N Big Three Point of Discussion
As new big three prepare for meeting, one of major discus
sions is expected to concern Russia’s future attitude toward Ja;t
war. Several new sources have been commenting on large stores of
lend-l^ase goods from Pacific ports. (1) that have been shipped to Man-
churia-Siberian ports. (2) Recent U. S. fleet raids in area of Japanese
northernmost outposts attracted particular attention to this area.
Hod's Promise of o Nation.
Lesson for July J9: Genesis 17:1-10.
Memory Verse: Genesis 17:7.
In his selfishness Lot chose a
wicked city and riches, the record
of him ends in the cave to which he
3ed from the ruin of Sodom.
But Abraham retained his wealth
and grew in his knowledge of God.
When he was 99 years old, God ap
peared unto him to renew cove
nant with him and promise him
the fatherhood of many nations.
History shows* the fulfillment of
this promise. Father of the Hebrew
race, Abraham was the. ancestor,
through Ishmael of the Arabs, and
through the posterity of Keturah of
teveral nomadic races, including
ihe Midianites.
Better than the fatherhood of
<» many nations was the promise that
he Lord would be the God of his
people. This promise God has al
ways kept with those who allow
aim to do so. Alas! as was often
true in Israel, God’s people may
thwart his purposes for them.
The promise was accompanied by
a token and sealed with a rite, that
>f circumcision, which was prac-
Hsed by several ancient nations, in
cluding the Egyptians and the •
Vrabs, and is. regarded now as a
vise thing. With the Israelites it
vas given' a spiritual significance
—that of purification. The rites oi
Christians are baptism and the
lojy communion, the one of initi-
ition into the Christian life and the
>ther of continued faith and fel
lowship.
From whatever quarter of the
vorld you trace your blood stream
icknccwledge your debt to Abra
lam as a spiritual father of be
lievers, who has left them a her:-
:age of faith which has survived
he ancient kingdoms that claim**
dm as their founder.

As the Big Three met for their historic conference in
Berlin, the senate moved for passage of important economic
legislation and the United Nations security charter to as
sure U. S. participation in postwar international co-opera
tion to prevent future war.
While President Truman discussed the new Europe with
Prime Minister Churchill and Marshal Stalin, the senate
acted not only to pledge American*^
forces for the preservation of
peace, but also to furnish over 9
billion dollars for the reconstruc
tion of the shattered continent and
the facilitation of foreign trade.
As a result of the seAate delib
erations, the U. S., with its fabu
lous resources and vast industrial
and agricultural potential un
touched by warfare, loomed as the
stabilizing pillar of the new world
the Big Three plotted in the for
mer German capital.
‘ Because the security charter
was dramatically drawn up by dele
gates from 50 United Nations in the
palatial setting of the San Francis
co opera house, senate considera
tion of its ratification has over
shadowed the upper chamber’s de
liberations of the Bretton Woods
monetary agreements and an in
crease in the lending powers of
the Export-Import bank.
Dealing with the exterior and
more comprehensible actions of na
tions, the security charter has
found wider popularity than the
more abstruse financial measures
designed to promote economic
stability, and concerned with such
intricacies as foreign exchange,
long term loans, bills of exchange,
etc. Nevertheless, it has been gen
erally agreed that without eco
nomic equilibrium, the various na
tions again will be thrown into com
mercial conflict, with subsequent
tariff barriers, etc., and the in
evitable sequel of war.
Like the security charter, th'-
Bretton Woods monetary a t.
ments lack perfection, prop' <■ s
admit. But in furnishing tht '
um for the advancement oi
for a nation to trade with or
basis, and for long-range
ness reconstruction, they
promise for the stimulation
nomic revival.
The Bretton Woods me -' :
agreements include the $9.
000 bank -for long term ’.oar
the U. S. contributing $3,175.1.
and the $8,800,000,000 fund for
ing foreign currency availa:
trade, etc., on fair terms wi
U S. putting up $2.750,000.fK
all. the U. S. stake in
two institutions would total n i
$6,000,000,000.
While file so-called bank he
ceived general approval, th-
has been widely criticized, w
ponents declaring that less
nations would draw upon the
rencies of sounder countries
leave their own weaker exc
in the coffers. Ordinarily, the •-
of a nation’s exchange is depe>
upon internal conditions,
currency selling at a discount
small demand, as * when t
stagnates. Under the Br
Woods fund, however, less s-
nations could obtain exchange v.
out markdowns, but opponents say
that this privilege would not en
courage them to get their house m
order to right their currencies, as
would be the case under normal
conditions.
Because nations need money to
settle their trafie balances or pur
chase goods, ability for less stable
countries to obtain exchange at fair
rates would at once serve to stimu
late and stabilize world economic
relations, proponents of the fund
argue, thus contributing to more
settled conditions.
While the objective of the fund is
to allow nations to-secure curren
cies for immediate needs, such as
trade and .services, the purpose of
the bank is to furnish loans for
the economic development of coun
tries to enhance their productive
capacity for internal as well as for
eign trade. Under provisions of the
bank, the institution can lend
money or guarantee private loans.
Despite its general acceptance,
the bank has not been free of
criticism with some experts point
ing out that its approval would
Derm it a flood of foreign securities
■ n the U. S.. backed not only by the
sound currencies of America and
'v]. :i in, but less stable countries as
well.
In addition to the Bretton Woods
monetary agreements, the senate
:v vri to consider increasing the
cmu. g powers of the Export-Im-
;-v..rt bonk from $700,000,000 to $3,-
oG0.C00.G00 to advance funds for the
nut* to and purchase of goods
o-Din foreign countries. According
' : iij inistration leaders, the in-
- ' sed authorizations would be
• f *. ;o promote trade before the
.cnc that the Bretton Woods mone-
arv agreements would come into
effect.
{.me the security charter, the
•lal measures encountered
i para lively easy sailing. Widely
•arced and without effective indi-
il or partisan opposition, the
u'Idus acts demonstrated the
nimous desire of congressmen
make an attempt toward the
t aceful solution of problems
a ring the seeds of war.
