Headline U.N. Commission on Human Rights

Caption Description The Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the first document in history to set up an international standard of rights for all mankind, was approved last fall by the U.N. General Assembly in Paris. But the Declaration at present is simply a standard for the nations to achieve by individual action, it is not binding. U.N., however, is already taking the first steps to write the Declaration into international law. The Commission on Hunan Rights is now shaping up the concrete articles of an international Convention on human rights which, when finished, and approved by the General Assembly, will be the world's first binding instrument to provide for the protection of the rights of individuals, everywhere under international law.
The Commission Chairman, Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt (right) with Mrs. Hansa Mehta of India.
