Sen. George Declares UN Charter Revision Unwise at This Time Washington (U.R) Chair man Walter F. George of the Senate Foreign Relations com mittee said Saturday it would be "unwise" for the U. S. to press for ' an immediate United Na tions charter review conference. The Georgia Democrat said he thought it would be "very dif ficult to get a charter review conference under present condi tions that would be productive." George told newsmen that perhaps "by next year" condi tions will have stabilized enough for a conference "with some hope of strengthening the charter.'' Hearings On Proposal A foreign relations subcom mittee also headed by George has been holding hearings on proposals for revising the charter. Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt Fri day agreed generally with testi mony earlier in the week by former President Harry S. Tru man and Herbert Hoover that any helpful charter revisions would be difficult under present p conditions. " Mrs. Roosevelt and Mr. Tru man both warned that a full dress charter review conference now might do more harm than good. Under the U. N. charter, the question of calling a charter re vision conference is automatical ly on the agenda of the U. N. General Assembly for this fall because 10 years have elapsed since the charter was approved. Member states will decide whether they want such a meet ing. , No Prediction Made George would not predict what the subcommittee will rec ommend when it winds up hear ings and prepares a report later this year. But he said he sees little chance of a charter revision Foreign Nations to Get Salk Vaccine Formula Washington (U.R) The State department expects in the next few days to begin sending to about 75 nations the formula of the Salk polio vaccine and the University of Michigan evalua tion report. Russia and other Communist nations will be among those re ceiving the information. The move is being taken on instructions from President Eis- enhower as a gesture of good will. Officials said transmission of the polio vaccine information is primarily "symbolic" because the Salk formula has been known to medical authorities abroad for some months.

(International) TRIBUNE WAHT FOR RESULTS Phone 2-6141 session being called this year. Mrs. Roosevelt urged a "com mittee for study" of charter re vision within the U. N. with a view toward a possible charter revision conference in the fu ture. John J. Barnhardt, represent ing the American Legion, called for a three-point revision of the U.

Morse Raps Stand on Formosa Resolution Washington (U.R) Sen. Wayne Morse (D-Ore.) said Fri day night that when Congress approved President Eisenhow er's "defend Formosa" resolu tion in January it "turned its back on a glorious tradition of non-aggression." Morse told Georgetown Uni versity law students the resolu tion "simply means the power to declare war was transferred to the President." He called Mr. Eisenhower's judgement in the Formosa crisis "very, very poor." U.S. Must Stand Ground, Deputy Secretary Says Boca Raton, Fla: (U.R) Dep uty Secretary of Defense Robert B. Anderson said Saturday that the United States must do more than stand its ground in the arms race in order to defeat Communism. The most that can be done in the arms race, Anderson said, is to neutralize Russia's use of military force as an instrument of its "aggressive policy." But beyond that, he said, other factors - in the power balance- "economic, diplomatic, psycho logical and moral" become even more important. Anderson spoke before a meeting of the Americans Asso ciation of Advertising agencies. A femal- house fly can lay from 600 to 1,000 eggs during her lifetime.
