stability, and (2) the maximum contribution to the orderly
development of general international order.

remain unchanged, (2) that the water-boundary between the 
Netherlands and Germany be moved to the main channel of the 
Ems Estuary and that, at further consideration be given to any 
Netherlends claims on German territory as compensation for 
war damage, (3) that the 1920-1940 boundary between Belgium 
and Germany be restored, (4) that Alsace-Lorraine be returned 
to France, (5) that the pre-1938 Austro-German frontier, 
with a slight rectification, be restored, (6) that the pre-
Munich frontiers between Czechoslovakia and Germany be in 
principle restores, subject to any minor rectifications 
which the Czechoslovak Government might wish to propose, 
and (7) that Poland acquire East Prussia (except for the 
Koenigsberg area), the Free City of Danzig, German Upper 
Silesia, and Pomerania.
 
        It is recommended that although this Government should 
not oppose a general transfer of the German minorities from 
neighboring states, it should, wherever possible, favor a 
selective transfer. Such action, if carried out gradually, 
in an orderly manner, and under international supervision, 
would contribute to better relations between the states
concerned.
