Professor Declares Americans Oversold by U.N. Propaganda That the American people had been oversold in the early propa ganda about the expectations of the United Nations organization was the statement made by Charles Schleicher, professor of political science department, in a talk to Christian and Methodist church members, at a joint meeting Wed nesday evening. In explaining what the U. N. is and the work that it has accom plished so far, Professor Schleich er reminded the group that the U. N. was only two years old. In most past experiments made in government organizations not much more hope of success was shown within a two-year period than is presently shown in the United Nations organization, he said. "Not until an efficient interna tional government is set up can we hope for true peace and under standing between nations,” Schleicher remarked, “and such a program will take many more years to«foe accomplished.” He ex plained that the U. N. as now or ganized, is not an international government and does not try to change the state systems of the different courttries. The speaker also pointed out that the organization does not have an international police force in its charter, but that each nation has agreed to place at the disposal of the council their forces when need ed. Mrs. Paul Means, instructor in English, was in charge of the ar rangements for ^he program which followed a dinner at the church. Dr. Victor P. Morris, dean of the busi ness administration school, will discuss the work of the U. N. in a November meeting at the Metho dist church.
