There remains a very wide gap between the views of the U.S.S.R. supported
by Poland and those of the rest of the Commission, but I do not think that we
should be unduly cast down on that account, and we should certainly not
under-estimate the value and the significance of the progress which has been
made.
When the Commission began its sessions in June of 1946, now some eighteen
months ago, there was little to go on beyond a conviction that dread potential-
ities of atomic war needed to be brought under effective international control.
Since then the problem has been examined in its many intricacies and multitude
of aspects. Gradually a consensus has formed and found expression until
today ten nations out of twelve believe that they have found the right path
forward. The circumstance that the other two nations on the Commission
do not yet agree should not be regarded too seriously at this stage. As a
matter of fact both these nations have made substantial contributions to the
discussion. Certainly the representative of Poland has done so in a positive
sense and at the least the U.S.S.R. has formed an anvil on which the rest of
us have had an opportunity to forge and hammer out the conclusions we have
now reached.
