LukJT n lr-r hi-trh n-rrr I i Associated Press News Analyst WASHINGTON UFh- Ah Inlluentlal Benate group has given President Elsenhower a blank check In de. elding whether to support the idea of a United Nations' conference to consider changes In Its charter. After many hearings, this group a subcommittee of (he Senate Foreign Relations Committee, headed by Sen. George (D-Ga( aaid yesterday Elsenhower should be free to suit himself on backing the conference. Even 1 he did, that wouldn't necessarily mean there would be any charter changes. The United States could block any It didn't like. This Is the background on the problem: When the founding nations created the U. N. In 1B45 they knew they had not established a perfect organisation and that time and ex perience would probably show a need for changes. They provided tor that In the charter Itself. They said In Article 109 that If by IMS no changes had been made, then this year the General Assem bly should have the question of chsrter changes on its list of problems to be considered at i s meeting nest month. The 60 nstlons in the Assembly could squint at the charter-change problem snd forget It. Or, they could set up a U.N. conference to consider changes. They wouldn't have to put the conference to work in 1955. They could let It start later. There c o u 1 d be no changes linless: 1. Two thirds ot the conference approved. J. Two thirds of the parliaments of the 60 U.N. nations approved 3. The Big Five the United States. Russia, Britain, France and Nationalist China also ap proved. In short, even though two thirds of the U.N. members approved any one of the Big Five could block any changes, simply by its parliament or congress saying no. In the case of the United States, there would be no approval unless two thirds of the Senate gave their blessing. ' Any change In the charter in the foreseeable future Is unlikely. There Jh no world clamor for it. Far from it. Russia already has expressed opposition to changes at this time. That In Itself, unless the Russians have changed their mind, kills any chance of revision. As long ago as 1953 the Eisen hower administration, principally through Secretary of State Dulles, was on record in favor of a con ference to consider changes. But that, as pointed out, Is a long way from actually approving any changes. And by this time the adminis tration may have had second thoughts on a conference. Former Presidents Truman and Hoover last spring both said they thought there was small chance of revi sions In the charter now. A fight within the U.N. Itself on changes might not only damage I he organization but wreck It, par ticularly if the United States and Russia, which have been getting along better lately, wound up In a slugging match. m HAL BOYLE By ED CREAGII (For Hal Itoylel GETTYSBURG, Pa., Ifl One thlr.g this proud but friendly bat tlofitlri town means to do: It Is doing Its best to take In stride Its mlnent part-time resident, Dwight D, Elsenhower.

Langlie of Washington told the 47th annual Governors' Conference to day how his stale saved nr. esti mated 200 lives by "declaring war" on highway slaughter. Lauglie's report on Washington's campaign was a hlirnllehl of the conference's discussion of how to Improve highway safety. The sub ject Is one of the most Important being considered by the meeting of 46 governors. Langlie gave newsmen a pre view of his special report yesterday He said thnt In 1953 he decided "this nice stuff" was not solving the safety problem. Washington of ficials therefore Issued a "declar ation of war" against highway ac cidents. 'We decided whether they liked it or not, we were colng to en force the law." Langlie said. An intensive publicitv campaign was waged, to Het people know of the "war" on accidents. Traffic laws were enforced ruth lessly Even some slate officlaLs wero arrested. Safety conference.1 were held, stressing highway courtesy and the rules of the road. A point system was installed to keep track of drivers' safety viola tions and to rule those with poor records oif the roads. "For driving drunk, you lose your license right then," Lang'.le said, "itpckless driving puts you right on the edge." Those whe compile enough points to be close to losing their licenses are called in and told "you have so many points to go and we take your license," Langlie said. The state also launched a drive to correct any engineering faults thnt intent result In accidents. The governor said that within 48 hours of any fatality, an engineer, the man tn charge of the area stale natrol. and the officer who handled the case examine the site closely for any design deficiencies.

So Gettysburg's altitude Is. for Ihe most part, to give the Presi dent A smile and a wave and then to forget about him. The town knows he likes It that way. The town rather likes it, too. Borne folks here have worked up a lather over a report, published recently in a magazine, that the porches of houses overlooking the golf course nre in demnnd as bal cony seats when the President is playing. Rrpoiicr.s and photographers playing behind t h e President checked on that one last weekend. The verdict: Not a peekcr on any porch.

Thv unusuallv large stucks deal ers' hands as Ine model year ncp.rs the close will ihey be sold Rt a profit, or at big discounts and dangerously liberal payment terms? It's one of Hit' hottest debates today. Never belore hr.ve auto makers turned out so many cars. Never before nave Americans buught so many. Never before has outstand ing automobile credit been so huge. Before World War II Americans owed 1' . billion dollars on their car- mis summer they owe 12'i billion. Aulo makers and finance com panies say there's nothing to worry about. National Income has gone up steadily. The load isn't too heavy for prosperous Americans to carry, they say, and besides much of thu present prosperity is due io credit buying. For proof they point to the low rate of repossessions, to the Amer ican hahit of meeting payments even when things tighten up a little. "Our aulo loan delinquencies are at an all-time low," says F. R, Wills, president o( General Motors Acceptance Corp. universal c.I.T. Corp. reports mat since tne war Americans have financed 84 billion dollars to buy cars and hnve so far repaid 12 billion. It thinl:s 10 million car buyers will complete payments this veer and be driving debt-free cars. But others Rren't so sure. The Federnl Reserve Board, for exam ple. Is nervous about the total debt In all fields. Corporate debt has been ?oimr up. and bank loans to business have crown at a season when they usually drop. The Feder al (loot creeps higher, and state and local indebtedness swells at a faster rate. The home building boom his been fed by easy mort gage terms. The National Automobile Dealers Assn. wains Its 30.001) members: "There's nothing smart about too liberal credit terms. Right now. it's up to dealers to put a stop to crazv credit, and starl back nn the road to sanity." Court Sets Trial Cases SAN FRANCISCO i UP) In an eftort to insure a uniform decision and avoid possible contlicting rules involving illegally obtained evi dence, the California Supreme Court will hear 16 cases trans ferred Irom district courts of ap peal. 1 All 18 cases were affected by Ihe high court's April 27 ruling that evidence obtained by listen ing devices or defective search warrants Is inadmissible ln crim inal trials. Enforcement officers maintain that lower court Judges have misinterpreted the ruling. Supreme Court Clerk William I. Sullivan announced that the cases will be set for argument as soon as possible and may be consolidat ed on the same calendar. The high court, by hearing a large number of cases directly and eliminating usual appeal procedures, was ex pected to give a ruling that will clarify the Issue. Mine Workers Eye Contract SAN FRANCISCO (UP) The International Union of Mine, Mill and Smelter Workers today worked on details ol a tentative agreement to end a 40-day-old strike against 12 American Smelting and Refining Co. plants but no back to work move was tn sight. Maurice Travis, the union's com mittee chairman, said a "substan tial agreement" was reached last night. Asked when work could be ex pected to resume, Travis said, "II will be a few days jet. We're in no hurry." Douglas H. Soular. company rep resentative at the talks, said the tentative settlement was "some kind of agreement." No details were released. Final agreement will be subject to un ion ratification. The union struck the company's plants here, at Selby in Contra Costa County and 10 others across the nation to back demands for a L'O-cent hourly pny raise ana fringe benefits. Some 7000 workers were affected. EXTENSION TOP FAVORITES among he galaxy of stars appearing with Polack Brothers Shrine Circus are the Klauser Family and their educated bears.
