such matters to settlement under
the present Charter"
Likewise, in the Human Rights
Covenants, now being drafted in
the UN for submission to govern

no restrictions upon or derogation
from any Of the fundamental hui
man rights recognized or existing
in any Contracting State pursuant
to law, conventions, regulations,
or custom on the pretext that the
present Covenant does not recog-
nize such rights or that it recog-
nizes them to a lesser extent.
