Knowland and The UN When Senator Knowland of California speaks of the United Nations, he ie usually on pretty shaky ground. He seems to give play to his emotions and give short shrift to reason and fact. Recently he said the UN no longer can considered an effective instrument of collective security.

He said this hope was shattered by the Korean war, wherein the UN 'so tied us down' that stalemate was the only possible outcome of the war. He added that we were denied the right of "hot pursuit" and the Red enemy was protected behind the Yalu River border. Let's look at these items in reverse order. The record is plain that it was not the UN alone but our own first Democratic and then which barred hot pursuit and bombing beyond the Yalu. This policy was followed to avoid possible enlargement of the war to major proportions, and also because our troops in Korea and our bases in Japan enjoyed freedom from enemy bombing.

As for the stalemate, that, too, stemmed from deliberate American policy aimed at confining the ar, not least because it was assumed our people were not willing to take on the tax burdens of an all-out effort. Whatever the dominant attitude in the we tied ourselves down. Admittedly we were keenly disappointed at the limited extent of practical UN military support in Korea. We wanted more help, and constant- But Knowland might re-read the history of our early decisions on Korea if he imagines we did not regard it in our own interest to defend Korea alone if necessary. A common charge then was that we promoted UN action to gain moral backing for what we intended to do anyway The element of truth there was that we recognized Korea in enemy hands was a dagger of land pointing at Japan.

And' Japan we have always seen as vital to America's own safety. Actually, the UN never has been an effective instrument of collective security, in the sense of having thfe-power to enforce peace or block major aggression. Its strength lay in unity among all the great powers, and this never existed, as Russia quickly showed. A careful look at the UN charter, with its great power veto, and at the diplomatic history of the just before Korea, would demonstrate this to most Senator Knowland, Why Not, Not long ago it was proposed that Chief Justice Earl Warren go before a joint session of Congress to spell out the needs of the federal judicial system. Some objections were raised, presumably on the score that such an appearance wouldn't be dignified.

The argument looks a little thin. A Chief Justice hardly can be accused descending into the political arena when he addresses a joint congressional session. That body 'represents both parties obviously functions: important addresses from the President and from visiting heads of state. It is true that, though co-equal with the congress and the Executive, the Supreme Court customarily remains a bit aloof from those branches of government. But there would seem no sound reason why that aloofness should be seriously impaired by a single appearance, of the Chief Justice in the legislative halls.

The federal courts desperately more judicial manpower if American justice is not to bog down. Why not have the Chief Justice present the story? VIEWS OF OTHERS Time For Revolt! It is high time we folks, in Eastern Arkansas wake to the fact that Memphis has little or no real interest in our welfare. They are out for all they can get out of us. Up until now, we have refrained from entering the dispute over the Dixon-Yates controversy because it has highly technical aspects, and there have been so many misleading smoke screens that it has been impossible to separate facts from fiction. We decided to go along with our Senators Fulbright and McClellan in the matter because they are in a better position to know what is best for the nation's interest.

But our blood boils when a hand-picked Memphis to become the dog in the manger. After trying every method at his command to block the Dixon-Yates plant at West Memphis, he has now arisen in his pompous majesty and announced thet Memphis will build its own generating plants before it wili buy any power from TVA that comes from Dixon- Yates. Opponents of Dixon-Yates, including the august Commercial Appeal and Press-Scimitar, have called the Dixon-Yates project virtually everything from a "big steal" to a crime being committed by the Republicans. We have never heard the Memphis papers term the spending of millions of dollars by the government to convert a mud island into a city industrial site a steal. But why should the engineers use the tax money to build any one city an industrial area.

If that wasn't a big steal, what was it? We sincerely believe that had Dixon-Yates decided to build that power plant in Shelby County, or even in Tennessee, that the Memphis blow-hards would have hailed it as a great boon to the Mid-South. Certainly, we folks in Mississippi, Arkansas and the Missouri Bootheel, have made Memphis prosperous. Memphis is the cotton capital of a great area. Tennessee? Certainly not! The very growth of Memphis has come from the millions of dollars we fools in the Delta have poured into their pockets. For many years was represented in the Senate by Senator McKellar.

Now that he has gone from the picture, the Bluff City isn't getting the gravy it once did and they are determined to play the "dog in the manger." Well, if Mayor Tobey wants to build his own power plant. Have at it. We're sure that the consumers will no longer be able to boast of those cheap power rates rates made possible by the expenditure of millions of dollars of taxpayers' money. (Remember you and I have a part of that tax bill, too.) If we folks in Arkansas would turn our attention toward Little Rock, our state would be in a much better financial position. We spend millions of dollars in Memphis and get only abuse In return.

Why not "Help Build Arkansas?" We've already done the Job for Memphis, Now let them alonft. Unfortunately, we've seen time and time in the past, that they won't leave us alone. Trade at home. It may take longer to get what you want, but you can set it. Or we can continue to be foolish and give Memphis a they will use to beat us over the head.

High Noon Peter Edson's Washington Column African-Asian Talks Will Cover A Wide Range of Subject Matter WASHINGTON The forthcoming Bandung, Indonesia, conference of 30 invited African and Asian nations has been cruelly described in advance as a meeting for the world's greatest display of inferiority complexes. All 30 nations have been thoughtlessly referred to as underdeveloped, backward, uncivilized and even second class. They are nearly all former colonies of once-greater western European powers. Most of these colonies gained their independence after World War U.

They are all intensely national and proud of their new freedom. They like to recall that they all had rich civilizations long before the Christian era and long before America was discovered. Their spokesmen say they don't like to be looked down on as inferiors. They say that much of the idealism of World War when there was much talk of equality among all now disappeared. The kind of democratic speeches they listened to when the United Nations was first founded are no longer heard.

In the last few years these former colonies say they have been left out in the making of many important decisions. They have been (rented as poor relations and not as equals. This they consider particularly true in economic matters. The pre- Korean crisis cut in world raw rubber prices and the post-Korean dumping of U. S.

agricultural surpluses on foreign markets are cited as actions taken without regard to the consequences on Afro-Asian countries which have been princi- i pal suppliers of raw materials. If backed into a corner, representatives of these countries will express gratitude for the UN technical assistance, TJ. S. point four and economic aid. Their complaint is that too much of this aid went to Europe, not enough to them, where the need was greater to foster their social revolution.

There is much vague talk among Afro-Asian diplomats of "spiritual" considerations and "cultural" values which are not understood by the western countries. They argue that the West sends out automobiles and tractors, chewing gum and bottled pop, movies and jazz. But the West doesn't send them enough writers and artists, students and teachers who will explain the philosophy of democracy and how it can be applied to their problems. Some of the Afro-Asian representatives feel that just getting together and talking about these thi will help. They feel that their prime ministers and foreign ministers are i the intellectual equals of Chou En- I lai, or Nehru or Molotov or any I of the Western diplomats.

Sitting around a table and discussing their problems will, they feel, help them i find solutions. It will of course be impossible i for the Afro-Asian delegates to find 1 answers for all their riddles in the I six days of their Bandung confer- i ence 18 to 24. That will be time enough for only one major speech from each of the 30 gations if they listen to five speeches a day. The official language, incidentally, will be only lan- guage which they all have in common. There will be many meetings on the side, the.

delegates believe. As much may be accomplished in bilateral or regional talks as in formal sessions of all 30 premiers or foreign ministers. Present plans are said to be that there will be no formal agenda in advance. Two secretariats are working on subjects that might be considered. In Jakarta, Indonesia, political questions are being listed.

In Colombo, Ceylon, economic questions are being drawn up. The conference will decide on its own agenda after it convenes. The main topics the organizers of the conference say they want to talk about include: The promotion of good will. Exploration and advancement of their mutual relatio Consideration of their social, economic and cultural problems. Discussion of national soveriegnty, racialism and colonialism.

Review of the contribution which African and Asian people can make to world peace. Almost any subject could be considered under this broad outline. But It is perhaps significant that "world communism" the number one topic in the not listed. Unquestionably the first Afro- Asian conference will lead to others. The Bandung meeting is only a start.

What will come out of these new force for world interdependence may be not even-the delegates themselves can prdict today with any accuracy.

Sunday School Written for Service Mrs. A.

S. asks "What is the, meaning of a diastolic pressure of zero?" This, I shall answer in, a moment. The blood flowing through the arteries presses on the walls of these tubes just as water does on a rubber hose. The degree of pressure is measured by tying a band or cuff around the arm and ing it with air until the air pros- sure equals that in the artery. When the heart contracts it forces the blood out into the arteries and this produces (he high, point of the pressure.

When the heart relaxes the pressure of blood i in the arteries falls somewhat. The high point of the pressure is called "systolic" and the low point is called "diastolic." This is why doctors give two figures for the blood pressure, such as 120-80. When the diastolic pressure is recorded as zero, therefore, means that the physician has been unable to meaaure the low point of the pressure, usually because one of the valves in the heart is leaking seriously so that the low point of pressure drops way below Its normal level. The amount of blood present, the condition of the arteries, especially their elasticity, the thickness of the blood, and the nerve supply to the walls of the arteries also influence the blood pressure. (It is important to remember that each blood-pressure history must be considered The blood pressure docs not remain the same all the time.

Nervous disturbances, cold, exercise and excitement, lend to increase the blood pressure. For this reason it is often true that the first test of the blood pressure in a doctor's office may bo higher normal, just because of the ex- citement of the visit. A constantly high blood pressure can come from heart trouble It can come Xrom a disease which thickens the blood. It can result also from a decrease in the elasticity of the arteries caused by deposits of calcium which have made them hard and brittle. This is the hlood pressure.

which accompanies hardening of the arteries. There are many other kinds of high blood pressure in some of which the cause can be discovered and in others not. It is certain that worrying about the blood pressure will not help and may be harmful.

This, was Important, since after two rounds of trumps dummy had only three trumps to take care of declarer's two losing hearts and two losing diamonds. South gave up only one spade and one diamond, thus making his doubled contract. There would have been a very different story to loll if West had led a heart to begin with.
