20 Latin American Nations
To Center on 3 Security Points

6TdZll may 1nSlSC on one at Sar
Francisco-they are interested in en-.
larging the powers of the Assembly
where each state, large or small
has an equal vote.
Latin American thinking is clearly
indicated in the first two paragraphs
of the Act of Chapultepec, which
provide:
That all sovereign states are iu-
ridically equal among themselves.
That every state has the right
to the respect of its individuality
and independence, on the part OF
the. other members of the interna-
tional community"
big Power" Show.
Latin American diplomats, par.
ticularly during the drafting of the
Dumbarton Oaks plan, made it plain
to the State Department that they
felt that the United Nations crgan-
ization, so far as its provisions for
security were concerned, was toe
much of big power" show.
They felt that in assigning five OF
the IL seats on the Security Council
permanently to the United States
Great Britain, Russia, China and
France, the Dumbarton Oaks plan.
ners left very small role in secur-
lty to the other Al United Nations
There is little, if any, chance tina,
the distribution of seats on thu
council will be changed at Sar
Francisco. But the Latin American
nations and other small" anc
middle" states may be successful
in efforts to enlarge somewhat the
powers Of the assembly in DEALING
with security questions. AS the plar
now stands, the assembly's role ir
this respect is virtually limited tt
choosing the six nonpermanent
members of the council. The as.
sembly may consider disputes
threatening the peace, but not il
the council already has taken juris-
diction.
Tremendous Disparity.
Although the Latin American
countries generally are referred te
as a block, there is in fact a ire
mendous disparity in their size anc
military potential. For example
Brazil covers an area aproximatine
that of the United States and has s
population of 100000. Ell Saliva.
dor, by contrast, has $4,000 people
Fifteen of the 20 Latin American
countries have populations of les
than 100000 persons.
Therefore, if a middle power
bloc is organized, as has been sug
gested in Canada, it is virtually Ger.
tain that Argentina, Brazil, Chile
and Mexico would insist on inclusion
in this category.

advancement uninterrupted by bar
barrie eruptions OF, ever more de-
structive wars"
After listing the five principles he
considers essential foundations OF
such a peace structure, Mr.. Hull
asserted:
only as that structure is built
now, only as it is tended and
strengthened through the years to
come, will the tragic memories OF
the past be effaced, the untold sac
rifices of two world wars be vindi-
Gated, and hope for the future be
kindled in triumph.
THE creation of that structure
is common interest of all peace
loving nations, fundamental to theil
very survival as free nations.

culties between and among Their

Turning Point of History.
II regard this meeting of the
United Nations as one of the great
turning points of history" Mr.. Hull
said in his letter to Mr.. Stettinius.
1.-THE decisions made there will guide
the destinies of the human race for
generations to come"
He said the conference offered
an opportunity to build for our
selves and for the future genera
tons structure of international
relations that will, at long last, give
humanity a tangible hope of en-

security, of material and spiritual

that cannot be resolved within its
framework.
What happens at San Francisco
will be an acid test of whether man
kind has suffered enough and has
learned enough to have acquired the
vision and the resolution to build a

law can be established and main

(Sirth OF a SerieS.)
By JOSEPH H. BAIRD.

Policy of the 20 Latin American
republics at the San Francisco Sc
curity Conference, observers here
believe, will center around three
main efforts. These are:
l. To see that the world security
system to be established there
strengthens rather than decreases
the protection from aggression that
they already have found in the
recent Act of Chapultepec which
emerged from the Mexico City Con-
ference.
2. To increase the authority of
the so-called little states beyond
that provided in the Dumbarton
Oaks draft.
3. To support economic provisions
of the United Nations charter, which
may ease their course in the eco
nomic storms which are certain to
result from the worlds transition
from war to peace economy.
Attempted to Avoid Clash.
1nasmuch as the Mexico City
meeting was held on the eve of the
San Francisco Conference and as
the statesmen there had the Dunn
barton Oaks plan before them, they
attempted to avoid any direct clash
between the American and world
systems.
This was done by inserting in the
act-which currently provides for
consultation and mutual aid among
the American states should any of
them be threatened-a provision
that in its permanent postwar form
it should be consistent with the
purposes and principles of the gen.
eral international organization -"
In the Dumbarton Oaks plan pro-
vision is made for the recognition of
regional agreements" like the Act
OF Chapultepec. However, it also
provides that military action shall
not be taken under them without
the approval of the World Security
Council.
Regional Agreement Plan.
Most OF the Latin-American states,
it is understood here, would like to
put the Act of Chapultepec into
effect as permanent postwar agree
ment, as is envisioned in part II of
the act. 1t is quite likely, as a re-
suit, that they may support France S
proposed amendment to the Dunn
barton Oaks plan which would en-
able regional agreements to operate
without the prior consent of the
council in each case.
Inasmuch as none of the Latin
American states has a permanent
seat on the Security Council-al-
though there have been reports that

United Nations

AS the San Francisco conference gets
underway, we pause to think for moment
of the worldwide Importance of this gath
ering. Cordell Hull describes it as zone of
the greatest turning points in history"
Now, as never before, we believe the
leaders of the world should take a definite
stand for the assurance of human life, lib
erty and freedom from war.
In describing the principles on which a
world organization of nations must be
built Mr.. Hull has written the following
points to present Secretary of State, Mr.
Stettinius:
l. Law, justice and fair dealing.
2. Constant alertness to danger
3. Cooperative effort in support of
peace and security and freedom and prog
reSS
f. Willingness to compose differences
by peaceful adjustment.
5. Readiness to use force, if necessary,
for the maintenance of peace. A..
"Only as that structure is built now"
Hull said, "only as it is tended and strength
ened through the years to come, will the
tragic memories of the past be effaced, the
untold sacrifices Of two world wars be vim
dicated and hope for the future be kindled
in triumph"
We thoroughly agree with Mr.. Hull and
are reminded that Franklin D. Roosevelt
once called him "the father of the United
Nations"
Like every other peace-loving citizen,
we hope that the principles which Mr. Hull
and Mr.. Roosevelt worked towards, may
be carried out We urge that every Ameri-
can citizen keep himself informed on the
news from the conference; for it is truly a
turning point in history.

Cleanup Time

Springtime is cleanup time, so let's get
our premises cleared of all trash and rub
bish left there by winters winds. If we do
this, nature will do much more to help
beautify surroundings.
The town of West Jefferson is making
a special effort to cleanup the streets at
this time, but the citizens must do their
part if this drive lis to be success.
Let's clean up all vacant lots in town.
But let's notistop at that. Farmers through
out the county are also urged to clean up,
plant and beautify. A little extra work
now will make more beautiful place
throughout. the summer. Not only will
home owners enjoy this beauty, but so will
all of the people, who pass that way.
Let's all cleanup, paint-up, fix-up and
plant some for beauty.
Not only is. it important to clean up for
appearance sake, but for health as well.
Flies, rats and other harmful insects and
varmints can be greatly lessened if we
keep our town cleaned3up. Disease is often
spread through the accumulation of rub
bish and other unsightly debris Let's do
outside as well as inside spring cleaning.

made commendable record in the sale of
bonds and we feel sure they will this time.
Last week, this paper suggested that
bonds be bought in honor Of the late Pres
ident Franklin D. Roosevelt. We have also
noticed this suggestion from other publ
cations The Richmond Times Dispatch,
makes the suggestion and the proposal is
further made that Roosevelts picture be
stamped on the bonds.
Bonds bought in honor of Roosevelt will
indeed be tangible evidence of the devotion
and loyalty which the tens of thousands had
for him.
Why not buy your bond in honor of
Roosevelt and help the schools in their
drive? Now as never y before, people
should be inspired to buy bonds and to keep
them Since he'was always champion of
youth, it is particularly fitting that the
school drive should center around MIR.
Roosevelt as well as other casualties of
war.
With the San Francisco conference un-
derway, and victory near, surely everyone
should feel like having an extra part in this
through the purchase of extra bonds.
Buy some extra bonds now, honor in
death the man in life, who labored so hard
for victory and world peace Do your part
in helping to complete these.

Demand has far out-taxed clint
cal facilities, however. In Chi
cago, Mr.. Arthur I. Edison, COM
mander of the Illinois field army,
reports that over 1900 women
have been processed since the in
ception of the examination center,
with SO of them, or 8 per cent of
the total, found to have cancer
without their knowing it. Only
a S. fee to cover laboratory ex-
penses is charged.
Besides the sterling work of it's
field army, the American Can
Ger Society, under DR.. c. C. Lit
tie, has devoted itself to the de-
velopment of research. Although
operating no laboratories, the So
ciety allocates it's funds among
outstanding scientific centers for
continued study Of the dreaded
malady.
In this respect, Mr.. Johnston,
in striking the keynote for the
great fund drive, declared: .'Med-
zeal men believe that with ade-
quate funds Tor research, cancer
might be made a minor cause of
death :. -. The cause of cancer
may well be discovered in a few
years."

We Don't Need Coupons

We don't need coupons for kindness;
That's joy we can share with ALL
We don't need coupons for happiness,
That's something each one can install.
We don't need coupons for courage,
And it's marvellous material for wear;
It's rich and lovely and shining,
And it never gets threadbare.
We don't need coupons for mercy,
And prayers are unrationed and free;
And it's these things that will help
Our hearts to meet any contingency.
We don't need coupons for laughter,
And we don't need coupons for fun;
We don't need coupons for neighborliness,
Nor so many things under the sun.
We don't need coupons for sympathy,
And that's something everyone needs;
We don't need coupons for honesty,
Nor for straightforward deeds
We don't need coupons for love and belief,
And so, if our hearts are wise,
Well use our coupons for plain existence,
While life's couponless things we prize.

Having already backed the
fights against tuberculosis and
infantile paralysis, the American
public now is being asked to get
behind the assault on one of the
most dreadful of all diseases
cancer-which annually claims
the lives of 100000 of our people
and knows no age limit.
With April having been desig-
mated as cancer control month by
congress, the American Cancer
society is seeking to raise S.
100000 under the leadership of
Eric Johnston, president of the
U. S. chamber of commerce, for
continuation of its research work
and it's field arny's educational
program.
In existence since 1885, the
field army, up to this year a
woman's organization, has sought
to bring home to the public the
all-important but scarcely appre-
ciated fact that cancer can be
cured if caught when certain
symptoms first appear.
In so doing, the field army
gradually has been breaking
down such traditional barriers
which impeded treatment of the
disease as the victims shame aris-
ing from an ignorance of the fact
that cancer is not hereditary and
that it strikes Unfortunately,
and the patients terror of the
almost precluding a doc
tors discussion of it.
It was this need to dispel popu-
lar superstitions and acquaint the
public of the real nature of the
disease which led the American
Cancer society, originally known
as the American Society for the
Control of Cancer, to organize the
field army to institute a broad
educational program under spon-
sorship of the General Federation
of Woman's clubs and approval
of the American Medical associa-
ton.
