we shall continue to the extent of our possibilities to accomplish those aims.

6. Adoption of the agenda

The President: I think we will proceed now to item 5, the adoption of the agenda. Shall I take it that members of the Council approve of the adoption of the agenda? That is carried.

The agenda was adopted.

7. Adoption of provisional rules of procedure[1]

The President: Item 6: the adoption of the provisional rules of procedure. Are members willing to approve the adoption of item number 6? That is adopted.

The provisional rules of procedure were adopted.

The President: It is proposed that there should be formed a Committee of Experts which will submit a report to the Council as soon as possible. I presume that that will be taken up at the next meeting.

Mr. Gromyko (Union of Soviet Socialist Republics): Do you propose to establish a sub-committee for the consideration of the rules of procedure?

The President: Yes. Each delegation will appoint one representative.

Mr. Gromyko (Union of Soviet Socialist Republics): This idea, I think, is good, but the sub-committee may not be able to present a full draft of the rules of procedure to the next meeting. Is it not necessary for the next meeting?

The President: No.

Badawi Pasha (Egypt): For the time being we have the provisional rules of procedure.

The President: Yes. Do the members of the Council desire to proceed further with the items of the agenda?

Mr. Stettinius (United States of America): I move we adjourn.

The President: I submit to the Council that we now adjourn until a time that will be determined.

The meeting rose at 4:16 p.m.
