First W Years oil U.N. Show
Oniiportance in keeping IPeace
By HENRY CABOT LODGE JR.
U.S. Ambasiador to the U.N.
Written for United Prew
Ten years ago, the United Na
tions charter came into being.
In spite of many obstacles, the
United Nations hag played a de
cisive part in:
Extinguishing the threatened
Communist aggression in Iran
and causing the withdrawal of
Soviet troops there.
Ending the Communist war
against Greece.
Preventing open warfare over
Kashmir between India and
Pakistan.
Bringing about the advent of
Israel into the family of nations
and ending the war in the Holy
Land.
Emergence of Indonesia as an
independent nation.
The successful fight of 16 free
nations, with overwhelming par
ticipation by the United States
and the republic of Korea, to
repel the bloody Communist ag
gression in Korea.
These are all situations which
could have led to wars. The Ko
rean aggression in particular
might have led to world war
or uncontrolled Communist ex
pansion. Pressure Growth
The United Nations has grown
in accordance with the pressures
of world politics and of circum
stances and experience. These
have already caused the signifi
cance of certain features of the
charter to shrink and have also
caused others to take on a
growth which was not contem
plated at San Francisco in 1945.
Let me give four illustrations:
First, the original scheme pre
scribed by the charter called for
the Security Council, if the need
arose, to be able to issue enforce
ment action orders, providing
there was no veto. This has never
been done. For one thing, the
arrangements which would have
put this provision into effect
calling for the earmarking of
armed forces have never been
made. The council has thus
never taken up, to the full, the
powers originally set forth for
it in the charter.
Secondly, the United Nations
has grown into the most power
ful single engine in the world
for influencing world opinion.
This was made possible by the
provisions of the charter which
enabled the General Assembly
and, to an important degree, the
Security Council to make the
United Nations into the only
truly world forum. This appears
to have happened to a greater
degree than was contemplated
by the founders.
U.N. Center of Information
In the third place, the United
Nations is a center of informa
tion where, nations can learn
more about each other. It is the
only single place in the world
where we can so easily and so
quickly get so much informa
tion about other nations. Con
versely, the leaders of other na
tions can learn at the United
Nations what America is really
like.
In a fourth and final respect,
the United Nations has develop
ed just about as the founders
thought, and that is in its capa
city as a "center for harmoniz
ing." In this field, the United
Nations has been quite indispen
sable. One example of this was
the meeting in a United Nations
lounge between a United States
and a Soviet representative
which brought about the ending
of the Berlin blockade and
enabled us to cease the Berlin
airlift.
As President Eisenhower has
said, the United Nations has not
found a cure for war any more
than our hospitals have found
a cure for cancer, but the United
Nations, in its stress on public
opinion rather than legalistic
formalities, is on the right track.
Only from the focusing of world
TURNCOAT" YANKS QUIT REDS Communist China
announced that three American war prisoners who chose
Communism when the Korean war ended had changed
their minds and would be freed with two Belgian Army de
serters. The Americans were identified as CpT W. A. Coart
(left) of Monticello, Ark., CpL 0. G. Bell (right) of Olympia,
Wash., and CpL Leweie Griggs of Jacksonville, Tex. The
Americans were dishonorably discharged from the Army.
Luther Leaguers
Open Convention
San Francisco U.R) Some
7,000 delegates to the 16th bien
nial convention of the Interna
tional Young . People's Luther
League today crowded into San
Francisco, scene of the 10th an
niversary observance of the
United Nations.
The convention will officially
open tomorrow, but at a cere
mony tonight Rev. Charroll L.
Hinderlie of Minneapolis ' and
Rev. L. Davis Brown of New
Ulm, Minn., will be installed as
the group's new director and as
sociate director, respectively.
Choral Union Convenes
The league, which is the youth
group of the Evangelical Luth
eran Church, will end its conven
tion Sunday, June 26. Also con
vening with the league is the
choral union of the 960,000 mem
ber church.
Yesterday the group received
a message of greetings from
President Eisenhower, who ar
rived here last night to address
the United Nations' opening ses
sions today.
"It is essential today," the
President's message said, "that
young people take up the task
of trying to build bridges of
understanding among the
world's peoples.
"I hope that all of you young
people who share an idealistic
devotion to a faith will commit
yourself to share in this work."
BAD GUESS
Grand Rapids. Mich. (u.R)
The next time East Grand Rap
ids buys a fire engine, officials
are certain to use a tape meas
ure. A new pumper, purchased
recently proved to be wider
than the station house doors. It
cost a tidy sum to rip out a
brick wall and make a new en
trance for the pumper.
Bergen is
largest city.
Norway's second
opinion can a common sense
of justice gradually emerge
and only on a worldwide sense
of justice will it be possible to
build a truly enduring peace.

with TCP is the only
