UN Secretary Scores Use Os Secret Parleys Warns By* Passing Os United Nations May Weaken U. N. UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. (INS) --’Ji N. Secretary General Dag Hammarskjold reminded the world’s big powera today that secret conferences like Berlin and Geneva can weaken the global organizr.tlon unless the latter "is kept in the picture.” 1 In his annual, report to the general assembly, Hammerekjold wrapped that criticism around a salute to the truce in Korea and Indo-China. He also praised the Geneva conference for seating “government lenders of all those nations with the greatest power over the issues of war and peace." It was an obvious reference to Red China. The Swedish U.N. boas frowned on U.S. insistence during the Guatemalan revolt that the organization of American states handle the problem instead of the security council. But he carefully avoided mentioning by name either the U.S. or the issue involved at the time. in generally striking out against the by-peeslng of U.N. Important international conferences, Hammarskjold warned' that "the balance to be struck here muM~be struck with care.” He deplored the fact that U. sity of coexistence is as yet not fully recognized” and prophesied “the increasing danger of destruction will sooner or later force us out of a balance of power system into one of true and universal cooperation.” In commenting on the drift away from U.N. in big-power talks, he said: w "In the short view, other approaches than those provided by U. N. machinery may seem more expedient and convenient but in the long run they may yet be inadvisable.” In that vein, the report continued: “To fail to use U. N. machinery on those matters for which the governments have given to the organization a special or primary responsibility under the charter, or to improvise other arrangements without overriding practical and may tend to weaken the position of UN and reduce its influence and effectiveness . . . "For example, the importance of regional arrangements in the maintenance of peacr is fully recognized in the charter and the appropriate use of such arrangements is encouraged. But in those cases where resort to such arrangements is chosen in the first instance, that choice should not be permitted to cast any doubt on the ultimate responsibility of U. N. Similarly, a policy giving full scope to the proper role of regional agencies can and, should at the same time fully preserve the right of a member nation* to a hearing under the charter ...” Among other points made in the renort were: Disarmament: “Tn the event of another world war, each side now faces the almost certain prospect of receiving mortal wounds. This add® a new dimension to the problem of collective security and disarmament. I’trust new approaches to those problems will be opened before us where now there seems to be only a blank waH."
