UN Activity Reviewed;
Chapter Holds Election
A review of various phases of United Nations activity
and progress, and election of officers marked the January
meeting of the Medford chapter, Oregon United Nations
association, held Thursday night at Girls Community club.
Mrs. Rex Nicodemus was named vice-president, Mrs.
Eva Ringo, secretary,' and Mrs. Kenneth Murray, treasurer.
Election of a president to succeed Moore Hamilton was post
poned at the recommendation of the nominating committee,
headed by Mrs. Harlan P. Bosworth Jr.
First speaker of a group ol
five was Mr. Bosworth, who
recently was elected to mem
bership in the American Nu
clear society in recognition
for his study and knowledge
of the subject. Mr. Bosworth's
topic had to do with the UN
and atomic research and con
trol, and he prefaced his talk
by saying that of all man's
discoveries, none had made
as much progress as fast as
the atcm. The speaker then
said that atomic research
holds the greatest potential
for the benefit of man of any
thing yet discovered.
Mr. Bosworth reviewed
atomic uses in the scientific,
military and power field, and
stressed that the possibilities
for medicine, agriculture and
metallurgy are considered
practically unlimited. The
speaker reminded his audi
ence of President, Eisenhow
er's proposal through the
United Nations for peaceful
use and control of atomic
energy, of this country's shar
ing of knowledge and ma
. terials, and the world con
gresses held to share informa
tion. The world congress on
atomic energy held at Geneva
has been called the greatest
and most important gathering
ever held, he said.
The second conference
dealt with thermo - nuclear
problems, Mr. Bosworth said,
and added that three , panels
have been set up to study the
matter of irradiated waste dis
posal, legal problems, and to
study the transportation of ir
radiated materials.
Problem For People
Whether the United States
should deal directly . with
other nations in the matter
of promoting atomic energy
for peaceful uses, or direct all
its efforts through the United
Nations Atomic Energy
agency is a problem for the
people to decide, he conclud
ed.
Jim Frohnmayer, president
of the International Relations'
league at Medford high
school, spoke of the role of
the UN agencies which are
providing technical assistance
in areas throughout the world
where it is needed. The young
man reviewed the teams of
experts sent to these coun
tries, and spoke of the fellow
ship provided for training
these experts.
The speaker said the. United
States has given strong sup
port to this technical assis
tance program since 1951,
that it is definitely tied to
the nation's foreign policy,
and strengthens the position
of both the United States and
the United Nations through
out the world. '
He pointed out that the
USSR had at first ridiculed
this program, but later adopt
ed the idea. Although the re
sults are hard to -measure, it
is generally conceded to be a
program which should be
continued and strengthened,
he said, and added that 132
countries and territories are
now involved in technical as
sistance projects. Money pro
vided through UN channels
does away with the "Santa
Claus" stigma he, said, and
the entire program lessens
tensions and competitions.
Folic Force
Mrs. Nicodemus spoke
briefly about the United Na
tions police force. She said a
review of available material
on the subject indicated most
persons believe that such a
police force, if kept small
and properly used, could
complement the work of the
UN and add to its prestige.
She said authorities apparent
ly agree that "military men
have a place in establishing
peace," and that an UN po
lice force would promote a
feeling of security and might
promote disarmament.
Speaking on how the UN
might be strengthened was
Bruce - Manley, former chap
ter president. Mr. Manley
pointed out that much of the
suspicion with which the UN
had been regarded in its be
ginning had faded away, and
that there was concrete evi
dence of UN settling of dis
putes and conflicts which
might have , led to great
trouble or wars.
He pointed out that the
American Association for the'
United Nations recommends
several ideas to strengthen
the UN. They recommend
opening UN to all nations,
limiting the veto power, stay
ing out of purely domestic
issues and the . use of the
World Court in an advisory
capacity on certain issues. He
pointed out that the AAUN
believes moral pressures
should be used to their full
est, with armed force as a
last resort. ,
AAUN Ideas
AAUN would codify inter
national law, stabilize sources
of UN revenue and promote

eU talk
By KEN HARDY
Here's a suggestion about SHRINK
AGE ... a complex subject that
deserves more discussion in future
columns. Most
clothes you
buy bear a
m a n u f a c-
turer's I a b el
indicating the
. i
L I m a x i m u m
V I shrinkage. To
t h e average
doesn't mean much to know that
the garment won't shrink more
than 1 96 . so translate this into
inches.
If a dress has a waist width of,
say, 25 inches and the shrinkage
is 1 , that means that the shrink
age in width will be Vi inch or
less. If it's 50 inches long, it won't
shrink more than Vz inch in
length. This minimum shrinkage
means your clothes will retain good
fit. If the shrinkage goes up to
2, be sure there is no risk of
the garment getting too tight (2
shrinkage on 25 inches is Vi inch,
or 50 inches, 1 inch, etc.). Any
greater listed shrinkage should
make you hesitate unless the gar
p.ent is unusually loose .itting.
If the manufacturer will not guar
antee a garment against shrinkage
under normal dry cleaning proce
dures, do not expect your dry
cleaner to.
Proper cleaning assures minimum
shrinkage of any fabric . . besides
keeping your clothes fresh and
nsw looking. See us for expert dry
cleaning . . . often! Phone SP
