Catholic Unit Reports
On U.N. Achievements

In spite Of political failures, the
United Nations has made real
and substantial achievements" dur
ing its first three years, especially
in the economic and social sphere,
the Education Committee of the
Catholic Association for Interna-
tional Peace said last night.
The appraisal was prepared by
DR.. Raymond F. Mccoy for United
Nations Week. He saw as the
chief obstacle to greater successes
"the divisive struggle of the great
powers over the drafting and execu-
ton of peace treaties"
After three years of u. N. his
tory, the struggle between Russia
and the Western Powers threatens
to bring on World War III" the
statement said. "On the treaties,
as such, however, the U. N. has done
nothing and probably can do
nothing, since the u. N. is based
on the assumption that the big
powers would agree on peace treat
les"
DR.. Mccoy concluded with the
observation that there still is hope
for agreement on the treaties
through the Security Council, the
Assembly and the Economic and
Social Council.

ally the lines OF a prepared tram
script but soft-pedalled his planned
reference to the States Rights DEM
ocratic Party headed by Gov. j.
Strom Thurmond of South Carolina.
He was applauded vigorously when
he said, ut is unfair for any group
OF men to claim that the President
Of the United States I" Is un-
friendly to the interests of this
section Of the United States. 1t is
not true"
In contrast to the large welcome
ing delegations which have been
greeting the Senator on his arrival
at airports In other cities where
he has spoken, he was met here
only by Senator Feazel, and local
ofhcials provided no escort from the
airport to his hotel downtown.
It was the first large city in which
such an escort was not provided.
Senator Barkley reminded his
audience that Southern Democrats
would still their own voice in Gov
ernment if they voted for any one
except President Truman.

Regular Veterans Group
Warns AGAINST Disarminq

The Regular Veterans Association
warned here yesterday against "any
false preaching that we can now
disarm."
In a statement issued from ma
tional headquarters by National
Commander H. David Frackman,
the organization composed of serv-
icemen and veterans of the regu-
lar establishments of the armed
services described the United Ma
tions as "our only hope for peace
Nothing should be done by the
United States to weaken this posi-
tion," the statement said.
Declaring that "the time has come
when law and order must be OBJ
served internationally as we'll as
nationally" the association stated
that "the day will come when the
United Nations, backed by an in
ternational military force, will be
the sole instrumentality for settling
disputes among nations of the
world"
Until the United Nations is able
to enforce its DEGREES, the de.
mocracies Of the world must remain
strong militarily to resist the efforts
Of those who seek to destroy ou1
liberties" the association held.
