At a late hour last night, no
serious accidents had been report

able to the icy pavements.
L. c. Ellis, driver of a Safeway
Transit company bus, received
slight decorations of the hand DUR

sages, there still are many notes
which we all have to write.

included among the established

Would you use pencil and a

better to put it off for that future

There Is a big fight going on at the United Nations meeting and strangely enough 1t has nothing to do with Molotov. New York and san Francisco are offering their fair cities as sites for the LIN and the delegates cant decide which would be more advantage. ous. San Francisco is fine, but when a delegate asks for the floor he doesn't want to be standing on a hill.
 The Arabian delegates are dick ering for the place with the best laundry facilities. Those Arab ians don't care how expensive the hotel rooms are: they always have the sheets with which to climb through the windows.
 At present the meetings are be. ing held at the Waldorf Towers and it's now understandable why the English ask our country for that big loan-they wanted to tip the bellboy.
 stayed at the Waldorf and while was there I addressed the Russian delegation. don't know if they liked my speech, but after three hours of debate they man. dated me to lower Slobovia. All the delegates had my book 50 This Is Peace" right in front of them at all times. I didn't know why until I found out the Waldorf doesn't want its tables scratched.
 New York, being so close to the piers. is a great place for the meetings and all the New Workers are anxious to help the peace movement along-in fact. the pigeons there are now flying around with parsley between their teeth. The city of the Golden Gate is offering everything 1t owns including the bay. but the delegates just sit back and mutter will cross that bridge when we come 10 it.
 But 1t really makes little differ ence where the site is-it's not the landscaping that counts but what grows in the heart of man. Let's hope the meetings bring last ing peace to a war-weary world.

Hutn MlnetS the kero c n c stove which started the fire.
 That story ought to haunt all of us, because it is a tragedy America should have prevented. And 1t is the kind of tragedy that may occur many times before this win- ter Is past.
 Every community has its share of families living in basements, attics and shacks that can't be heated adequately.
 Tragedy is almost certain to strike again and again during the winter months, as such families try to keep warm at the expense of safety.
 So long as We permit members Of our communities to live under such conditions because they can find no better housing, such stories should keep us awake at night in our safe, comfortable homes. Our consciences shouldn't let us sleep until our town-which is all of us --has devised ways of getting ade- Quate housing for every family = before 1t is too late for some of them.
 IT'S OUR RESPONSIBILITY
 How can people live like thatp the oomplacent ask, when they notice family living in @ makeshift dwelling like the one in which three children burned to death.
 Why do We let people live like that?" is better question. and one every responsible member Of e community should ask himself.
 We have come to look on the housing shortage as a national problem. But we will solve it sooner if we accept it as @ com- munity responsibility.
