The four Western powers at the London dis- armament talks have proposed to Russia that an international control organ must have "full responsibility for supervising and guaranteeing effective observance of all the provisions" of a world disarmament treaty.

This was contained in a joint resolution by Canada, France, Britain and the United States on April 21 to the London disarmament conference.

It was published by the State Department', here today along with all the other documents submitted to the London talks between February 25 and May
