Take Time Gut for This
We cannot urge too strongly that all who read this page take
advantage of the opportunity for influenza immunization being
offered on the campus today and tomorrow as a public service
by the University Health Service.
Plans have been made to give injections of influenza vaccine
to all students desiring to protect themselves from one of the
most dreaded diseases prevalent in the country at the present
time. No charge will be made for the service. No one will
force you to take the vaccine. Nothing will happen if you don't
subject yourself to it today or tomorrow except that your
chances of catching influenza will be higher than otherwise.
Therefore, take a few minutes of your time and reap the
benefits of the immunization program. The personnel giving
the shots have gone out of their way to make it possible. -Of
course, the shots will have slight after-effects on some of those
who take them, but a sore arm and a slight headache is still a
far cry from a sweeping influenza epidemic.
Remember, it's for your own good. It can help avoid possible
tragedy. Bolster your resistance by taking the vaccine. Do it
now. You won't regret it later.
About The Finchley Display
That the opinions expressed by columnists on this page are
their own and not necessarily those of THE DAILY TAR HEEL
is expressed clearly in the masthead below.
There is logic in having the paper run oh such a principle.
Some of the best writers, whether they be national or local,
thrive on differences of opinion. It certainly would be expect
ing too much to expect the men on this campus to agree in all
of their thinking. We have almost decided that no two people
at Carolina do think alike.
However, occasionally something creeps into a column that
creates a mild furore. Such is apparently the case in the col
umn on the Finchley clothing display that was cancelled this
week. - .v
Although most of the facts in the story are basically true, we
feel that a few comments are necessary on some of the state
ments used. In saying that the monopolistic control of the
Chapel Hill merchants was strengthened, the writer was gen
eralizing slightly, for this newspaper will be the first to admit
that the majority of the merchants in Chapel Hill are coopera
tive and only too willing to do what they can to help the stu
dents. Of course, a few exist for themsleves alone and would
not go out of their way to help anyone, but there are always
some people like that in any crowd.
Upon being told by a South building representative that the
show could not be staged in Graham Memorial, Miss Rice did
.not tell him that the show would go on. However, she did carry
out her efforts to bring the clothing representative to Chapel
Hill and Mr. Kutz, owner of the Varsity Shop, agreed to stage
the display in his store.
The whole incident is unnecessarily unfortunate in our opin
ion, and could have been avoided, but we do not blame all the
merchants in Chapel Hill for what happened.

Washington. Reports that a sinaH number of atomic bombs had been sent
to Northern England for stockpiling brought a flood of diplomatic denials
from high U. S. sources. It is significant, however, that the British said little.
Instead, they sent a very interesting figure to the United States. He is
Brigadier JMenzie, top intelligence man of all England. Menzie is head of
M5 (British Military Intelligence), M6 (British Military-Political Intelli
gence) and M12 (British Russian Intelligence). Reason for his hurried trip
to the United States was to plug leaks.

ada, the third partner, supplied the
uranium, it would seem that they
were entitled to a share in the final
result. Nevertheless, the decision to
send a small quantity of A-bombs to
England was so closely guarded that
it was known only to about six top
men in the USA. In that connection it
is significant that very few civilians,
even in the Cabinet, know much of
the whereabouts or numbers of the
A-bomb. This was illustrated during
a Cabinet session shortly before Har
old Ickes retired as Secretary of the
Interior.
Ickes, who has a habit of speak
ing his own mind, said he under
stood that no civilian in the United
States knew where the A-bombs
were kept. All the bombs, he said,
were in the hands of the military,
a situation which he described as
dangerous in that it might set the
stage whereby a group of brass
hats could take over the country
merely by issuing an ultimatum.
Secretary of the Navy Forrestal
took exception to this, whereupon Ic
kes asked:
"Do you know where the A-bombs
are kept?"
Forrestal admitted that he didn't.
"Do you know where the A-bombs
are kept?" .continued Ickes, turning
to Secretary Patterson, the head of
the Army.
Patterson replied that he did not
know.
Ickes then asked President Truman
if he knew where the atomic bombs
were located. Again the answer was
in the negative.

nist, few military men have civilian

By Jimmy Wallace
The opening session of the International Conference of Students in Prague
on August 18, was attended by trumpet fanfare, dignitaries, including the welfarfi morp at wTt than General
Lord Mayor of Prague, and the Prime Minister of Czechoslovakia, and a Eisenhower and Admiral Nimitz, pres
hapless representative of the New York Times who applauded amid rever- t jea(iers 0f the Armv and Navy
entiai silence ioiiowmg tne playing ol the UzecnoslovaK national antnem. forces. Not all the Army-Navy brass
lms session was not in any way connected with business. It was lor the
public to consume, and it enabled many people to make speeches, saying
little of importance.
A group of twelve white-clad boys :
A United Peace
Yesterday President Truman reaffirmed the faith of the
United States in the United Nations and pledged all its support
to the preservation of peace through the United Nations.
Speaking as host to the delegates, the President sayi that the
world is crying for a just and durable peace and challenged the
delegates to prepare such a peace.
Admitting that there are differences between the East and
the West, the President made clear, for the world, to hear, our
position squarely on the charter of the United Nations. Any
examination of our foreign policy must be made in the light of
the charter.
Fifty-one nations of the world are full-pledged members of
the UN and through them we can get a just and durable peace.

and girls from a factory somewhere
in CSR (abbreviation for Czechoslo
1 V 1
vaKia) somenow got sandwiched m
the program, and there was much
hollering on their part, all of which
was in Czech. One of the girls would
screech something, and then jthe oth
ers would answer, something in the
order of a hopped-up responsive read
ing. There recurred frequently, how
ever, the word "Fascism," which ap
pears to be the same in any language,
and I gathered from talking to Czechs
later that the gist of the peroration
was a condemnation of Fascism. The
condemnatory passions certainly were
there. I feel that if the scene could
be transported to a New York stage
it would break all records for a com
edy hit. A regrettable commentary, I
know, but not one founded in either
Fascism or cynicism.
The program of the American
Delegation at Prague, was very
elaborate, and was in fact the most
comprehensive and detailed pro
gram of any delegation. A resume
of that program follows:
A. International Security: Full sup
port to the UN, greater cooperation
with Russia, condemnation of unilat
eral action, and progressive limita
tion, and eventual elimination of the
veto power in the UN Security Coun
cil.
Atomic Enegry: Immediate cessa
tion of manufacture of atomic wea
pons; the establishment of an interna
tional atomic energy commission with
in the framework of the UN for the
full development of atomic energy for
peaceful purposes; the powers and
duties of this commission would be to
!. collect and destroy all atomic
weapons,
2. acquire information on manu
facture of same,
3. inspect all research and produc
tion installations in all nations,
4. own and control all supplies of
fissionable materials in all nations.
There should be no veto power with
in the commission. There should be
no veto power in the Security Coun
cil over acts of the commission with
in the scone of authority of the com
mission (which scope is the utiliza
tion of atomic energy for peaceful
purposes.)
Fascism: Defined as: The usur
pation or attainment of political
and economic privileges by the few,
the maintenance of such by force
or intimidation, and the suppres
sion of the legitimate exercise of
the people's will and civil rights by
use of political power. The delega
tion urged the immediate sever
ance of diplomatic relations with
and the institution of economic san
ctions against Franco Spain by all
members of the UN; favoring the
giving of encouragement and aid
to the Spanish people for the es
tablishment of a representative gov
ernment in Spain.
The Future: To work for a limited
world federal government, to be de
veloped through the UN.
B. Citizenship and Democracy. The
delegation set forth its belief in the
fundamental equality of all men, in
freedom of movement, in free expres
sion of minority opinion, in a normal
family life. The delegation would
work for the following: a) Freedom
of access of students to all sources
of knowledge, freedom of dissemina
tion of all information, freedom of
international student travel and ex
change extension of opportunities for
education to all without discrimina
tion because of race, religion, national
origin, sex, political belief, economic
or social status. The delegation favor
ed the lowering of the voting age
to 18 years, and the adoption of some
living language to be taught in all
universities and to be used as an in
ternational language.
C. Economic Security.
t The delegation favored raising the
standards of living through such pro
posals as:
1) The right of labor to organize
without government control,
2) The enactment of broad social
security legislation,
3) The encouragement of coopera
tives; 4) The organization of consumer
interests,
5) Government ' action to ensure
high levels of employment,
6) Prohibition of use of forced ci
vilian labor.

Comrade Molotov has told advisers
that he favors admitting the press to

He says the newspapers get part of
the story anyway and they might
just as well get it all at the very
start. . . .Herbert Hoover, who con
fers frequently with Tom Dewey,
takes credit for advising him to in
crease President Truman's 100,000
refugee figure on Jewish migration.
"After all," remarked Hoover to a
friend, "Dewey's not President, he's
only Governor of New York, and the
statement could ,win him a few thou
sand votes." He was referring to the
fact that Truman proposed the ad
mission of 100,000 refugees into Pal
estine, while Dewey followed him two
nights later with a proposal that sev
eral hundred thousand be admitted.
.Though we only recently talked
of a credit to Russia, the State De
partment soon will do the reverse.
It will present Russia with a lend
lease bill of four billion dollars in
cash. This is about three and a half
billions more than we charged the
British. We scaled British lend-lease
to $650,000,000 and then loaned them
around three billions.
Ban on Beer
Leaves Writer
Cold--and Dry
By Eddie Allen
Distilling processes being as com
plicated as they are, it is somewhat
doubtful that the recently-enacted
Sunday Beer ban in Chapel Hill will
reactivate that old implement of the
frustrated and thirsty the bathtub.
However, the quenching of the Sab
bath hop supply, on the surface would
seem to fulfill about as useful a func
tion as the 18th amendment, the re
peal of which came when the nation's
solons found that speakeasies were
beginning to outnumber grocery
stores.
It was only after long debate
and an evenly divided vote that our
little village's fathers left life or
death of the beer ban up to one man
Mayor Bob Madrst Thus put on
the spot, Hizzoner clicked his teeth
in cogitation for a few weeks and
then voted "Nay." By that hesitant
ballot Coca-Cola for one niffht a
week will again regain its lost lead
in popularity, and those who would
wet their tonsils on the Seventh
Day will search in vain for some
benign brew-laden Gunga Din.
Now it's not quite clear why beer,
which flows freely six days weekly,
should become suddenly forbidden on
the other. And why thirst being as
capricious an urge as any a person
shouldn't be allowed to risk personal
damnation and imbibe on Sunday, just
so long as he doesn't disrupt the gen
eral peace in so doing, remains a bit
vague.
Mayor Madry, in his decision, quite
truthfully pointed out that, since the
Sunday ban was observed in Orange
and Durham counties, the throwing
open of the swinging doors here might
cause "undesirable" Ale-Arabs to
come flocking to our now-dry oasis.
That may be true, but in the past,
Durhamites who have shown a
marked disdain at even walking a
mile for a Chesterfield certainly
have not driven 12 for a Budweiser
in overwhelming numbers. Even
when beer was available here on
Sunday, the local taverns have been
populated mainly by hometown suds
fans, and not too many of them.
It is an age-old precept that one
begins to get into deep and uncertain
water when personal morals come up
for legislation. The red-faced Prohi
bition repeal proved that on a nation
wide scale.
Now it's doubtful that any deep
civic injury or abuse will come from
the beer ban, and no ."Beer-leggers"
such as Damon Runyon's immortal
Big False Face are likely to make
living. But in the final analysis,
neither would any fearsome civic in
jury follow an open Sunday no beer.
That would seem to be the crux of
the entire matter
