quinine, and a variety of light and

heavy woods for airplanes and

naval vessels are some of the pro

Germany and Italy following the

Pearl Harbor attack.

of freedom from want.

It was concluded at the confer

ence that freedom from want can

not be realized unless other free

doms designated by the charter are

implemented also.
