Mr. Yost S/PV.963 July 20, 1961

My dele- gation very much regrets that the SecurityCouncilhas been unable to take any further decision today on this vital question. 116. The calI for a cease-fire and a return to pre- vious positions remains, of course, in full effect. On the basis of the reports of the representatives of Tunisia …

Mr. Stevenson S/PV.942 Feb. 21, 1961

1 shaU not detain the Council more than a minute and a half. 1 wanted to say to the representative of the Soviet Union that 1 am a great admirer of Chester Bo\,..-les, that we talk often-we have for more thanforty years, but seldom at four o'clock in the morning. 212. Also 1 should like to saythat1…

Mr. Stevenson S/PV.942 Feb. 21, 1961

l must apologize for speaking again. but l attach the greatest importance to the adoption of this draft reso- lution tonight. to expressing our reaction to the horrors that have befallen the Congo in "recent weeks. 143. In another effort to find mutually satisfactory language. l would propose-and l…

Mr. Stevenson S/PV.942 Feb. 21, 1961

l have some amendments to propose to this draft resolu- tion and l should like to explain them to members of the Council. The propo3ed amendments [S/4740] are as follows: "1. In the first preambular paragraph add after the words '20 February' the words 'and of other re- ports'; ,after the words 'as…

Mr. Stevenson S/PV.942 Feb. 21, 1961

In my earlier statement today 1 expressed my under- standing of various ambiguities in the draft resolution S/4722 proposecl, by Ceylon, Liberia and the United Arab Republic, and I made a suggestion for a revision of operative paragraph 3 which I want to refer ta once more this evening. My purpose w…

Mr. Stevenson S/PV.941 Feb. 20, 1961

1 apologize for intervening so often, but 1 seem to have trouble making myself understood by the representa- tive of the Soviet Union. 1 asked today for immediate action, not l'eaction. 1 think we have too much reaction and not enough action. And 1amprepared now ta vote- and to sit here as long as i…

Mr. Stevenson S/PV.941 Feb. 20, 1961

l am sorry that the representative of the Soviet Union both misunderstood and mis-stated my position. My position is that we are preparedto proceed now to vote on draft resolution S/4722. We will not be prepared to proceed to the vote ondraftresolution S/4733/Rev.1 186. M. STEVENSON (Etats-Unis d'A…

Mr. Stevenson S/PV.941 Feb. 20, 1961

l do not insist that we adjourn atthis time, but l have to say that Iwould object to the resumption of our meeting with the voting on the draft resolution S/4733/Rev.1. l suspect that there maybe some other revisions which some delegations may wish to make anduntilthey have been heard and considered…

Mr. Stevenson S/PV.928 Feb. 1, 1961

Ml'. President, first let me say that 1 am very happy to come to this table for the first time in many years under your presldency. Under the rulea, 1 understand that 1must succeed you al3 President the first of next month, and 1wish that 1did not suspect that you would relinquish that honour with t…

Mr. Barco S/PV.911 Dec. 4, 1960

Mr. President, you have once more this eveningabusedthe privileges of the Chair. I move that we adjourn under rule 33 of the Provisional Rules of Procedure.

Mr. Barco S/PV.911 Dec. 4, 1960

The United States deeply regrets that the Soviet Union has seen fit this morning once more to cast its veto-the ninety-first veto that it has usedtoblockand frustrate the will of the majority. This,it seems to me, is a sad record, unworthy of a great Power. We cannot help wondering what the occasion…

Mr. Barco S/PV.911 Dec. 4, 1960

The traditional policy of the United States is to support applications for membership from states which accept the obliga- tions of the Charter and which are able to carry out these obligations. 146. In keeping with this traditional policy,the United states will vote in favour of the draft resoluti…

Mr. Barco S/PV.911 Dec. 4, 1960

Mr. President, my proposal is not whether we should vote separately, but to vote separately on these items in the order inwhichthey appear inthe provisional agenda in document S/Agenda/911/Rev.1. In other words, I have requested you to put to the vote the first sub- 95. M. BARCO (Etats-Unis d'Ameri…

Mr. Herter S/PV.908 Oct. 7, 1960

Since I will be unable to attend the meeting of the General Assembly this afternoon and to take part in the cere- monies there-which we all anticipate with so much pleasure-I asked for the privilege of participating in the meeting of the Security Council this morning. I could not have asked for a mo…

Mr. Wadsworth S/PV.907 Sept. 28, 1960

Mr. President, first of all, I should like to associate my delegation withthe sentiments expressedby you and by .several other delegations concerning the repre- sentation at this table of our sister American State of Ecuador. As has been noted, Mr. Correa not only represented Ecuador in accordance w…

Mr. Barco S/PV.904 Sept. 16, 1960

I thank the representative of Ceylon for his explanation, but I am sorry to say that it does not help me very much, much as I appreciate it. The point is-and I think that my statement this morning is still a correct interpre- tation-that in my view and the view of the United States the Soviet repres…

Mr. Barco S/PV.904 Sept. 16, 1960

I wishto exercise my right of reply. 27. J'ai la plus grande.estimepourlerepresentantde Ceylan mais je me vois oblige de formuler une obser- vation au SUj6t d'une declaration qu'il a faite dans le discours qu'il a prononce ce matin. J e crois qu'il a dit que, bien que les projets de resolution pres…

Mr. Wadsworth S/PV.900 Sept. 14, 1960

I should like to make a formal motion under rule 33 (2) for the purpose of allowing other members of the Council to indicate their reaction to the suggestion I am about to make, and that suggestion is that we adjourn until a mutually convenient time after dinner this evening.

Mr. Wadsworth S/PV.899 Sept. 14, 1960

It is not so much a question of whether there is specific objection to allowing a non-member of the Council to speak. The representatives of various states who are present here have all been invited to the Council table in accordance with our regular procedures. The ob- jection w}\ich I understood w…

Mr. Wadsworth S/PV.900 Sept. 14, 1960

Very briefly, in explanation of vote. It may have been noted that I did not takepart inthe last series of inter- ventions as to the rulings and so forth which were made by you, Mr. President, but, of course, it may be noted tliat I agreed very thoroughly with your rul- ing. I voted against this part…
