UNITED NATIONS RADIO

UNI Eli NAllONO hADIO
A broadcasting station which operates
"A hours daily without owning a single trans
mitter, which has famous artists and states
men appearing on its programs as volun-
teers, and has staff smaller than is used
on single evening show on any u. S. net
work is genuinely unique. Such is the
United Nations RadiO-TeeViSiOn station
It's main job is to furnish programs about
the UN for rebrOadcast by national or inde-
pendent stations and networks.
Though it is not true in America, in many
countries the sole source of radio news about
the UN is this station. So remarkable are
the programs that two u. S. networks use
them cOast-tO-cOast early each evening,
when radio time is at a premium.
Tn radio programs are prepared in 63
languages, and are broadcast over leased or
donated transmitters. 1t services blanket
the world. Since no station is required to
use its services, its programs must stand on
their own merits. Fortunately, the standards
are high.
In addition to live programs, UN Radio
maintains a large transcription service.
which last year sent out 4,731 discs and
tapes for broadcast. 1t also distributes TV
klneScOpes of UN events.
The UN Radio, which in economy and
could well be used as a model for
the United States information service, is
telling the United Nations story all over the
world, describing not only the political de-
bates but the actual struggle that goes on
daily to create hope in peoples everywhere.

WHAT AROIIT STRIKES2

STRIKES affecting the public interest
should be investigated early and, some people
would say, forbidden. American thinking
has come to this point as a result of strikes
OF telephone and other utility workers and
of the railroad men a few years ago. But
where should the line be drawn?
The question arises anew through the
strike OF the Philadelphia employees of park
ing lots which has aroused the indignation
OF many citizens. This strike certainly af
fects the public convenience, as it has forced
many people to the unheard of extremity of
leaving their cars at home and taking public
transportation to work. But would this an
noyance Justify governmental interference?
A more serious situation might be pre-
sented II the grocery store clerks struck. or
milk drivers. Almost every strike inconVen-
fences some groups of people, But is incon-
Venlence justification enough for invoking
governmental injunction? Some day the
whole question will have to be reviewed and
decisions reached.
Meanwhile citizens who are most indig-
nant when strike breaks into their daily
routine are frequently those who are even
angrler when government regulation ex-
tends into the details of their own busi-
nesses. Before calling upon the government
TO put strict limitations upon anyone's ac-
tlYltleS, it's always good idea to review
what freedoms you would willingly sacrifice
to government control if your freedoms were
classified by few others as annoying in

10y MEN

Comparatively few people, it is safe to
say, know what the specialists" do who
trade on the floor of the New York Stock
EXchange-Or have ever heard Of them.
They number only $50. But they perform a
service Of great Importance to the financial
structure of American industry and to the
millions of people who own stocks in our
corporations.
The job of the pecialists-Without going
into technical details of their works to
maintain orderly markets. They insure an
investor always finding someone who wants
to do exactly the opposite from what he
wants to dO-and at price very close to the
last one qOuted. That means that they must
try to keep the prices of stocks from either
falling or rising too fast, by finding buyers
to match the sellers and sellers to match the
buyers, as the case may be- : If that is i'm
possible they buy Oh their own account, with
their own money, and take the risks.
A dramatic example of their worth Oc-
Cured with the stock market break of Sep
tember 26, following the Presidents heart
attack. The market was sWamped with sell
orders. An absence of buying support en-
dangered its vital services. The specialists
moved. Their purchases on that day came
to S73,400,0 0,0O0-and they had no possible
knowledge of what the market might do
thereafter.
Time magazine says of the specialists
They rank among the last great chance
takers OF free enterprise, are probably in the
only business where man can lose fortune
in few hours" We need people with that
kind OF daring in free and growing nation

 Fair Book Prepared
 Several changes in various di- visions will be noted in the 1855 Valley Fair premium book. Changes include additions in some divisions; changes in prizes in others and several new super intendents.
 Hope for Museum
 Discussions on moving the log cabin located at the center rear of the fairgrounds to the front and using it as museum for Ma tanuska Valley and Alaskan ar tifacts were held during the meeting. Fair President 1T. A. Mover offered his services as museum curator and offered to help in collecting Alaskan arts and crafts and mOmentoS of the past. Board members hope that in time the building will house a fine collection of artifacts and feel that if the collecting is not started soon many of the valu- able momentos will be gone. The cabin itself is the only one of it's kind and for this reason board members hope to be able to pre- serve 1t. The chimney construc- ton is especially unique for this part of the country. The cabin was first built as a sample house during the time when construc- ton work was in it's early stages in the colony project. It was To- cated three or four miles out of town where 1t remained for sew eral years before being moved into town. It was finally moved onto the Fairgrounds for Boy Scout use and has since been used for wildlife and sports dis plays during the Valley Fairs.
 If plans for the building ma- terialize, it will be moved, re- habilitated, and maintained. Some of the suggestions include a sod roof, the erection of an authentic Alaskan cache along side of the cabin and landscap- ing all with photogenic beauty in mind.
