The provisional rules of procedure of the U.N. Security Council, as amended through 1946, appear in U.N. doc. S/96; the one subsequent amendment appears

in U.N. doc. S/1457 and Corr. 1 (as approved in U.N. doc. S/PV.468).

The Headquarters Agreement between the United States and the United Nations provides that Federal, State, and local authorities shall afford any necessary protection to persons officially attending U.N. sessions except while they are on U.Ñ. premises. This includes, of course, their attending the sessions without impediment. The Federal Government also has the ultimate responsibility to see that these obligations are met. Since these are foreign representatives, the State Department will, as usual, coordinate the efforts of the various Federal, State, and local officials involved in this matter.

It should be clearly understood that, in the absence of an official invitation to visit the United States, the presence of officials of other governments in connection with United Nations business in no way either requires or implies approval by the United States Government of their decision to come here.

Nonetheless, such foreign officials, regardless of the nature of their governments or the policies of those governments, as the consequence of the relations of their governments to the United Nations have the right to proceed about the business of the United Nations without let or hindrance. This does not mean that they are necessarily entitled to travel within the United States outside the immediate area of the United Nations headquarters.

These persons must, however, be able to travel to and from their place of residence in Manhattan and the United Nations headquarters building. The security measures taken by this Government, as set forth in the aide memoire I have referred to, are designed to facilitate this travel.

In view of the foregoing, certain of these foreign officials, therefore, have been informed that they are expected not to travel outside Manhattan Island except as may be necessary in connection with their arrival and departure.*

Citizens of the United States, as well as all other persons who may be within the confines of the United States either as permanent residents or visitors, will therefore, it is hoped, comport themselves in a dignified and restrained fashion with regard to all persons coming to this country as official representatives to the United Nations and thus contribute to the best of their ability to the maintenance of public order."

'Similar aide-mémoire were delivered on Sept. 10 to the Albanian and Hungarian Missions at the United Nations. The text of the aide-mémoire to the Hungarian Mission appears in the Department of State Bulletin, Oct. 3, 1960, p. 521; the text of the aide-mémoire to the Albanian Mission was not published. The Cuban Embassy in Washington was informed on Sept. 14 of similar restrictions to be imposed in connection with Prime Minister Castro's attendance at the United Nations (see ibid., p. 515).

"A formal statement by President Eisenhower reinforcing this request for public order was issued on Sept. 17 by the White House (Camp David, Md.); text ibid., pp. 523–524.
