learned, while the question of in
ternational force still needs iron
ing out.
The three countries have agreed
that small nations shall have ro-
tating seats on the council, follow
ing the proposal made by presi-
dent Roosevelt last June.
Present indications are that the
Dumbarton Oaks conferees will
set down only the main points Of
the new organization to keep the
world at peace, and leave many
details to the full-dress United Ma
lions conference scheduled later
this year, and to the agency itself.
The tests for admission to the
organization, rules of procedure
in the assembly, and the manner
of electing representatives Of
smaller nations to the council are
among the points which may be
left for the general meeting.
After the actual setting up Of the
peace organization, which some
optimistic sponsors hope can come
by next spring, it could go into
establishment of a world court,
arrangement for regional councils,
and liaison with other United Ma
tons organizations such as those
on food and finance.
One difficult question is what
to do with mandates set up under
the deceased league Of nations.
Dumbarton conferees are reported
to favor leaving mandate issues
for settlement partly in peace
