Aumswlle Bennett Tells Realty Board Of UiXESCO The United Nations organization is weak but will continue to grow if helped along and supported. Kiank B. Bennett, recent delegate to the UNF-SCO conference in San Francisco, Calif., said here Friday. Bennett, superintendent of Sa lem city schools, told the Salem Board of Realtors at their noon luncheon meeting that the United Nations organization is nebulous and indefinite. The speaker drew hope, how ever, from the fact that the Unit ed States required some 60 years of operation to acquire a working system. Bennett said the stronger nations in the group should pro I tect the germ of the idea until it hatches into reality. Americans have a Job to do in understanding other nations, he said. One of the UNESCO speak ers, said Bennett, declared thai this country was Russia's greatest propagandist because we credit Russia with every untoward act. This gives people the idea that the Soviet is stronger than she real ly is, he added.

A partial text of the president's response follows: "I've never had a nicer or more appreciative introduction. I've known the governor for a long time. He's my kind of democrat.
