Mr. Lodge S/PV.704 Nov. 29, 1954

The remarks of the Soviet representative are as inaccurate as they are un('.alled for, and that is saying quite a good deal. When he says that we should ponder weIl as to who wants and who does not want a solution of the membership question, 1 echo him. That is the ooly respect in which 1 do, becaus…

Mr. Lodge S/PV.704 Nov. 29, 1954

Is it not possible that, in spite of the omission of the Mongolian People's Republic from the list, the Council could weIl propose to the General Assembly the admission of seventeen new Members? ets ter S1 : ,n, et

Mr. Lodge S/PV.704 Nov. 29, 1954

What 1 am about to say is said as the representative of a Government which profoundly believes in the desira- bilityof admittingnew Members to the United Nations. With that in mind, and with the very great respect that 1 have for the President, 1 must say that 1 do not share his belief that the defi…

Mr. Wadsworth S/PV.677 July 28, 1954

On behalf of Mr. Lodge, and in his absence, 1 should like to talœ this opportunity of e:l\.-pressing the appre- ciation of our delegation for the very kind and generous things that the President ha's slaid about him. 10. We should like also to associate oUl"selves very fully with the remarks that th…

Mr. Wadsworth S/PV.669 May 3, 1954

l have listened to the discussion on this proce- durai matter for sorne little time, and although l would be the last to deny the opportunity to any member of this Council to make his point clearly so that there can be no doubt whatsoever as to where he stands, l would submit that perhaps to some ex…

Mr. Wadsworth S/PV.667 April 22, 1954

l am sorry to have to break up a compromise, but unfortunately, due to commitments which are absolutely unbreakable both Ambassador Lodge and l have to be in Washington on Monday. 147. Mr. MUNRO (New Zealand): l do not wish to inconvenience the Couneil. l have commitments to- morrow which, from one …

Mr. Lodge S/PV.649 Dec. 17, 1953

l was saying that l'agree with the representative of the Soviet Union that we do not want to have a forced march. l think that would be very unfortunate. l am always willing to extend the courtesy of a delay whenever a valid reason is given for delay. 197. l will say to the representative of Lebanon…

Mr. Lodge S/PV.649 Dec. 17, 1953

l think I unG;,;rstand some of the motivations for the re- marks made by the representative of the Soviet UniOn. While l do not shan: them aIl, l can certainly agree that there should be no foiced- march. l am not in favour of a forced march. In fad, l am always willing to extend the courtesy of a d…

Mr. Lodge S/PV.649 Dec. 17, 1953

Speaking for t...'J.t: United States delegation, 1 am glad to say that 1 would he willing to meet bath tomorrow morning and tomorrow afternoon and, if necessary, on Saturday, in order to expedite this bu~iness and to show the President every co-operation in his desire to complete the programme. 172…

Mr. Wadsworth S/PV.647 Dec. 14, 1953

The Counci~ has met on three occasions during the vast two and one-half months on this item, with the result each time that considerations outside the direct purview of this Counci1 have indicated the advisability of postponement. During this period we are pleased"to note that there has been a consi…

Mr. Lodge S/PV.627 Oct. 20, 1953

The United States has joined with France and the United Kingdom in requesting urgent meetings of the Security Council on the agenda item before us. We are concerned over the reports coming from the Near East of viol­ ations of the General Armistice Agreements between Israel and the Arab States. If t…

Mr. Gross S/PV.587 July 3, 1952

l want ta speak ta the motion made by the representa- tive ,d the Soviet Union. I would like ta state the reason for the objection which my delegation has ta the proposal made by the representative of·the .So.viet Union;· When the proposaI was first made by the repre- sentative of the Soviet Union -…

Mr. Gross S/PV.581 June 25, 1952

The situation now seems to be perfectly clear. The Presi- dent has announced that the agenda has been adopted. On the basis of the adoption of the agenda just now announced by the President, it seems clear, as the representative of Chile has said, that the regular order of business requires us to ta…

Mr. Gross S/PV.581 June 25, 1952

As l understand the suggestion - and 1 am not sure whether it is a s~stion of the President of the Council or of the represehtative of the Soviet Union, though ! assume it is a suggestion made by the President- it is that we should now proceed to vote on a revised draft resolution submitted by the r…

Mr. Gross S/PV.582 June 25, 1952

l d\':l not wish to make a statement at this moment, but, in view ot the reference which the President has made to his intention, as representative of the Soviet Union, ta make a concluding statement, l simp1y want to reserve the right of the United States delegation to reply to any statement which …

Mr. Ross S/PV.571 Jan. 30, 1952

When the Security Counetl cOl1sidered the report of the United Nations Representative during the 570th meeting, the United States representative observed that the practice of mediation is one of the greatest of arts and in our country Mr. Graham is one of its most distinguished practitioners. This f…

Mr. Gross S/PV.5 Dec. 19, 1951

l shou1d like to express 111Y sincere regret if the situation which has arisen has caused inconvenience to colleaglles in this Council who have made other arrangements. l should also like to say that at the time when the President proposed an adjollrtll11ent my name was not then on the list of speak…

Mr. Gross S/PV.5 Dec. 19, 1951

I am prepared either ta stay here now or to return for a resumption of the meeting this evening if that is more convenient ta members of the Council. I shou1d, in uny event, like to have an opportunity to speak on the points that have been raised, and particularly on some direct references which hav…

Mr. Gross S/PV.567 Dec. 6, 1951

That \Vonld appear to pose a questioÎ1 of principle, and l shoulcl have thought that a question of faet would be at the disposaI of the Council. l resp~et that i~dependen~e of action on the part of the Secunty Councl! and l dld not consider that my suggestion or request for in- formation in any way …

Mr. Gross S/PV.567 Dec. 6, 1951

l shoulcl like to inquire whether the Secretariat can advise us when we may receive that information which several of us. have already received infonl1ally and which we \Voulel clesire to confirm. l would support the point of view previously expressed by the representative of France on the question …
