The meeting was held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. George Rode in the Griffin Creek dis trict, and followed a potluck dinner. Following the Suez discus sion, the group voted to direct an inquiry to United Nations headquarters seeking informa tion on how that body might proceed to help solve the situa tion. First speaker of the evening was Mr. Rode, who talked on the structure of the United Na tions. Mr. Rode, an attorney, stressed that one can never come to know an organization by merely studying its make up. but only by watching its func tions and operation. Mr.. Rode said that many people have a misconception of the structure and function of the UN, and added that too many believe that problems are solved by merely forming an organization to deal with these problems. Mr. Rode pointed out that many forget the United Nations is only one part of the super structure of international law. and that the vast amount of precedent and history - making procedures in the past cannot just be cast off. Through inter national law, nations have come to rely upon certain solutions to certain problems, he said, and added that in many cases these have worked satisfactorily be tween nations. "International law is a great realist," he added. "It realizes that situations exist, but does not attempt to solve them." While many citizens .cry out against secret treaties and secret negotiations between nations, Mr. Rode said that in actual practice much good is often ac complished by secret meetings whereas these same problems, openly discussed, would not be solved so satisfactorily. He also pointed out that the United Na tions should be regarded as a "last ditch" resort, and not as a "catch all" for every dispute between nations. In evaluating the United Na tions, Mr. Rode stressed that everyone should remember that what should be and what is are two different things, and not expect too much of the UN. Harlan P. Bosworth reviewed the history of the Suez canal, telling of its construction, cost and operation in the past and pointed out that President Ga mal Nasser "jumped the gun" but by 12 years, since the canal was to have been put under Egyptian control at that time. He explained how the canal stock is owned, and said that for some unexplained reason, investors are buying the stock In considerable quantity since the canal was nationalized by the Egyptian government. Mr. Bosworth said many be lieve President Nasser's move is an effort to advance his own cause, and to unite the Arabs, possibly in a holy war against the western nations. It was pointed out that Russia is seiz ing every opportunity to aid the Egyptians. During the business session, Conducted by President Law rence Solin, various members of the chapter offered to aid the state organization financially.
