SAN FRANCISCO, June 50 United Nations today completed an ambitions world charter for turning their mighty war- born alliance into a permanent organization to prevent future ware. The new world charter will be adopted formally by the United Nations conference Monday and dispatched immediately to capitals throughout the world for ratification. The nearly 200 delegates will sign the historic document on Tuesday a fewrhours before President Truman, gives it his blessing and declares this conference adjourned. The tedious nine-week job here represents the efforts of the peacs loving nations--for the second time in a generation--to forge a cooperative peace organization out of a wartime coalition. Their primary objective is to maintain peace and security for all.

Twenty-five yeiax ago at Versailles the world's statesmen created the League of Nations with the objective of outlawing war. It failed because of its inability to enforce its aims. This time the world organization will be equipped with "teeth" to meet force with force, if necessary to preserve the peace.

It will be impaneled within two weeks or so. Although the 1943-44 jury "studiously avoided action on the gambling situation, according to the wording of its own report last December, it was just about a year ago that the inquisitors were involved in an emhroglio over gambling. District Attorney Ferrell end Sheriff McGrath were in a row over responsibility for law enforcement; the County Ministerial association "took on" the grand jury and Judge McNutt, and the jury in turn took oft the ministers.

Approved Meadows "During Mr. Schmidt's and Mr. Hess's previous discussions with you, they both approved'the Bay Meadows site. This opinion has not changed.

There are also several ojher potential sites in that area which could be utilized. The Bay Meadows site could be developed into a fine class 2 airport At this time we do not believe conditions warrant the construction of a larger facility. We firmly believe that what we need are more smaller airports. Experience has shown that, else being equal, two class 2 airports can be constructed for the cost of class 3 airport and that four class 2 airports can be constructed for the cost of one class 4 airport.
