THE ORACLE AGENCIES NO SOLUTION —— While applaudifig “the purposes of Wiley agencies of the United Nations, we dowlt that many of them represent a preetical solution of the problems that con- front the peoples of the world. At the present time, the United Na- tiene Educational, Scientific and Cultural Sewenieation, often referred to as UNES- | WO plane a greater effort to “quench the - for knowledge among the masses of world.” A program, outlined by the newly-ap- pointed director, speaks of throwing the ferourees and prestige of the agency into the battle against illiteracy and ignor- mee. ft will involve an effort to make evellable to all persons the scientific one cultural achievements of the various eomptries through press, wireless and mo- Wow pletures, Included are efforts to re- ewe euch shortages as wood pulp, news- radio receiving and | transmitting *sihaeacn raw stock for filmsand movie eee» We ave interested to learn exactly how the agency expects to reach the mil- ‘fepe of wneducated people who reside in Aste, Indie and Africa. Just how it will wwe available to these illiterates scien- ‘eand cultural achievenments is some- of « puzzle. eel¥e suspect that greater progress be made if the United Nations devoted its time to working on the of governments and leaving to the governments the efforts to make contact with their people. WATER NOT ALWAYS FKEE ~.Mieny people think that water and wir ave free and while the statement is true ote aif, it in not correct as to water in eopmection with the necessities of those whe live im the great cities of the world. Por example, the City of New York, hee expended about $800,000,000 in its wete? supply facilities. Even now, addi- tonal dame and concrete-lined tunnels are Whew constructed to guarantee the neces- ‘WEP @ally capply of water for the nearly eh million people who are served in (hi metropolitan area.

On several other occasions, he has refused to be plastered ‘with: “dog.” Like Oliver Goidsmith’s man from Isling- ton, the only thing the governor puts on is his clothes. We have neyer known, him to put on “dog” or try te he other than what he is—a man that sprang from the soil, as Lincoln did, and reeatis with pride the days he worked long and hard on the farm, A story from Les Angeles set. Florida newspapers off beam regarding Fuller Warren’s attitude toward the kitchen. That story said that housewives in the South, as a rule, steered clear of the kitehen, and from that remark was drawn the presump- tion that Mrs, Warren-to-be would have nothing to do with kitchen affairs in the Executive Mansion in Tallahassee, Fact is, Governor Warren, a few days previously, remarked that Miss Manning isso good acook he was contemplating giving the regular cook in the mansion an extended holiday. As for cooking, this writer, .when he used to cruise through the waters of the Florida Keys, used to pride himself on be- ing able to turn out mouth-watering dishes. And at home he was wont to get some- thing more than a kick out of making pastry that had that lingering ehops- licking taste, and astew ora steam ora roast that was seasoned to the king’s taste. A good cook is the world’s chief treas- ure.

LL EMBLEM OF THE FREE The flag of the United States, with its thirteen stripes and a star for each State, was adopted by the Continenta) Congress on June 14,1777, upon motion of John Adams. Of course, in that day, the flag had thirteen stripes and thirteen stars. There- after,a new stripe and anew star was added when new states were admitted, so that, at ohe time, the flag had fifteen stripes and fifteen stars. However, in 1818, President Monroe signed a_ bill which provided the present design, with the thirteen stripes anda star for each state. The observance of Flag Day was sug- gested by President Woodrow Wilson, in 31916, who proclaimed June 14th as the anniversary to be commemorated. Since that time, the people of the United States have used the day as an occasion to pay homage to the flag and what it represents. It is very important, in connection with the observance of Flag Day, that the people of the country give thought to what the emblem of this nation means to them and to the world. There must be nd blind obeisance tothe flag but rather a rededication of al] Americans to the prin- ciples for whieh the banner stands. Foreign nations, accepting assistance from the United States, become potential enemies, if we do not give all they ask for, or ifwehave done so and demand pay- ment. NEW LABOR LAW SEEMS A PUZZLE Ever since Mr. Truman was elected he and his principal supporters have con- tended that the Taft-Hartley Act would be torn to pieces, with the probability that the old Wagner Act owuld be restored. It looks as though the Republieans will rally enough power in Congress . and carry out the plan of Senator Taft to amend the measure that bears his name in a way that will be satisfactory to the labor unions. This man Taft has the support of practically every Republican in Congress, and besides that, large groups of Demo- erats have come to regard the measure as first class legislation whieh would not be repealed or hacked together so that it would be useful to politicians who want to satisfy President Truman and his backers in the different labor organizations, $n 2 OL LCE A CC CC A A PR I sand tons of scrap the Ruhr left Antwer> recently for Baltimore.
