Council On African Affairs Will
Support Dumbarton Oaks Plan

NEW YORK—In an editorial in the November issue of “New Africa’, the Council
on African Affairs, headed by Paul Robeson and Max Yergan, takes issue with those who
have assailed the Dumbarton Oaks agreement as evadin

racial discrimination.

The editorial points out that the
conferences were not concerned
“with principles but with “inter-
national machinery for estab-
lishing and implementing prin-
ciples,” and that they did recom-
mend an Economic and Social
Council to “facilitate solutions
of international economic, social
and other humanitarian problems
and promote respect for human
rights and fundamental free-
-doms.’’

FULL TEXT

The full text of the editorial
follows: ;

“Sharply critical observations
on the Dumbarton Oaks plan for
a United Nations Organization
to maintain peace and security
have been voiced by several Ne-
gTo commentators and newspap-
ers because of the plan’s failure
to affirm the principle of racial
equality and its lack of reference
to colonial representation in the
assembly of nations or to the
question of dependent peoples in
general.

“The Council on African Af-
fairs deplores those omissions as
much as anyone. But we most
certainly do not agree with those
who, on that basis alone, regard
the cause of democracy as lost
and see the proposed organiza-
tion as an instrument for the
perpetuation of imperialism and
the colonial system.

PRINCIPLES ESTABLISHED
“In the first place, the Dum-

barton Qaks conferénce was a

ficials to establish principles,

g the problems of imperialism and

but rather of government tech-
Hicians to frame international
machinery for establishing and
implementing principles. The
conferees did not define an ag-
gressor nation, but they proposed
a Security Council to prevent ag-
gression. And while they did not
refer specifically to imperialist
exploitation or racial discrimin-
ation, they did recommend an
Economic and Social Gouncil,
made up of representatives of
eighteen elected nations from
the Assembly, to “facilitate
solutions of international ! eco-
omic, social and other humani-
tarian problems and promote re-
Spect for human rights and
fundamental freedoms.”

NOT COMPLETE

“Secondly, as Secretary Cor-
dell Hull has emphasized, “the
proposals in their present form
are neither complete nor final.”
They will be further developed
before being placed before the
United Nations Conference for
full consideration. And at that
time, not only China, but Ethi-
opia, liberia, Haiti and the
democratic Latin American coun-
tries will have opportunity to
present recommendations for en-
suring the world organization’s
effective action on the problems

Meanwhile, pending the calling
of the United Nations Confer-
ence it is important that organ-
ized labor and all liberal forces
in America, Great Britain, and
and other countries discuss these
problems in relation to the world
Security plan and
structive proposals to their State
officials. In that way we can <0
forward to a peoples’ peace.

NEW ARRIVALS

Three days later the same
newspaper printed the following
list of newly arrived Nazi tech-
nicians: Ulrich Bender, Hber-
hard Colsch, Reinhardt Hold and
Franz Rohieder. All were re-
ported to have been sent to min-
eral areas by Wieut. Gol. Alejan-

Camara Mineria Argentina, to
carry out explorations. When
this list was published in the
clandestine press, Col. Unsain
fired Augusto Tapia, director of
mining and geology department
in the Ministry of Industry and
Commerce, as the man respon-
sible for disclosing the informa-
tion.
