To invite Governments to send to the Secretary-General all pertinent-information in their possession and, in particular, ~e Governments which have the ,nece?sary experts and R-E C E I V E ~Jratory facilities, to inf~rm the Secretary-General w ,;;-: R 2 0 194g thet are willing to participate in a joint programme of res arch and ta submit proposals concerning the methods of UNITED NATIONS ' · A~ cH ave: s co-· peration which they may recornmend; .-.... --- _,.. ..,,= =- m~ To invite E/CN.7 /159 Page 2 3· To invite the Governments of the producing countries to furnish, subject to the provisions of chapter V of the Geneva Convention of 1925, samples of ~he opium prodùced in their countries, on the request of the Governments which are participating in the joint research programme". (E/1065, resolution 159 (VII) IIC, 3 August 1948) In pursuance of this resolution, circular letters -vrere dispatched by the Secretary-General té Governments on 20 Augu.st 1948 (C.N.ll0.1948 Narcotics) ana, 13 October 1948 (CN.112.1948.Narcotics)~/ So far the United Nations Secretariat has received thirty replies, which are classified in the following groups: I· Countries which have replied merely by.acknowledging receipt of one or both of the above circular letters from the Secretary- General-2/ : Australia (18 October 1948); Belgium (13 October 1948); Bolivia (8 September 1948,26 Octobe·r 1948); Burma (5 January 1949); China (16 October 1948); Co1ombia (26 October 1948); Dominican Republic (6 December 1948); El Salvador (18 October 1948, 29 November 194Ç3); Finland (27 AU:gust 1948, 19 October 1948); .

II. Countries which have replied stating that they are not in a position to take part in the proposed programme of collaborative research: Haiti.- 4 November 1948. The Haitian ~v-erP.Jnènt stated tha:t the;r have no expert or suitable laboratory capable of furnish1ng the desired information nor are they in a position to participa~e in the suggested programme of collaborative research. Iraq.- 19 October 1948. It would bedifficult for Iraq to take art in this programme as they have insufficient experts _and laboratories. New Zealand - 14- Decembèr 194-8. The Minister of External Affaira !_f See E/CN. 7/157 Y The date in brackets is the date of the reply. /confir.med E/CN.7 /159 Page 3 confirmed the advice given provisionally in his note No. 216 of 11 Octocer to the effect tha·t the facili t ies and :personnel availa"ble in New Zealand would not enable .the New Zealand Government to participate in the progr8Jlllll.e ~n research on this subject. Philippines - 5 November 194.8. "Much as it desired to participate in the joint programme of research with regard to the methods of determining the origin of raw opium by chemical and pbysical means, this Government cannat do so because of the lack of necessary experts and laboratory facilities." III. Countries which have replied stating that they are willing to participate or to co-operate in the proposed programme of collaborative research: Austria - 6 November i948. Austria is willing to participate in a joint programme of research. The Federal Government requested further information concerning the method of co-operation in orde~ to inform the Austrian scientists' 1vho have agreed to co-operate. Bulgaria - 14 February 1949. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs informed the Secretary-General that the competent Bulgarian authorities have declared themselves ready to collaborate with the United Nations in the sense of the resolution. Canada - 25 October 1948. "While research work of this kind has not been undert~ken to any appreciable extent in Canada previously 1aboratory facilities and technical personnel are available to participate in any joint program of resea~ch which the Economie and r Social Council may recommend. The Canadian Government would be happy to co-operate in any such program of research. It is assumed that if and when such a research prograni is developed arrangements will be made for the procurement of the largest possibl'e nùmber of ·opium samples of authentic origin for distribution to governments able and willing to co-operate in the proposed research program. 11 Norway - 17 November 1948. The Norwegian authorities are interested in taking part in a joint programme of research with regard ta determining the origin of opium. Norway has the necessary laboratory facilities and one expert, Professor A. Jermstad, the Director of the 'Farmasoytiske Institutt', Blindern, Oslo. United Kingdom- 25 January 19l19. "In His Majesty's Governments view, there are v:aluable possibilities latent in the pursuit of work on the determination of the origins of opium by chemical and physical means. They recognize that the effective pursuit of inquiries into the illicit traffic in opium could be greatly facilitated by the sure determination of the origins of seized samples: it has certainly been /the ir E/CN. 7/159 Page 4. their experience in the past, that this work of determination, utilizing methods detective rather than scientific in character, has rarely been a matter of certainty. "His Majesty's Government welcpme the new approach to the question; but, while recognizing the interesting work which has peen carried out, _notably in the United.States of America, they are disposed to view the results achieved with some caution. There is a dang~r, ~n t'heir view,. in the possibility that a new scientific approach may, ·in its early stages and until thoroughly tested by experience, be based on fallacious premises or argument and tend to premature dogmatism. They are therefore inclined towards a cautious approach to the matter. "Suph work as has as yet been dons in the United Kingdom has be en sporadic in character. Funds for organized research are not readily available and hitherto it has rather fallen to a few distinguished scientists, working individually, to pursue their own lines of enquiry. His Majesty's Government doubt if such work as has been done in the United Kingdom c-ould yet justify any consiùered communication to the Secretary-General on their part; and they accordingly attempt no such communication. For the same reason, while anxious to C?-operate to the fullest of their powers in this valuable -vrork, they feel that it may yet be premature to embark on a joint programme of Fesearch on international lines". United States of America - 19 November 1948. "The Treasury Department is prepared to participate in a joint programme of researc~ 'tbrough assignment of a qualified chemist or chemists, with suitable laboratory facilities, for furtherwork upon, and collaborative study of, the pro1ject. "It is respectfully proposed (l) that such other governments as are willing to participate in the joint programme likewise assign a qualified chemist or chemists, with suitable laboratory facilities, for work upon, and collaborative study of, the project; (2) that the goverrrments of the producing count~ies, pursuant to the invitation xpressed in paragraph 3 of the Council's resolution, furnish to each goverrrment participating in the joint research programme a number of representative urrmi~ed samples of opium collected from different areas of production within each of their res~ective countries; and (3) that the chemist or group of chemists assigned to the research project by each partic-ipating government shall proceed to de:termine, with respect to each sample of opium thus made available to his government by each producing country, at least the codeine content, microscopie test, porphyroxine-meconidine color, and morphine content, and the same determinations should be made by the chemist. or group of chemists with /resueçt E/CN.7/159 Page 5 respect ta a sample of opium taken from all important seizures of opium by his government ,· even though the circumstances may already indicate the country where the seized opium originated.

HAYEZ, Bruxelles — m, rue de Louvain, ni — Dom. légal : r. de la Chancellerie. 4 FOREWORD The delegates assembled at Fontainebleau do not claim to have inaugurated International Nature Protection. The idea has been in being for a long time, and I think I shall not be blamed if I mention here only the name of Paul Sarasin, the great Swiss pioneer. He was able to create in his own country a genuine movement in favour of the protection of natural resources and amenities and was the founder of the Swiss National Park. A far-sighted scientist, he soon realized the uselessness of scattered effort, and saw how urgent it was to concentrate this by achieving an international agreement to unify the various existing laws and co-ordinate the widespread national measures taken to preserve fauna and flora menaced by man's so-called civilization. In 1913 Paul Sarasin managed to establish a diplomatic instrument signed in Bern by a certain number of States, and later gaining the adherence of more Governments. The 1914 war seriously hampered the activities of the « Advisory Commission » thus created, and the enterprise had no active sequence. Immediately after the war, in 1918, an effort was made to reconstitute the Commission, but other and more urgent matters claimed public attention. However, the seed was sown on favourable ground and might be expected to sprout in time.

DODD Deputy Director -General: SIR HERBERT BROADLEY TF:r STATE OF FOOD !D AGRICULTURE-1943 A Survey of World Conditions and Prospects FOOD AND AGRICULTURE ORGANIZATION OF THE UNITED NATIONS Washington, D. C., U.S.A. September 1948 FOREWORD HE STATE OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE, 1948 has been prepared at the request of member governments as a basic document for the intergovernmental consultations on plans and programs at the Fourth Session of the FAO Conference in November; but it is also addressed to the general public. The world still suffers from a shortage of food, fibers, and forest products, even if the situation may become less acute in the current year.Hence, itis important to ascertain to what extent governments have programs which will put an end to scarcities within a reasonable time and go on to provide a more adequate level of supplies, par- ticularly in the low-incorne countries. From the information available to FAO, I am convinced of two things: first, much more is being done to expand production around the world than is generally realized (and another Conference document, National Pro g- ress in Food and Agriculture Programs, will illustrate this); second, what is being done, although so noteworthy, isfar from sufficient to make any significant improvement upon the low living standards of most peoples.

I PREFACE Ma]or Economic Changes in 1948 is the third of a series of reports dealing with world economic conditions, prepared by the Department of Economic Affairs of the United Nations. The first, Economic Report: Salient Features of the World Economic Situation 1945-47, was issued in January 1948; a supple- ment to that report, Selected World Economic Indices, was issued in July 1948. The purpose of the present publication is to make generally available a preliminary review of important economic developments which occurred during 1948. It is being issued at this time in order to provide the Economic and Social Council with a useful factual background for discussion of the current world economic situation at its eighth session in February 1949. A comprehensive economic survey of the world situation will be issued towards the middle of 1949. That survey will take account both of the regional economic reports which will become available during the early months of 1949 from the secre- tariats of the regional economic commissions of the United Nations in Europe, Latin America and the Far East, and of the economic activities of the specialized agencies. Part I of Major Economic Changes in 1948 provides a broad picture of the main economic develop- ments during the year 1948, based on data, necessarily incomplete for the year, which were available at the time the report was prepared.
