.... Why The U.N.?
World War III hasn't happened yet. Maybe it
never will.
If it does, the consequences would be unimagin
able. Since the end of World War U, there have been
scores of incidents, and enough pressures and tensions
and international squabbles, to have created half-a-
dozen wars under different circumstances.
And what are the circumstances which have, so
far, made it possible to avoid another World War?
We don't know the whole answer. But we do know
that the United Nations had a lot to do with it.
THE United Nations was organized 10 years ago
Monday.
It has made some big headlines- during that dec
ade. And some others that weren't so big. In a way,
perhaps some of the smaller headlines had more real
significance than the big ones. The building up of
trouble is, properly, big news. Lack of trouble is no
news at all on a day-to-day basis. But its significance
can be greater. :
What if there had been no UN?
- Would .there have been fighting in Syria and
Lebanon in 1946? Would the Russian troops have
withdrawn from Iran in 1946? Would trouble have
grown and spread in the Balkans in those uneasy
days?' .
Would bloodshed have grown in Indonesia as
tho vnnrur nation cut itself off from The Netherlands?
Would the uneasy peace
neighbors have been simply uneasy peace or Diooay
warfare? Would India and Pakistan gone to war
over Kashmir?
AND without the United Nations, what would have
happened to South Korea? Would American
troops still be fighting, there?
These are only examples of situations wnere tne
TIN has taken a hand. What would have happened
had there been no UN, no
But the fact is that there has been no general war.
And there is reason to hoDe and believe that the
world mav be cettinff in
troubles, rather than fighting them out.
WHAT is the cost to us, as American taxpayers,
vf ci-mnnrrincr this intern atf nnal firoanization?
vi wr r w o w wv-
On the basis of current
cost comes to approximately 54 cents per person per
year;
The cost of fighting World II came to about $1.59
per person per DAY.
IT TOOK years for the American systern of gov
evrnment to evolve. It is still changing. It is logical
to believe that the UN, as a forum where the nations
of the world can meet and
evolving into something better. . ; ' .:. ..
Tf the alternative is a return to unilateral diplo-
rnacv. without a world forum to keep it in the open,
we say there is no choice but 'to support the: United
Nations with everything we have. E. A. .
Revive The CCO
During a recent trip into the forests of southern
Oreirnn. a member of the partv remarked what a
wonderful experience it was, in the mixed-up 1930s,
for eastern boys to get a chance to become acquainted
with the woods and the mountains through the CCC
nropram.
He suggested that.it would be a wonderful thing
if some organization such as tne uivinan conservation
Corps were to be revived. Not only would it afford
slum-raised youngsters a chance at the outdoors, but
it also would furnish the manpower for the vitally
needed conservation, access road and trail building
work in the western woods.
A FEW days later, another Medford man,-Milton J.
Argast, wrote along similar lines to the Oregon
Journal, which published his letter. He said, in part:
With all the talk about juvenile delinquency, I wonder
if anyone in Washington, D.C., ever thinks about one of
the best agencies formed during the regime of Frankin D.
Roosevelt. I refer to the civilian conservation corps, organ
ized in the early 1930s. The work carried out by the young
men who formed the corps was extremely beneficial, both
to the men and to the country.
As a sergeant in World War n, I had several former
CCC men under my supervision. They had learned discip
. line, and they were assets to their country, both in civilian
life, and as soldiers. I am no prophet, but I venture the as
sertion that if the CCC were revived, there would be much
less juvenile delinquency.
SUCH a proposal raises several questions.
Would membership be voluntary? If so, how
many would join it during times of full" employment
such at present?
If it were not voluntary, on what basis would
men be assigned to the organization? By the courts,
in lieu of prison terms or fines? And if so, would it
not partake of an unsavory penal nature?
Or would men be given a choice between the CCC
and the armed forces? And if so, could either or both
be maintained in adequate strength?
THE Nazis had, and the Russians still have, com
pulsory labor groups. By their very nature they are
abhorent in a country where even compulsory mili
tary service is still looked upon as a measure to be
taken only during an. emergency period.
We grant that some type of organization modeled
along CCC lines could well be beneficial both to young
men and to the development of western resources.
But under existing circumstances, we don't see how
it could be fitted into the pattern of democratic
life. E. A. .

Babson A New Profession
By ROGER W. BABSON
Babson Park, Mass. (Special
to Mail Tribune) Yes, it is the
old misnamed "public relations"
job which is fast being built up
into a new and distinctive "hu
man relations" profession.
Furthermore, it is open to both
men and women yes,- even to
"shut-ins." I forecast it is head
ed for a brilliant future.
Many lawyers are being used
as "public relations" men; but it
is not a work for lawyers. You
yourself know
that a law

dictive of

woman can

Voter W. Bsbtos.
indirectly, threaten. I may be
wrong, but in my opinion, to be
most successful a human rela
tions expert should not be a
lawyer and should never have
taken a case , to court.
: Unfortunately, human rela
tions work has got mixed up
with advertising. Although I am
a great believer in wise adver
tising, yet it must be open
and above-board. It must not be
any part of secret propaganda.
The human relations expert,
whether man or woman, should
frankly state he or she is in the
employ, at the time, of certain
corporations (one or more.) But
the terms "public" or "human"
relations need not appear on his
letterhead. If the corporation's
letterhead is used, no reference
should be made to a Public Re
lations Department or to such
an office as "Vice President in
charge of Public Relations." In
fact, the terms should be avoid
ed at all times in any public
way.
Fundamental Rules for Success
- 1. Always be honest. 2.
Handle cases only in the com
munity in which you live and
are known to be a person of ex
cellent character and in which,
preferably, you are connected
with some 'church. 3. Avoid
threatening, bribing, or being
party to ultimatums. In case of
labor troubles, "keep the ball in
the air," so to speak. Unless a
fire is constantly fed with fuel,
it ultimately goes out. 4. Avoid
using the words "never" or
"always." 5. To use a slang
phrase, a good public relations
person will not "attempt to tell

except to the corporation which
you are serving. Keep all work
very informal and personal,
without a secretary or other go
between. To succeed in this new pro
fession, a person must be pa
tient, starting with only one
corporation as a client; but the
person must know more about
said corporation than anyone
else in the community. Of course
this takes time, patience, -and
prayer; but think of the time and
money which one who is train
ing to be a doctor must spend
before he gets his first patient.
On the other hand, such a pub
lic relations man needs no office,
but can operate from his home;
in fact, an office might be a
handicap. The work should be
done either by telephone or
personal talks. Every such per
son should be a careful reader
and indexer of the local news
paper and get the friendship of
all local merchants.
Work Should Be Informal
It does not harm and perhaps
may help such persons to do
other things for a corporation
client, also. I, however, cannot
cveremhasize the importance of
absolute integrity and the
recognition by the entire com
munity bankers, merchants,
labor leaders, and wageworkers
that you stand for such. As for
income, your fee for each case
must depend upon the time con
sumed and the results achieved.
I should say that these fees
might run from $100 to $5,000.
But let the corporation deter
mine the fee. Your task. is to
have every one connected with
the problem satisfied with the
outcome.

Matter of
IS STEVENSON VANILLA?
Washington There seems to
be only one real shadow on Adlai
E. Stevenson's otherwise bright
prospects for
the Democratic
nomination this
year. Steven
son has a tre-
mendously ele-
1 vated con cep-
tion of the
Presidency. He
will not make
the claim,
which seems
a r r o g ant to
him, that he is
Joseph Also
the only man for this job he
holds in such reverence. .
You have got to believe you
are the only man for the job,
if you want the voters to believe
it too. You have got to believe
it so hard that you are willing
and even eager to slug it out
with other contenders. You have
got to believe it so hard, too,
that you are willing and even
eager to make normal political
compromises, in order to attain
the grand object of getting the
job.
Now Stevenson, as of today,
seems to be willing to slug it
out with his rivals, but he is
certainly not eager to do so. By
the same token, he is certainly
not eager, and he is perhaps
not even willing, to make the
normal, unavoidable compro
mises that every candidate must
make.
Compromising on the farm is
sue, for instance, is an obvious
necessity for him. Yet he is
agonizing over the farm issue
because, so far as one can judge,
he thinks that any kind of com
promise will call into question
his moral fitness for the great
tasks and heavy burdens of the
Presidency.
This kind of delicacy is admir
able in a private individual. But
it is also a weakness in a serious
competitor in the great but often
ugly game of politics. In this
reporter's judgment, it is the real
weakness in the Stevenson can
didacy. If Stevenson chooses, he
can actually draw strength from
the other supposed weaknesses,
such as the much-touted menace
of Senator Estes Kefauver.
The astute Chicago mayor and
political boss, Richard Daley,
and other practical-minded men
tors are now pleading with Ste
venson to fight a couple of key
primaries against Kefauver in
the way Thomas E. Dewey fought
the Oregon primary against Har
old E. Stassen in 1948. The
Dewey victory finished off Stas
sen that year. But a comparable
Stevenson victory, if he wins it
wiU not only finish off Kefauver.
It will also finish off Carmine
DeSapio's rather complicated
strategy for nominating AvereU
Harriman. After that, Stevenson
will almost be nominated by ac
clamation. , .
njlHE primaries, in ' short, are
the crux of Stevenson's prob
lem. They are a great potential
source of strength to him as well
as a grave potential danger. Oth
er Stevenson advisers less cour
ageous and politicaUy tough

In The Day's
By FRANK JENKINS
Socialized dentistry in Britain
has increased the dental health
of the British people as a whole,
but has decreased to the danger
point the number of persons en
tering the dental profession.
This interesting statement was
made the other day by Dr. Her
bert Parker Buchanan, secretary
of the British Dental association,
who is in San Francisco as the
guest of the American Dental as
sociation, which is holding its
annual meeting in the Bay City.
He added: "
"The whole future of dentistry
in Britain is in danger because
young men and women are not
entering the field. Our dental
schools are only partly filled and
the number of new dentists is
not even keeping up with the
number retiring from the field."
HOW COME?
Well, Dr. Buchanan says,
dentists in Britain are paid (by
the government) on a piecework
basis so much for filling a
tooth, so much for pulling a
tooth, so much for a set of den
tures, and son on. The best dent
ist in the kingdom gets no more
for each specific case of tooth
treatment than the merest tyro.
The result, he concludes, is
that the practice of dentistry is
reduced to a monotonous routine

only at the risk of the primaries.
They will not look at the pri
maries' promise for their man.
The reason for this, no doubt,
is their feeling that a very big
bird in the hand is worth two
birds in the bush.
The truth is that the odd little
political organization which has
formed around Adlai Stevenson
can already count up so much
convention strength that real
risk-taking, in primaries or else
where, quite naturally seems
repellent.
Significantly, the real base of
this Stevenson strength is in the
southern and border states,
which he has been quietly but
effectively - cultivating for the
last four years. Such leading
southerners as Senator Richard
Russell are actually expected to
announce for him. Even after
allowing for the possible defec
tion of President Truman in Mis
souri, the Stevenson camp counts
on a couple of hundred southern
and border state delegates.
There are lot of other states
outside the south, like Pennsyl
vania, New Jersey, Indiana, Kan
sas and of course Illinois, where
the key leaders are solidly com
mitted to Stevenson. These states
bring the delegate count to 475,
or within shooting distance, al
ready, of a clear and final vic
tory. Delegate-counting at this early
stage is of course much more
of a parlor game than a practical
political pursuit. But Stevenson's
lead at the beginning of the race
is clearly commanding. And this
lead is also reinforced by an
other kind of advantage, which
seems to this reporter even more
important.
Voters go into a national elec
tion, after all, much in the way
kids go into an ice cream parlor.
They know they want one-kind
of candidate rather than another,
generally without being able to
specify precisely why, just as
kids in an ice cream parlor want
vanilla rather than' strawberry
or chocolate, but cannot explain
precisely why they are in a
vanilla mood rather than a choc
olate mood.
"TiVERY available indicator, all
the way from President Eis
enhower's vast popularity to the
results of the political polls, now
suggest that what the voters
want for 1956 is a moderate
flavored candidate with serious
overtones. Stevenson is just that
sort of Democratic candidate. He
is more solid than Kefauver. He
is more of a moderate than Har
riman. In a time, in short, when
the electorate seems to want
vanilla. Stevenson looks like be
ing 'vanilla.
Furthermore, with the excep
tion of the probably unavailable
Chief Justice Warren, Steven
son now looks more like vanilla
than any Republican candidate
who is now being considered.
In these circumstances, the Ste
venson camp ought to be confi
dently jubilant and spoiling for
the fight ahead. The apparent
absence of these emotions in the
Stevenson camp is the biggest
reason for doubt as to Steven
son's prospects.

THAT'S socialism for you. It
sems to be working out no
better in modern Britain than in
the early English colonies on the
Atlantic seasboard of raw and
new America, where the colo
nists tried it out as a way of
life, and didn't care much for it:
They pooled their efforts and
put everything into a common
pot, out of which everyone
shared alike. The . industrious
character who arose at the crack
of dawn and labored, in the
fields until darkness drove him
home got no more in the final
divide-up than - the lazybones
who lay in bed until mid-morning
and called it a day when the
sun was still high in the west.
The worker with the green
thumb, whose corn and beans
and pumpkins flourished and
yielded heavily, got no more to
eat in the long run than the
numbskull who ' hoed out the
corn and the beans and the
squash plants and left the weeds
standing.
So, in the course of time, in
Plymouth and in Jamestown,
they tossed out socialism and
went back to free enterprise.

'Fantasies' Slated
In Mid-November
By Footlighters ;
"Footlighter Fantasies" ! will
begin a five-day run at the Fair
ground Theater the middle of
November, it was reported to
day. Footlighter's officers said lo
cal audiences will discover much
unsuspected new talent and see
many gifted "old timers' behind
the footlights. They will also
learn that "in Directors Ray
Lewis and Jerry McDougall, the
civic theater has a veritable
Rod ge rs and Hammerstein,"
Footlighter President Lavetus
Wimmer declared. -?
Original Music '
'What Ray and Jerry did was
to sit down and write practically
a complete musical review, with
some original music, lyrics and
dialogue and then blend in favo
rite nostalgic numbers that car
ry the show along a definite
theme. It is going to be one of
the most arti&tic as well as one
of the most entertaining produc
tions we have ever done," she
said.
While overall direction will
be handled by veteran Footlight
er Jerry McDougall, musical ar
rangements and accompaniment
will come from Lewis, assisted
on a second piano by Mrs. Wil
liam Kennerly, newcomer to the
Footlighters, Mrs. Wimmer said.
Dance Numbers
Colleen Hope will direct all

The review will interweave

from past eras up to the pres

ing numbers will appear such
well . known local singers ' as
Frances Thrun, Sally Champlin,
Zita Maddox and her two daugh
ters Zita and Diane, Ralph Van
Nortwick and Clyde Wheaton,
as, well as some surprise discov
coveries among the Footlighter
actors and actresses who needed
only the opportunity to prove
they could "also sing," she
stated.
We have our problems. One of
them has to do with all the auto
mobiles we are able to make and
buy. This problem is becoming
acute in the Bay area of Cali
fornia, which is now growing
even more rapidly than Los An-
geies .
A good example of it is to be
found in Marin county, which is
growing like a weed. Only a few
years ago two traffic lanes were
sufficient to handle the situa
tion on Highway 101, northward
from the Golden Gate bridge.
But the cars got too thick, and
they built a fqur-laner. Now the
fourlaner is worse congested
than the old two-laner used to be.
So they're building an eight
laner. ' -'
In almost no time at all, the
eight-laner will be worse con
