Choose Your Cave
October 17 to 24 has been designated as "United Nations Week." Plans call for a national program for "understanding and support of the United Nations."
According to information released by the sponsoring organizations the week's activities will include "visual displays, drama and pageants, forums and debates, articles in school and local papers, special assembly programs, and other types of devices for focusing attention upon the fact that there is a U.N. and that it has been doing things."
With the Berlin dispute now in the hands of the security council and British Foreign Minister Bevin issuing warnings of impending disaster, the U.N. is passing through its most critical testing period. The western powers are charging that the Soviet action in Berlin is a threat to international peace and security.
With Russia still in possession of its veto power the western powers are not turning the Berlin crisis over to the U.N. with any hope of getting a workable solution to the problem. If their action means anything, it must be that the west is ready to face a showdown with the east.
The western powers have been careful to warn the world that if the split develops into war, the responsibility for the "black fur" of atomic destruction will go to Russia. This is not very important. If atomic warfare comes, the question of who is to blame will become quite foolish. The important one will be, "Who is going to survive?"
The same question of survival faces the U.N. If Russia doesn't want to compromise and decides to take a walk the entire world organization will fall apart. The world will then gather into two hostile camps and be forced into an armament race which will set the stage for actual combat.
The sponsors of United Nations week want to focus attention on the "fact that the U.N. has been doing things." The attention has been focused. All that remains is to start doing things. In the meantime the sponsors might start working on an alternate program called "Choose Your Cave Week." There might not be a United Nations by October 17.
Wistful
Dear Editor:
Friday's editorial, "Mr. Wallace's Circus," might have been a mislaid Bitter Bird essay, or a calculated bid for letters to the editor. As a sincere fulfillment of the promise on page two of that issue for editorial columns that "analyze, interpret, and make readily understandable" it falls a little short.
Mr. Wallace's campaign may lose some of its "bizarre, entertaining" carnival spirit when viewed in a different perspective under a Dewey-Dulles-Taft regime.
All the clowning is a little wistful today.
He Started For The Road,
But Never Left The Yard
Windsor, Vt. — (UP) — Clarence Martin didn't get much mileage out of his new truck.
Mr. Martin watched it being unloaded from a freight car, climbed in behind the wheel and started it. Only 100 feet along his route it became stalled on the railroad track.
The owner leaped to safety as the truck was demolished by a freight train.
