U. N. Report Sees Threat
In Population Explosion
By SIDNEY WISE

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y.-The
dangers of a social revolution
fermenting in Asia, Africa and
Latin America are being studied
by major council of the United
Nations.
The basis of this review, q 49,
page Report of the World Social
Situation" traces the revolution
to ian explosive growth" Of cities
in the underdeveloped regions and
a startling increase of population
in some countries at rates higher
than any that have ever been
known in the history of the

The global report. a joint effort
of the U. N. and four of its spe-
cialized agencies, was specially
prepared for the 18-nation Eco
nomic and Social Council which
has opened its summer session
in Geneva.
The report contains many OPP
timistic accounts of social prog
resS throughout the world since
1852 when the first worldwide
social report of the u. N. was
issued.
But beneath these glowing &C
counts of progress are somber
warnings of a vast social up
heaval which is increasing crime
and mob violence and posing ur-
gent problems of poverty. hunger
and unrest for more than half
the people of the world.
Progress Creotes Problems
The main impelling force of this
upheaval, according to the report,
is the uneven nature of the prog
ress made in the nonindustrialized
regions of the globe.
1.-THE very process Of develop
ment," says the report, has been
creating new problems as it has
been solving old ones"
For example, it points out that
the introduction of modern medi-

The latest governmental con-
vulsion is an exception, however,
for there is much more at stake
than in most previous ones. This
crisis has deepened inter-party
antagonisms and dangerously po-

threatening Italy's newly-regained
prestige as a democratic power
and the stability of the country's

these capital goods will produce

late Liberal administration had
belittled the danger Of deficit.
The Conservatives take the OPP

the deficit by a partial switch to

OTTAWA.-The first steps are
being taken by the new Canadian
government to reduce Canada's
economic Deepen dence on the
United States. "As an objective
only" Prime Minister John Die
fenbaker announced. I'VE plan the
diversion to the United Kingdom

Mr. Diefenbaker would not COM
ment on how this might be done.
but 1t is obvious that he is de-
pending heavily on British help.
During the recent conference OF
Commonwealth prime ministers
in London, he pressed for an early
Commonwealth meeting on trade
and economic matters. His sug-
gestion was not rebuffed. and he
hopes to convene such a confer
ence in Ottawa this fall.
However, his suggestion drew
admonitions from the British eco
nomic press that the kind of mu-
tual trading bloc which the empire
preferential tariff scheme of 1882
tried to create is now out of the
question.
It is not known how heavily
this warning bears on Mr.. Diefen-
bakers plans. Tariff manipula-
ton. import controls and import
subsidies are various means where
by the government could bring
about a curtailment Of imports
from the United States and an in
crease In imports from Britain.
All have serious disadvantages.
But the only obvious alternative.

ineffective II the British could not

FeoE Dependence
AS Mr.. Diefenbaker made clear
during the recent election cam

American economic relations is
underlain by what he considers
to be implications of Canadian
economic dependence on the
United States which are danger
Gus to Canada politically. He as
serted that history shows that

Some Problems for Ted Dalton

funds If races are mixed any
where.
There is one hurdle still facing
the Democrats-and 1t is one not
squarely faced in the Alexandria
campaign.
Decision by November!
Mr.. Thomson promised in his
campaign that Gov. Stanley's
laws would not close public
schools. His posters said keep
our schools open and keep them
segregated"
Perhaps it would aid Senator
Dalton's campaign If. before No
vember. the pending segregation
suits we're to reach the point
where q Negro student won as
signment to white school.
Then, and only then, would the
voters have an opportunity to see
if the schools could stay open in
spite Of Gov. Stanley's massive
resistance" machinery-and that
likely would be too late to affect
the election.
But Senator Dalton can call Mr..
Almonds bluff before then. The
attorney general has said local
pupil placement cannot guarantee
segregation. and pretty well has
embraced the principle Of mas
sive resistance" without actually
stating his position on the STAN
ley laws. He hasn't said, however.
what he would do If a Negro
student entered a white school
by court order or by any other
means. The Stanley laws provide
for the Governor to close schools
where races are mixed. When Mr..
Almond was asked if, as Governor,
he would take such a step, his
only reply was mo comment.
Senator Dalton is not likely to
let Mr.. Almond get by with that,
anymore than Mr.. Almond is let
ting Senator Dalton get by with
holding up local pupil placement
as an absolute guarantee against
integration.
What the voters will want to
know-and there will be lot
more Of them in November than
there were in last Tuesdays list
less primary-is how each candi-
date can answer these two ques-
tons:
/. Are you willing to accept any
Indignation at all in Virginia
schools?
2. Are you willing to close
schools to avoid mixing Of the
races?
