UN Deeds And Finances At 25th Anniversary Session
The United Nations General Assembly closed its 25th anniversary session with two major achievements. A declaration declared sea bed wealth as humanity’s heritage and a 10 year program urged rich nations to aid poorer nations. Secretary General U Thant warned the UN faces insolvency without voluntary contributions, yet the body delivers returns on a small investment and advances economic and social goals. The piece urges broad support for Thant’s appeal and defends the UN as mankind’s best hope for world stability.
