‘The disinal course of the Suez Canal debate’ ‘has
again tumed all eyes toward that institution called the
United Nations.

What i is the UN? it is, officially, an organization
dedicated: to the preservation of peace. Yet it was

fourided in war, and the: very prerequisite of belonging
to it was a willingness to. wage war. The UN repre-.

enemies and whose enemies: ‘have become friends. But.

:soldiers had “God With -Us”" embossed on their ‘belt:

‘Under. such auspices - it is ‘ginal wonder that the =

United Nations ‘has failed in each ‘and: every: purpose

it undertook asc bod “ elaiming to! represent the.

peoples: of the world, ind only those, problems, whose
solution could be brought about through conventional:
” channels, were settled ‘in the UN hall:
