Following is an extract from a speech delivered by the Honourable L.B. Pearson before the Canadian Club, Victoria, on August 21, Begins:51

"I think it would be useful if the United Nations were to establish a small commission to work out with representatives of the Republic of Korea, plans for a government of a free and united Korea, once the fighting has ceased in that unhappy land. I am afraid that more will be required in present circumstances than a return to the status quo. To determine what more should be required is, I think, primarily the responsibility and, indeed, the privilege of Asian members of the United Nations. For that purpose, if a commission of the kind I have suggested were formed, I think it would be wise to have the majority of the commission from Asia. We get, these days, a lot of good advice from Asian leaders on the handling of Asian problems. This would be a good occasion to offer them responsibility for translating this advice into action." Ends.
