But we went back to West- | minster Hall and we restarted a parliament far stronger than it was before we cut off King Charles’ head.” Noel-Baker also pointed out that there was not a single capital of any of the United Nations within 2,000 miles of San Francisco and that there were 28 international capitals within center of Europe Ambassador van Royen, repre- senting The Netherlands, then spoke up in support of the British and French delegates, but he didn’t get far' Blasts At Europe Soviet Ambassador Gromyko, al- though chairman, rose and blasted the idea of placing the organiza- tion’s headquarters in Europe. Gromyko's remarks were considered significant. “As the rtepresentative for the Soviet Union,” he said, “I wish to say that the Soviet Government has a definitely negative attitude towards Geneva as a possible place for the United Nations Organiza- tion. The Soviet Government con- siders ‘that the United States would be the proper place for the United Nations Organizaticn. The United States is located conveni- ently between Asia and Europe. The old world ones and it is t world to have it “I am not about th» Geneva,” Gromyko continued. is well known to everybody. I am in agreement with what has been said by my leagues from China and Australia on this subject. T am not going to_add anything tion with Geneva. That have to say at this stage.” Gromyko was followed by Rybar of Yugoslavia. “I do think that the past has shown us had it new he has r the 1ything geing to is all T that by having the seat in Europe | you get a rapprochment between the European people,” he argued “There was discord in Europe among the European peoples, the spirit of Geneva did not help to eliminate it.” Rybar was interrupted by Baker, who went back to his geo- graphical peint that many more world capitals were closer to Europe than to America. But the Yugo- | slav brushed him aside Seat In U. S. “I should like to point out the| following advantages having the | seat in the United States,” Rybar | continued: “America was populated more or less from European peoples. They, I would say, fled from Europe, very many for po- litical and economic reasons, to establish there a new home, build- ing up also & new spirit.

If it is the will of the majority of the United Nations to come to the United States and have the | headquarters of 'the Organization | within the United States, the United States Government stands ready to extend an invitation to the United Nations to come there. “The last point I wish to make, | Mr. Chairman,” continued Stet- tinius, this: Several. delegates have spoken for and against San Francisco.
