Public Faith In United Nations
Found Growing In National Poll
BY GEORGE GALLUP
Director, American Institute Oh
Public Opinion

o OF
PRINCETON, N. j., Jan. e.
The United Nations starts off the
new year in a greatly changed at
mosphere of public opinion in this
country.
For the first time in eight months
of polling, the Institute finds that
more people are satisfied with the
progress of the U. N. than r dis
satisfied.
At one point, last July, a sub
stantial majority of those express
ing an opinion on the subject in
dictated dissatisfaction. Today, the
weight of opinion is on the other
side.
The change has taken place only
within recent weeks, for as late
as November the poll found the
country still taking a dim view
Of the accomplishments of the
U. N.
The trend of sentiment is
shown in the following polls.
care you satisfied OF dissat-
isfied with the progress that
the United Nations has made
to date?"
Salts Dissat- No
fled isfied opin.
May, 1916 37% 37% $3.50
July ....--26 40 rs
Nov. --27 43 30
TODAY 80 80 20
If the vote is confined just to
those expressing an opinion, with
the undecided eliminated, the trend
would be as follows:
Vote of Those With Opinions
Satisfied Dissatisfied
May, 1916 500 500
July ----35 65
Nov. --39 81
TODAY "a 46
The changed attitude is I'm
d%oubtedly a reflection of the prog
-ess made during the final weeks
of the U. N. session last month,
when many problems that had hung
fire were settled and when the
Russian delegates showed a greater
spirit of agreement and cooperation
than had been the case before.
Institute polls have also found
a different attitude in this country
toward Russia from that which pre-
vailed earlier. AS reported Friday.
the weight of sentiment today is
that Russia will cooperate with US
in world affairs. Last March the
majority polled felt that Russia
would not cooperate.
To a great extent the country's
appraisal of how much progress
the U. N. is making at any given
time is conditioned by the be-
havior of the Russian delegates.

IN PREVIOUS polls the veterans
of World War II were one of the
most outspoken groups in express
ing dissatisfaction with the U. N.
They felt that there is too much
pickering and arguing" and that the
worlds statesmen were not keep
ing faith with the soldiers who had
given their lives on the battlefront
to make world peace possible.
Today veterans questioned by
the Institute show far less disap-
pointment ove- the progress of
the U. N.
In the latest poll the vote of
veterans compares as follows with
their vote last July.

Us the Negroes greatest need here.
The racial condition here is far
above the average for a town in

this city would be the greatest
aid to the outreach of Negro
progress. He would be hired by
both visitor and citizen. He would
grow rich overnight and his legal
service here would stand him out
in the nation as towering oak in
a wide forest. We need also
"A Negro cleaner here. We have
many pressing shops but | know
If no cleaning plant. We need
one and / need to be able to look
the cleaner in the eye and bawl
him out for poorly cleaning if he
deserves it. We can't do this now
because all the Negro pressers
send their work to another race
and they promise to bawl them
out for us but we know they
don't because our clothes still
come back with the same odors
under the arms of our coats. If
you pressers don't put up one
within six months | will have to
do so myself Miss Willie
Erwin Stevenson, daughter of Mr.

Group Meeting

The Montana Study Group met
ln the Library Tuesday evening with
Mrs. R. w. Leduc as leader for the
topic HOW TO MAKE LIFE BET
TER IN OUR TOWN. The job of
making life better in a community
IS not an easy one and there are
many problems to solve. The text
LIFE IN MONTANA states THE
bb of making life better in our
community requires an approach on
wide front The quality of the
human being is what counts.
Just what is meant by the quail
ity of the human being, or the
quality of human life, is hard to
make clear. For all of us it prob
ably means a good deal more than
We can say. 1t refers, of course,
% standards or values that we find
Ia living, and il includes q vide
range of interests from the physical
economic, and social 20 the moral,
ertistic and appreciative aspects of
life called spiritual. A high quality
OF living usually means q kind of
living in which all Of these valued
Interests and activities have a
place In the good life social
and individual interests are not in
conflict"
One of the phases of modern life
Is a seeming disintegration Of the
link between community and in
dividual life. Mass technology is
one of the causes. A persons job
and amusement are widely separa-
led.
There are three modern tech
niques among others to be con-
iidered which may help stabilize
our life and they are (l) Coopera-
ion, which to be valuable must be
voluntary, (2) More direct control
If the instruments whereby indivi-
iuals earn their living, and (3) A /

man school in Kalispell. Robert H.

wage increases contemplated, un-
til the Montana legislature meets
to enact laws to insure all school
financial support adequate 70 main
tain a good school program and
to offer wage scale sufficiently
high to attract competent men and
women to enter the teaching pro-
fession." The second resolution
called for an adequate uniform sal
ary schedule throughout Montana.
