U Thant is Secretary-General.

BR comments "... that unless there is a radical and immediate alteration in the world situation, nuclear war is inevitable." BR asks U Thant to consider "... a balancing committee of non-aligned powers to suggest solutions to the various world problems which the two nuclear blocs seem unable to resolve."

Those in favour of the proposal include Rev. Michael Scott, Jawaharlal Nehru (Prime Minister of India), Julius Nyerere (President of Tanzania), and Kenneth Kaunda (President of Zambia).

BR also mentions he is sending U Thant some "recent writings and speeches, and some documents on the work of the Committee of 100".
