief agency TO
serve in national calamities such
as floods and fires.

far, the japanese government
has refused to admit food and
clothing parcels to prisoners In
the Far East, but the Red Cross
is still hopeful that such ar
rangements can be made.
These are some of the reasons

Roosevelt proclaimed March as
