WASHINGTON, d,

WASHINGTON, DC. - A tall,
lean, square-jawed, broad-shoul-
dered man sits in a temporary Of
flee in one of the many converted
government buildings-a short two
blocks from the White House
whose name is destined to become
well known to millions of Ameri-
cans.
He is Willard F. Caldwell, former
governor Of Florida, who has been
handed the tremendous responsible
fty of the nations civil defense and
who will head up volunteer army
Of civilian Americans which will
total some 100000 men and wom-
IN in every state of the union.
His immediate job is to weld to-
gether small force of approx
mately 5000 paid employees, ap-
proximately 1000 of whom will be
administrative workers here in
Washington, the rest to become field
officers in various states and stra-
tegic areas.
At the same time he must start
from scratch to train these people,
who will in turn train his 20-mil-
ion-man army, in the new field of
civilian defense
Governor Caldwell must come up
with the answers to these questions:
What can 1 do to protect myself
and my neighbors if an atomic
bomb is dropped in or near my
Browning chief. [volume] (Browning, Mont.) 1941-1953, 1951-03-02

They believed because they
wanted to believe, despite the
fate that had marked the
League Of Nations and the
hoax that had been perpetrat-
ed as the Atlantic Charter. 1t
was to stop aggression on the
part of large nations against
small ones.
When the North Korean Commu.
nists invaded South Korea, the
United Nations promptly asked
President Truman to stop that in
vasion and to name General Mac
Arthur supreme commander OF
the United Nations forces. At first,
it was American troops and Amer
lean money that was opposing ag-
gression. Later a few member ma
tons contributed in a small way
When the aggresSor became Red
China with its 700 million people
and a business customer in a big
way of several nations and when
the United States was demanding
that other nations contribute their
full part in supporting the defense
of South Korea, the debate began.
After more than a month of talk
it is still going on.
The principles involved mean
nothing. The one thing being con-
sidered is the amount of business
each nation stands to lose 1t is on
the rock of selfish interests that
the United Nations has run aground.
The United Nations has proven
no more substantial as a war pre-
tentative than did the League of
Nations. It is only a debating So
ciety in which principles are for
gotten when selfish business inter-
eStS are endangered.

national boundaries of each
against any aggression on the
part of the larger and stronger
nations.
Hope of what the Charter would
accomplish was not entirely dis
. sipated until President Roosevelt
at the Yalta conference gave to
Stain the Presidents approval to
the taking back the three Baltic
provinces that had fought for and
won their independence. That was
done as appeasement for Russia,
and was in direct violation of the
promises of the much Wanted At
lantic Charter.
People of the small nations had
not questioned the Presidents word
when he announced the Atlantic
Charter, and its provisions had an
nounced the American President
as a great friend of small nations.
They did not know that the charter
was merely dream, and to find
it had no factual reality proved
sad awakening and a great dis
appointment. To them it lowered
their appreciation of the United
States.
The third major disappointment
is the failure of the United Nations
to be anything other than an inter-
national debating society, of which
each member has only the wish to
protect its own selfish business in
tereStS.
When 1t was organized in
San Francisco less than six
years ago, it was hailed by the
people Of all nations, with the
possible exception of Russia,
as marking the end of wars.

By Wright A. Patterson

TN THE PAST QUARTER of
L century or less, the people of the
world have suffered three major
disappointments. The first was the
failure of the League of Nations,
of which President Woodrow Wilson
was the instigator following World
War I, but which the us. senate
refused to accept, and we never
became a member of that world
organization.
The people of the world hailed
the league as means of pre-
venting all future wars, but it
did not. 1t had only talk. no
provision for positive action. 1t
failed completely when Italy
Instituted arm ed aggression
against Ethiopia, and the defeat
of that small nation was the
rock on which the League of
Nations was wrecked.
The second disappointment was
the loudly acclaimed Atlantic char
ter which, in reality, was never
anything more than hoax, a prod
uct of a dream of President Frank
lin D. Roosevelt, following con-
ference of himself and Winston
Churchill aboard battleship in the
Atlantic. Shortly after the announce
ment of the formulation of the At
lantic Charter, Churchill issued a
statement, saying he did not ac-
cept the head of his British
majesty's government for the pur-
pose of liquidating his majesty's
empire.
The charter was presumed to
guarantee the people of each
nation to choose the form Of
government a majority in each
wanted and to guarantee the

Bill slid off the stool and went
| over. No kid should look like that.
He fished out his nickel.
Here, kid. It's about due. Let
me show you how"
He whanged the lever down
and gave the machine a little
whack at the side. The nickels
poured out. As he filled her
hands with them, she gasped.
"But they're yours"
"Na-ah! G'wan and take 'em,
and then 60 across the street and

THE door slammed and Bill looked

I've covered every joint like this,

place, but knowing | would. You
always had the crazy idea you
could get rich the easy way, ever
since you hit the jackpot the first
time you played when you were a

She was out of breath now.
Hey, how do YOU know so
much?" he demanded
'I'm Kathy, your sister Kathy.
Oh, Bill, Mons sick and she's
been asking for you. You've got
to come home with me-"
yeah? You are Kathv then! And
they'd want me to come home-even
this way? Na-ah!" He flicked at his
ragged cuff.
"Sure. They knew you weren't

back. They just want you to come
home-to make Nom better"
Her big grey eyes were yelling
with tears and her hair hung down

"What'l it be-porterhouse?"
Bill grinned. Hand me a menu
I might want breast of guinea"
Then he noticed the girl. She stood
by the pinbau machine watching
the metal balls roll down as fell
low played. There was something
about her that made Bill feel un-
easy inside. The rain had pelted her
hair into thin honey-colored wisps
around her small face. She Rugged
her old polo coat about her. There
was a searching look in her grey
eyes as she scanned each face. They
made him think of somebody.
That was it! She reminded him
Of the way his kid sister, Kathy
might have looked. Kathy had that
same kind Of hair and that same ex-
pectant look on her face, even at
twelve when he left home. Kathy
was probably quite a girl by now! It
made him vince to think of home.
He watched this one lingering the
change in her cheap purse. 1t was
only chicken-feed, but she selected
nickel carefully and put it in the
slot. Somehow her eyes were too
bright as she followed the dancing
balls down the incline. 1t looked as
if a lot depended upon whether or
not she won.

Savitt kept Larsen on the run

Foremost candidates may be the
six men top-seeded by AAU off,
