order and peace on this globe. Ac-
cordingly, Aristotle's philosophy
that good law means good order"
has been stretched by some to
include a new concept of world
law. Well-meaning public officials
and professional associations have
already been entranced by this
mirage. The optical illusion of
world peace through world law
has led them to suggest that the
jurisdiction of the International
Court of Justice might be broad
ened to include domestic as well
as international issues, or that a
wholly new world law organiza-
ton be superimposed upon the
sovereignty of all nations.
The fallaciousness of this notion
is exposed when one realizes that
justice and judicial processes are
rarely synonymous among nations.
On any point, an Israeli and an
Arab assuredly would have wide
ly different viewpoints. And a
settlement affecting Algeria
might have one meaning for the
Algerians and another for the
French. What international body
could fix blame for aggression? To
the Communists, this is crime
committed only by capitalist"
fascist" and 'imperialist" states.
In sum, the common ground of
agreed principle-the fulcrum of
all national legal systems-is alb
sent in international relations.
There is no international organi-
cation whose decisions would COM
mand universal respect or pos
sess the means with which to en-
force its decisions. The idea that
the Communist bloc would OBJ
serve the requirements and inhibi-
tons of an elaborate blueprint for
world law is again a mirage and
sheer quackery.

The winning marker came in

The Fire Department was un-

The threat was killed off

U. s. Accepts Full Responsibility for W. Berlin Welfare

WASHINGTON, Rt-The United States said last week the Western powers responsibility for West Berlin "has been and will remain our primary consideration" in dealing with Russia on the Ger man crisis.
 The U. s. statement was issued by the State Department shortly after the Geneva foreign minis ters' conference on Grmany re- cessed until July Is after six weeks of fruitless talks.
 The statement said the United States believes that two million West Berliners share our confi- dence that with patience and de- termination we shall find solu- tions which will safeguard their security and welfare"
 The Western powers have stead fastly held to what they say are their rights to remain in the Communist-en German city and to have free access to the city. The Soviets set off the crisis by demanding that the Allies get out.
 The U. s. declaration was issued as Secretary of State Christian Herter headed back to Washing ton for meeting with President Eisenhower.

No More Family Feuds Over Twin Beds

CHICAGO, R - An Oskosh, Wis, bed manufacturer says he has the answer to the old single bed vs. double bed controversy.
 What is needed, he says, is a revival of the bundling bed of New England Puritan days, with it's center board separating bed mates.
 History has it that early Amer ican counting couples seeking warmth slipped into the bed fully dressed in opposite sides of the center board.
 The manufacturer, showing a pilot model at the Chicago Furni- ture Show, says: ''The bundling bed may very well add up to a happy medium in the battle be- tween twin and double beds.

Louisiana Officials Uncertain Who's Chief Executive

BATON ROUGE, La, R - Louisiana officials were at logger heads at the weeks end as to who was the states chief execu- tive since Governor Earl Long indicated he may be plotting an other court battle to free himself from court-ordered treatment in mental hospital
 It. Gov. Lether Frazar. a friend of the 63-year-old ailing Cover nor. said he wants legal advice before formally taking over as acting Governor. Secretary of State Wade Martin Jr.. a political enemy of Long, said he would continue to recognize Long as Governor. He challenged F'razer's right to take over without formal certification of Longs inability to act.
 Governor Long has been ire sponsible for some time, but there has been no legal declaration of that" Martin said.
 Long called for legal counsel from his ward at the Southeast Louisiana Hospital at Vaudeville, 54 miles to the east of this capitol city where he and his brother, the late Huey P. Long, began thriving on peppery politics in the 1920's.
 State police and sheriff's depu- ties overpowered the cursing, fighting Governor Thursday night and rushed him to Vaudeville. A physician and a psychiatrist said he suffered from paranoial schizo- phrenia - deluSions of perse- cution.
