human principles and values, in.

while, and war eventually obso.
lete. Hence also the chapter or
trusteeships, with its care for de.
pendent peoples, unable yet to
look after themselves.
The Charter thus wisely mixes
realism with idealism, and sug.
gests practical lines along which
the vision of a better world may
be realized.
1t also provides for a revision OF
the Charter after 10 years, if ex.
perience in changing world
should show such step to be ad-
visable.
AL that remains for us is to use
it as an instrument of good will
and good faith with which to bind
our peoples together for the great
tasks of peace and welfare that
lie ahead.
Such in rough outline is the
Charter-surely a great document,
a worthy memorial to those VINO
endured or gave their all in this
greatest war of history. Surely a
great milestone along the path of
human progress.
The Conference worked very
hard, and San Francisco was any.
thing but joyride for the so
national delegations. That of the
U. S. A. was the largest and best
equipped, very different from that
which accompanied Woodrow Viii.
son to Paris. The U. S. A. also sup
piled most OF the able and effici-
ent secretariat. Secretary of State
Stettinius proved an outstanding
chairman, to whom much of the
success of the conference is due.
Foreign Ministers Eden and
Molotov both made a favorable,
and indeed great impression,
during their short stay. China was
ably represented by her Prime
Minister Soong, and India by her
Mudaliar, perhaps her future
Prime Minister-the two worthily
representing between them one.
third of the human race. Most OF
the other nations also put their
best foot forward in their repre-.
sensations. Europe had an able but
small representation, symbolic of
the sad change which has, alas,
come over the fortunes of that
once proud continent.
America was best represented OF
all, by her wonderful teams OF
orators and lawyers, especially
from South America. Mackenzie
King came, without interrupting
his immemorial reign over British
North America. The British Com
monwealth distinguished itself in
many ways, but not least by show
ing how much that great regional
group can sometimes differ among
themselves. Africa was there with
her exiguous representation and,
as becomes her position, not very
forward or vocal.
The great human family was
there, and one hopes that from
their joint and earnest labors
something has been born for the
future which will help to lift the
heavy burden from mems minds
and hearts.
And so goodby to kind and
beautiful San Francisco.

 Mad Scramble"
 Senator McMahon warned against the present plan of Chairman J. A. Krug, of the War Production Board to remove all controls over mater ials on V-J Day, pointing out that this would mean a mad scramble" for raw materials which would be most harmful to small business.
 This, in brief, sketches the tasks which confront the Congress when it returns in October" Senator Mo- Mahon concluded: Tt is tremend- ous task, one daring in concept, one which will truly carry out the ideals embodied in President Roose- velt's Economic Bill of Rights.
 T hope that this program will have the unqualified support of the American people, because it will mean that America will be a better nation, offering genuine security and peace and prosperity for every one"

New York, Aug. 3.-The United Press Associations and Acme News pictures, Inc, announced today es- tablishment of a working alliance for the gathering and distribution Of news pictures abroad. The ar- rangement in no way affects the domestic operations of the two ser- vices.
 Before the war American pie ture agencies, except in Paris, re- lied on arrangements with native picture agencies for coverage on the European continent. Under the new program picture coverage and picture sales on the Contin- ent will be handled by Acmes own representatives in cooperation with the European representatives of the United Press.

 Fred s. F. Ferguson, president of NEA Service. Inc, and Acme, has appointed Boyd Lewis, 39, until recently United Press European News manager, as executive editor Of NEA-Acme effective August 6. This is a new executive post and es- tablishes a coordinating department for expanded operations.

Westinghouse
 Buys Company

P1tCSburgh, Aug. 3- (UP) -Tne Westinghouse Electric Corp. has ac- quired the B. F. Sturtevant Co.,, of Boston, Mass, pioneer in the design and manufacture of air handling and processing equipment. it was announced here today.
 The Boston company will become a wholly Westinghouse sub sidiary, operating as the B. F. Stur- tevant CO, a division of WeSting- house Electric. Westinghouse will take over management of the com- pany about Sept. 1.
 According to Ellis L. Spray, vice president in charge of the air. condi- tioning and elevator divisions of Westinghouse, the acquisition will result in "the most complete organ ization in the air conditioning and handling industry"
 Headquarters for the air condi- tioning activities will be in Boston. Other factories of the Sturtevant Go. are located in Camden, N. J.. La Sale, H.. Berkeley, Calif., and Galt, Ontario, Canada.
 Spray said that heavy-duty and industrial refrigeration manufacture would continue at Jersey City, N. J., along with production of the precip- tron, electronic air cleaner.

to Britain he promptly filed libe. actions against them under the strict British libel law.
 Laski captured the limelight again immediately after the over- Whelming Labor party victory by an- nouncing that one of the govern ment's first moves would be against the Franco regime in Spain. That drew headlines, too.
 But the pipe-smoking Professor never ceases to be amazed when his remarks draw headlines.
 His first surprise of that kind came when he was featuring at Harvard University almost 25 years ago. He expressed his sympathy with the Boston police who were on strike-the same strike that catapulted Calvin Coolidge to na- tional fame.
 Overnight Laski found himself a public storm so great that he al- most abandoned the academic life of America. He weathered the shock, and in the intervening period has spent almost as much time in America as in Britain. He was a friend of President Roosevelt's and was in the United States to observe the start of the New Deal.
 His ideas of the Labor party's New Deal for Britain pick up at just about the point where the American New Deal left off.
 He expressed these thoughts with out attracting much attention dur ing the annual conference of the Labor party at Blackpool last May. But when he repeated them this week in a broadcast to the United States his speech was cabled back to London and caused the quota tions on stock of the Bank of Eng land to drop precipitately.
 Laski wrote his first book on po- litical science in 1917. He has been connected with the London School ot Economics since 1920 and a pro- lessor of political science at Lon- dor University since 1926.
 He has no great popularity with a good many British trades union leaders who regard him as a mem- Der of the "IntelligenSia" and also as too left-wingish. There is a considerable clash of opinion within the party between its trade union components and the so-called poli- tical wing which is not tied to any particular union.
 However, he is popular with the party rank and file which, generally ic fo vt 1nff fhnyS lao JA leaders.
 Thin and Frail
 In appearance LaSki is thin and frail but he has a voice of great volume and power and few can match him at sharp and biting repartee.
 He has written scores of books and pamphlets and is usually work ing on two or three at the same time.
 His speciality is in American economis and politics and he re- reatedly has called the attention of British scholars to American work in British fields which they have neglected.
 Since his views are considerably more radical than those of the La- borites who hold the principal of fices in government, 1t was expect ed that aLski's role might be that of . gadfly t ospur them to more rapid and more sweeping action in carrying out the Labor party pledges os specializing large segmentS of British industry and finance.

Washington, August 2-The url- finished task of the present Con- gress is passage of a program flor an orderly reconversion to the ways of peace" which will mean sustained prosperity, U. s. Senator Brien Mc- Mahon Dem., ConnD declared to- night in a statewide broadcast or iginating from his office here.
 Speedy Enactment
 T am hopeful by the time that Congress returns on October 8 that 8 forward looking program of legis- lation will be ready for considera- tion and speed enactment" Senator McMahon declared. T know that Congress, during this recess, is going to devote a great deal of time to research and conferences in an ef- fort to bring forth constructive, helpful legislation which will bridge the gap between V-J Day and the cmplete return to the ways of peace.
 Some of this legislation is al- ready before Congress. I know that these bills will receive the prompt, careful attention of the congression- al committees which they deserve"
 One measure of paramount im- portance, he said, is the Kilgore- Forand bill for unemployment tn- surance, which President Truman has asked be passed.
 This is designed to cover as many
 
 Mahon said, to protect workers dis placed by cutbacks, to prevent dis organization of war production by a chaotic search for peacetime jobs, and to sustain purchasing power"
 Other measures mentioned as necessary legislation by Senator Mc- Mahon were the Pepper resolution to raise the minimum wage level to 65 cents an hour, the Kilgore-Wag- ner housing bill, permitting coor- dination of housing programs by Federal, state and local housing au- thorities to stimulate private low

Naugatuck, Aug. 3.-Failure Of Congress to appropriate necessary funds has caused the cancellation of plans for the establishment of an office of the United States En- ployment Service in Naugatuck, an official of the State War ManpoWer Commission said today.
 The local U. s. E. s. office was to have been located at the Futile school and it was reported a lease had been drawn up. Atty. John Carmody of the WING said today that other branch offices in the state have also been dropped.
 Local factory officials had given whole-hearted support to the plan for establishment of such an office here.
 At present local residents seeking work have to go to the Waterbury U. s. E. s. office and it was felt here that a large number of persons employed. by the Naugatuck plant warranted setting up such an office here.

 Friendly and gracious Frances Mitscher confided to a roomful o1 women that besides being con- cerned about the admiral's safety ir the battle zone. she worried that the Pacific wind and sun were pen etrating the shelter of his long, visored baseball cap. She became convinced that the cap afforded toe little protection because "wizened' and "leathery" were stock express sions of war correspondents de- scribing the admiraPs appearance She added that she tried to re- move some of the wrinkles from the admiral's well-lined face by massaging his skin when he re- turned to her on the west coast after his long absence in the battle zones.
 Mitscher's birthplace is about as landlocked as the western prairies. The only body of water nearby is the Hillsboro mill pond, fed by the Little Baraboo River. It's course beyond the mill dam winds back and forth under the right-o way of the Hillsboro and North Eastern railroad, a unique spur line which sends motorized unit twice daily to make connections five miles away with the North Western line at Union Center.
 Visits Childhood Scene
 The admiral has returned infre- quently to this community of 1,146 Inhabitants since his family moved when he was two years old to Ok lahoma. The last previous visit was II years ago. He remembered little of his birthplace-a cottage built by his father, Oscar-or of the furniture-making shop which his father ran.
 The landmark which the admiral remembered best was an old sum- mer house and its hillside root eel lar where he recalled that the fam fly used to hang fresh butchered mutton to cool. The place was out in the country few miles east of Hillsboro, and Mitscher remembered playing there more than 50 years ago as a boy of five or six.
 Visiting it now, he found the summer house fallen into ruins and the root cellar overgrown with weeds.
 After stopping overnight, the admiral and his wife resumed their motor trip to Washington, D. c. They counted on making about 400 miles per day.
