Foreign Relations of the United States, 1948, General; the United Nations, Volume I, Part 1

Editorial Note

In the area of United Nations Affairs involving non-self-governing territories outside the trusteeship system itself, two questions of interest to the United States are documented here. One relates to the recurring problem of the status of South West Africa. The other concerns the question of information (regarding the non-self-governing territories) transmitted to the United Nations by the administering authorities under Article 73(e) of the Charter of the United Nations.
