 The U. N. report was prepared by the state department and MT. Truman submitted it to Congress with a letter setting forth his per sonal views.
 The President praised highly the work of the United Nations in settling the Indonesian dispute, the Arab-Jewish fishing in Pales- tine, and. the India-Pakistan trou- bleS over KaShmir.
 He said that many lives have been saved" as a result of the U. N. work on these disputes last year and that such attacks on spe- cific problems as well as it's gen. eral work in behalf of peace showed that the U. N. lis distin- gushing between realities and il- lusions" and is striving for "solid gains through actual perform ance."

for which Friedrich Douglass fought

"In this period of crisis, it is
vital that we become more aggres-

Democracy a living reality only
