Horse Herd District

Bedrock to Bolton cannot be in
cluded in the Flathead county herd

Montana law requires that an

of disagreement and delay
In the field Of disarmament, he
added, there has been no prog
ress other than the mere draft
ing Of a plan of work.
The economic d%isloca1ion and
instability resulting from the wal
actually is more serious now than
i. was year ago, Lie added, but
the blame can be placed on "the
basic political situation which un-
derlies and affects all internation-
al political, economic and social
activity"
Peace Treaties Undrafted
The tact that the main peace
treaties still are undrafted, let
alone unsigned, was emphasized
by Lie as the ''outstanding'' cause
of the worlds troubles.
THE importance Of these trea-
ties, not only to the future of the
United Nations, but to the future
of the whole world, cannot be over
emphasized" he said.
Lie added, however, that the
peace treaties in turn were only a
part Of "a larger political complex
which operates to delay and frus.
trate" activities in the UN and in
other international endeavor.
To overcome that obstacle, he
said, all people of the world must
"apply ourselves seriously to
a more general effort to explore
and resolve the fears and conflict
ing interests which are at the root
of our difficulties"
We Can Have Peace
Treading softly between the
western countries and Russia, Lie
complained that "it is said often.
all too often, that we are heading
towards a new disaster"
Actually, he said, it is just as
realistic to say "the situation is
I. potentially very promising
and we can, if all strive for
it, move quickly and steadily to-
wards a new era of peace, pros
perity and civilization"
II do not believe that this pres
ent world situation is as threaten
ing as it is often made out to BIZ.
I am convinced that no responsible
statesman in any country can, or
does, contemplate the prospect Of
war;"
Lie said it was obvious that in
the past year the UN had made
great strides in setting up in
ternational machinery for settling
world political, economic and So
cial problems. He said that the
organization now was equipped to
undertake responsibility for all
big problems in those fields if
member governments cooperate.
