Stand on 'Rights'
"The United States, in order
to offer constructive leaders'?
in the United Nations, must take
the initiative with positive ac
tion on the drafting of a human
rights covenant, since the ob
servance of human rights is one
of the basic issues dividing the
world," Miss Katherine V. Ly-
ford, of Boston, Mass., empha
sized in a recent informal state
ment submitted to the depart
ment of state. Copies of the
statement have come to the Sa
lem Business and Professional
Women's club.
Miss Lyford, who is national
chairman of international rela
tions for the National Federation
of Business and Professional
Women's Clubs, Inc., stated
that the opinions she forwarded
were based on information re
ceived from both national and
local leaders of the organization
she represents. Her statement
will be considered, as will state
ments from other organizations
and leaders, when the state de
partmcnt frames its report of the
United States' position for the
next session of the commission
on human rights, which will
be held at Lake Success late in
March.
Miss Lyford's complete infor
mal statement contained eight
points with reference to the
draft covenant. Among the
eight was a stipulation that:
"The first covenant on human
rights should contain articles on
only civic and political rights.
Social and economic rights
should be considered at a later
date."
Point 8 of the statement read
All statements of our delega
tion should be based on the
recognition of the need for ex
tending to women, all rights
considered subject for inclusion
in the covenant."

Employees' Benefit Plan over
2. When an employee retires, a solid pension will add
to his own savings of course, no security plan eliminates
the need to save. But, for example, if he started at 22 and
retires when he's 62, following ten years with an average
wage of $80 a week, he'll get a pension of $139 a month.
Buying these benefits on his own would have meant put
ting aside large additional sums for insurance or savings.
