United Nations' association, of Orefoa. is attending the anniversary t'N meeting in San Francisco and wrote the following account of the opening session. San Francisco San Francisco, always a, colorful city, is sur passing itself on this tenth anniversary meeting of the United Nations. Upon arrival at the airport, I found people from foreign countries, many in their native costumes, much in evidence. Plainly, mankind varies in appearance as much as does any other species. Pressure for tickets to the meetings is terrific. While I was in the United Nations office try ing to get one, J. Henry Kaiser called. He too was refused. No tickets were to be had. People had begun waiting in line at 4 a.m. I obtained a ticket in an un usual way. As I had given up hope of getting one, I wandered toward the Opera House on the strength of a rumor that there was an exceptionally good TV available in the Veterans build ing. When I arrived, the police had already roped off the op posite'side of the street, but there was still a walk open .to the Vet erans building. People in holiday mood lined the walk. Flags of many nations were flying. A few deadly ser ious individuals carrying pla cards urging the downfall of their particular dictator formed a sharp contrast to the gala atmosphere. This pretty miss is ready for spring in a man-tailored, but femi nine, shirt dress. It is a fresh new cotton in tone-on-tone print. Helen Whiting designs this youthful cot ton with short sleeves and a man darin collar. The shirt front buttons down to the waistline and meets with a flurry of impressed pleats. On entering the Veterans buil ding, I hoped to glimpse a pass ing plenipotentiary. Instead I saw a sign "Admissions No More Tickets." However, there was a crowd there, and tickets were being handed out. Fortun ately the tickets held out until I obtained one. On the way to the opera house I walked with a delegate who knew right where to go. The re sult was that I arrived in time to hear the President speak. Truly it was the most impres sive scene I have ever witnessed. Flags of all member nations were in a semicircle around the stage and in front of them sat the diplomats. It was like a color print from a history book. The President spoke slowly and deliberately. "We, with the rest of the world, know that a nation's vision of peace cannot be obtained through any race in armaments. The munitions of peace are justice, honesty, mu tual understanding, and respect for others. "So believing and so motivat ed, the United States "will leave no stone unturned to work for peace. We shall reject no meth od, however novel, that holds out any hope, however faint, for a just and lasting peace." His words rang through th e crowded opera house with great sincerity. Applause was spon taneous. He continued, quoting from Abraham Lincoln, "The dogmas of the quiet past are inadequate to the stormy present. The oc casion is piled high with diffi culty, and we must rise to the occasion. As our case is new, so we must think anew, and act anew. We, must disenthrall our selves, and then we shall save, our country." The President was this day a great leader of a great people in a great course. Mr. Molotov will speak Wednesday. Champaign, 111. (U.R) A nu trition specialist puts in a plug for fatty, salt-water fish such as tuna, salmon and mackerel. Mrs. Barbara McGrath of the Univer sity of Illinois said this type of fish is the only rich food source of vitamin D. It also is an ex cellent source of vitamin A and other vitamins and minerals.
