World Conditions Not Too Bad, Says Utah Solon SALT LAKE CITY, Sept. 19 (U.R) As bad off as the world may seem to be now, it is not in as bad shape as it has been after other wars, Utah's senior Senator Elbert D. Thomas told a combined meeting of Salt Lake service clubs here today. He told, the audience of 500, gathered In honor of United Nations Na-tions week, that it Is true enough the world is not in good condition condi-tion but that there is more sta bility because of the idea of the United Nations. "The world has never seen a time before," he said, "when men are talking of hope as much as they are now and talking of helping help-ing one another." He said he believed it was im portant to note that for the first time there is a consciousness of the world as an economic union and that there has been some world-wide thought given to standing by good government. He said that the biggest job facing America at present is to teaching that governments repre sent people and that they are not agencies in themselves.

The river threatened threat-ened to flood Its banks and break Its dike in two places, one of them near the Joban-sen Joban-sen rail line linking the Kan-to Kan-to plain with northern Japan.
