Thought for Today the king- commanded, 'f arid they Daniel, and cast him into the den of lions. 1 Now the king spake and said (v- unto' Daniel, Thy God Whom 'I thou servest continually, He will deliver Daniel 6:16.

Rights and Freedoms Thus far in its existence the Nations has been con cerned chiefly with the "how" international relations.

This it hiehlv important yet a wav it is also momentary and superficial. For international re lations cannot be enduringly cord- ial' until their "'what" and "why" have been examined with respect to the billions of people affected by them. The ultimate purpose of United Nations comes right down to- the individual human be'ings who occupy this planet. In the world's councils they seem generally to be thought of and referred to in bulk, when tney are sidered at all. They are the mon man, the masses, the prole tariat, what you wilL Yet the UN, however much it may generalize, cannot ignore that ultimate purpose, is that man shall be permitted to live out his days in peace, and that governments shall give legal, economic and social help in minimiz ing his fears and promoting his happiness.

The UN has faced this fundamental issue by appointing a com- -mission to draft an international of rights. The commission must proceed from the simple declaration of the UN Charter that one purpose of the United Nations ie to encourage "respect for human rights and for fundamental freedoms for all without distinc tion as to race, sex, language or xni5 declaration must be de fined and made specific The difficulties connected with the task are all too apparent. They begin with the various answers to the question: What are human rights and fundamental freedoms Each nation has its answer, "-complicated by many considera tions. Tradition, culture, and religion affect it So do climate, density of population, and the abundance and development of natural resources. "What are the human rights of a Chilean farm worker, an Arab nomad, a Chinese peasant woman, an African jungle hunter? What are the fnudamental freedoms of an American industrialist, a Russian mechanic, a Javanese plantation hand, a Spanish fisher- And how far will the UN go in "encouraging respect" for these rights? What, for example, will U.S.

Intervention in Nicaragua Held Causeof IU-Wi Latin American Hearts Still Rankle Twenty Years Afterwards By LESLIE JH1GHLEY Washington Twenty years ago the United States took one of the most criticized steps in the history of international diplomacy. It sent Marines to Nicaragua, a Central American republic about the size of Alabama. move provoked considerable animosity in Latin America to ward the United States. So deep was that even the Roosevelt good neighbor policy has not been so successful as it might have been in convincing Latin Ameri cans that their sovereignty will never again be violated. Every inter-American confer-lce has seen a strong stand taken 7 Latin American delegates against intervention by any one nation in the affairs of another.

How Nations Voted In 1945 Uruguayan Fo Minister Eduardo Rodriguez proposed that the 21 Ameri can nations authorize eollectivt intervention whenever there was threat to hemispheric peace or whenever any government violated the human rights of man. Other Latin American nations objected to it almost unanimously. 'lhe argument was that "collec tive intervention" would in prac- U. S. intervention, since the United States was the only American republic in a position to us strong armed forces.

One Latin American diplomat put it this way: Latin American nation is found to have violated the hu- it do about the religious distinc tion of caste in India What about the fundamental freedoms" of Jew and Arab to occupy the homeland of Palestine What about punish ment for political opposition to a dictatorship? What of the disfranchised in a free democracy? are some of the issues on which peace depends. Worldwide freedom of responsible, construc tive human action seems impos sibly Utopian. So do worldwide justice and fair opportunity and decent living conditions. So, too, does worldwide peace, which is impossible without these other conditions. Their achievement, then, will ive to be attempted, hopeless tnough the task may seem.

Perhaps the attempt will suggest a method already apparent recent speech Warren Austin spoke of- two articles of the UN Charter as being "de finitive and they are the law." But, with all respect for the distinguished American delegate's learning, are they? Is not the Charter an agreement which on occasion can be broken by certain governments through use of the veto It scarcelv can be called law when there is no central authority capable of enforcing it. If, with time and experience, such an authority should rolve from the UN, then perhaps the Utopian goals of worldwide liberty, equality and security mav become visible. 5 fnrmkotwt noderalmed. nod He tell.

The U.

government said American interests were in danger and had to be protected. Latin Americans, howt termed this action an outrageous intervention in the internal aflairs of a sovereign nation. They claim that American interests were not rolved in a purely national con flict. This is what happened: Dr. Juan B.

Sacassa. of the Lib eral party, won the election from President Adolfo Diaz. Conserva- Diaz refused to hand the over. A revolution broke out. It was said then that the State Department's sympathi th Diaz.

Stirason Was There Col. Henry L. Stimson, latei secretary of -state and secretary of war, was sent to put this plan intc effect as the' personal representative of President Coolidge.

Arrival of the Marines brought tortn one of the most colorful and controversial personalities in Latin America Augusto Cesar Sandmo. He was a "bandit" to the State Department To Latin Americans he was and still is an outstanding nero and patriot. Sandino, a salesman bv profes sion, organized a force of 800- men. He was with the Liberals. Col.

Stimson's mission had three objectives: 1. U. S- supervision of the 1928 elections. 2. Organization' of a "non-partisan" national guard commanded by American officers.

Only 100 of his 800-man force decided to continue to fight. more than two yeads 5.000 Marines vainly attempted to capture Sandino. The adventure cost more than 150 Marines' lives and unestimated millions of dollars. The men who foug-ht with San dino loved and feared him. They called him "The Man." One of his officers told this story about him: A general and 25 men out-ma-iuvered a superior column of U.
