Justice Roberts on a World Government

Many of us have long felt that the real hope for continued world peace lies in world government embrac- ing all the nations of the world in unity of purpose and interest imposing obligations and sharing benefits among all peoples.
 To the array political students agreeing is now added the of exJusce Owen J. Roberts Speaking before members of the Associated Press at their annual luncheon this week. he advocated "a agency to outlaw war and to regulate weapons He added, The people should be told they have no security against international in the United Nations"
 Pointing out that such government would require the sacrifice of national prerogatves Justice Roberts sad I hard choice perhaps but that is the choice Take your chances on the thirteen states took their chances in 17s7 and get with it, or take your chance being able to defend yourself against the atomic bomb"
 To which sage counsel there would to be little tenabe objection. Call it fancful and overoptmistic, you w but stronger and stronger becomes the conviction with more and more persons young and old that are to have world peace will only through real world government with all that the term implies.

CHARGES AGAINST FRANCO
(The Bridgeport Post)

NAHG BAAdBSPSAb SSV
 The delegates of the Security Council have another hot problem on their hands, as they turn from the undecided Iran issue to the highly controVersltan question posed by pr. oscar Lange that the Franco regime in Spain is harboring Nazi war plotters and Is a menace to the peace of the world.
 The State Department has re- ceived an official invitation from the government of Spain to be part of e five-nation commission to visit Spain and investigate the charges of the delegate from Poland. Spain announces that 1t is perfectly will to have members of the LIN which have friendly relations" with that country find out for themselves the truth or the falsity of Dr. LangeS statements. Other governments to receive similar invitations are the British, Egyptian, Dutch and Bra Zilian.
 It is up to the Security Council to take any action 1t deems neces- sary with respect to the allegations of Dr. Lange. He will be supported in his stand by the U. s. s. R.
 It seems only fair that the &c., curity Council, having listened to Russia and Iran, in the still un- settled issue should listen also to the evidence that pr. Lange has to offer. But there is no reason for the United States and Bri- tain to do anything which can be interpreted as foreign intervention in the affairs of smaller nation especially when they are aware that Lange represents only a puppet government.
 What actually Is the case against Spain? Franco won civil war against Communists backed by So- viet Russia, aided by Italy and Ger many. That is undeniably true But 1t is also true that Russia at- tackled little Finland, and after Q setback, made a deal with Hitler to divide Poland and take over the small Baltic states.
 Spain then was led by Franco who established a totalitarian state. The country has a population of 25 mill lion people, and is accused of be- ing a threat to the rest of the world because of its totalitarian govern ment and its pro-Fascist antece- dents. Tn view of the weakness of lthe Spanish population, economi- cally as well as numerially, it is absurd to think that Spain is a threat to the peace of the world

NORWICH TO BE TRA1NLEss
(Nartford Times)

NeoeNh
 Changing the route of the New Haven Railroads State of Maine Ex- press so that 1t will operate by way of Providence instead of Norwich, D..-ielSon and Putnam, will leave Norwich, a city of 35,000 population, without passenger train service. There may be other New England cities as large as Norwich not hav- ing such service, but they do not readily leap to mind.
 Norwich can get along without this service, of course. Were 1t de- pendent on 1t, the railroad and pulp lie authorities would not have per- mitted the change. The records show that relatively few people used 1t. A bus will connect with the State of Maine Express at New Lon- don, and the city is near enough to the Whaling City to make easy acess to other east and west trains For some time the State of Maine Express has been the only train serving Norwich.
 Thus another commentary is made on the changing nature of things. There was Q time when @ city without passenger trains would be regarded as handicapped indeed. Norwich will suffer no inferiority tremors-her people will come and go about aS they have in the past, to suit their own convenience.

CONSIDER, NOW, THE PASTURE
Christian Science Monitor)

Christian Science Monitor
 America'S untitled acres these days are teeming with four legged life as vast numbers of cattle are being turned out for grazing. While this activity gets but few lines in country weeklieS and seldom finds it's way into big-city newspapers, the annual renting of pastures to live stock operators has very import ant bearing on the economic life of the United States.
 For a nominal sum. the cattle owner is enabled to feed his herd economically through the summer and ready 1t for fall marketing through an intensive grain-ration- ing process, thereDy achieving max imurn poundage at minimum cost. Nor is the practice confined to those who make business of buying and selling livestock. In this era of di- versifled agriculture, almost every sizable farm has It's grass tract where a dozen or so cattle are pas- tured, and they so surprisingly long way toward augmenting the country'S meat supply.
 Because 1t doesn't produce bumper crops of corn or wheat, the pasture, to the layman'S eye, may seem a frozen asset" But this is far from true. Through feeding millions of cattle, it indirectly provides em-

Politics and OPA

The stormy history of OPA has to climax with bill in the House of Representatives which, while it tensiby extends OPAs fe actually neither repreves destroys it. This bill is largely the product of cashng political phosophies which emphasizes again that the root of much of OPAs trouble can be found in word-potcs
 OPA, dealing with vital matters which affect peoples kve ehoods and voting habits could not fail to be con- scous pressure in and out of government And seemed at times that the pressure which OPA passed along yersey proportional to the pressure eXerted upon it.
 fair appraisal of OPAs record scarcely fail to turn up instances where the numerically minor group of n dusrass has been squeezed harder than the millions who gain their living from agriculture and labor In the end The squeeze has usually been modified and distributed evenly because would work otherwise but only after considerable inconvenience and nequtes and great deal nf bitter, time-wastng wranglng.
 On the other hand, some manufacturers have blamed OPA for everything meanwhile using their proestaons as cloak for reprehensble practices In fact the bad feeling hot words exaggerated accusations both sides have made difficult to get accurate picture of the stua tion as whole
 As the quarrel between OPA and industry has gone on bhe public has been subjected to exchanges of nvectve usually reserved for campaign speeches recently negotiations between industries unons At times there has seemed to be complete absence of good will either sde Both industry and OPA leaders have spent altogether too much time in justyng their own positions gossng and ignoring their mistakes and concentrating on their opponents sins and shortcomings.
 We have heard too much about OPAs deep plot to de- boy private enterprise and the profit system and to drive their champions out of business We have heard too much about manufacturers foul conspiracy to create imitation and sarve their workers into submission until organized labor
 destroyed We have heard too little of any desire to ad
 init mistakes to get together and try solve the price prob lem harmoniously.
 Of course OPA has been unfair at times. Of nome ndustrasts have taken advantage of OPA legally or Gefed illegally But few will that do not need in- begent price control in the present crisis And fewer will say that would have been better off without OPA during She war.
 The House bill just passed invites price rises rises more bitterness, strikes And it at time when
 Imitation has already started The index of basic commodity prices creeping toward 100 per cent advance August 19S9 Production though well under way far off balance Distribution is snared up.
 It is right that imitation must be beaten. There nust first be sane sensible non-parsan legislative repair work OPA That job is up to the Senate. And after that there must be earnest cooperative effort by a hands to slave off imitation. No class group, party Rnse together.

 To the world at large of courses there Is no rela ton between those two events To me, however there is. For upon what Jimmy Byrnes does in Paris de- bends in large part whether that daughter of yours and young Lockwood and all the other sons and daughters being born irto this world must endure the suffering of another war.
 It has been just two years since Lock was born At that time remember writing you my fears for the kind of world he might grow up in. said
 T am just bit fearful that Cordell Hull thinks of peace personal peace-one which can wait until he gets around to negotiating 1t, as drink waits after Q game of golf; not realizing perhaps that the boys who are fighting over there and their wives and children and the mothers who are bring ing new sons into the world have much greater gte stake in future peace than MT. Hul-and may joStle his elbow.
 Mfr Hull has 73 distinguished years to look back on But they--your son and all the other mothers must not be years crowded with the same heart- aches and pain as the elder statesmen nave hanaeo Us.
 This realize, is not the kind of letter one should write to the mother of a newborn daughter But have 8 hunch that the mothers Of America would rather face these problems now when they can be solved, than walt until 1t is too late"
 That was written in March 1914, with the war a long way from being over, and with MT. Hull ct that time down in Palm Beach putting on the golf course.
 
 Today, one year after the end of the European war; we are just sitting down to try to prepare for the final peace conference We do not even know yet whether that final peace conference actually can be held
