Inside Look At The U.N. .
By Congressman L. H. FOUNTAIN
WASHINGTON, D. C. . . . .
Every year two Member* of
the Congress are named to the
American Delegation repre
senting the United States at
the annual meeting In New
York of the General Assem
bly of the United Nations.
This year, upon the recom
mendation of the Chairman
of the House Foreign Affairs
Committee, and In turn the
Speaker of the House, the
President nominated me as
one of the two Members for
this Important assignment.
Although honored by this ap
pointment, which I did not
seek and which re<julres Sen
ate confirmation, I will glad
ly accept It but with mixed
emotions. Naturally, any
American should be proud to
represent his country In a
world forum of nations, re
gardless of any reservations
he may have about the forum
and Its accomplishments.
I say "mixed emotions" be
cause I have not been happy
with the performance of the
U. N. over the years. Neither
have you. In fact, I have
been one of Its most severe
critics.
Most of us had great hopes
for the U. N. when It was first
organized In 1945. We were
tired of war, Just as we are
today. We wanted peace.
Unfortunately, our hopes did
not come true. Over the
years the U. N.'s minuses have
seemed to outnumber the
pluses.
Several countries, Including
France and the Soviet Union,
still refuse to pay their share
of the U. N. budget. A number
of both old and new countries
to whom we have contributed
so much ? billions In fact ?
often vote against us.
We have only one vote, but
we foot the bill for almost
one-third of the U. N. budget,
and some of that money goes
Into International programs
over which we have no control.
The Secretary General,
U Thant, has taken sides open
ly with the Communist bloc
on the Vietnam problem.
These are Just a few o. the
many minuses. I could not
be honest, however, as a O.N.
critic, If I did not look at
the other side.
The U. N. Is the only world
wide forum where lines of
communication are kept open
between most countries, In
cluding friend and foe.
J, therefore, welcome this
chance to see U. N. oper
ations from an Inside van
tage point. Then I can judge
for myself how the U. N.
serves the Interests of the
American people and of world
peace.
In addition, I look forward
to the opportunit y of sharing
In the formulation and execu
tion of American policy, and
defending It from attack when
I think It Is right.
Still, I would approach this
work with the utmost serious
ness, holding in reserve In
?very way possible whatever

skepticism I have about the
future ol the U. N. I Intend
to be as honest, as Independ
ent and constructive a critic
as I can.
The Middle East situation
is high on the U. N. agenda
this (all. My experience as
Chairman of the Foreign
Affairs Subcommittee on the
Near East should prove ex
ceedingly useful in this area.
Qncldentally, my burden will
be much heavier for a while,
because I will be traveling
back and forth between Wash
ington and New York and the
District. However, I expect
to be in Washington for all
key and especially highly con
troversial votes.)
We hear more and more
calls for the U. N. to try to
find a solution to the Vietnam
war.
While I have serious quest
ions as to what the U. N.
can or should do toward bring
ing about an honorable settle
ment of that painful and costly
struggle, I certainly Intend
to explore with others the
possibilities. We need to
see If U. N. facilities can,
In American best Interests,
properly and wisely be used
toward that end.
I have no mature opinion
on whether or not It can suc
ceed. But If It refuses to
even make an attempt, It could
well be a new beginning of the
end of the United Nations as
as Instrument of International
policy.
With thousands of Americans
dying in Vietnam, I feel that
If in some small way I can
contribute to abetter and more
peaceful world, Iwanttodoso.
And falling to do so, I would
be derelict In my duty to
you, the Congress and to the
entire country. At least, I
expect to try, and I sincerely
hope that I will have your
support and your prayers.

In most sections of the U.S.A.
the gardens are In a very
unattractive stage. However,
In order to be happier over
next spring and summer's re
sults, now is the time to put
In some har<J work and plan
ing.
Make a compost pit, which
Is very easy and an lmport
ant "must" for Impoverished
soils. Simply dig a pit one
to three feet deep and five
or six feet in diameter, de
pending on the amount of com
post needed. Arrange al
ternating layers of leaves,
weeds, stalks and manure. Add
to this a quart or so of a
good commercial fertilizer.
Moisten and turn frequently.
Allow thorough decomposition
before using.
Start new beds at this time
by Incorporating manure and
bone meal deep In the soil
and allowing the soil to re
main turned until spring. Al
so, put wood ashes on beds
to be dug under next spring.
Perennial borders should be
mulched after the ground Is
frozen or very, very cold.
Some reliable mulches are
buckwheat hulls, leafmold and
peat moss.
In many parts of the coun
try It is, or soon will be,
rose-planting time. Good
plants- must be chosen In the
first place to have rewarding
blooms. Remember, not all
varieties are hardy. Select
the varieties which experts
have found can stand your
climate. Good, strong variet
ies are not often bothered
by Insects or diseases. Japa
nese beetles are not attracted
to red ones quite so much
as to the light colored ones.
