CHARLES G. ROSS
Secretary to the President
TO THE SENATE OF THE UNITED STATES:
With a view to receiving the advice and consent of the Senate
to
ratification, I transmit herewith a certified copy of a protocol, dated
at Montreal May 27, 1947, relating to an amendment to the Convention
TRUMAR
on International Civil Aviation.
NARA
The protocol, embodying a proposed amendment to the Convention,
establishes the bases upon which members of the International Civil
Aviation Organization shall be debarred from, and may be readmitted
to, membership therein.
The Convention on International Civil Aviation, formulated at
the International Civil Aviation Conference in Chicago on December 7,
1944, was ratified by me on August 6, 1946, pursuant to the Senate
resolution of July 25, 1946 and came into force on April 4, 1947.
It is now in force with respect to 43 countries, including the United
States of America.
I also transmit herewith, for the information of the Senate, the
report of the Secretary of State regarding the protocol.
HARRY S. TRUMAN
THE WHITE HOUSE,
July 11, 1947.
