We can well be proud of the United Nations and the role the United States has played in establishing this organization. We can justly be proud of the leadership which the United States is giving in its participation in the United Nations and that the General Assembly is backing the President in his suggestions on the peaceful uses of atomic energy. The United Nations programs contained in this bill are small when considered from the point of view of authorizations involved: $2.3 million for the United States contribution to the United Nations Refugee Fund. $10 million for the United Nations Childrens Fund. an authorization of the carryover of the unobligated balance of $45.3 million for the United Nations Relief and Work Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East. and an increase in the United States contribution to the Food and Agriculture Organization from $2 million to $3 million. These are programs which bring much good will and understanding of United States efforts in areas where such understanding is very much needed. These are "grass roots" programs which permeate to the people involved.
