Ways To
The United States made the
United Nations Charter weak;
it
is now their, job to strengthen it.
That was the opinion expressed
by Dr. Clyde Eagleton, professor
of international law at New York
university, in his speech to the
Model United Nations Conference
on Charter Amendments, Thurs
day night.
The conference, sponsored by!
the Nebraska University Council
on World Affairs, heard Dr. Eagle
ton express his views on "The
United States in the United Na
tions."
The primary reason for mak
ing the charter weak at the
time it was drafted, he said,
was that the U. S. wanted to
retain its supreme soverignty.
The reason the charter must
now be strengthened, he said, is
that "we now find Russia using
the restrictions which we set up
for our own benefit."
Dr. Eagleton cited three ways in
which the power of the UN may
be increased:
1. Interpretation of the charter:
He said that a very lenient inter
pretation is now used, and that
more of the technicalities should
be observed.
2. Usage of the charter: He said
the charter should be used for
more purposes than it now U. He

Public support is necessary to I
enforce the United Nations char-
ter, Dr. Clyde Eagleton said
Thursday. That is the biggest
problem facing the UN today.
Eagleton, a professor or inter
national law at New York uni
versity, commented that the
Model United Nations confer
ence on charter amendments set
up by the Nebraska University
Council on World Affairs is an
excellent way to educate the
public about the way in which
the UN operates. At New York
university, he added, a model
plan of different phases of the
UN Is being set up and If suc
cessful will be added to the
regular curriculum.
One of the weaknesses of the
United Nations charter, s a i d
Eagleton, is that both the Secur-
liy council anu oenerai seniuiy
lege senior, was unanimously
elected permanent president.
Ti the period for consideration
of recommendations, the first pro
posals were offered by Marvin

freshman representing Austrialia.
Friedman's proposals included
the framing of a bill of rights for
nations: the affirmative vote of
only three of the permanent mem
bers to be sufficient for passage
of a measure: that in the future a
new member may be admitted to
the United Nations upon favorable
vote by two-thirds of the General
Assembly; that the ratification of
amendments to the Charter be ef
fected by two-thirds vote of the
member nations, thus excluding
the provision that all five perma-

In a case such as the dfspute be
should be some means of impos

fluence could come through giv
ing compulsory jurisdiction to the
courts, he said.
This could be done without
amendment, he said. If the
United States world accept it,
the other nations would follow
it, too, with the exception of
Russia. Without excluding her
from the UN, Russia should be
left out of everything for
awhile.
In reference to the international
situation, Eagleton said, "I believe
we will go on for years and years

A proposal was made by Swe

Arts and Science!, sophomore,
that the admission of any peace
loving state, eligible for mem
bership In the UN, be effected
solely by a two-thirds decision
of the General Assembly.

Truman also added that
