1 Concerning the “ Belgian thesis,”according to which Ch. XI of the Charter should apply to all groups and territories, regardless of where they are situated, which have not yet attained self-government, see Kunz, “Chapter XI of the United Nations Charter in Action,” 48 A.J.I.L. 103-110, at 108 (1954).

2 In U. N. discussions, the words “salt water fallacy” have frequently been used to characterize the prevailing thought that Ch. XI should apply only to territories separated by oceans from the metropolitan countries, and not to contiguous territories, even though such territories do not enjoy self-government and may, in fact, be governed as if they were colonies.
