Security Council members
would be chosen by their re-
spective governments. In gen.
eral, it is anticipated that they
would be of high diplomatic or
even cabinet rank.
While one person would bear
the official designation of Sc
curity Council member. he
would have his staff of advisers
and in council deliberations any
of these experts might be called
upon TO present the point Of
view of his government on an
issue. In special cases, a secre-
tary of state or foreign minister
or high military officer might
be designated to plead his coun-
try's case.
The power which this Secur-
ity Council will have cannot be
minimized, but it should be
borne in mind that this power is
confined to the question of
maintaining world peace.
How the Security Council
would enforce its decisions will

The big job and almost the
only job of the Security Council
of the proposed United Nations
organization would be to main
tain international peace and Sc
Curity. Since its task is largely
enforcement, experts Of the four

Cided that the major powers

States, Great Britain, Soviet

should have permanent seats on

DRY here was that if there was
no grcemcnt between these five
powers, there wasn't any use in
trying TO set up security or

countries would vote in the Sc

not able to agree. There are sew
cral principal points to work
out:
First, whether the represent
ative Of a power sitting on the
Security Council should have
the right TO vote on question
in which his country was con-
cerncd. Second, shall decisions
of the Security Council be by
simple majority or two-thirds
majority? Third, must the five

an issue, thus making it impos-

RESEARCH AND AIR POWER

# is an obvious foct that wars ore Wooed in lob
orotories and douehtine rooms as we'll as on bottle
fields For proof there the robot bomb. IT came roo
Iote to threaten Allied victory seriously. But it hos
beloved victory and rosed its price at time when
the rest Of the Nozi machine is outcIossed IN
every department.
Yet in spite Of this evidence our postwar plans
for scientific preparedness have Jagged Now at lost
an Official word hos been spoken on the subject by
Undersecretory of War Patterson. Appearing before
the House Postwar Military Policy Committee, he
stressed the urgent need Of continuous, 'on9-ron9e
research in the science Of war.
Naturally enough Mr.. Patterson put great en-
phosis on ovation research Military authorities sup
ported his arguments with the statements that all our
air eoupnent will be obsolete in two three years,
and that the potentoes Of jet propulsion, rockets,
and the like have scarcely begun to be developed.
Mr. Patterson did not suggest detailed who and
how of this program But previous congressional tes-
tin,ony by members Of the Aeronoutico Chamber OF
Commerce suggests logical way toward practical
operation.
They would have air power research carried out
for the Army and Navy by private aviation industry.
And there ore many arguments to support their
stand
The industry already has plants equipment, and
trained personnel. 1t has need TO keep os much or
all these as possible the job in peocetime. For,
unlike such industries as auto manufacturing dir
plane builders cannot reconvert in Peocetime. They
can only shrink and the less shrinkoee the better
for all concerned.
These same facilities would likely make it pos
sbe to carry on the research program in private in
dustry with greater economy. If competition is still
operating normally otter the war, it should provide
the incentive to turn out the best possible product
for the least possible COST when the competitors
are working for the Army and Navy.
And there are historical reasons to support the
industrys stand Most ePochoI military inventions
have been the work Of civilians not professional SOL
ders That is certainly true Of aviation and it ought
to be equally true of developments in etProPeled,
rodio-controI|ed flight
The last was followed by decade Of neglect
and bad planning from which miIitory aviation
had not recovered at the time Of Pearl Horbor. This
time we must be ready to resume military production
almost ct moments notice, and to turn out the
hest orcrof in the world for the worlds best fyers

MEANS OF IMMEDIATE
ACTION PROVIDED

The Security Council would
be in continuous session, al
though the General Assembly
would meet regularly but once
a year. Thus the Security Coun-
Gil would be prepared to take
up Immediately any question
which involved the peace of the
world.
Such questions could be
brought before the Security
Council by the Secretary Cen
cral, possibly as the result Of A
newspaper dispatch reporting
trouble in some corner of the
world. Cases might also be re-
ferred to the Security Council
by the General Assembly, or by
an action initiated by a Security
Council member, or by formal
notice from any government.

This has been interpreted by

City's Wholesale Mart
To Be Completed Soon

The city-built wholesale market
at Fourth and Ashe streets will
soon be completed, and plans for
its operation will be drawn up by
city officials, it. was learned yes
terday.
Already finished is the "a feet
by 270 feet shed where the pro-
duce will be received and trans
ferred. Only the painting on this
building remains. A small build
ing to house toilets, and a guam
tity of paving work is still to be
done.
The market proper will be made
of concrete floors and wooden COW
ering and top. Plans call for the
wholesalers to bring their produce
to one assigned side of the shed,
and for retailers to make their
purchases on the other side.
1t is expected that the city will
designate an individual to super
wise the work of the market.
The project will cost the city ap-
proximately $4,000. It was design
ed by the staff of the City Engi-
neer, collaborating with farmers OF
this area.
