Social Security Expert Speaks Clayton Kppcl, a representative of the Social Security board, on Nov. 6 ad dressed a group of students on the social and economic phase of the work being done by the Federal Security agency. At the enactment of the law in 1937, its functions were divided between old age and survivors insurance, blind pen sions, and health and welfare services. In 1938, unemployment compensation was added to social insurance, and in June of 1946 the veterans administration facilities were taken over by the Social Security Board. The Social Security headquarters in Baltimore Mr. Eppel described as a giant factory to carry on the diverse activities of the service.

Speaker Stresses Role of Reader Cites Objectives of Book Merchandisers An insight into the book-selling world was given to Writers, Inc., on Nov. 6, by James E. Sanford, manager of the mer chandising department of the Chicago Sun and 25-year veteran in the news paper field. After books are written and accepted by a publisher, the speaker explained, they are channeled through the mer chandising department to the bookseller, with the aid of advertising, the publisher, and tiic author. Mr. Sanford reviewed the tangible ideas that may influence a book's popu larity the reputations of the author and publisher, the attractiveness of the title, and the timeliness of the content. He suggested panoramic novels of the Mid- West for novice writers to try, because they have a clear market at present. I i ksellers stock their shelves with literature that sells, the speaker said, and the Catholic reader can be a great influence in determining selling qualities. Sun review racks and photographs of advertising displays were exhibited after the lecture. St Laetare Players Entertain Nurses Dramatic selections from Dark Victory, by Carol Draper, and a play, Blue Beads, by Annamay Byrne, furnished entertainment at an Alumnae meeting at St. Francis School of Nursing, Nov. 6. Following their pattern of activity set earlier in the year, more than 50 Laetare members and pledges are planning a theatre party for Nov. 20. They will see the De Paul production of Twelfth Night. Collegians Honor Cardinal Rita Marie Augustin, junior music major, played Liszt's Rhapsody Num ber 6 at the Chicago Catholic univer sity college night, at which His Em inence, Samuel Cardinal Stritch, D.D.. was honor guest. Students from Barat. De Paul, Loy ola, Rosary, St. Xavier's, and Munde lein presented to His Eminence a spir itual bouquet. College Cisca Meets Here George Drtiry, Ph.D., of the Loyola Philosi phy department, lectured on The Beatitudes and The Christian Life, at the College Cisca meeting held here on Nov. 3. Georgianna McGregor. Mary O'Mal ley, Marcella Mulveil, Mary C. Lang- don, Julia Tuohy, Helen Rosch, Mary Pat Malloy, Jean Halm, and Carol Stutz were on the committee which served tea before Mr. Dairy's lecture. UNews GENERAL ASSEMBLY CONVENES With the dramatic plenary sessions at Flushing Meadows behind them, the delegates of 51 nations have withdrawn to the cenference rooms at Lake Suc cess, New York. There, committees of the General Assembly and their sub committees are preparing for Assembly consideration, the 61 weighty items on the agenda. Questions to be discussed (if not de cided) by the Assembly include the use of the veto, the disposition of man dated territories, trusteeships, budget of the UN, disarmament, and control of atomic weapons. The Headquarters commission is en gaged in a nerve-wracking search for a permanent UN site in the United States, resolved only that anathema is the name of the Westchester-Fairfield area which issued a resounding No, thanks, when it got the nod from last spring's site-pickers. A budget of over 23,000,000.00 was tentatively approved for next year's UN activities. The Political and Security committee is also considering the admission of new members into the UN fold. Ice land, Sweden, and Afghanistan have been approved by the General As sembly. FOREIGN MINISTERS CONFER Whatever progress is being made in the creation of a structure of peace is being made on the thirty-seventh floor of the Waldorf Astoria, where the for eign ministers of the Big Four na tions are brooding over the peace trea ties drafted by the recent Paris con ference. These treaties concern the satellites of Axis Germany Italy. Finland, Hun gary, Rumania, and Bulgaria. The treaties that evolved from the Paris wrangling are inoperative at present, since they are dependent on the ap proval of the Foreign Ministers, and, ultimately, of the Big Four nations. The crucial question of intra-Big Four clashes will come up. The tick lish Trieste problem finds Russia the sole supporter of Tito's claims; Eng land and the United States are not so much supporting Italian claims as op posing Tito. Free Trade on the Danube? Russia says No ; England and the United States shout, Yes Similar seeming deadlocks exist. Observers, however, note a conciliatory spirit; the Russians appear inclined to substitute compro mise for invective. Maybe a few weeks ijiScrajnncji . . . We were going to be clever this sue.
