IIEETIKG OF THE HEAUS 01: 1)lSLEGATIOKS
1.0 ORGASIZE THE COSF1:RI-ISCE,26 APRIL, 1945

.\Ir. F~<.~sER{Sew Zealand) and Air.170i<ui:(riusiralia) drew thc
atteritiori of the Committee to the functions of Technical Committee 4
of Commissiori TE as describeciintlie Sccretnriat document which reads :
"To prepnre and recommcnd to Commission II, and to Corn-
rnissioii III,as necessary, draft provisions on principles and
mechanisni of a system of international trusteeçhip for such
dependent territories as rnay by siihscquent agreement be placed
therciinder".

Thcy pointed out tliat the last words of tliis sentence mighbe takeii
to restrict the scope ofthe discussion oii trusteeshipinthe Conference.
The temporary Chairman stated tliat tliere would be nosuch restriction. DOCUMENTS TRhNSM.IITTED BK SECRETARY-GENERAL 39

The Committee gave tlic chapters a critical first reading in which
certain language questions were noted. Tliese points were gone or7er
with Prime Jïinister Fraser oNew Zealand, Chairman of Conimittee 1114,
who joined the meeting after the evening meeting of Commission II
had approved the work of Cornmittee Ill4. Messrs. Van der Plas
(Ketherlands), Pojrnton (United Kingdom) and Gerig (United States),
in addition to the Secretary of Committee II/4, hIr. Chase, were in
attendance.
Tlie two examinations of the text are liere reported together.

The placement of the "declaration concerning non-self-governing
territories",which was Section A of tlie text of Comrnittee 1I/4 and
wns assigned as Chapter XII, was reviewcd with Mr. Fraser. The

Chairman said that a "declaration" in the middle of the Charter as
a separate chapter bothered him, but he sawno objection to a "declara-
tion" being a section in a chapter. He suggeçted combining itwith
Chapter XII (A), on the trusteeship systern and calling it "provisions
with respect to non-self-governing territories". Air. Fraser thought
the question was one of drafting, but Comrnittee IIjq in dividing its
text into Sections A and f3 laid stress upon the line of demarcation
between the voluntary nature of Section A (Chapter XII) and the
contractual nature of the trusteeship system. The difference was
distinctive and wide. The Committee decided not to try to combine
its two chapters, and reconsidered the title of Chapter XII.

The Cornmittee ienlativelyentitled Chufite7 XII "Policy regarding
~ro~a-self-gover?,isrrilories".

Article 73
The article was accepted as a unilateral declaratioii of Nember
States, each for itself,which stated the principles they recognized in
carrying responsibilities which they had or might have. It was pointed
out by >Ir. Van der Plas that the declaration applied to al1non-self-
governing territories, to those of colonial status on a voluntary basis
and to those of the trust status, among the obligations .assumed for
thea, on a contractual basis.
The Committee called Mr. Fraser's attention ta the phrase "which
have responsibilities", which it believed applied to future acquisition
of responsibility. On Rlr. Railey's suggestion "have or assume" was
considered.
The word "yet" ivas held to apply to any degree of self-government
short of a "full measure", up tawhich the respoiuibility of the alember

exists. Illr. Fraser said it held out anticipation anhope to developing
peoyles.
Mt. Fraser accepted as better drafting a recasting of the last part
of the main paragraph in order to bring out the limitation of the
obligation assumed by the Charter.
The Cornmitteennze?+ded the jirst dariseto "which have or nssisme
respm*sibili&ies". The Comnzittee replaceil"othsu rne»ibersof the wovld cor~llritt~aily"
witlt "the rest of .?Wbzei~rld".

CFIA~J~~ I<11<(A)

Ardicl~ 7j
In the Corninittee's discussion of terms the opiiiion rlevdopecl that
in the phrase "international system of trusteeship" the adjective
properly modified "trusteeship" and in this connexion it \iras iloted
that elsewherc in the test çirnp!y "truçteeship systern" should be
used. hlr. Fouques-Duparc observed that search was being continuecl
for a 17retichword othcr than "lrttcl/e"as the equivalent of "trustee-
ship".

'I'iicCon~lnitteadoptelli?iter.trstiosta"lirilstkcslzi$systerILstaldard
phrase.

Tlre deletioii of the clause "and set up suitable mncliiricry for these
purposcs" was suggested by the Chairman to be uiiriecessiiry since
the next cliapter established ttiat inachinerp. Mr. l'raser approved
the Coinmittee's vie\\?, saying that the clause rvas due to transitional
plirasing. It was deemed clearer to make the "hereaftet" clause a
separate sentence. Mr. Fraser also approved this drafting.
ï'Ae Colnrnitteeracast Article 7j to vend :

"The United ~aGonç shall establish under its authority aii
intcrnntional trustceship system for the admitiistration and
siipcrvision of such territories as may be placed thcreunder by
subserluent individual agreenients. These territoricç are here-
nftcr referred to as trust territories."

rlrticle 76
The esact significanceof the language in subparagrapli b aiid possible
clianges of its order or breaking it up by subdivision were discussed.
In view of the extensive negotiations from which the language
originrttecl,no changes were na de.

It was noted that the omission of "health" was duc to its implied
coverage in the word "social".

The Chairman noted that here was the first useof "interdeyeridence"
in the Charter.
The final clause of subpacngrapli d was discussed aiid its references
esamiried. 'l'he idea of attainment was shifted to that of objectives.
After 3Ir. Fraser approved the redrafting the Committcc decided it
reîerred to subparagraph c, os well as to a and b.

ï'hc Con~miltee adopled as the filtrt.lcl~rofssetbpnragra$lz d "wilhoflt
$rejztdic~ tu the foregoing objectines alrd s?rbjectto the firovisions of
Article 80". The Committee discuçsed at some length the clause "alter in any
manner the rights whatsoevei, of any States or any peoples". The
Committce eliminated the comma. hlessrs. Golunsky and Robertson
inçisted the text had been laboriously negotiated. The Chairman
proposed to read "in any manrier whatsoever", but Mr. Robertson
was confirmed by hlr. Gerig in saying that the intention of Com-
mittee 1x14 was "t~ freeze the present position, bona fide rights, doubtful
rights, rights that are pure figments" after the Charter just as they
ivere before it.Xo change was made.
Xlr. Jebb commented on the rendering of "in or of itçelf" by
"direderne.rroicindirecteine~rlin tlie French.

&Ir.Robertson çuggested beginning with "each trusteesliip agreement
shall include" instead of using the phrase "in each case". There waç
debate on the meaning of "each case", whethcr it signified a single
agreement for each territory so as to cover several cnçes or n rnulti-
lateral agreement. On RIr. Golunçky's suggestion tlint "in each caçe"
really meant ."for each territory", the Committee accepted thc phrase

but changed its position.
Tlze Comt~itlee adopied the order "skdl in each case inclide".

Tlze terln "triut territ" wt~s st~tdnrdized in the artide.

A "State" or "hlember" asan administering authority was considered.
Mr. Gerig said tliat Committee 1114 in its report to Commiçsion II
(Doc. 1115 : 11/4/44 (1) (a)) esplained that cessation of rnembership
did not prevent esercise of the position of administering authority.
The Committee concluded that "Strite" was used in the technical
sense it Iiad adopted.

Article 82
In discussing paragraph 2 hlr. Jebb pointed out tlint the basic
objectives were set forth and not provided for in Article 76 and
questioned how subparagraphs a and d could al1 be applicable to the
people. hlr.Bailey suggested tliey were applicable to the administration
of an area, and the Chairman proposed "shall ayply in each strategic
areri". Jlr. Gerig called attentionto the fact that "apply" is broader
than "applicable". IVith Mr. Fraser these points were gone over in
detail, including a reading of Article 76. Mr. Fraser ernphasized that
Committee 1114 wishes to ençure application of the objectives, so
far as they could be applied, to the people of the strategic areas.

Nr. Poynton said the application in a strategic area of Article 76,
subparagrapli d, was a matter of policy, not of drafting. Mr. Fraser

Article 86

3Ir. Goliinsky raisedn question about the eligibility for redcsignation
of the "specially qualified representatives", pointing out that the
members of oiher bodies were States, biit these were persons and
experts. Alr. Bailey said this case was different, since it \vas hoped
that esperts would bc chosen for the Council, and that they might
be rc-eligihle.
The Clinirman saici that tie thought ttie word "States" sliould be
replaced )>y"blembers" ;tliiswas changed ta "Nembers of the Uriitecl
Xations" on the suggestion of Mr. Golunsky, who said tliat tlie word
might otlierwise menn members of the Truçteesliip Council. Ttie
Chairmari remarked to JIr. Fraser that the Committee was not using
the term "States hIembers".
'Ir.Robertson suggestcd the addition in b of the word "perrnaitent".
but it was pointed out thnt there had beeri considerable debate in

Coinmiltee 1114 on this point ; the permanent inembers of the Security
Coilricil were not mentioncd here, because tliey were tiot members
of tlie Trusteeship Council by virtue of ttieir membership in ttie
Security Council, but because of tlieir wortd-wide interests. Jlr. Kobert-
son siiggested using a "such ....as" construction.
In recasting c >Ir. Fraser suggested "so that" instead of "in order
to". It was brought out that only Members of the United Kations
would be eligible for electiori to the Tniçteeship Cou~icil,which rvould
bc by n two-thirds vote of the General Assembly present and voting.
The lniiguage of the clause was recast in tlie course of the discussion.
The Corltmitteaado$ted the followivg Article 86 :

"The Trusteeship Council shall consist of specially qualified
representatives designnted as follows : (a) one each by the Members
of the United Kations administering trust territories; (b) one
eacli by such of the Jlembers mentioned by name in Article 23
as are not administering trust territories:and (c) one each by
as many other Members of the United Nations elected for three-
year terms by the Gcneral Assembly as may be necesmry to
ensure that the total number of represeiitatives is equnlly divided
between administering and non-administering Members of the
United Xations."

Article 87
Mr. Golunsky noted that this text differefrom thst of Cornmittee 1114
(Doc. WD 374, cOI154, June 18, 1945 )nwhich the General Assembly,

rather than the Trusteeship Council, possesçed the functions in question
and the latter carried out functions "untler the authority of the
Assembly". Mr. Fraser indicated tliat tliat was what Committee III4 DOCUMENTS TRANSMITTED BY SECRETARY-GENERAL 47

"The Trusteeship Council shall, when appropriate, avail itself

1945) and conferred witli Air. Fraser on the textual changes previously
discussed by the Co-ordination Committec.)It Mas felt that it could not be changed since it was the exact wording
of the Comrnittee TI/q,though itliterally meant that the institutions
must already be free if they were to be progressively developed.
Discussion showed a consensus that "to further international peace
and security" implied contributing to their maintenance, and that
introducing the full standardized phrase would here be limitative.
Furtherance of the cause was broader than maintaining a condition.
A desire to restate the point was given up afîer a discussion of the
importance which Cornmittee Il/q attached to the exact wording
to which it had agreed.

AIr.Bailey questioned the accuracy and neatiiess of the reference
defining the exception at the end of subparagraph e. The exact definition
was in Article (77) 75, but the Comrnittee thought it better to refer
to chapters, since the reference of Committee 17/4was to its Section B.

The Co~nmittee debatecl at Iength its substitution of "the rest of

and Poynton cspressed theirunderstanding that Committee III4 meant
"world cornmunity" to iriclude non-members as well as Members,
but to exclude enemy States far the present.The Chairman and Mr. Jebb
çaid "world community" was not the same as the Organization, and
>Ir. Golunsky said in using that phrase one rniist think of the interests
of each, whereas one thought of "the rest of the ïvorld" as a whole.
Air. Poynton said the original phrase was directed at meeting the
criticism that a colonial policy of one State rnight leadto international
friction. After examining "other nations" and similar phrases, tlie
Committee retained "the rest of the world".

Elr. Bailey called the Cornmittee's attention to the esistence of

The estent of authority inherent in the General Assembly and
assigned to the Trusteeship CounciI and the relationship between
their joint functions was discussed at some length in clefining the
source of authority for the specific furictions set forth in this article.
The discussion was relateclto the assignments described in Article (87)
85. It had been agreed not to put thc material in Chapter IV, General
Assembly. It \vas now proposed tu add it to Article (87)Sg as para-
graph 3 beginning it "in particular". Consideration of emphasizing
the position of the General Assembly led to a review of previous debates
and proposais to begiii al1 three paragraph sf Article (87) 55 with
"The General Assembly and the Trusteeship Council", "The General
Asseinbfy and under its authority the Trusteeship Council", or "The
Trusteeship Council shall assist the General Assembly". Tlie project
of cambining this articIe with the general article led only to the change

recorded above in Article (87) 85, paragraph 2. At one time in the
course of the discussion it was thought possible to make two paragraphs
of Article (Sg) 87, the first ascribing functions to the Trusteeship
Council and the second saying that "the General Assembfy may itself
exercise ail these functions and powcrs". The Committee reached
this decision, but upon thc Secretary's reading it on the review of
the changes in the galley, tiie debüte was resurned. Tlie Chnirman
pointed out that Committee 1114 intended to grant joint powers. The
Cornmittee went baclc to the original language of Comrnittee 1114.

CHAPTER XII, XII (A), XII (B)

The Committee had before it Docs. IfrD 411, Col171 ; \f7D 412,
CO/172 nd \$'D 413,CO/r73, which divided into chapters the tests
adopted by Committee 11/4 on Trusteeship as Section A, paragrap1-2,
and Section R, paragraphs 1-15.reported as Docs. \VD 414. C0/174,
and \irD 374, CO/r54, and IVD 393, CO1154 (I),respectively. The
texts were considered by the Co-ordination Committee as set up by
the Secretariat in three chapters broken up into articles as follo:s

Chapter XII, Declaration concerning non-setf-governing territories,
Articles 73-74 (IVD 41 I,coI1.7 ;1)
Chapter XII (A), International trusteeship system, Articles 75-84
(If'D 412, C0/172);

Chapter XII (B),The Trusteeship Council, Articles Sj-g(\VU 413,
coI173). DOCUMENTS TRhNSM.IITTED BK SECRETARY-GENERAL 39

The Committee gave tlic chapters a critical first reading in which
certain language questions were noted. Tliese points were gone or7er
with Prime Jïinister Fraser oNew Zealand, Chairman of Conimittee 1114,
who joined the meeting after the evening meeting of Commission II
had approved the work of Cornmittee Ill4. Messrs. Van der Plas
(Ketherlands), Pojrnton (United Kingdom) and Gerig (United States),
in addition to the Secretary of Committee II/4, hIr. Chase, were in
attendance.
Tlie two examinations of the text are liere reported together.

The placement of the "declaration concerning non-self-governing
territories",which was Section A of tlie text of Comrnittee 1I/4 and
wns assigned as Chapter XII, was reviewcd with Mr. Fraser. The

Chairman said that a "declaration" in the middle of the Charter as
a separate chapter bothered him, but he sawno objection to a "declara-
tion" being a section in a chapter. He suggeçted combining itwith
Chapter XII (A), on the trusteeship systern and calling it "provisions
with respect to non-self-governing territories". Air. Fraser thought
the question was one of drafting, but Comrnittee IIjq in dividing its
text into Sections A and f3 laid stress upon the line of demarcation
between the voluntary nature of Section A (Chapter XII) and the
contractual nature of the trusteeship system. The difference was
distinctive and wide. The Committee decided not to try to combine
its two chapters, and reconsidered the title of Chapter XII.

The Cornmittee ienlativelyentitled Chufite7 XII "Policy regarding
~ro~a-self-gover?,isrrilories".

Article 73
The article was accepted as a unilateral declaratioii of Nember
States, each for itself,which stated the principles they recognized in
carrying responsibilities which they had or might have. It was pointed
out by >Ir. Van der Plas that the declaration applied to al1non-self-
governing territories, to those of colonial status on a voluntary basis
and to those of the trust status, among the obligations .assumed for
thea, on a contractual basis.
The Committee called Mr. Fraser's attention ta the phrase "which
have responsibilities", which it believed applied to future acquisition
of responsibility. On Rlr. Railey's suggestion "have or assume" was
considered.
The word "yet" ivas held to apply to any degree of self-government
short of a "full measure", up tawhich the respoiuibility of the alember

exists. Illr. Fraser said it held out anticipation anhope to developing
peoyles.
Mt. Fraser accepted as better drafting a recasting of the last part
of the main paragraph in order to bring out the limitation of the
obligation assumed by the Charter.
The Cornmitteennze?+ded the jirst dariseto "which have or nssisme
respm*sibili&ies".40 DOCUIIENTS TRANSllITTEU RY SECRETARY-GESERAI.

establishcd by Ihe prese~xt Charder, the well-being of the i?ah(zbitlt?asf
these terrztorics".

&Ir. Robertson referred to the sccond controlling obligation of the
main paragraph, that the Members "accept as a sacred trust" the
promotion of well-being by the stated ends, among which was tranç-
mission of information to the Secretary-General, in subparagraph e.
He suggested saying "and to this end uridertake : (a) to ensure ; (b) to
develop ; (e) to transmit". Air. Fraser was thoroughly of that miiid,
but dared iiot agree because "undertake" wns vigorously opposcd in
Committee 1114. Mr. Poynton and Alr, Gerig said they had ;Lslight

preference for "rigrce". France opposecl "undertake", wiietlici- because
of a different corir~otationin French, Xlr. Fraser did not know. It was
pointed out thnt the "sacred trust" to submit reports was supple-
mentary, but that it could not be made into a separate paragraph
without a change of meaning.
The Conrnzitteeinsertcd a comi?maffer "tveatsne4tt"in s~~bparagrrtph a.

11%the FrencIz textof sz~bparagvaphb "autonomie administrative"
was claangedto "autonomie".

It was noted by the Committee thnt subparagraph c, as reading
out of the mairi paragraph, providecl for furthering internatiorial
peace and sccurity within the system of international peace and
security established by the Charter. ,
In subparagrapli d the use of the term "specialized international
bodies" was analyzed to mean soinething other tlian "specialized
agencies" brought into relationship with the Organization. hfr. Fraser
and Alr, Poynton confirmed thiç view and said bodies of whatever
internatioiial kind which were specially qualified to investigate were
contemplated.

The Commitlee deleted "co-operate...., whmt lind where mppropriufe,
witlz sfiecialized i?zlernatiowl bodies" anri wrote "co-operats .... with
appropriatc intergzational bodies".
