Extract

The Atomic Energy Commission reports that it has reached an impasse.

In almost two years of work, the Commission has accomplished much and has succeeded in making clear the essentials of a plan for the control of atomic energy, in fulfillment of the objectives of the resolution of the General Assembly of 24 January 1946.2 Nevertheless, it considers that it cannot now prepare a draft treaty “incorporating its ultimate proposals” as urged by the resolution3 of the Security Council of 10 March 1947.
