THE ATLANTIC CHARTER
In the Fall of 1945, shortly
after we had returned from a
three months study Of political
and economic conditions in Eu-
rope, which included confer
ences with the then world lead
ers, all of the World Powers
sent representatives to confer
enees in the United States to
discuss and, If possible, to agree
upon a compact which would
prevent another such catastro-
phe as World War II. Naturally,
because of our intense interest
and experience in Europe, we
watched the proceedings, which
eliminated in the United Ma
tions Charter, with great inter
est. When, after months of
arguments, counter-arguments,
and compromises, the charter
was finally agreed upon, we
predicted that il would not
work. We based our predictions
primarily upon the ground that
the veto power reserved in that
charter for anyone of the great
powers would prove fatal. I'm
fortunately, that prediction was
borne out. And, since the adop-
ton of the charter, the world
has, with a nauseating regular
ity, seen Russia veto practically
every proposal that was made
to bring about and guarantee
the goal which we, as the great
est power in the world, sought,
namely, world peace.
Shortly thereafter, we joined
with a number of members of
the Congress from both the
House and the Senate, and by
appropriate resolution, attempt
ed to amend that charter so as
to restrict, among other things,
the use of the veto power. But,
that got no plpace.
Thereafter, our State Depart
ment, working in conjunction
with the officials of England,
France, Italy, and the other
world powers, evolved the plan
of the North Atlantic Pact.
This Pact will soon be dis
cussed and debated throughout
the land. The Pact is a defen-
sive alliance by the Western
democracies for the avowed
purpose of resisting aggression.
1t has been compared with the
Monroe Doctrine. Such alliances
are legal within the framework
of the U. N. Charter. OF course,
such a pact in effect goes back
to the old balance of power
idea. Apparently the world is
fast being divided into two
camps; the communist camp
and the democratic camp. II
cannot be denied that balance
of power can be, and in some
instances in the past, has been
effective in preserving peace.
If the world were divided into
two camps both of near equal
strength neither camp would
likely attack the other. Just as
no potential enemy would at
tack us if he knew in advance
that he would be defeated, it
is reasonable to assume that no
potential enemy will attack a
member of the North Atlantic
Alliance if he knows the same
will provoke war and that he
will, in the end, be defeated. We
cannot afford another war even
If we won it. We must do every
thing possible TO make war i'm
probable. Our best hope of sur
vival is to build and maintain
a nation spiritually and mate
rally strong, This means patri-
otto peace-time devotion to
civic righteousness. This means
resistance to domestic termites
that forever gnaw on our foun-
dations.
Regardless of how desirable
the objective sought by the
United Nations Charter might
The Chronicle-star combined with the Moss Point advertiser., 1949-04-01

be. we might as well be real
istie enough to realize that.
without something like the
North Atlantic Pact to back it
up, the charter itself would
mean little more than a debat-
ing society. The proposed North
Atlantic Pact provides the only
language. that a dictatorship
like Russia understands-firm-
ness and force, il necessary.

as to what they had to offer.
They decided upon the same
principles on which all big citi-
es have been built-modern
conveniences that would make
it a decent place in which to
live. They first began to work
for rural identification, seek
ing the cooperation of Pasca-
goula and Moss Point business
men and the donations of the
entire community consisting of
all faiths, creeds and color.
The first organized church
was built and the community
began to grow. There r now
three churches. The power lines
came in, then black top roads
and rural mail delivery. This
little sleepy community began
to grow. Instead of property
selling by the acre it began to
sell by the front foot. Houses
were and still are being built,
not by landlords, but by owners
themselves which gives a sense
of security. Not one house built
during the rush of World War
Il has been RACED and there are
no vacancies. III cooperation
with the county agriculture
agent residents are raising bet
ter stock-with the old rangers
fast disappearing - beautiful
flowers and thoroughbred
chickens. The All Club is at
work and the finest bayou fish
ing in Jackson county is avail
able. The Pascagoula singing
convention meets the fourth
Sunday in each month in this
growing community. A gener-
al store and market are owned
and operated by your neighbor.
A bus route runs for the con-
venience of the people. All
these accomplishments were
brought about by unity and CO.
operation and the realization
that they could have the high
American standard of living
through a determination to con-
tinue to build and grow.

with our help the free nations OF
Europe can recreate those condi-

which men can live with decency

Unity Stressed.
Mr.. Hoffman said that this Is a

free nations Is "our one best hope
for a world without war"
Mr.. Hoffman asserted that

"I never lost faith" he said,

In an address before the Ma

If our aid to Europe were halted

to undo all the accomplishments
of the past year and a half.
"The frank truth is that while
the flames of economic catastrophe
have been dampened down and
are no longer easily visible, the fire
has not yet been put out. Let's
not fool ourselves. Europe Is still
