son of a Confederate soldier
who was born at 923 Twelfth

when Virginia seeded and joined
the 47th Virginia Infantry in
Westmoreland County. Va, at the
age of Is.
His father had been employed
in the General Land Office but re-
signed on the outbreak of the war
and returned to his native State.
He had lived at 1928 New York

throughout the war except when
wounded at the battle of Fair
Oaks or Seven Pines, and when
captured and sent to Point Look
out near the end of the conflict.
He afterward returned to this
city, married a Washington girl
and raised a family. He died in
1923 at the age of 80 and is buried
in the Confederate section of Ar
lington Cemetery.
For many years he was Secre-
tary of the local Confederate
Veterans Association and served
several terms as commander. I
have no photography or diary. but
do have an accumulation of letters
that he wrote his sister while in
the Army. Some of them relate
interesting incidents and I have

brothers and am 76 years of age.
Also have an interesting article
written by an aunt, one of my IA

the blockade of the Potomac in
1862, coming through Southern
Maryland and returning the same
way, crossing the Potomac in the
vicinity of Colonial Beach, where
the river is several miles wide,
in a rowboat on a December night.

Seek To Achieve Controls.
We intend to build up strength
for peace as long as that is neces-
sary. But at the same time, we must
continue to strive, through the
United Nations, to achieve interna-
tional control of Atomic energy and
the reduction of ornaments and

fective disarmament would make

Disarmament is the course which
the United States would prefer to
take. 1t is the course which most
nations would like to adopt. It is
the course which the United Nations
from its earliest beginnings has
been seeking to follow.
For nearly five years. two Com
missions of the United Nations have
been working on the problem OF
disarmament. One Com1nission has
been concerned with the elimination
of atomic weapons and the other
with the reduction of other types
of armaments and of armed forces
Thus far, these commissions have
not been successful in obtaining

effort have served to bring to the
attention of all nations the three
basic principles upon which any
successful plan of disarmament
must rest.
Must Include All Weapons.
First, the plan must include all
kinds of weapons. Outlawing any
particular kind of weapon is not
enough. The conflict in Korea bears
tragic witness to the fact that ag-
gression, whatever the weapons used,
brings frightful destruction.
Second, the plan must be pased on
unanimous agreement. A majority
of nations is not enough. No plan
of disarmament can work unless it
includes every nation having sub
stantial armed forces. One-sided
disarmament is sure invitation to
aggression.
Third, the plan must be fool
proof. Paper promises are not
enough. Disarmament must be based
on safeguards which will insure the
compliance of all nations. The safe
guards must be adequate to give
immediate warning of any threat
ened violation. Disarmament must
be policed continuously and thor
oughly. It must be founded upon
free and open interchange Of in
formation across national borders.
These are simple, practical prin-
ciples. If they were accepted and
carried out, genuine disarmament
would be possible.
Time and Effort Needed.
It is true that, even if initial
agreement were reached, tremen-
dous difficulties would remain. The
task of working out the successive
steps would still be complex one
and would take long time and
much effort. But the fact that this
process is so complex and so diff
cult Is no reason for us to give up
hope of ultimate success.
The will of the world for peace is
too strong to allow us to give up in
this effort. We cannot permit the
history of our times to record that
we failed by default.
We must explore every avenue
which offers any chance of bringing
success to the activities of the
United Nations in this vital area.
Much valuable work has already
been done by the two Disarmament
Commissions on the different tech
nical problems confronting them. I
believe it would be useful to explore
ways in which the work of these
Commissions could now be more
closely brought together. One pos
sibility to be considered is whether
their work might be revitalized if
carried forward in the future
through new and consolidated
Disarmament Commission.
Only Course Possible.
But until an effective system of
disarmament Is established, let us
be clear about the task ahead. The
only course the peace-loving nations
can take in the present situation Is
to create the armanients needed to
make the world secure against ag-
gression.
That is the course to which the
United States is now firmly COM
mitted. That is the course we will
continue to follow as long as it is
necessary.
The United States has embarked
upon the course of increasing its
armed strength only for the pur-
pose of helping to keep the peace.
We pledge that strength to uphold
the principles of the Charter of the

opportunity for the large and the
small alike to have their voices
heard on these issues. Here the in
terests of every country can be con-
sidered in the settlement of prob
lens which are of common concern.
We believe that negotiation is an
essential part of this peaceful pro-
cess. The United States, as one of
the members of the United Nations,
is prepared now, as always, to en-
ter into negotiations We insist only
that negotiations must be entered
into in good faith and be governed
throughout by spirit of willingness
to reach proper solutions.
While we will continue to take
advantage of every opportunity
here in the United Nations and else
where - to settle differences by
peaceful means, we have learned
from hard experience that we can
not rely upon negotiation alone to
preserve the peace.
Five years ago, after the blood
shed and destruction of World War
II, many of us hoped that all ma
tions would work together to make
sure that war could never happen
again. We hoped that international
cooperation, supported by the
strength and moral authority of the
United Nations, would be sufficient
to prevent aggression.
Threat of Aggression.
But this was not to be the case.
Although many countries promptly
disbanded their wartime armies,
other countries continued to main
tain forces SO large that they posed
constant threat to aggression. And
this year, the invasion of Korea
has shown that there are some who
will resort to outright war, con-
trary to the principles of the Char
ter, if it suits their ends.
In these circumstances, the United
Nations, If it is to be an effective
instrument for keeping the peace,
has no choice except to use the COL
lective strength of it's members to
curb aggression.
To do so, the United Nations must
be prepared to use force. The United
Nations did use force to curb ag-
gression in Korea, and by so doing
has greatly strengthened the cause
of peace. am glad that additional
steps are being taken at this ses-
sion to prepare for quick and ef-
fective action in any future case of
aggression.
/ Resolution For Peace.
The Resolution on United Action
for Peace which is now being con-
sidered by the General Assembly
recognized three important princi-
Piles:
To maintain the peace, the United
Nations must be able to learn the
facts about any threat of aggres-
sion. Next, it must be able to call
quickly upon the member nations to
act If the threat becomes serious.
Above all, the peace-loving ma
tions must have the military
strength, when called upon, to act
decisively to put down aggression.
The peace-loving nations are
building that strength.
However, much they may regret
the necessity, they will continue to
build up their own strength until
they have created forces strong
enough to preserve peace under the
United Nations. They will do all
that is required to provide a de-
fense aggression. They will do that

United Nations. We believe that the
peace-loving members of the United
Nations join us in that pledge.
I believe that the United Nations.
strengthened by these pledges, will
bring us nearer to the peace we
seek.
We know that the difficulties
ahead are great. We have learned
from hard experience that there is
no easy road to peace.
Solemn Obligation.
We have a solemn obligation to
the peoples we represent to continue
our combined efforts to achieve the
strength that will prevent aggres-
sion.
At the same time, we have an
equally solemn obligation to con-
tinue our efforts to find solutions
to the major problems and issues
that divide the nations. The settle
ment of these differences would
make possible a truly dependable
and effective system for the reduc-
ton of armaments.
Although the possibility of attain
ing that goal appears distant today
we must never stop trying. For its
attainment would release immense
resources for the good of all man.
kind. It would free the nations to
devote more of their energies to
wiping out poverty, hunger, and in
justice.
II real disarmament were achieved
the nations of the world, acting
through the United Nations, could
join in greatly enlarged program
OF mutual aid. AS the cost of main
tanning armaments decreased, every
nation could greatly increase its
contributions to advancing human
welfare. All of us could then pool
even greater resources to support
the United Nations in its war
against want.
Meaning to Old Promise.
In this way, our armaments would
be transformed into foods, medicine
tools for use in underdeveloped
areas, and into other aids for human
advancement. The latest discoveries
OF science could be made available
to men all over the globe. Thus, we
could give real meaning to the old
promise that swords shall be beaten
into plowshares, and that the ma
tions shall not learn war any more
Then, man can turn his great in
ventiveness, his tremendous energies
and the resources with which he has
been blessed. to creative efforts
Then we shall be able to realize the
kind of world which has been the
vision of man for centuries.
This is the goal which we lnust
keep before us-ano the vision in
which we must never lose faith. This
will be our inspiration, and, with
Gods help, we shall attain our goal
Evening star., 1950-10-24

And when new nations have
achieved independence, it helps
them to preserve and develop their
freedom.
Furthermore, the United Nations
is strengthening the concept of the
dignity and worth of human beings
The protection of human rights is
essential if we are to achieve bet
ter life for people. The effort of the
United Nations to push ahead to-
ward an even broader realization OF
these rights is one of its most i'm
portant tasks.
So far, this work of the United
Nations for human advancement is
only a beginning of what 1t can be
and will be in the future. The
United Nations is learning through
experience. 1t is growing in prestige
among the peoples of the world. The
increasing effectiveness of its ef-
forts to improve the welfare of hu-
man beings is opening up a new
page in history.
Will Be Put To Test.
The skills and experience OF the
United Nations in this field will be
put to the test now that the fight
ing in Korea is nearly ended. The
reconstruction of Korea as a free,
united, and self-supporting nation
is an opportunity to show how in
ternational cooperation can lead
to gains in human freedom and well
fare.
The work of the United Nations
for human advancement, important
as it is, can be fully effective only
if we can achieve the other great
objective of the United Nations, a
just and lasting peace.
At the present time, the fear OF
another great international war
overshadows all the hopes of man
kind. This fear arises from the
tensions between nations and from
the recent outbreak of open aggres-
sion in Korea. We in the United
States believe that such a war can
be prevented. We do not believe
that war is inevitable.
One of the strongest reasons for
this belief is our faith in the United
Nations.
Three Great Roles.
The United Nations has three
great roles to play in preventing
wars.
First: 1t provides a way for nego-
tiation and the settlement of dis
putes among nations by peaceful,
means.
Second: 1t provides way of uti-
lizing the collective strength of
member nations, under the Charter
to prevent aggression.
Third: 1t provides way through
which, once the danger of aggres-
sion is reduced, the nations can be
relieved of the burden of arma-
ments.
All of us must help the United
Nations to be effective in perform
ing these functions.
The Charter obligates all of us
to settle our disputes peacefully. To-
day is an appropriate occasion for
us solemnly to reaff1rm our obliga-
tions under the Charter.
Within the spirit and even the
letter of the Charter we should &C
even further. We must attempt to
find peaceful settlements OF under
lying situations or tensions before
they harden into mutual disputes.
The basic issues in the world to-
day affect the fate of millions. Here
