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.

thlr.g this proud but friendly bat

You'll hear this determination

neighbors to the President. Mostly
they put It something like this-

Langlie Tells Of His
State's War On Highway
Deaths At Governor Meet
CHICAGO (UP) Gov. Arthur B.
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.
