THE ORACLE | a RR INVITING BUT DANGEROUS The United Nations Commission on Human Rights, in connection with its ef- | to pelieve that people are getting better ten os é fort to guarantee freedom to all peoples, has drawn upa covenant in tentative form, outlawing arbitrary arrest, torture, slavery and forced l\abor, and calls for fair trial for accused persons, freedom of religion, rights of assemblage and assaci- ation. The proposed covenant wil! go to the fifty-nine member governments for study and recommendations. The Commission expects to review its work next «pring and to present the final document to the Gen- eral Assembly in 1950. If this is signed by one nation, it will be legally binding The genera! nature of the items out- jawed and advocated by the covenant writers tends to win support for the ideals stated. Nevertheless, one wonders how the “legally binding” agreement will be en- forced if a nation violated the terms of the covenant. Another difficulty is the methed of determining when and where there are violations. The Bill of Rights of the United States was designed to act as a check upon the aribtrary power of the central govern- ment and the so-called International Bill of Right proposes to guarantee certain freedoms to peoples scattered throughout the world. The question of enforcing obe- dience to the international covenant in- volves a stupendous task and might, in some eventualities, require military con- trol of certain areas We suggest that the people of the United States study very carefully the im- plications of the covenant before suecumb- ing to a somewhat natural desire to spread freedom throughout the earth. Let ux as- sume, for example, that religious freedom is not extended to Mohammedans in Italy. What would the United Nations be able to do to campel the Italian government to ex- tend this fundamental! freedom to the Mo- hammedans?

But the tax burden the Ragiishmen are experiencing stems from the Labor government's dabling in Socialism, Since the end of the secend World War, the United States has leaned Great Britain $3 billion $700 million and has sent Britain hundreds of millions under the Marshal! Plan, Still Great Britain is «sweating and bleeding to try to make both ends meet The practice of Socialiem ix keeping the government's treasury drained, and the outlook for the next fiscal year ix even more dispiriting. That condition in the functioning of the Labor government is the reason why in recent by-elections the Conservatives have seored great gains and threaten to oust the Laborities from power in the 1950 general election. One of the greatest costs in the Labor | government's operation is socialized medi- | cine, a condition that President Truman favers imposing on taxpayers in the Uni- ted States. Under the Labor government's socialization of medicine, all the people of England are entitled to medical, dental. i Righty-five the cost is paid out of general the remainder is raised by The cost has turned out to he several times as much as the Laborites had estimated. Latest word from Washington is that | President Traman’s health insurance plan has no chance of being enacted into law this year, but the fight to put it into ef- fect will be revived in 1960. Finally, the American people stil! squirm under their tax load regardless of how much more Englishmen, proportion- ately, pay than do Americans. The Russians may have decided body fetehed a lantern.
