'Open Covenants Openly Arrived At
May Be Realized At UNO Formation
By Louis F. Keemla
(United Press Staff Correspondent)
A significant move has been made In London to let the people
of all countries in on the secrets of their own world organization.
The plan provides for the fullest possible publicity on meet
ings of the United Nations, now In the process of formation. It
will be presented this week to the preparatory commission of the
UNO with the strong endorsement of the United States.
WOODROW WILSON'S PROPOSAL LONG DELAYED
Woodrow Wilson's proposal for "open covenants, openly ar
rived at" may come closer to realization under this plan than has
been possible during the tricky, double-dealing course of interna
tional politics which marked the breathing space between the two
world wars. , ...
The plan has been drafted by a technical advisory committee
on lnformotlon. Its primory backer is Wilder Foote, special as
sistant to Edward R. Stettinius, chief United States delegate to the
UNO Preparatory commission.
The project is designed to give the press, radio and other
agencies of Information fuller access to the proceedings of the
UNO, so that the public may have a better Idea of what Is going on.
Like any such far-thinking proposal, the plan is by no means
perfect, but It is an encouraging beginning. It is capable of ex
pansion after the UNO has begun to function. When and if the
UNO is broadened Into a world parliament, as some idealists hope
It will be, the suggested policy could become a Magna Carta of
freedom in Information.
STRENGTH OF PLAN LIES IN COOPERATION NEED
The strength of the drafted plan lies In its opening declaration
that the UNO cannot achieve its purposes unless the peoples of the
world are fully Informed about its aims and activities. The weak
ness is that no specific provision is made against closed meetings
of UNO bodies under any and all circumstances.
A London dispatch reports that the plan seeks to follow for
the United Nations Organization the same policy adopted during
the present preparatory meeting, by which all committee sessions,
Including those of the steering committee, were open to the press.
The dispatch, however, made the following observation:
"The nations now meeting here already have approved In
their rules of procedure for various UNO organs the policy that
all meetings be open except In extraordinary circumstances, and
with the exception of the security council, whose meetings will be
open unless otherwise decided."
TRUE FREEDOM OF REPORTING NOT POSSIBLE NOW
Unless that policy Is tightened, true freedom of reporting will
not bo possible, especially in matters of the gravest importance.
The technical advisory committee fortunately set no such limita
tions. It suggested a world-wide advisory committee which would
meet periodically at the UNO seat and suggest Improvements on
the Information policy.
Meantlmo, It Is proposed to set up a public Information bureau
under UNO auspices. The bureau would give the press and other
information agencies "the fullest possible access" to UNO activi
ties and documents, with a view to world-wide distribution.
A check would be made of public opinion to determine
whether the people were being fully and impartially informed.
Provision was made to ensure that the material distributed should
be entirely Information and not propaganda.

What are the most difficult
items of food to handle grace
fully when .dining? On this a
New Yorker seeks my opinion.
Offhand I would say corn on
the cob and spaghetti. Corn on
the cob presents such an obstacle
to graceful eating that many peo
ple pass It up. Especially wom
en. Emily Post said the way to
handle corn on the cob was 'to
attack it with as little ferocity
as possible." To hnndlo spaghetti
gracefully takes a touch of gen
ius. W. A. Brady, the theatrical
producer, is the most graceful
spaghetti eater I know of. He
says he took lessons from
Caruso.
Perfect Husband
"I consider my husband so
perfect he Is practically a fugi
tive from heaven. He selects all
my clothes from hats to shoes."
So states a young matron of Chi
cago. That Is about the 50th let
ter I have received from Chi
cago In which a wife after tell
ing how wonderful her husband
Is says he also buys her hats.
Those Chicago husbands seem to
have their wives well trained.
Guess I will have our Horses &
Women experts do some special
research in Chicago with a view
toward getting some good mater
ial for our files on wife train
ing. By the way, if any other
Chicago wife Informs this de
partment her husband buys her
hats will she plcose enclose a
snapshot of herself wearing one
of the hats. My girl friend wants
to seo it.
Dog Insurance
As to being Insured against
damages If your dog bites some
body it can be done with a com
prehensive liability policy. This
policy not only protects you
from damages if your dog bites
somebody but also If your wife
bites somebody. Or if you slice
your drive and hit somebody In
the head with a golf ball. Also
protects you from suit in many
other minor mishaps. You can
Insure your dog's life, too. But
only if he is registered.
Asking
Queries from clients. Q. My
husband says his old home town
St. Paul, Minn., holds the record
for below lero weather among
cities. How about It? A. Bis
marck, N. D., where the temper
ature once registered 45 degrees
below zero holds that recoid.
However, It has been 41 below
zero In St. Paul. Q. When was
the song a "Little Spanish Town"
popular? A. Nearly 20 years ago.
Around 1928. Q. I have been tell
ing a fellow named Macl'artlnnd
the Irish invented the bagpipes.
He won't believe me. You tell
him. A. The bagpipe was Invent
ed by the Greeks.
Reincarnation
A Philadelphlan wants to
know why I never discus rein
carnation. I have a good reason
for not doing so. I don't know
anything about it. Now don't
be a cad and say I discuss a
lot of things I don't know any
thing about. However, I have
heard people believing in rein
carnation take the view that
when reincarnated they will
have the same fingerprints as
now. So they have their finger
prints registered with a view to
ward checking the same when,
after death, they return to life
again. I have also noted an ex
pert on reincarnation states that
once a human always a human."
That a human never returns to
life as "an animal, Insect or
vegetable." Very rea s s u r 1 n g.
Think how unpleasant It would
be to return to earth as a cock
roach or a tomato.
Sidelights
There seems to be consider
able contradiction to the claim
that Is dangerous for a woman
of over 40 to have a child. A
Chlcagoan writes that she gave
birth to a daughter when 42
years old. And to another daugh
ter when 45',4 years old, . . .
Son Francisco was the first city
to have a law against women
keeping on their large hats at
theatrical performances. It was
originally referred to as "The
High Hat Ordinance."
Briefly
When a man is bald it Is very
likely when his daughter mar
ries and has a son, the son on
reaching adult years will be
bald. Or so state those who claim
baldness is hereditary. . , Charles
"Scotty" Butterworth, a Juve
nile probation officer of San
Francisco, has sold over $18,
000,000 of war and victory bonds
and is still going strong. "Is
there a man in Brooklyn who
can top that record?" Asks the
Colifornlan furnishing the infor
mation. Songs
Is announced that In a forth
coming film Constance Moore
will sing "The Man Who Broke
the Bank at Monte Carlo." That's
a nion's song. The real title Is
"I'm the Man Who Broke the
Bank at Monte Carlo." It was
Introduced by "Old Hoss" Hocy
In "The Parlor Match." I am
against women singing songs in
tended for men. Afso agnlnst
man singing ditties written for
femole singers. Every now and
then you hear a male crooner
cutting loose with a love song
designed to be rendered by a
female.

SOUND EFFECTS
Chicago (U.R) A sound ef
fects man used to be proud of
his fakes now he's proud of his
aches.
It's all due to the sensitivity
of Frequency Modulation broad-1
casting, according to William
McGuineas, commercial manag
er of WGN and WGNB.
In "the good ol' days," the
back-ground effects were spec
ialties that tried the imagination
of the technicians, and they
crackled cellophane to produce
the sound of fire, whirled peb
bles in a drum to fake a rain
storm, or slugged a cabbage
with a mallet to represent a
blackjack on the head.
But the accuracy of FM repro
duction makes the fakes sound
like poor reproductions. So that
won't work any more.
Now, to broadcast the sound
of a fist on a jaw, someone has
to catch a punch right on the
jaw!
At a recent FM broadcast, the
sound effects man arrived for a
show with a wagon loaded with
paraphernalia. There was a sink
with running water and plenty
of dishes; there was a vacuum
cleaner and a broom. He had
an assortment of garden tools
and a small set of stairs, and
purposely fell down the stairs
to obtain a true sound picture.
For another broadcast, a small
stove complete with coffee pot,
frying pan and cutlery was
assembled and he really fried
an egg close up to the mike'
McGuineas said his sound ef
fects man got his only case of
mike fright recently when a
human heart beat was being
broadcast. The technician look
ed pale after the broadcast, and
McGuineas asked him what was
wrong.
"I just realized," the techni
cian said, "that ' my stomach
might have rumbled when I had
that mike next to my heart
and brother, over FM it would
have sounded ilke thunder!"
$400 IN QUARTERS
Louisville. Ky. (U.R) When
