Essay On The United Nations Organizations.The hope of the world lies in the United nations Organization. It alone can save the world from the horrors of a Thermo-nuclear war. If the U.NO. goes the way of the League of Nations, the world will go down the gap of a volcano. It will burn and burst like a big bomb.

The U.N.0 was born after the Second World War on 24th October 1945 after the signing of the Atlantic Charter. Every year 24th October is celebrated as the U.N. Day throughout the world.

The U.N.0 was a committee of nations. The original need was for a world body to strive and keep peace in the world after the end of the Second World War. The brains behind the big move were the Big Three --- Roosevelt, Churchill and Stalin. a conference was called at San Francisco which was attended by all the Allied Powers. It prepared a charter of international peace --- the Atlantic Charter. Ironically enough. the Atlantic Charter was hammered home on the Pacific coast of San Francisco!

The first committee of the U.N.O. was the Security Council. It had five permanent members -- the U.S.A., Russia, United Kingdom. France and Nationalist China --- who were equally vested with the right of veto over any question, so that unless and until all these five Powers agreed upon a question, it could not be carried through in the Security Council. That precedent continues right up to now. Only' that China is not the Communist China represented there, but the China of Chiang Kai-shek in Formosa.

The seating of Communist China and the unseating of Formosa has been one of the most burning topics in the U.N.O. The other units of the U.N.O. are the General assembly. the Economic and Social Council, the International Court of Justice and Trusteeship Council. Each member-nation is represented on the General Assembly but the Security Council has only 11 members of which the five are permanent and the rest are elected by the General Assembly by rotation.

Another wings is the International Court of Justice appointed by the General Assembly at The Hague. One of the most popular wings of the U.N.0, is U.N.E.S.C.O. (United Nations Education. Scientific and Cultural organization) which is headquartered at Paris. The U.N.O. itself has its headquarters at New York.
The U.N.0 shares great responsibilities without having equally great powers.

It has done a solid job in Korea, Indo China. Suez and the Congo in preventing major international conflicts and maintaining peace and order in the afflicted countries. Pakistani troops have played a great part in all these theatres of conflict and clash. In other fields, the U.N.0 means freedom from ignorance and disease also. It takes care of the handicapped children throughout the world. Now it has more than one hundred nations as its members. Its secretariat is in New York.



The head of the U.N.O. is U Than. Burmese national. Each member-nation contributes its share of the expenses of the U.N.O. -- the big powers, however, pay more than the small nations. It has been proposed that the U.N.O. should have an army of its own and it should also be entrusted with legislative powers for the whole world. But this dream is still to be realized. The U.N.O. has become a hot-bed of politics. Only the sanity in the world leaders can save this organisations as well as the humanity.
