SPIRING might not even be too
strong a word.
AFTER all, what happens In the
future will depend on whether
we and the British and the Rus
sians, who have the POWER, are
able to co-operate reasonably, to!
erantly and intelligently in run
ning the world.
History tells us thut.such a task
is beset with many pitfalls, but
San Francisco leads us to hope
that a new spirit of tolerance
may be abroad in the world.
FIELD MARSHAL MONTGOMERY-,
best known of Britain's
military commanders, upon
whom we have bestowed the af
fectionate nickname of Monty,
does a fine thing at Wiesbaden, in
Germany. After conferring Brit
ish decorations on 100 or more
Americans, he says frankly:
"We (the British) were FIN
ISHED in 1941. I admit it. Then
you (Americans) came along and
gave us a helping hand. That was
the only thing that saved us. It
is a trememdous debt that we
can never repay. Not ever."
THOSE are geenrous words
all the more generous be
tause they are literally true. Let
Is accept them in the generous
spirit in which they were uttered.
Let us refrain from talk of who
won the war.
We ALL won It. We'd have had
the devil's own time helping the
British if they hadn't been stub
bornly willing to go the limit In
helping themselves.
COLORFUL Monty has set us a
good example. Let's follow it.
Fortunately our own General
Eisenhower ' has been generous
and tactful and sincere in his
dealings with the British. In this
grave hour, when an old world is
passing out and a new world is
coming into being, we seem to
be lucky in our loaders.
PRESIDENT TRUMAN did a
nice little thing In San Fran
cisco. Greeted noisily and happily
by a quarter of a million people
there, he said humbly: "It was
for the OFFICE, not for the
man." Someway, one can't help
feeling that he MEANT it.
THERE comes from Moscow an
odd and on its face a little
stagy touch of this spirit of hum
bleness in the face of grave re
sponsibilities looming in the
future.
Stalin, at a victory banquet, is
said to have raised his glass and
proposed a toast to the LITTLE
PEOPLE of Russia. He is re
ported to have said:
"I should like to drink to the
health of . . the people who are
considered: to be the cogs in the
wheels . . . but without whom all
of us marshals and army com
manders are, to put it cruedly.
not worth a tinker's dam . . .
They are the people who support
us as the base supports the sum
mit ... I drink to the health of
these people, our respected com
rades." THERE !s another equally odd
note of hope and tolerance and
willingness to adapt to new condi
tions in facing a future that Is
full of unknowns. It comes from
the hard-boiled, put-your -money-on-the-line
New York stock
market, which is edging Into new
8-year highs.
There is no sentiment in the
stock market, where only COLD
CASH talks. But this edging Into
new highs in the face of all the
problems of reconversion from
war to peace, with the door open
ing Into a new world In which the
THE WORLD CHARTER
By Charles V. Stanton
Fifty nations Tuesday night placed their signatures upon
a World Charter, designed to
is possible we have experienced the signing of one of the
most important documents of
surpass in its effect upon the world of the future, the Magna
Carta, the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution
of the United States and other such agreements which
have contributed to freedom and human welfare.
We are glad that it has been identified as an "imperfect"
document. The fact that its framers recognize imperfec
tions is, we believe, the most auspicious factor contributing
to the hopes for successful
contains.
As we contemplate the historic event concluded Tuesday
night in San Francisco, there come to mind two quotations
we believe to be particularly relevant.
George Washington said:
It I a maxim, founded on tho universal experience of
mankind, that no nation Is to be trusted further than it is
bound by its interests, and no prudent statesman or poli
tician will venture to depart from it.
And Patrick Henry told the Virginia convention :
I have but one lamp by which my feet are guided, and
that Is the lamp of experience. I know of no way of judging
of the future but by the past.
To this we would add another quotation the expression
of President Truman as he
session:
wo an nave 10 recognize no matter now great our
strength that we must deny ouselve the llcenie to do
always at we please. No one nation, no regional group, can
or should expect any special privilege whioh harms any
other nation. If any nation would keep security for itself,
It must be ready and willing to share aeourity with all.
That la the price which each nation will have to pay for
world peace. And what a reasonable prloe It Is.
When the United Nations conference was convened a
few weeks ago there was a feeling of suspicion and distrust
among the nations represented. The statement of the
Father of our Country that "no- nation is to- be trusted
further than it is bound by its interest," could well have been
adopted as a theme. It has been exemplified in the reserva
tions, the cautions, and the
charter.
Yet it was under exactly
13 colonies ratified the Coi stitution of the United States.
The Bill of Rights was added to the Constitution to allay
distrust.
It is quite probable that the World Charter, too, will
require its Bill of Rights. That fact is recognized by the
framers in their acknowledgement of imperfections.
But the "lamp of experience" will light the way to amend
ments if all nations are willing to pay the price for world
peace.
One of the main thomes expressed by signatory powers
was that the ""Charter provides for a good piece of ma
chinery but whether it preserves international peace and
security depends upon how people use it."
The Charter is not perfect. It can never be perfect until
all mankind subscribes to another great declaration, "The
Sermon on the Mount," but it is a step upward along the
road to that high place in civilization toward which man
kind has been striving throughout the centuries a place
in which nations can live at peace and with friendship to
ward one another.
old rules may not work, a rising
rather than a sinking stock
market Is reassuring.
Whatever you do, don't get
sentimental about the stock
market. Its rising tendency is
influenced by the probability cf
increasing inflation. But at least
its steady rise in the face of the
problems of peace Is a sign of
hope rather than of despair.
LET'S not fool ourselves. The
world is full of hate and fear
and envy and greed. The millen
nium Isn't here. But there ARE
signs of tolerance and decency
and hope which are the ESSEN
TIALS in the building of a new
and better world on the wreckage
of the old one.

Rent control Is equipped with

For example, a tenant who Is
overcharged has authority to

recover, damages. The law pro
vides damages up to three times
the amount of the overcharge, or
$50, whichever is greater. Fur
thermore, tha OPA administrator

overcharge, the tenant has not
done so. In such a case, the dam

Charging more than the au
