PAGE EIGHT Mqiss Isabelle Davis Describes Trip To United Nations Headquarters On Tour Conducied by B. & P. Clubs Mis Isabelle Davis, in very Vivid and interesting fashion pre- sents below her impressions ai a visit ta the United Nations, and ai the great work which this warld organization is doing. Miss Davis was a delegate fromn the Bawmanvilîe Business and Pro- lessional Wamen's Club on a three-day tour af the U.N. argan- ized by the Ontario Federation ai ]B. & P. Clubs. "Welcome ta this House that is YourS". This was but one ai the mnany formns of greetings extended ta the 72 members ai Ontario Business and Professional Wa- rnen's Clubs wha had the thrilling and stimnulating experience ai at- tending a three-day seminar at the United Nations.. Ail this was Passible because plans w e r e formed for such a trip by a unanimous decision made at the Navember Conference ai B. & P. Clubs af Ontario. It was the hope then that each club would send at least one member ta the U.N. ta iearn the aims and activities ai the UN. and its specialized agen cie s We ail felt very proud to en- ter into International Territor through one ai the seven doors which Canada gave as a large part ai her contribution. They r horizontal nickel bronze panelIs, alternated with plate glass. At thé end ai each panel is a pau representing Peace - Fraternity- Truth _ Justice. These seveni doars through which the public enter are at the North end ai the General Assembly Building and the whole North wall ai the lobby which extends some 75' high, is specially designed glass panels between pillars of marbie. Entering into this unique and startling structure with is lofty ceiling, one can't help but feel that it truiy symbolizes the high ideals that have been set up in the United Nations Charter. Mrs. Esther Hymer is the of- ficiai. observer representing the National and International Fed- erations ai Business and Proies- sional Women's Clubs, and it was she who planned and conducted aur program. We were happiiy surprised and deeply hanoured ta be greeted personally by the Hon. Lester Pearson, who took the time from his busy schedule taca me ta the conference roam, where we were assembled, and welcome us. He was impressed by aur in- terest in coming ta the U.N., nat only ta view it as one ai the sights ta sec whiie in New York, but ta sec it in action and lcarn directiy how it fuinctions. Mr. Pearson spake briefiy ai its accomplish- ments in these seven years since the Charter was signed, and of the plans and Sapes for the fu- ture. Mr. Johnson, head ai the perm- anent Canadian delegation ex- plained the raie ai the Canadian mission ta the U.N. and answered the many questions that were asked.

She told us af the great works the Welfare Division has done and their plans for the future. At the timne ai writmng this, I have just read where Mr. A. N. Magili, Int. Superintendent af the C.N.I.B. has gone ta Cairo ta head the formation af a Rehabilitation Centre The U. N. organizatian which is establishing the unit, put its seal of approval on Canadian National Institute for the Blind. Fram the Dept. ai Information, Mr. William Powell of the Publi- cations Division and Mrs. Dorathy Lewis ai the Radia Division, told ai their Depts. The United Na- tions is one ai the largest publish- ers in the warid publications, falling inta four categaries: (1) Officiai records oi Gen. Assembly and the Councils: Security, Trus- tee, Econamical and Social. These also provide a record for non- governmental orgaliizations such as teachers, students. etc; (2) Studies and reports prepared by secretariat, facts and figures af 200 countries; (3) Dept. Public Information: story in print ai U.N. for people ai the world in 49 languages; 5 official; (4) U.N. Reporter, monthly bulletins, a concise account ai the work ai the U.N. and its related agencies. There are a number ai sales agents in 60 countries seiling U.N. publications. An international staff in the Radia Division broad- casts U.N. news and feature pro- grams 8½ hours a day, in 25 ian- guages, far pick-up by net works in every country ai the world. Contents ai each programme are the same toalal countries and the main content is news. One thing that impressed me mare than the architecture and more too, than the tremendous task that they are ail striving ta accomplish, was the enthusiasm and iaith ai ail whomn we met and listened ta - af their firrm belief that the United Nations is going ta fulfili the aims and purpose set forth in the Charter. Something else that împressed me. toa, was the ages ai the many hundreds that we saw in the Gen. Assembly and variaus other caun- cils and commissions. The vast mai ority were in there mid- forties many were younger and few were aider. Many of~ the members spake English fluently and eiaquently, while I find it difficult ta express my thaughts and opinions in my native ian- guage - the Queen's English. But Faith, Idealism and Enthu- siasm aiofthe representatives ai the member countries is noat enough ta achieve the goal ai the United Nations Charter. It de- pends on our faith and support. Too many ai us have gieaned aur impressions ai the United Nations fromn sensational headlines ai con- fiict and cantroversy and news reel shots of dramatic situations. The important human work being done by the United Nations daes nat make the headlines or even the front page of the newspaper. We expect too much, tao soon. If ail cauntries were politically sta- ble- the U. N. would anly be needed for technical assistance and welfare. Let us ail give this great In- ternational Organization o u r whole-hearted support. Let aur gavernment know through aur rnembers af Parliament aur feel- ings about problems before the U.N., sa that aur delegate may act accardingly. The U.N. can suc- ceed only as much or ns littie as the government ai a country wil permit.

Greenwood Cali Greenwood pastoral charge bas issued a caîl ta Rev. Henry Moore ai Winnipeg. Presbytery approved the caîl and decided ta ask for Mr. Moore's transfer ta the Bay conference. The church at Green- wood is ta be requested ta pay a portion ai Mr. Moore's travelling expenses. Rev. M. A. Bury ai Oshawa, spoke on a new plan which will put the chureh publication, "The Observer" inta the home of every active family in t he United Talks About India Dr. Telford introueie.D Thomas Buchanan, who is home on a year's furlough from bis mission work at Rutlan, ;Central 1 1 ready for accupancy by the sum- India, and is staying in Oshawa. "India, now more than ever, needs the world's sympathy and understanding," declared Dr. Bu- chanan. History wauid pay full tribute ta Britain for ieaving In- dia when she did. The leaders of the new republic had faced Up weil ta a tremendous task and are led by an outstanding man in Pandit Nehru. Mission schoois were often nathing more than groupa dlus- tered in the shade of a tree but from such seeds as that had sprung amazing resuits. Dr. Bu- chanan spoke of one family, de- scended from an aboriginal tribe, which had received its f irst edu- cation in such a school. Now the members of the family were highly-regarded d o c t o r s and nurses. "If we have achieved nothing else in India aur work has been worth it ta praduce that famîly alone," declared Dr. Buchanan. He lamented the fact that while Canadian farmers were wonder- ing what ta do with last year's wheat crop people in the other British commonwealth country of India were starving. Klnwanls Club Conunended The recent radia auction held by the Kiwanis Club of Oshawa ta raise funds for work among under-privileged children wa s cammended by the presbytery. "The club gave something for something and it was a pleasant change ta see something replace the raffles that are usually held," was the comment af a presbytery committee. "We should cammend the Ki- wanis for refraining from methods involving gambling," Said Rev. Dr. George Telford. Church Sold to, K. af C. Sale f thea Northminster Church property, Oshawa, ta the Knights af Columbus was approved by the presbytery. A new Narthmînster has been built at the junction of Simcoe and Rossland and will prabably be mer's end. Details af the. sale were given by Rev. H. A. Meflow, minister af Northminster. Price the fia- ternal organization would pay was $11,000. Five hundred dollars would be spent an new folding chairs, $150 would be paid ta the women who provided the former church with staves and the bal- ance would go ta the new build- ing. Mr. Mellow said a city by-law gaverned the use ta which the fraternal arganization would put the property. It would not b. ai- lowed ta use it for bingoes and things ai that type. "We rather feel we owe the Roman Catholics samething for we have purchased two plots af land frozu them," commented Mr. Mellow.
