Corvallis Strong support for United Nations finan cial, military, and delegation of more authority was fav ored by Oregonians balloting on the final 1958 Great De cisions issue, "Whose UN Is It?" Ballots were tabulated this week at Oregon State college, closing the eight-weeks' pro gram carried on in 32 Oregon counties to increase under standing of key foreign pol icy issues the U.S. faces this year. In balloting on whether the U. S. should work for im portant changes in the UN, Oregonians rated policy alter natives in the following order: Forty-five per cent thought the UN should be given more authority to enforce its de cisions. Thirty-three per cent said the U. S. should attempt no important changes in the UN now, feeling that the UN charter reflects the political realities of the world situa tion. Under the charter, any major issue in the Security Council is subject to veto by "great power" members U.S., Britain, China, Trance, Russia. Split On Veto Oregonians were about evenly split on the veto, how ever, with 27 per cent voting for abolishment of the veto for the five permanent mem bers of the' Security Council. Twenty per cent said the secretary general should have more power to act independ ently. In both the Suez and Hungarian crises, the UN Sec retary General Dag Hammar- skjold performed a key role. Responsibilities included the placement of UN troops in the Near East and negotiation for investigation and relief in the Hungary crisis. Should the U.S. support es tablishment of a permanent UN police force? Oregonians favored present proposals in the following order: Forty-two per cent said a UN military "staff," only, should be maintained on a permanent basis with pledged forces available in member countries for emergency mo bilization. By contrast, 30 per cent favored maintaining a per manent force at a UN base, ready to go into action on short notice anywhere in the I world. Only 11 per cent thought no effort, should be made to set up a permanent force. Some observers con tend that a UN police force can have no military power if a large nation chooses to ig nore it. Thirty-eight per cent fav ored token police force to represent" the prestige of the UN. while 23 per cent vot ed for a large, well-equipped permanent UN military force. Thirty - three per cent thought the UN should use complete units from existing armed forces- of mem ber states, while 17 per cent favored recruitment of sold iers for the force on an indi vidual volunteer basis. On the question sbf whether the U. S. should , continue to pay the largest share of the UN's budget, balloting was as follows:" t Seventy-one per cent said the U. S. may have to carry more of the burden for the present while urg'ing other nations to contribute more, as thev can afford it. The! U. S. now pays 30 per cent of the regular UN budget; Rus sia pays about 17 per cent. Forty-three per' cent of the voters maintained' that the U. S. current share of the budget is not too- much of a drain on a country which pro duces 40 per cent of the world's goods and services. In the same vein, '37 per cent said underdeveloped coun tries should not be expected to pay a larger share of the budget, since these are the countries that have most need for economic and tech nical assistance. . Twenty - seven per cent thought communist countries should contribute: a larger share. Should the U. S. continue to make the extensive use of the UN as an important in strument of U. S. policy? Opinions rated as follows: Sixty-two per cent said we should be willing to work through the UN where prac tical while recognizing that other foreign policy channels may be more useful in some cases. Only 32 .- per cent thought we should try to handle all major internation al disputes . through the UN only. Fifty - two per cent favored giving greater support to the UN's non-political activities.
