RESTRICTED GENERAL AGREEMENT ON 28 January 1965 TARIFFS AND TRADE Limited Distribution Original: English ACCESSION OF YUGOSLAVIA The following communication dated 27 January has been received from the head of the Yugoslav delegation in Geneva. On the basis of the Declaration of 13 November 1962 and the Decision of the same date concerning the participation of Yugoslavia in the work of the CONTRACTfIG PARTIES my country has -,he status of a provisional member of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade. The validity of the Declaration and the Decision expires at the end of this year. Accordingly, I have the honour to inform you that my Government has decided to participate in the Kennedy negotiations with a view to its full accession to the General Agreement. My Government expects that the terms of participation of Yugoslavia as a less- developed country in the trade negotiations and its accession to the GATT will be governed by the principles and decisions adopted at the meeting of Ministers in Stay 1963 and in Pay 1964 and the provisions of the new chapter on trade and develop- ment, as well as by the general conditions of participation in the Kennedy Round to be set for the less-developed contracting parties. The Yugoslav Government is convinced that its decision will promote the realisa- tion of the purposes set forth in the Declaration of 13 November 1962 and that it will make a contribution to the objectives of the General Agreement. Finally, I have the honour to communicate that, in view of the foregoing. my Government expects also that the validity of the said Declaration and Decision will be further extended,, if the Kennedy negotiations are not completed by the end of this year, ./..

The ICRC and the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis, Le CICR Et La Crise
RICR Juin IRRC June 2001 Vol. 83 No 842 287 The ICRC and the 1962 Cuban missile crisis by Thomas Fischer n 6 November 1962, the Swiss ambassador and former President of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), Paul Rüegger, embarked on a delicate mission to negotiate with the United Nations OSecretary-General and the representatives of the two superpowers and Cuba in New York. His task was to specify and obtain prior acceptance of the conditions under which the ICRC was prepared to lend its good offices to the United Nations and the parties involved in the Cuban missile crisis, so as to help ease the tension that had arisen from the secret introduction of Soviet nuclear weapons in the Caribbean. This article deals with the unusual role the ICRC was ready to play in that crisis and sheds new light on how it came to be engaged in these highly political matters. New American, Soviet and Cuban sources that have become known since 1990 reveal in great detail the events surround- ing the planned ICRC intervention in the missile crisis. It is a story that has so far remained untold. Most of the new material is to be found in the microfiche collection of declassified documents on the Cuban missile crisis compiled and made available by the National Thomas Fischer is a Ph.D. candidate at the Department of Political Science, University of Zurich, Switzerland, and a research assistant at the Center for International Studies (CIS), Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Zurich. 288 The ICRC and the 1962 Cuban missile crisis Security Archive, a private research institution in Washington DC.1 The collection also contains the relevant documents of the United Nations Archives in New York.

13 Introduction to the Statutes and Regulations
INTRODUCTION TO THE STATUTES AND REGULATIONS The last consolidation of the statutes and regulations of the Univer sity, which came into operation on 25th October 1961, may be found in the 1961 University Calendar. The present volume contains the statutes and regulations in force incorporating Governor's Paper No. 821. Anno tations appear at the end of each statute or regulation which has been enacted or amended since the consolidation. The annotations show the date of coming into operation of every enactment or amendment made since the consolidation, other than amendments of any section (or paragraph etc. as explained in the following paragraph) which has, since that amendment, been repealed in its entirety. References in the annotations are to sections of statutes and regula tions, except in the case of statutes 2.4.1, 2.5.1 and 3.5.1, and the schedules to regulations 6.72 and 7,75 which are respectively annotated to the level of paragraphs (S.2.4.1 and S.2.5.1), sub-paragraphs (S.3.5.1) and serial numbers (schedules to regulations 6.72 and 7.75). It should be stressed that the dates shown are the dates in which particular enactments came into operation in their present form but not in principle. To talce a simple example: The degree of master of Business AoSriinistration was instituted by the enactment of regulation 3.70 on 3rd February 1963. That regulation was wholly repealed and re-enacted with amendments on 16th March 1966. Accordingly the later date is shown in the annotation as the date of coming into operation of the regulation in its present form; but the earlier date is the date of the institution of the degree.

II.C. 2 Price: $U.5. 1.50 (or equivalent in other currencies) FOREWORD This report represents part II of the World Economic Survey, 1962. As indicated in the Foreword to part I, "The Developing Countries in World Trade" (Sales No.: 63.II.C.1), it consists of three chapters dealing with recent developments in the world economy. Chapter 1 analyses the situation in the industrially advanced private enterprise countries. Chapter 2 reviews current trends in the countries that are heavily dependent on the export of primary commodities. Chapter 3 provides an account of recent changes in the centrally planned economies. The three chapters follow a brief introduction which draws attention to some of the salient features of the current situation. Most of the analysis is concerned with the calendar year 1962; chapters 1 and 2 conclude with brief assessments of the outlook for 1963. These discussions of outlook draw to a large extent on the replies of Governments to a questionnaire on economic trends, problems and policies circulated by the Secretary-General in November 1962. Like part I, part II of the World Economic Survey, 1962 was prepared in the Department of Economic and Social Affairs by the Bureau of General Economic Research and Policies. iii EXPLANATORY NOTES The following

HOLTHUIS Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie, Leiden, Netherlands Now that 50 volumes of Crustaceana have been published it seems a fitting occasion to give a list of the dates of publication of the various parts and of the supplements. The actual dates in some cases are different from those printed on the covers, although in only a very few cases this discrepancy is serious. I am most indebted to Mr. P. A. Kranenburg of Messrs. E.

The data of supplements 1 to 3 incl. and 5 could not be found in the files of Brill's; the ones given here are those on which the copies were received by the library of the Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie, they are at the most 1 or 2 days later than the actual dates of publication.

Khrushchev, could not match the United States in nuclear weapons or strategic delivery systems nor push the western nations out of Berlin. In the east, the Chinese constantly ha- rassed him concerning Soviet weakness. In his frustration and frantic search for an opportunity to alter the strategic imbal- ance, he turned to Cuba . In 1959, Fidel Castro had over- thrown the dictator, Fulgencio Batista, and assumed power. Initially promising free elections, he soon instituted a socialist dictatorship . Hundreds of thousands of Cubans fled their is- land, many coming to the United States . From his rhetoric and actions, Castro proved he was a Communist. Conse- quently, in late 1960, the President of the United States, Dwight D . Eisenhower, authorized the Central Intelligence Agency to plan an invasion of Cuba using Cuban exiles as troops . Ultimately, Eisenhower hoped that in conjunction with the invasion, the Cuban people would overthrow Castro and install a moderate, pro-U.S . government.
