Abstract
THE recently published draft proposals for an Educational and Cultural Organization of the United Nations (London: H.M. Stationery Office. 2d. net) have received the welcome due to a document answering to one of the first needs of the hour. Ever since 1942, discussions among Ministers of Education or their equivalent in the United Nations have taken place, and the organization now proposed has developed therefrom. In these discussions, Mr. R. A. Butler took an active part from the first. The draft proposals will form the basis of discussion at a conference to be opened in London on November 1. That conference will be one of the first results of the San Francisco deliberations, and the organization in question will be the first "specialized agency" to come into being under the relevant clause of the United Nations Charter.
