NEW YORK NOTES

Moses, Mayor O'Dwyer's representative
in U.N. negotiations, complai is of the
jumble of industrial plants and dilapid-
ated dwellings in Long Island City,
across the East River from the future
home of the U.N. ' The New York

Oat
vist-fat offends Mr. -Feller; and . its re-
porter asserted that the. view is, a
pleasing one, whether in sunlight or"
when es ening lights glint beautifully
.gross the water. A French deitgate
a few weeks -ago said the skyline of
New- York was out. at all conducive to,
the proper mood nor the reflection
needed for world peace. One might
say that Europe has always had beauti-
ful castles and excellent e settings 'for
its ,peace conferences; and also had
the,, cloak-and-dagger diplomats who
never prevented dreadful *ars. Would
it not be a good thing if we could give
all the United Nations representatives
free' rides along''. the Canada -U.S.
border, with no demonstrations, no
parades, no official welcomes'? They
could see one ' uudefended border and
note the absence of soldiers and forti-
fications. The trip -would do a lot of
good. I know it sounds naive. They
would surely get some impressions and
suggestions for the promotion of peace
which they could not forget and which
would influence their deliberations, ta.
say nothing of adding to that European
cultu-re which onc4 but nctt now held
us in a kind of spell.

IIastings-on-Hudson : We frequently
visit this Hudson River village, nine-

wife—a Goderich girl—and seven-year-
old Betty live there.. Hustings is a

the majestic Palisades dominate in the
background all the outdoors. Like all
small-town wen, I love to explore.

around the corner, that twenty-eight

about that time to have had a name
like "Continental Dragoons ;" or per-
haps they tried to buck up their spirits.

by the colonials, He was taken while
on the• way to West Point to arrange
with renegade Benedict Arnold for
the surrender .of West Point. Admiral
Farragut, whose famous "d the

Mobile Bay, _ in the Civil War, was a
