In these conferences, so replete with tales of want and misery, Norway's report was pure sunshine. The Norwegian delegate reported that, after Norway had received valuable help in the first peace year, she had contributed $6,000,000 to the current UNRRA program and had established a further credit of $3,000,000 which represents one-half of one per cent of her national income.

After agreeing that UNRRA should cease and that the U. N. should take over, she proposed that contributing nations should consider the possibility ot donating another one-half of one per cent of their national incomes for the hiatus between the ending of and the nest harvest period. Defended by Norway Norway also came to America's defense. She said she could not agree with Poland that American plans were only "nice words."
