The President
You will have noted that the Fifth Committee recom.. mends in its report [A/1424] that the General As.. sembly should take account of th~ financial implications of the draft resolution which we have just adopted. 71. r take it that in voting on the draft resolution, you took into consideration the financial implications involved. It is therefore not necessary for me to put the Fl'fth Committee 9s…
Mr. Al..Faqih (Saudi Arabia)
1 should like to explain the position of my delegation on the resolution just adopted by the Assembly. 82. Our vote should not be interpreted in any manner as implying that we are opposed to the principles and aims which the resolution embodies. I hardly need to reiterate the position of ~y government, which has been made sufficiently clear. My government is unequivocally opposed. to all forms o…
Mr. Anze Matienzo (Plurinational State of Bolivia)
My delegation voted against part of the preamble of the Five-Power draft resolution. It did likewise in the First Committee, together with the Belgian delegation. It is aware that the draft enunciates a number of basic principles and it did not intend to commit the heresy of denying those principles, but bore in mind the fact that principles and even extracts of the Charter are often deliberately…

The President
Three speakers have opposed ·b.~e inclusion of this item in the agenda. Now, therefore, I can give the floor only to speakers who wish to speak in favour of placing this item on the agenda. I call upon the representative of the United States.
Mr. Austin (United States of America)
I wish to thank the President for permitting the United States delegation to ~peak on this question of parliamentary procedure. It is quite natural, I believe, that the United States should be called upon at this point, because it was the United States which proposed the inclusion of this item in the agenda. wrcz:-ns'"' 'iT....,..... __ ..... _., 138.

Mr. Castro (El Salvador)
I have asked for the floor to make a short statement at this time beca,use I believe that the matter with which we are concerned is of fundamental importance and that the divergence of views about it can only complicate th~e work of peace with which the United Nations is concerned. 144. The position of my government with regard to the situation in Formosa-or Ta,iwan-has been quite clear. The Gove…
The President
I apologize for proposing an alteration in the agenda. We had decided to postpone the election of a non-permanent member of the Security Council, but 1 have just learned that there is now some hope of agreement. With your permission, I shall call upon the representative of Lebanon.
Mr. Takla (Lebanon)
AlthOU2'h we found the results of this morning's vote encouraging, they did, nevertheless, show that we were still in the same irnpasse as before [29Oth and 291st meetings]. My government w\.Iuld· 'i"10t like that situation to continue, nor would it like us to be taxed with the slightest wish tCI obstruct a,ndimpede the operation of the United Nations. . 155~ In these circumsta~ces, I wish to st…

The General Committee decided unanimously to recommend that the item should . be included in the agenda and further decided by 10 votes to none to recommend that it should be referred j to the First Commi…
The President
Two speakers have already spoken against the inclusion of this item in the agenda. I can give the floor only to one more, but I saw the delegations of the Ukrainian SSR and Czechoslovakia raise their hands almost simultaneously and I cannot say which of the two asked to speak first. If they would like to come to an agreement and appoint the speaker who will say least, I should be glad to call upo…
Mr. Biheller (Czechoslovakia)
I shall be extremely brief; as a matter of fact, I shall say only a few words. • 189.
