How did Stengel do it? Did he win by clever

Or did the great stars who played for him, the
DiMaggios, Mantles and the rest, make it easy to
win pennants? Was it genius was it luck?

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y
The heavy influx into UN OF
newly independent nations from
the dark continent, sometimes
suspected of being far from
ready for breasting the tough
world on their own, threatens
the western powers with loss OF
majority control in the global
organization.
Can these western powers,
who hold the fate of our world
in their hands, risk any sur
render to the will of a UN ma
jority constituted by Asian and
African states, some hardly out
of their political infancy, others
still in their 'teens?" Many
statesmen are dubious, particu-
larly because they feel that the
Soviet Union will exploit this
dangerous situation as part of
the Communist startegy to un-
dermine the effectiveness of
UNI.

Perhaps, looking back at Grit
fifth Stadium and the very
mortal men who comported
themselves there, it's good that
we all can't do all the things we
want to do.
1t may be a somewhat jaded
outlook, but thank goodness
some of us have the inaccessi-
bility of a European trip, the
inability to emulate some ideal
of ours, the lack of talent to do
the things we're sure we could
do If only we took the time.
It's a little sad to realize that
so many of us have been able to
g ain experiences vicariously
tina actual accomplishment
often turns to ashes.
Maybe we need to readjust
our sights; the world where we
can stare in open-mouthed ap.
probation at some feat of
mental or physical ability is
such a delightful one.
We simply couldn't stand to
have too many of the bubbles

SBAOffers Moving Loans
To Area Small Businesses

newal Administration will con-
tinue to compensate businesses
dislocated by Federally-aided ur-
ban renewal operations for
moving and; under certain cir
cumstances, direct losses of
property.
Loan applicants must have a
successful record of business
experience and be able to dem
onstrate a reasonable prospect
that the loan can be repaid from
earnings of the business as re-
established.
No specific collateral require
ments have been established for
loans under the new program
but applicants will be expected
to pledge whatever collateral
they can furnish.
Applicants for these loans
should apply to the nearest
SBA Field Office. If a bank is
willing to participate in the
loan, the applicant should apply
to the bank and request it to
communicate with the nearest
SBA Field Office.

Western Powers May Lose
Control. In Clobal Group

standing such as Assembly Pres
ident Frederick H. Boland of
Ireland to put into perspective
this troublesome issue, includ-
ing the effect the rising Afro
Asian majority in UN has on
Soviet policy and position in the
Assembly. He told this column:
up to two or three years
ago, what with their votes and
those of their friends and allies
in Latin America, Nato, Seato,
Cento and the Commonwealth,
the western powers could al
ways court on obtaining the
necessary majority in UN. That
is no longer the case. The
change is due to the fact that
the Afro-Asian group accounts
now for 46 of the SO assembly
votes.
Let me say at once that it is
a grave mistake to talk or think
of the Afro-Asian states as be-
ing unitedly, or even predomin-
antly, anti-western. On the con-
trary, some are partners in Sea-

we weren't nearly so awe
stricken as we had come to be-
lieye the case would be.
1t seems to be one of the
curses of growing up in the
days that now surround us.
Some 25 years ago, one of
the biggest things that ever
happened in our hometown was
when a couple of the boys got
to make the trek to a neighbor-
ing city to see major league
exhibition game.
Upon their return, the heroes
of the day - whose names we
can't recall; another curse -
had grown in stature until they
were ready-made for seven
league boots, if they didn't
actually wear them.
But the heroes of last week
were simply people, playing a
game as best they knew how.
The aura of enchantment, the
feeling that here's somebody
larger than life-size, were no
where to be found.
So it goes throughout our
days. To an elementary stu
dent in school, the greatest con-
summation devoutly to be wish
ed is to be a high school senior.
After attaining that lofty
position, however, the senior
finds that the ultimate is to be
college student, who looks
with longing at the position of
the young businessman, who
feels there could be nothing
more satisfying than the world
of a family man, who looks
ahead to the time when he can
be a powerful executive, who
wonder what all the fuss was
about, anyhow.

Small businesses adversely
affected and forced to relocate
their operations because of Fed
erally-aided construction pro-
grams are now eligible for low
interest long-term loans from
the Small Business Administra-
ton under a new program an
nounced this week.
Under the program, SBA will
make loans-either directly or
in participation with banks-for
terms up to 20 years to help re-
establish small firms who must
move because of Federally-as-
sisted urban renewal, highway
or other construction programs.
Loans approved through June
80, 1862, will carry an interest
rate of 3as percent a year. The
interest rate will be established
annually by law.
Authority for the new pro-
gram is contained in provisions
of the Housing Act of 1861,
passed by the Congress on June
%, and signed into law by Pres
ident Kennedy on June 80. This
legislation also added SIS mil
lion to SBA's Loan Revolving
Fund to finance the new lend
ing function.
The new SBA program does
not affect the previous author

to or Cento; others have close
economic, defense or other ties
with western countries; still
others, although in principle
neutralist and uncommitted,
tend on the whole to vote more
often with the west than with
Communist bloc on major issues
of east-west relations.
when, however, it comes to
issues of direct concern to the
Afro-Asian group itself-involv.
ing for example the question of
colonialism or racial discrimin-
alton or economic underdevelop-
ment-the groups tend to close
ranks and vote as a bloc. Any
western country which votes
against it is apt to incur the dis.
favor if not the active resent
ment of even the well-disposed
and western-minded members
of the group.
Thus the Afro-Asian group
has up to now voted solidly
against France on the question
of Algeria. They voted solidly
against the Union of South Afri-
ca on the questions of apartheid
and Southwest Africa; at the re-
cent session, they voted solidly
in criticism of Portuguese poll
cy in Angola.
mo doubt, it is very vexatious
and even huniliating for great
countries like France and Por.
tugal and the Union of South
Africa to have their policies dis
cussed, criticized and even con.
demned in the UN by the
spokesman of small countries.
1t is something entirely new to
international life, to interna-
tional diplomacy and in world
relations. But it is one of the
unacceptable consequences of
what l may call perhaps the
new characterization of world
society.
Personally, I have faith in the
wisdom and good judgment of
the smaller UN members not to
push the opportunities which
the assembly affords them to
unwise extremes. But the dan
ger involved is by no means a
hypothetical one. France has
already become extremely dis
satisfied with'UN as De Gaulle
has repeatedly made clear. The
increase in UN membership, the
growing characterization of the
world community, and loss to
the West of its previous auto
matte majorities no doubt is
creating many new problems
for the Administration.
