Xxx III CONFIDENTIAL US/A/AC.52/12 March 8, 1951 UNITED STATES MISSION TO THE UNITED NATIONS SUBJECT: General Assembly Committee on Additional Measures Paper No. 2 Report of the Bureau (Submitted to Committee at meeting on March 8, 1951) List of Possible Measures for Consideration by the Committee In presenting the list attached as Annexe I, the Bureau wishes in no way to suggest that the measures contained therein may be appropriate. It may be that some of these lines of approach would be undesirable. If this were to be the case, the Bureau would feel that it would be better for the Committee to face this fact rather than to recommend action prematurely and without full consideration. It should also be made clear that the mere fact that items are included in the list does not permit the inference that they are under active consideration by the Committee as practical measures. The question of how practical this or that avenue of approach may be raises matters concerned with the conduct of the Committee's work. It would seem to the Bureau unwise for the Committee as a whole to take this list of possible measures as a kind of agenda. In the circumstances, it would be the recommendation of the Bureau that the Committee should appoint a suo-committee to consider what might be practical in this field and to report to the main Committee, thereby greatly simplifying the work of the main Committee and minimizing the possibility that it might by implied that the Committee was considering a wide field of punitive action. The sub-committee should also consider priorities in the work of the Committee. Such a suo-committee might consist of five members of the Committee, including some of the countries most closely involved. This list does not include measures which have already been taken by the United Nations, or which are in process of being taken, under existing resolutions of the Security Council and the General Assemoly, such as military, financial, economic and other relief assistance to victims of aggression, appeals to the parties, and so on. For the information of the Committee, a brief historical survey of the experience of the League of Nations in this field, which has been prepared by the Secretariat at the request of the Bureau, is attached as Annexe II. 307 CONTIDENTIAL I
