GEORGE E. SOKOLSkf
 THE RECORD OF U. N.

In one of the best defenses ever made of the United Nations, War ren Austin, United States Amoas- sador to that body, said:
 "On the side of collective se- curity we observe that every in- ternational disturbance which has threatened the peace of the world during the short life of the United Nations was brought to the United Nations. Tn no case has there been failure and in no case did the United Nations have peace forces to employ. In every case pacific methods prevailed to prevent or confine the fighting and to lead toward settlement I need only to mention Berlin, Palestine, Indo- nesia, Kashmir, Greece, and Korea to remind you. that, to some de- gree. the United Nations has sue ceeded in every case. The direction is the main point but in fact in some of these cases the United Nations has advanced a great dis tance toward the ultimate settle ment.
 "In other words, there is the proof that the United Nations Is

CATHOLIC JUDGES
 TO IGNORE UNJUST
 LAWS, RULES POPE

GASTEL GANDOLFO, Nov. 8-lR Pope Plus XII, in an apparent blow against Communist controlled courts, has declared that Roman Catholic judges must never recog- nize unjust laws.
 He ruled that Catholic judges bear grave responsibility for the application of laws contrary to Christian concepts.
 The Pope laid down four funda- mental rules for Catholic judges a1ld lawyers in an address to mem bers of an Italian Catholic law yers congress here yesterday. The speech was made public today.
 The rules appeared aimed at strengthening the will of Catholic jurists still active in Communist controlled Eastern Europe. They may apply especially to Czechoslo- vakia, current focus of the church state battle, where the Communist regime recently imposed new church control law.
 The Pope also ruled that "tne Catholic judge cannot pronounce unless for motives of great mo- ment, a decision of civil divorce twhere it does exist) in a marriage valid before God and the church.

initiation of the institutions of
 , civilization.
 The big issues remain the Balk-
 ans and China, as they have been {; the principal issues during the i whole of this century. World War II started in the Balkans as World 1 War II started in Manchuria. The error in World War I was not to limit the conflict; the error in World War II was to fail to re- ! cognize that the downfall of Japan would be accompanied by the down. fall of China I wrote a book, The Tinderbox of Asia" in 1892 to prove that, and while the idea then was anathema to most Americans and
 Chinese, events hs1e proved it to be correct.
 There was no period, between 1899 and 1922 that peace between the United States and Japan was not possible on Americas terms. All the evidence at the Tokyo trials proves that to be so, as does coi- lateral data. It is clear that the chief impeachment to peace was neither China nor Japan, but Pre- sident Roosevelt, Secretary of State Hull, and Secretary of War Stim- son who wanted to knock Japan out and were sure they could do it.
 Their certainty has been justi- fled by the course of events, but at what price! The defeat of Japan was, for the United States, la most costly pyrrhic victory, for we opened the door to the con
 quest of China by Soviet Russia
 and the need and expense for the defense of the remainder of Asia.
 Had this subject been discussablc in the open as the Israel-Arab
 problem has been, we might have had Japan on our side as an ally in World War II as she had becn in World War I. Of course such speculation is futile now and the failure of the League of Nations in the Manch- urian and Ethiopian issues gave little encouragement for faith in world organizations. Nevertheless, i the task of our century is to con- fine conflicts, to encourage open diplomacy, to fight international 1 secrecy. If the discussions at the United Nations sometimes do not
 rise above the level of high school debate, it is nonetheless a place l to let off live steam, and that has | its value.
