“I regret to say that what we have seen in these past ten months has not given cause for satisfaction. From where we stand there is one highly visible thread woven throughout the pattern of international relations in the economic, social and political spheres. It is a kind of selective and arrogant disdain by most of the great Powers towards the practice of genuine international co-operation. 159. Nowhere is this more evident than in connexion with the question of South West Africa.”

“157. Mr. President, it is a great pleasure and honour for me to associate the Barbados delegation with previous speakers who have congratulated you on your appointment to the high office of President of this twenty-second session of the General Assembly. I wish at the same time to record our deep appreciation of the tremendous contribution to the cause of world peace made by your predecessor, Mr. Pazhwak of Afghanistan, in the course of three strenuous sessions since September last year. 158. It is a little less than a year since I had the honour to address this Assembly on the occasion of my country's admission to full membership in the United Nations. Barbados is the baby of the Organization. However, independent countries, unlike some members of the animal kingdom, are born with their eyes wide open.”
