Adults As Well As Children
Should Learn Safety Rules
To the Editor Of The Star:

TO the Editor Of The star:
My small daughter has just brought home
from the Janney School . copy OF . pamph-
let. '"Trafic Safety Can Be Fun" I under
stand that these pamphlets are distributed
to each child by The Star through In
spector Richard H. Mansfield In connection
with the presentation Of his safety program
in the schools Of the District Of Columbia
and nearby Maryland and Virginia.
I think The Star Is to be commended
highly for sponsoring this program for the
sixth consecutive year. Undoubtedly. 1t is
playing an important part in achieving rec
ognition for the city In national contests in
the fields Of trafdc and pedestrian safety.
In the face Of An upward trend III adult
trafac deaths since 1890 there has been a
steady trend in trafic deaths involving chill
dren Of elementary school age. Undoubtedly.
the schools. the safety patrols, the police.
and Dick Mansfield are teaching the young
sters to walk better. Some $4,000 pedestrians
now living in this country would not be
here today had the trend Of child accidents
followed the adult trend.
This proves that safety can be taught and
that The Star and Dick Mansfield are pro-
viding in generous measure the kind Of in
struction which produces such gratifying
results.
Congratulations, and hoping you keep up
the good work. I am

Dr.. Bunehe's Role

Now that he has returned to the United
States to wind up his work as Acting
United Nations Mediator for Palestine,
DR.. Ralph j. Bunche Is in the happy
position of being able to report his mission
successfully accomplished. The Holy Land
still faces the difficult problem of working
out q. final peace settlement, but that
problem-which will be. handled by the
u. N. Cancellation Commission-has been
reduced to manageable proportions as
result of Dr. Buncheis hard and distin-
guished labors In persuading Israeli ana
Arab forces to lay down their arms.
Seven months ago, at the time OF Count
Folke Bernadottes brutal assassination by
Jewish terrorists, the outlook for peace IN
Palestine was anything but bright. AS
soon as he took over the slain mediator's s
responsibilities, however, DR.. Bunche DEM
onstrated his qualifications to discharge
them with distinction. Tactful, firm,
patient and impartial he refused to be
discouraged by repeated truce violations
or by the seeming inability of the opposing
forces to abandon violence and negotiate
In an atmosphere of reason and willingness
to compromise. Today, largely because of
his perseverance and his diplomatic talents,
armistice agreements are in effect between
Israel and every neighboring Arab state
but Syria, which is now discussing one
To all intents and purposes, what this
means is that the military phase of the
struggle has been liquidated, with little
chance that large-scale fighting will be
resumed.
In other words, under DR.. Bunche's
guidance, the shooting war has come to
an end, so that the way is now open for
the u. N. Cancellation Commission to build
a definitive peace settlement on the
foundations already laid by his mission.
For himself, after period of well-earned
rest, he proposes to return to his regular
post hi the trusteeship. department. Of the
United Nations. His future role, however,
is not likely to be confined to that. At
any rate, on the strength of his out
standing Palestine contribution, it seems
safe to assume that his fne gifts will
not be wasted on obscure desk jobs but
will be put to work wherever they can do
the most good.

Mr.. RoyoII's Resignation

The desire Of Army Secretary Royal to
retire to private life is wholly understand
able. Even under normal conditions the
lot of a public servant in Washington Is
a difficult one. President Truman sized
the situation up aptly when, in comment
ing on Mr Royals resignation. he said
the responsibilities of public service require
iron men with thick hides and without
money worries. And while Mr.. Royal was
not lacking in strength of constitution and
ability to take criticism, however unfair
it might be, he still yearned for the
opportunity to resume the more lucrative
career of a lawyer.
1t Is to the North Carolinians credit that
he served his country well during an ex-
ceedingly trying period in the history of
the military establishment. 1t was 4
period of revolutionary transition which
saw his title change from Secretary of
War, now obsolete designation. to that
of Secretary of the Army. new office
created under the unihcation law. This
transition posed unprecedented admins
trative problems that required extreme
patience, quiet persistence and great tact
for their solution. He exercised these
qualities in full measure.
The President said he has not yet found
successor to Mr.. Royal and his whimsical
remarks about what it takes to be an ideal
public official indicate that he realizes the
vacancy will not be easy to I'LL. His task
Is complicated by the fact that the
National Military Establishment Is still in
a state of evolution. Unihcation Is far
from being an accomplished fact. Dis
sension still exists among the armed serv-
ices, and indiscreet talk about knocking
heads together hangs over any one invited
to take the Army post On top of that,
Congress is considering proposals to give
the Secretary Of Defense even greater
head-knocking authority and to reduce
the Army. Navy and Air Force secretary
ships to undersecretary status. All in all,
the prospect is not very encouraging even
to men with tough make-ups and thick
skins. For these reasons the public will
be unusually interested in this appoint
ment-one that is likely to be of great
importance to the changing Department
of the Army now and in the future.

U. N. Economic Warning

A report issued by the United Nations
Economic and Social Council merits close
attention. Compiled by group of eco
nomic experts from data furnished by
u. N. member nations, it finds an "incipi-
ent downturn" in the worlds economy,
asserts that no adequate measures are
being taken to stem the trend toward
what may be a global depression, and
suggests the prompt convocation OF an
international economic conference to avert
the danger.
The report criticizes those international
agencies, the World Bank and the World
Fund, for what is asserted to be their
overcautious lending policies. Yet, in the
same breath, 1t Is admitted that both
agencies were set up primarily to deal
with the reconstruction OF war-devastated
areas and development Of backward"
countries, and the suggestion is made that
their charters be broadened to include
measures intended to stem recession and
promote recovery on global scale. Logic
suggests that the Bank and Fund have
been sticking to the terms OF their
charters and thus cannot be blamed for
failure to act beyond the scope of their
directives and the magnitude of their
present resources.
The reports severest criticisms, however,
are directed against member governments
which are roundly accused of bad faith
and chicanery in failure to implement
commitments to follow courses of inter-
national economic cooperation. The pull
of economic nationalism remains strong.
"The most usual attitude to the Fund on
the part of a member government is that
it considers how 1t can do what 1t wants
to do, from its own purely nationalistic
viewpoint, without legal violation of the
Funds charter" If, now, world recession
deepens, economic nationalism will become
rampant, with resort to the "beggar-my-
neighbor" policies Of the world depression
In the 1930s.
This is not cheering prospect. The
suggested remedy is an international con-
ference which should grant broader
powers for economic agencies, conclude
commodity accords, and grapple con-
structively with pressing exchange prob
lens such as dollar stringency and lack Of
currency convertibility. That. however, is
4 big order, especially IL the report is
correct in its assertions Of the prevalence
Of economic nationalism among the mem-
Der governments. A genuine desire to
cooperate and good faith are vital pre-
requisites to the carrying out of any
remedial measures that could be devised.
In all this, 1t is interesting to note the
attitude of Soviet Russia. In the COM
mittee discussions on the report, the
Soviet spokesman opposed doing anything.
He was especially emphatic against the
proposal for an international economic
conference, asserting that such meet
ing would be used by the United States
to tighten It's grip on the "Marshallized"
countries. That attitude was to be ex-
pected. MOSCOW Il banking heavily on q
