It is known that the XXIst International Conference of the Red Cross voted a resolution (No. XVII) relative to the protection of the victims of non-international armed conflicts and by which it "asks the ICRC to devote special attention to this problem within the framework of the more general studies it has started to develop humanitarian law".

The freedoms expressly stated may be interpreted as expressions of even more fundamental values. The Constitution also protects the traditions & collective conscience of our people. However, it is not enough for a nation to profess to be a democracy. Totalitarian states have made the same profession. A nation must look at the facts to estimate the degree to which it lives by its ideals. We have, on the one hand, our values, &, on the other, a considerable amount of data which show how inadequately the values are fulfilled.

There are enough instances of honest gov'al reporting to warrant the calculated risks of relying on it. We also have private watchdog org's interested in civil liberties, & their efficiency is shown in their record. Watchdogs-like the presidential vetoare built into our pol'al system, & independent observers of our nat'l scene also contribute to raising our sights. However, there still remains a need for a privately financed org for res into civil liberties. HA.
