THE INvINeIBHE uN4rEp
NATIONS
BY J. E. ZONES

victorious nations pledged themselves
one ana all to observe ami maintain
the peace of the World In ccmplei
ing the organization all loopholes for
escape by rebellious nations were
closed But strange as it may seem
Soviet Russia has bee grwoing, and
and bowling, about tie rest of WorlG
almost from the time our enemies
surrendered in Europe and the.
Orient. Practically every American
familiar with conditions in Russia
repeats over and over again, the
same statement that Russia has with
held Tie news of the CoGn,il fro,n
her own people. Their newspapers
and radios have suppressed the news
of the Russian walkout On the UNO
Security Council in New York.
White the American and British
Govern nents Lave exercised the pa
tience OF pair of Jobs, the Soviet
so-called Statesmen" at the New
York Council meetings have not only
been unmanageable, but they have
tried to impose Soviet dicta ion cn
the natSons OF the WCr,d.
Your own Washington cortespon-
lent finds no evidence in the Nation
i Capital that the United States Gov.
ernment will be bluffed or balldozed
II submit to any compromise with
the Russians that " ill he to The detri
ment CT Iran, or any otter small or
,arge nation.
When peace was being mapped in
Paris II the close of World War ouI
President, Woodrow Wilson, was out
classed by our own Allies. Bat Will
son took chance and did lis level
best to land the League if Nations on
firm base. But the foundation was
weak, and the Unitei. States backed
away, and dropped cut of the picture.
This terrible failure has served as
warning in creating the organization
known as The United Nations.
Russia will have to crawl back into
good standing with the new World
Forces and live up to the principles
and the ideals for which it stands
Russia will most likely take It's
8, =
Gil. The British Empire and IT, Uni
ted States are not going 10 knlckle
down under Communism. Russi
can't buck the Worll, or weaken the
determination to outlaw future wars.
Housing Crisis
1t has been determined that 27 per
cent OF the families of the United
States are affected by the housing
shortage. There is a shortage Of build
ing materials; shortage of work
men. More important, real estate
tlrsts are getting away with bloody
murder in nearly every par ut the
United States. Tie Governmant has
thousands of buildings that could be
converted into good living quarters
for se"eral million people. Bat the
Government isn't helping 10 iiatten
out real estate trusts.
Campaign Mon:y
Rich men contribute to political
campaign committees Why not? So
do the labor unions. What for? A res
olution passed by the exc ;,tive board
by big labor group in Washington
recently, said in part: Therefore :.
be it resolved that the CIO Political
/ Action Committee Immediately com
mence and aggressively push drives
for the registration OF all workers,
and for the contribution by each
worker of at least one dollar for tie
expenses of the Political Action Com
mittee."
Mark Sullivan, the newspaper col
umnist, says the failure of Congress
to pass restrictive regulatory labor
measures will invite repetition of the
same kind of labor trouble that the
country has recently gene through.
He quotes from an official CIO week
ly paper statement which said:
''The meeting of the CIO executive
board which passed those whereases
and resolve was reported in an Off
cial CIO weekly paper. Tie account
said: The CIO leaders emphasized,
as their major target d4ring the next
several months, the organization OF
:. workers in the Southern States.
A million-dollar-fund, contriba ted or
pledged by the CLOS affiliated unions
will finance the campaign"

Truman Turns Left
President Truman is a genial gen.
tleman but he found it impossible to
manuever the different political ele-
ments into position. Harmonious re-
lations couldn't be established. In
fact even the Democrats drifted
apart. The result of the above is that
TIE President has become rather
stubborn in insisting on acceptance
of his point of view on public ques-
tions. He is no longer tame and pill
able. On the contrary he has swerved
to the left.
