Fortunately, as far as Ecuador is concerned, its Govern- ment maintained those high principles in the memorandum which it addressed to the American Governments prior to the Mexico Conference, and subsequently submitted them briefly to the consideration of th-t Conference. It therefore behooves the Delegation of Ecuador to the San Franoisco Conference to renew its faith in those generous principles, formulating them again and giving them all the necessary scope 80 that the Conference may adopt them in the text of the Charter of the World Organization. 3. Furthermore, those principles do not exhaust the inventory of the legitimate aspirations of America, for it is necessary to recall that in the Mexico Conference the is SERVICE* RECORDS AND Delegetions of our Republics merely deemed advisable to advance certain criteria which might serve as bases for the concise conclusions adopted in the chepter on world Organization. The Delegations went to Mexico knowing in advance that that vest problem would be dealt with in its entire depth and scope at the San Francisco Conference and that, conse- quently, it wes not necessary to debate it in extenso but only to outline general opinions which might permit arriving at likewise general conclusions. However, otwithstanding the incipient manner of consider- ing such important question, Resolution XXX of the Mexico Conference ought to exercise a healthy and guiding influence in the results of the United Notions World Conference if the American Republics should succeed in disciplining and unifying their perticipation in it, preventing the dispersion of their opinions and positions from leeding them in disorder to impro- ductivity of effort. America's contribution to the creation of e world Charter involves transcendental angles. Her Governments have just wisely perfected the Inter-American System it the Chapulteped Conference, eliminating its original defects; or has just provided a security system egainst all aggression by defining an aggressor and establishing bunitive measures and means for restoring the breached juridical order; or, lestly, has just affirmed and enriched the patrimony of rights of the States, so that at the San Frencisco Conference our republics may not be confined to the role of accommodating and subordinate spectators. The key to the effectiveness and, consequently, to the survival of a world organization will lie to a very greet extent on its ability to borrow the spirit and the letter of 56 -3-
