She tells the house of repre

not only as a vital potential
threat but as a waiting sword of
Damocles, ready to descend at a
moment's notice, is contrary to
the interests, of the United Na

She adds:

greater resources at her com

longer she Is left in possession of
these resources the stronger she
must become," -
YOU must have noted in the
