In the event of change in the Usable Capacity of the Costilla Reservoir, the Costilla Reservoir complement of the Costilla Reservoir System Safe Yield shall be divided between Colorado and New Mexico in accordance with the percentages given in Columns 4 and 6, respectively, of the above table.
Each State may draw from the Reservoir in accordance with the allocations made herein, up to its proportion of the Costilla Reservoir complement of the Costilla Reservoir System Safe Yield and its proportion of Temporary Storage and no more. Colorado may call for the delivery of its share thereof at any of the specified Points of Interstate Delivery.
Deliveries of water from Costilla Reservoir to the Canyon Mouth shall be adjusted for transmission losses, if any, between the two points. Deliveries to Colorado at the Boundary shall be further adjusted for transmission losses from the Canyon Mouth to the respective Points of Interstate Delivery.
Water stored in Costilla Reservoir and not released during the current season shall not be held over to the credit of either State but shall be apportioned when the safe yield is subsequently determined.

The Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, and
The Prime Minister of Canada.
We have considered the question of the disclosure of detailed information concerning the practical industrial application of atomic energy. The military exploitation of atomic energy depends, in large part, upon the same methods and processes as would be required for industrial uses.
We are not convinced that the spreading of the specialized information regarding the practical application of atomic energy, before it is possible to devise effective, reciprocal, and enforceable safeguards acceptable to all nations, would contribute to a constructive solution of the problem of the atomic bomb. On the contrary we think it might have the opposite effect. We are, however, prepared to share, on a reciprocal basis with others of the United Nations, detailed information concerning the practical industrial application of atomic energy just as soon as effective enforceable safeguards against its use for destructive purposes can be devised.
In order to attain the most effective means of entirely eliminating the use of atomic energy for destructive purposes and promoting its widest use for industrial and humanitarian purposes, we are of the opinion that at the earliest practicable date a Commission should be set up under the United Nations Organization to prepare recommendations for submission to the Organization.
The Commission should be instructed to proceed with the utmost dispatch and should be authorized to submit recommendations from time to time dealing with separate phases of its work.
In particular the Commission should make specific proposals:

United Kingdom Inventories. For the purposes of this Agreement, the total petroleum inventories in the United Kingdom as of September 2, 1945 shall be deemed to include petroleum stocks in the United Kingdom on that date, stocks then in transit to the United Kingdom, and stocks then within the possession of the British Armed Forces in Northwest Europe. These stocks have been divided into the United Kingdom share, attributable to contributions to such stocks by the Government of the United Kingdom, and the United States lend-lease share, attributable to contributions of the Government of the United States to such stocks under lend-lease. Such United States lend-lease share is equivalent to the sum of (a) the quantities earmarked under previous arrangements as the United States military share, and (b) other United States lend-lease stocks.
The agreed amount of the United States lend-lease share is shown in Annex II. Post, p. 1554.

The principles of general commercial policy recently discussed between the two Governments relate to petroleum as to any other commodity.
The two Governments recognize the importance of early agreement on petroleum questions of mutual interest and, pending the establishment of formal intergovernmental machinery to deal specifically with petroleum questions, will consult together as necessary on such questions.

Transactions left for settlement outside the offsetting arrangement.
Iceland. To carry out previously made arrangements, in dividing between the two Governments the proceeds from sales of petroleum products shipped to Iceland via the United Kingdom, the Government of the United States shall be credited with the proceeds of sales of such petroleum products made during the period from January 1, 1944 to October 31, 1944, inclusive. If, however, the proceeds from such sales should exceed the landed cost of such products in the United Kingdom, any excess shall be credited to the Government of the United Kingdom, which has met under reciprocal aid the expenses incurred by it in respect of such petroleum products for handling charges in the United Kingdom, freight from the United Kingdom to Iceland, leakage en route and handling charges in Iceland.
In the case of sales of such petroleum products made during the period from November 1, 1944 to September 1, 1945, inclusive, the Government of the United States shall be credited with the landed cost in the United Kingdom of the petroleum products sold and the Government of the United Kingdom will be credited with any proceeds over and above such cost.
The resultant net balance of accounts is known to be in favor of the Government of the United States, although the exact amount is subject to future determination. This balance shall be settled by cash payment to the Government of the United States.

Department of State,
Washington, D. C.
April 17, 1945.
I acknowledge receipt of your note of today’s date concerning the financing by cash payments as from February 15, 1944 of all forms of mutual aid provided by either the Government of the Union of South Africa or of the United States to the other.
I am glad to advise you that the Government of the United States shares the understanding of the Government of the Union of South Africa as expressed in that note and in the Annex thereto. I agree that your note and this reply thereto should be regarded as placing on record the understanding of our two Governments in this matter.
Accept, Sir, the renewed assurances of my high consideration.
Chargé d’Affaires ad interim of
the Union of South Africa.
[T. I. A. S. 1512]
April 17, 1945.
I set forth below my understanding of the conclusions reached in conversations which have taken place from time to time during the past year between representatives of the Government of the United States and the Government of the Union of South Africa with regard to post-war economic settlements.
Our two Governments are engaged in a cooperative undertaking, together with every other nation or people of like mind, to the end of laying the bases of a just and enduring world peace securing order under law to themselves and all nations. They are in agreement that post-war settlements must be such as to promote mutually advantageous economic relations between them and the betterment of world-wide economic relations.
To that end the Governments of the United States of America and of the Union of South Africa are prepared to cooperate in formulating a program of agreed action, open to participation by all other countries of like mind, directed to the expansion, by appropriate international and domestic measures, of production, employment, and the exchange and consumption of goods, which are the material foundations of the liberty and welfare of all peoples; to the elimination of all forms of discriminatory treatment in international commerce, and to the reduction of tariffs and other trade barriers; and, in general, to the attainment of all the economic objectives set forth in the Joint Declaration made on August 14, 1941 by the President of the United States
Our Governments have in large measure similar interests in post-war international economic policy. They undertake to enter at an early convenient date into conversations between themselves and with representatives of other United Nations with a view to determining, in the light of governing economic conditions, the best means of attaining the above-stated objectives by agreed action on the part of our two Governments and other like-minded Governments.
If the Government of the Union of South Africa concurs in the foregoing statement of conclusions, I would suggest that the present note and your reply to that effect should be regarded as placing on record the understanding of our two Governments in this matter.
Accept, Sir, the renewed assurances of my high consideration.
Chargé d’Affaires ad interim of
the Union of South Africa.
I have the honour to refer to your note of today’s date setting forth your understanding of the conclusions reached in conversations between representatives of the Government of the Union of South Africa and the Government of the United States with regard to post-war economic settlements. That understanding is as follows:
Our two Governments are prepared to cooperate in formulating a program of agreed action, open to participation by all other countries of like mind, directed to the expansion, by appropriate international and domestic measures, of production, employment, and the exchange and consumption of goods, which are the material foundations of the liberty and welfare of all peoples; to the elimination of all forms of discriminatory treatment in international commerce, and to the reduction of tariffs and other trade barriers; and, in general, to the attainment of all the economic objectives set forth in the Joint Declaration
Our Governments have in large measure similar interests in post-war international economic policy. They undertake to enter at an early convenient date into conversations between themselves and with representatives of other United Nations with a view to determining, in the light of governing economic conditions, the best means of attaining the above-stated objectives by agreed action on the part of our two Governments and other like-minded Governments.
I am instructed to inform you that the Government of the Union of South Africa concurs in the foregoing statement of conclusions and agrees to your suggestion that your note of today’s date, and this reply should be regarded as placing on record the understanding of our two Governments in this matter.
Accept, Sir, the renewed assurances of my highest consideration.

Pursuant to instructions from the Joint Chiefs of Staff, I hereby execute this instrument in behalf of the United States of America.
[T. I. A. S. 1515]

considering
– that the possibilities of commercial aviation as a means of transport have greatly increased,
– that it is desirable to organize the international air services in a safe and orderly manner and to further as much as possible the development of international cooperation in this field, and
– that the Agreements hitherto contracted between the two governments with respect to the operation of air services should be replaced by a more general agreement in harmony with the new conditions of air transport, have appointed their representatives, who, duly authorized, have agreed upon the following:

In the event that such agreement is reached each Contracting Party will use its best efforts to cause such agreed rate to be put into effect by its air carrier or carriers.

En attendant l’aboutissement de ces négociations et sans préjudice du résultat de celles-ci, le Gouvernement belge est également désireux de ne pas entraver l’établissement de services de transports aériens actuellement reconnus comme possibles et désirables.
En conséquence, il serait d’accord pour mettre provisoirement en vigueur ce projet, qui est d’ailleurs conforme dans ses neuf articles, à la Résolution VIII adoptée à la Conférence de Chicago, en vue de faciliter le prompt établissement des services d’aviation civile désignés ci-après:
Les organismes exploitants des Etats-Unis d’Amérique autorisés en vertu du présent arrangement auront le droit de survol et d’atterrissage non commercial sur le territoire belge, ainsi que le droit d’embarquer et de débarquer à Bruxelles, en trafic international, des passagers, de la poste et des marchandises sur l’itinéraire suivant:
Des Etats-Unis par l’Atlantique Nord à Londres, Bruxelles et au-delà vers l’Inde par des points intermédiaires en Europe Centrale et le Proche Orient, dans les deux directions.
Les organismes exploitants de Belgique autorisés en vertu du présent arrangement auront le droit de survol et d’atterrissage non commercial sur le territoire des Etats-Unis d’Amérique ainsi que le droit d’embarquer et de débarquer à New-York, en trafic international, des passagers, de la poste et des marchandises sur l’itinéraire suivant;
de Belgique à New-York via des points intermédiaires de l’Atlantique Nord, dans les deux directions.
Bien qu’il soit reconnu que les conditions d’exploitation puissent nécessiter le changement de matériel aux escales intermédiaires, il est entendu qu’il ne pourra être usé de ce droit en vue de changer le caractère de long courrier des services spécifiés.
Avant de pouvoir entreprendre les opérations visées dans le présent arrangement, les organismes exploitants désignés par chaque Gouvernement pour exploiter les lignes spécifiées ci-dessus, pourront être
En attendant la conclusion d’un accord bilatéral de trafic aérien, le présent arrangement provisoire aura une durée de validité initiale de trois mois à dater du 1er. février 1946. A l’expiration de cette période, il restera en vigueur par tacite reconduction sauf dénonciation par l’un des deux Gouvernements en tout temps avec préavis d’un mois.
Veuillez agréer, Monsieur le Chargé d’Affaires, l’assurance de ma considération la plus distinguée.

Chargé d’Affaires a.i. des Etats-Unis d’Amérique,

I have the honor to acknowledge receipt of Your Excellency’s note of February 1, 1946, reading as follows:
“I have the honor to acknowledge receipt of Note no. 371, of October 25, 1945, by which you were good enough to propose putting into effect on a provisional basis the draft agreement for establishment of civil aviation lines, which is at present the subject of negotiations between our two Governments.
“The Belgian Government likewise is desirous of not hindering the establishment of air transport services which are actually considered possible and desirable pending conclusion of these negotiations and without prejudicing the results thereof.
“In consequence, it would agree to put this draft, which moreover conforms in its nine articles to Resolution VIII adopted by the Chicago Conference, into force provisionally, in order to facilitate the prompt establishment of the following civil air services:
Airline operators of the United States of America authorized under this agreement are accorded rights of transit and non-traffic stop in the territory of Belgium, as well as the right to pick up and discharge international traffic in passengers, cargo and mail at Brussels, on the following route:
The United States over the North Atlantic to London, Brussels, and thence to India via intermediate points in Central Europe and the Near East; in both directions.
Belgium via intermediate points over the North Atlantic to New York; in both directions.
“While it is recognized that operating conditions may necessitate the changing of equipment at intermediary stops, it is understood that this right cannot be availed of for the purpose of changing the lo
“The airline operators designated by each Government to operate the services described above may be required to qualify before the competent aeronautical authorities of the other government under the regulations and requirements normally applied by these authorities, before being permitted to engage in the operations contemplated by this agreement.
“Pending the conclusion of a formal bilateral air transport agreement, this interim arrangement will be valid for an initial period of three months beginning February 1, 1946, renewable automatically thereafter but subject to denunciation on one month’s notice by wither Government at any time after the expiration of the initial period.”
I take pleasure in informing Your Excellency that my Government agrees to the foregoing.
Please accept, Excellency, the renewed assurances of my highest consideration.

The German armed forces on land, at sea and in the air have been completely defeated and have surrendered unconditionally and Germany, which bears responsibility for the war, is no longer capable of resisting the will of the victorious Powers. The unconditional surrender of Germany has thereby been effected, and Germany has become subject to such requirements as may now or here-after be imposed upon her.
There is no central Government or authority in Germany capable of accepting responsibility for the maintenance of order, the administration of the country and compliance with the requirements of the victorious Powers.
It is in these circumstances necessary, without prejudice to any subsequent decisions that maybe taken respecting Germany, to make provision for the cessation of any further hostilities on the part of the German armed forces, for the maintenance of order in Germany and for the administration of the country, and to announce the immediate requirements with which Germany must comply.
The Representatives of the Supreme Commands of the United States of America, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, the United Kingdom and the French Republic, hereinafter called the “Allied Representatives,” acting by authority of their respective Governments and in the interests of the United Nations, accordingly make the following Declaration:—
The Governments of the United States of America, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics and the United Kingdom, and the Provisional Government of the French Republic, hereby assume supreme authority with respect to Germany, including all the powers possessed by the German Government, the High Command and any state, municipal, or local government or authority. The assumption, for the purposes stated above, of the said authority and powers does not effect the annexation of Germany.
The Governments of the United States of America, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics and the United Kingdom, and the Provisional Government of
In virtue of the supreme authority and powers thus assumed by the four Governments, the Allied Representatives announce the following requirements arising from the complete defeat and unconditional surrender of Germany with which Germany must comply:—

El 30 de Julio en curso, vence el Acuerdo Adicional de Comercio a que se llegó por cambio de Notas efectuado con igual fecha en el año pasado, por el cual se amplió el Convenio Provisional subscrito entre nuestros Gobiernos el 6 de Enero de 1938.–
A fin de evitar la falta de un instrumento que regule las relaciones comerciales entre Chile y los Estados Unidos de América, y mientras se llega a un Convenio Comercial más amplio, mi Gobierno está dispuesto a continuar extendiendo a los productos norteamericanos que se especifican en las Listas anexas a mi Nota N° 4024, de 30 de Julio del año último, el mismo tratamiento que en ella se indica.–
La presente Nota y la respuesta de Vuestra Excelencia expresando la aceptación de Vuestro Gobierno sobre la materia, constituirán un nuevo Acuerdo entre ambos países, entendiéndose que el plazo de su validez será de un año a contar desde el 31 de Julio en curso, a menos que sea denunciado por cualquiera de las Altas Partes Contratantes por una notificación escrita dada con treinta días de anticipación, o que sea reemplazado por un Acuerdo Comercial más amplio.–
El Gobierno de Chile se vale de esta oportunidad para reiterar al de Vuestra Excelencia sus deseos de activar, en lo posible, las negociaciones actuales para llegar a la pronta concertación de un Tratado de Amistad, Comercio y Navegación más amplio y completo, que sirva en forma más eficiente al interés recíproco de ambos países.–
Aprovecho esta oportunidad para renovar a Vuestra Excelencia las seguridades de mi más alta y distinguida consideración.–

Santiago, July 23, 1946.
On the 30th of the current month, there will expire the Supplementary Trade Agreement effected last year by an exchange of notes Post, p. 1715.
In order to avoid the lack of an instrument regulating the commercial relations between Chile and the United States of America, and pending conclusion of a more ample trade agreement, my Government is prepared to continue extending to the American products Post, p. 1715.
This note and Your Excellency’s reply stating your Government’s acceptance of its substance, will constitute a new agreement between our two countries, it being understood that the duration of its validity will be one year beginning with the 31st of the current month, unless it is denounced by either of the High Contracting Parties by written notice given thirty days in advance, or is replaced by a broader trade agreement.
The Chilean Government avails itself of this opportunity to repeat its desire to hasten the present negotiations in so far as possible, in order that agreement may be reached soon on a broader and more complete treaty of friendship, commerce and navigation which will serve more effectively the mutual interests of both countries.
I avail myself of this opportunity to renew to Your Excellency the assurances of my highest and most distinguished consideration.

I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of Your Excellency’s note of July 23, 1946 containing a proposal by the Government of the Republic of Chile to concede to the commerce of the United States of America, without compensation, reductions in the Chilean import duties on certain products as set forth in the enclosure with Your Infra.
I have the honor to assure Your Excellency that the Government of the United States of America greatly appreciates the interest of the Chilean Government in adopting measures to expand and to liberalize trade in accordance with the economic objectives of the Atlantic Charter and of the Inter-American Conference on Problems
I have noted with satisfaction the desire expressed by Your Excellency’s Government to expedite, in so far as may be possible, the present negotiations for a Treaty of Friendship, Commerce and Navigation and I take this opportunity to inform Your Excellency that my Government is likewise desirous of proceeding with these negotiations.
Accept, Excellency, the renewed assurances of my highest and most distinguished consideration.

El Gobierno de la República de Chile consecuente con los principios sustentados por las Naciones Unidas y de acuerdo con los objetivos económicos de la Carta del Atlántico y especialmente de la Conferencia Inter-Americana de Mexico sobre los Problemas de la Guerra y de la Paz, respecto de la reducción de los derechos aduaneros, desea adoptar medidas tendientes a intensificar el intercambio comercial con los Estados Unidos de América y demás Naciones Aliadas dentro de una política de concesiones mutuas y de estrecha cooperación.
En vista de que la concertación de un Acuerdo Comercial más comprensivo con los Estados Unidos de América requerirá aún cierto
El Gobierno de Chile está dispuesto, desde luego, a conceder franquicias aduaneras a los productos norteamericanos enumerados en la lista anexa, reducciones éstas que, al igual que el Convenio Provisional de Comercio de 1938, se mantendrán vigentes hasta la celebración de un Acuerdo Comercial más comprensivo con los Estados Unidos de América y que serán de considerable y positivo beneficio para los productos de ese país que gozarán así de apreciables rebajas de derechos en numerosas partidas que son de interés en su comercio con Chile.
El Gobierno de mi país ha decidido dar el paso indicado, sin estipular compensación, en el convencimiento de que así corresponde al espíritu de franca y leal cooperación que exteriorizó la Delegación de los Estados Unidos de América durante la Conferencia de Mexico.
La presente Nota y la contestación de Vuestra Excelencia expresando la conformidad de su Gobierno con esta proposición del Gobierno de Chile, constituirá un Acuerdo entre ambos paises sobre esta materia.
Este Acuerdo regirá por el plazo de un año a menos que sea sustituido durante ese período de tiempo por un Acuerdo Comercial más comprensivo, pudiendo ser denunciado por cualquiera de los dos paises mediante una notificación de 30 dias de anticipación.
El Gobierno de Chile se vale de esta ocasión para manifestar su deseo de iniciar negociaciones con el Gobierno de Vuestra Excelencia para concertar un Tratado de Amistad, Comercio y Navegación.
Aprovecho esta oportunidad para renovar a Vuestra Excelencia las seguridades de mi más alta y distinguida consideración.

Los Gobiernos representados en la Conferencia Interamericana sobre Problemas de la Guerra y de la Paz,
Que los pueblos americanos, animados de profundo amor a la justicia, permanecen sinceramente adictos a los postulados del Derecho Internacional;
Que son sus deseos que tales postulados, no obstante las difíciles circunstancias actuales, prevalezcan todavía con más fuerza en las futuras relaciones internacionales;
Que las Conferencias Interamericanas han proclamado más de una vez ciertos principios fundamentales, pero que éstos deben ser reafirmados en el momento en que se trata de reconstruir las bases jurídicas de la comunidad de naciones:
Que la nueva situación del mundo hace cada vez más imperiosa la unión y la solidaridad de los pueblos americanos para la defensa de sus derechos y el mantenimiento de la paz internacional;
Que los Estados americanos han venido incorporando a su Derecho Internacional, desde 1890, por medio de Convenciones, Resoluciones y Declaraciones, las normas siguientes:
Que el perfeccionamiento de estas normas, practicadas constantemente por los Estados americanos para garantizar la paz y la solidaridad entre las Naciones del Hemisferio, es un medio eficaz de contribuir al sistema general de seguridad mundial y de facilitar su implantación;
Que la seguridad y solidaridad del Continente se afectan lo mismo cuando se produce un acto de agresión contra cualquiera de las naciones americanas por parte de un Estado no americano, como cuando el acto de agresión proviene de un Estado americano contra otro u otros Estados americanos,
La Conferencia Interamericana sobre Problemas de la Guerra y de la Paz,
Que, con el fin de hacer frente a las amenozas o actos de agresión que después del restablecimiento de la paz se presenten contra cualquiera de las Repúblicas americanas, los Gobiernos de estas Repúblicas deberán considerar de acuerdo con sus procedimientos constitucionales la celebración de un tratado que estipule las medidas encaminadas a conjurar tales amenazas o actos por medio del empleo, por todos o algunos de los signatarios de dicho tratado, de una o más de las siguientes medidas: el retiro de los Jefes de Misión Diplomática; la ruptura de las relaciones diplomáticas; la ruptura de las relaciones consulares; la ruptura de las relaciones postales, telegráficas, telefónicas y radiotelefónicas; la interrupción de las relaciones económicas, comerciales y financieras; el empleo de las fuerzas militares para evitar o repeler la agresión.
La Declaración y la Recomendación anteriores establecen un acuerdo regional para tratar asuntos concernientes al mantenimiento de la paz y la seguridad internacionales susceptibles de acción regional en este Hemisferio. Tal acuerdo y los actos y procedimientos pertinentes deberán ser compatibles con los principios y propósitos de la organización general internacional, cuando ella se establezca.

It is their desire that such principles, notwithstanding the present difficult circumstances, prevail with even greater force in future international relations;
The inter-American conferences have repeatedly proclaimed certain fundamental principles, but these must be reaffirmed at a time when the juridical bases of the community of nations are being re-established;
The new situation in the world makes more imperative than ever the union and solidarity of the American peoples, for the defense of their rights and the maintenance of international peace;
The American states have been incorporating in their international law, since 1890, by means of conventions, resolutions and declarations, the following principles:
The furtherance of these principles, which the American States have constantly practised in order to assure peace and solidarity
The security and solidarity of the Continent are affected to the same extent by an act of aggression against any of the American States by a non-American State, as by an act of aggression of an American State against one or more American States;

El Consejo Directivo deberá someter a todos los Gobiernos del Continente dicho anteproyecto antes del 31 de diciembre de 1945.
El anteproyecto de Pacto proclamará en primer término:
El reconocimiento, por parte de todas las Repúblicas americanas, del Derecho Internacional como regla efectiva de su conducta y el compromiso de las mismas de observar las normas enunciadas en una “Declaración de Derechos y Deberes de los Estados” y en una “Declaración de Derechos y Deberes Internacionales del Hombre”, que sirvan para precisar los principios fundamentales del Derecho Internacional y que deberán figurar como anexos al Pacto, a fin de que, sin necesidad de modificar éste, puedan ser revisadas de tiempo en tiempo con objeto de que correspondan a las necesidades y aspiraciones de la convivencia internacional.
Para la elaboración de la primera Declaración, deberán coordinarse los principios ya incorporados al patrimonio jurídico del sistema interamericano, especialmente los contenidos en la “Convención sobre Derechos y Deberes de los Estados”, aprobada en la Séptima Conferencia Internacional Americana; en la “Declaración de Principios sobre Solidaridad y Cooperación Interamericanas”, adoptada en la Conferencia Interamericana de Consolidación de la Paz; en la “Declaración de los Principios de Solidaridad de América” y la “Declaración de Principios Americanos”, frutos de la Octava Conferencia Internacional Americana; en la “Declaración sobre Mantenimiento de las Actividades Internacionales dentro de la Moral Cristiana” y la Declaración relativa a “Asistencia Recíproca y Cooperación Defensiva de las Naciones Americanas”, sancionadas respectivamente en la Primera y Segunda Reuniones de Consulta; y en las Declaraciones acerca de “Solidaridad Continental en la Observancia de los Tratados Internacionales” y “Política del Buen Vecino”, y que adoptó la Tercera Reunión de Consulta. Se tomará también en cuenta el proyecto de “Reafirmación de Principios Fundamentales de Derecho Internacional”, preparado por el Comité Jurídico Interamericano y cualquiera Declaración de Principios que pudiera adoptar esta Conferencia.
En cuanto a la segunda Declaración antes mencionada, el texto será el que, en cumplimiento de la misión que se le confía en otra resolución de la presente Conferencia, formulará el Comité Jurídico Interamericano.
Es el deseo de la Conferencia Interamericana sobre Problemas de la Guerra y de la Paz que se tome en cuenta la Comisión Interamericana de Mujeres, que por 16 años ha prestado eminentes servicios a la causa americana y a la humanidad y que se la incluya entre las instituciones que integran la Unión Panamericana, con las mismas prerrogativas e igual tratamiento de que gozan las otras instituciones interamericanas que han trabajado dentro y fuera de la Unión Panamericana con carácter permanente o de emergencia.
El anteproyecto de Pacto deberá proveer al fortalecimiento del sistema americano sobre las bases de esta resolución y con la creación de nuevos órganos o la eliminación y adaptación de los actuales, precisando sus funciones y su coordinación entre sí y con la organización mundial.
El mismo anteproyecto atenderá a la necesidad de acelerar la consolidación y extensión de los instrumentos interamericanos de paz ya existentes y a la simplificación y mejoramiento del organismo de paz interamericano; a este fin, el Consejo Directivo de la Unión Panamericana deberá utilizar los servicios del Comité Jurídico Interamericano. Asimismo, el anteproyecto procurará la consolidación y simplificación de todos los demás instrumentos interamericanos, con el propósito de que su acción sea más efectiva.
El anteproyecto contendrá asimismo el establecimiento de un sistema equitativo de financiación para el sostenimiento de la Unión Panamericana y de todos los organismos conexos.
(Aprobada en la sesión plenaria del día 6 de marzo de 1945).

Conference of representatives of U. S. and Soviet commands in Korea.
The three Foreign Secretaries exchanged views with regard to the situation in China. They were in agreement as to the need for a unified and democratic China under the National Government, for broad participation by democratic elements in all branches of the National Government, and for a cessation of civil strife. They reaffirmed their adherence to the policy of non-interference in the internal affairs of China.
Mr. Molotov and Mr. Byrnes had several conversations concerning Soviet and American armed forces in China.
Mr. Molotov stated that the Soviet forces had disarmed and deported Japanese troops in Manchuria but that withdrawal of Soviet forces had been postponed until February 1st at the request of the Chinese Government.
Mr. Byrnes pointed out that American forces were in north China at the request of the Chinese Government, and referred also to the primary responsibility of the United States in the implementation of the Terms of Surrender with respect to the disarming and deportation of Japanese troops. He stated that American forces would be withdrawn just as soon as this responsibility was discharged or the Chinese Government was in a position to discharge the responsibility without the assistance of American forces.
The two Foreign Secretaries were in complete accord as to the desirability of withdrawal of Soviet and American forces from China at the earliest practicable moment consistent with the discharge of their obligations and responsibilities.
they are suitable and will work loyally with the Government.
The three Governments take note that the Rumanian Government thus reorganized should declare that free and unfettered elections will be held as soon as possible on the basis of universal and secret ballot. AU democratic and anti-fascist parties should have the right to take part in these elections and to put forward candidates. The reorganized Government should give assurances concerning the grant of freedom of the press, speech, religion and association.
A. Y. Vyshinski, Mr. Harriman, and Sir A. Clark Kerr are authorized as a Commission to proceed to Bucharest immediately to consult with King Michael and members of the present Government with a view to the execution of the above-mentioned tasks.
As soon as these tasks are accomplished and the required assurances have been received, the Government of Rumania, with which the Soviet Government maintains diplomatic relations, will be recognized by the Government of the United States of America and the Government of the United Kingdom, [1]
It is understood by the three Governments that the Soviet Government takes upon itself the mission of giving firendly advice to the Bulgarian Government with regard to the desirability of the inclusion in the Bulgarian Government of the Fatherland Front, now being formed, of an additional two representatives of other democratic groups, who (a) are truly representative of the groups of the parties which are not participating in the Government, and (b) are really suitable and will work loyally with the Government.
As soon as the Governments of the United States of America and the United Kingdom are convinced that this friendly advice has been accepted by the Bulgarian Government and the said additional representatives have been included in its body, the Government of the United States and the Government of the United Kingdom will recognize the Bulgarian Government, with which the Government of the Soviet Union already has diplomatic relations.

They have agreed to invite the other permanent members of the Security Council, France and China, together with Canada, to join with them in assuming the initiative in sponsoring the following resolution at the first session of the General Assembly of the United Nations in January 1946:—

With your note was enclosed a memorandum entitled “Memorandum relating to the use and disposal of United Nations vessels captured or found in the course of operations for the liberation of Europe”.
In your note it is stated that His Majesty’s Government in the United Kingdom understands that the Government of the United States of America is willing to apply the principles of that memorandum to vessels of all the United Nations on a reciprocal basis and, with this end in view, will enter into similar agreements with all other United Nations willing to do so, and will further take such steps as may be necessary to insure that claims in the nature of prize salvage will not be advanced in the United States courts against British vessels
You further state that “on these understandings and with these expressions of intent the present memorandum meets with the approval of His Majesty’s Government in the United Kingdom”. You add that if it likewise meets with the approval of the Government of the United States of America, your note, together with the reply indicating such approval and concurrence by the Government of the United States of America, will be regarded as constituting an agreement between the two countries. You further suggest that the agreement should be regarded as being in effect from October 22, 1943.
I have the honor to inform you that the Government of the United States of America approves the memorandum in question and concurs in the understandings expressed in your note, and will apply the principles embodied in the memorandum, on a reciprocal basis, to British vessels and to the vessels of other members of the United Nations which enter into similar agreements with the United States of America.
In accordance with the suggestion made in your note, that note and the present note in reply will be regarded as constituting an agreement between the Government of the United States of America and His Majesty’s Government in the United Kingdom, which will be regarded as being in effect from October 22, 1943.
In view of the present agreement in the case of British vessels, the Government of the United States of America undertakes, on a reciprocal basis, to take such steps as may be necessary to insure that claims in the nature of prize salvage will not be advanced in the United States courts against British vessels recovered in the course of the operations covered by the memorandum. In case similar agreements are concluded by the United States of America with other members of the United Nations, the United States of America will also undertake on the basis of reciprocity to take such steps as may be necessary to insure that claims in the nature of prize salvage will not be advanced in the United States courts against vessels of such other members of the United Nations recovered in the course of the operations covered by the memorandum.
