     1.  The Govenant of the League off Nations should
          Be terminated as of the date the protocol becomes
          effective.
 
     2.  The continuing functions of the League, with
          exception of those related to the Permanent
          Court of International Justice, should be trans- 
          ferred to the new organization, subject to the 
          provisions of the charter of the new interna-
          tional organization.
 
     3.  All archives and records of the League should 
          be transferred to the new organization.
 
     4.  All the rights, titles, and interests of the 
          League in property of any kind should be 
          transferred to the new international organiza-
          tion, subject to the fulfillment of existing 
          obligations and commitments.
 
     5.  The protocol should be open for signature by all

          the moment of entry into force of the basic 
          instrument of the new organization. These 
          parties should thereupon. Proceed with the 
          liquidation of the League.
 
       The suggestion of such a protocol assumes that in the 
absence of any provision in the Covenant providing for its 
own termination, common consent or a general consensus, 
and not unanimous consent, is adequate to the purpose.
 
        It would be desirable, nevertheless, to secure 
unanimous consent if possible. Every effort to that 
end should be made. Among the states members of the 
League but which would not at the outset become members
of the Organization are three enemy states, Bulgaria, 
Finland, and Thailand, and two states not now represented 
by recognized governments, Albania and Austria, which
 
                                                 would
