U.N. FLAG BANNED
Louisiana Move (N 2. Press Assn.— Copyright) BATON ROUGE (Louisiana). May 24. The Lower House of the Louisiana State Legislature yesterday adopted a resolution that would ban the United Nations flag from all public buildings in the state. The resolution will now go to the State Senate. It was sponsored in the 105 - member all - Democrat Lower House by Mr Jesse Knowles, of Calcasieu parish, who termed the U.N an ‘‘anti-Christ organisation.” He said the United Nations was “a one-government antitrust organisation” which was costing the United States billions of dollars “Todaji we have Marines in Thailand. If the United Nations’ interest is in the welfare of the United States, it would convene up there and discuss this problem." he said.
