IN MANDATED LANDS
TRUSTEESHIP SYSTEM
Rec. 1 p.m. LONDON, Dec. 21. A compromise for the establishment of a trusteeship system for mandated territories as speedily as possible was agreed on by the Trusteeship Committee of the United Nations' Preparatory Commission, voting 28 to 0, with three abstentions on a formula drawn up by a sub-committee.
The Soviet delegation and others objected to the creation of a temporary trusteeship committee before the establishment of the Trusteeship Council envisaged by the United Nations Charter.
The Preparatory Commission will make recommendations to the General Assembly, which is meeting in January, vyhich means in practice that the question will be transmitted to the Trusteeship Committee of the General Assembly.
States holding mandates under the League of Nations will be invited to the General Assembly to take practical steps in concert with other States directly concerned which' would then be submitted for the approval of the General Assembly, preferably not later than the second part of its first session.
