officials here that what he had in
mind was pre-authorization OF the
use of limited compliments of this
country's armed strength to pre-
serve or restore peace.
With this declaration, Mr.. Roos-
evelt stated his position on one OF
the two outstanding questions re.
naming to- be answered after the
Dumbarton Oaks conference Of
British, American, Russian and
Chinese representatives had draft
ed a world organization plan.
The other question is whether
each of the five great nations on
the proposed security council
should have veto on action
against itself. This problem may
be tackled by leaders of the United
States, Britain and Russia in a
meeting possibly late next month.
The issue of how to provide Am
erican forces if and when the
United States decides to partici-
pate in the world organization is
not a part of the Dumbarton Oaks
plan but a domestic question.
AS contemplated by authorities
here, this is how the issue would
work out:
The first approach to the prob
lem by congress will come when
assuming United Nations approval
of the organization, a treaty guar
anteeing United States participa
ton, goes to the capitol. Under this
treaty the United States would
commit itself to use force when.
ever the world security council de-
cided it was necessary.
Probably shortly afterward, an.
other treaty would provide that
the United States furnish certain
number of ships, planes and men
which would be available for quick
use.
There would still remain the
question of whether these forces
would have to be used only after
reference to congress on each spe'
cific issue.
1t appeared therefore, that one
piece of domestic legislation which
would have to go to congress
would be bill creating the of.
flee of delegate to the security
council and giving him specific au
thority to commit the limited for.
ces in support of peace.
