WMtte Towe Farm Old Neck Road HERTFORD, N. C. We have and offer for sale approxi mately 1,000 bushels of OGDEN SEED SOY BEANS first year from certified stock. We introduced this variety into East ern Carolina in the Spring of 1944. Prac tically every grower is enthusiastic over the yields obtained on all classes of soil. We grew as high as 48 bushels to the acre on one of our farms. Write for descrip tion, growing habits and prices. reserve in both countries and that every effort be made to fairly pre sent: the attitudes of the govern ments concerned. , ' The situation that has developed in Greece, we think, involves no basic cause for misunderstanding. The British commander in that area ap parently adopted the policy, followed by General Eisenhower In Belgium. He used force to maintain law and order to prevent an armed attack up on the existing government. We are quite sure that if American troops had been in Greece, the same action would have been taken. In regard to Italy, the storm seems to arise over Count Sforza, who returned to Italy after twenty years of exile in the United States. In the process of forming a new gov ernment, it appeared likely that Sforza would occupy a prominent po sition and, apparently, the attitude of the British was ascertained. Mr. Churchill explained the situa tion by saying:' "It is quite untrue to say that we had vetoed Sforza's appointment. That right belongs alone to the Italians. All we have to say is that we do not trust the man, nor would we put the slightest con fidence in any government of -which he is a dominant member." Certainly, it was much better for the British government to reveal its distrust of Sforza rather than to be silent and let him dominate any newly-formed Italian government. If this happened and the British con tinued to be without confidence in him, the resulting situation could not, in the long run, be productive of favorable results, either for Italy or the United Nations. Little Practical Importance to This Prolonged Debate The disagreement among the large powers as to whether the large na tions should have veto power on the world organization if it. is accused of aggression should be considered in its practical application to interna tional affairs. The Russian government insists upon its representative continuing to hold a seat and a vote even though action by the group must be unani mous. This, of course, amounts to a veto power as to any resolution or judgment affecting the Soviet. Back of the Soviet insistence, no doubt, is suspicion engendered by the hostility of other -nations in former years. In time, after the new ar rangement begins to work and the world reorders its affairs, the Soviet Coernraent, if convinced by experi ence that there is no league against Russia, may modify its views and give expression to greater confidence in world collaboration. While the principle that no nation should sit in judgment upon its own trial is eminently sound and should be maintained by Great Britain and the United States, there is little practical benefit to be gained at this time. This is apparent if we consider the worst possible contingency that Soviet Russia should be accused of aggression and that' the issue comes before the governing board for judg ment. Let us eliminate the Soviet representative altogether and con sider what action would be most likely. Neither the United States nor Great Britain is apt to favor pro ceedings that would create the pos sibility of an armed clash with the Soviet. Certainly no one imagines that the people of either English speaking country would be willing to mobilize large armies to operate against Russia over an act of aggres sion or a border dispute in Europe. If we change the example and con sider the situation' if a -Latin-American republic preferred charges of ag-' gression against the United States, we would inevitably reach the same result Neither Great Britain nor Soviet Russia, under any conceivable circumstances, would go to war with the United States over any dispute that we might have with some smalt republic on this side of the Atlantic We presume' that the same reason- aion in regard to the Britusa Empire and parts of its far-flung, territories. If this analysis of the practical working of an international organiz ation is sound and the conclusions reached are correct, it makes little difference whether' the, Big, Three continue to hold their seats, with a vote, when matters affecting them are under consideration. , .
