UNCORRECTED GALLEY PROOF
Recommendation
It is recommended that
1. We take steps to induce the six American Republics now
listed as "associated" nations (Chile, Ecuador, Paraguay, Peru,
Uruguay, and Venezuela) to qualify as United Nations by declaring
war on Japan or Germany, or both; and
2. Failing this, we continue to maintain the position taken at
Dumbarton Oaks.

MEMORANDUM FOR THE PRESIDENT
Subject: Location of The United Nations Organization
Background
This question was not formally discussed at Dumbarton Oaks,
although there were some exchanges of views. The Soviet delegation
objected to Geneva. One of the Soviet delegates very informally
suggested Prague. The British and the Chinese raised no objection
to Geneva, but had no positive suggestions.
We had a group of our own working on the question. It is recom-
mended that, while the Assembly, the Council, and the various con-
ferences should meet in various parts of the world, the headquarters
of the Organization should be in Europe. It also examined the follow-
