1. Introduction A conference was initiated by the US President Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1944, in which all the allied powers as well as some neutral governments convened at Chicago to discuss the future of civil aviation. The expectations from this conference, which came to be known as the Chicago Convention, were high even though the timing of the convention wasn’t perfect. The Chicago Convention proposed the formation of the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO), which later became a part of the UN in 1947. The ICAO contains universal rules covering airspace sovereignty, aircraft registration and airworthiness, and global Standards and Recommended Practices (SARPs) for technical and safety harmonization records of the national …show more content…
Fifty-four countries attended the Chicago conference and although it did not quite achieve all of its goals, it did provide the groundwork for the founding of the ICAO in 1947. The Soviet Union was invited to the conference but did not attend. Many of the countries which the Allies were at war – Germany, Japan, Austria, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, Italy and Finland – were not invited and were not represented but it was the absence of the USSR which was mainly felt as the USSR represented the largest land territory of the world and were expected to play an important role in after-war arrangements. This negative attitude of the USSR was perhaps a sign of the “cold-war” mistrust and isolation and that the secretive USSR was not ready to open its air space to international cooperation. The official reason given for the non-participation though was that among the nations taking part in the conference, there were some countries like Switzerland, Spain, and Portugal which for a number of years have carried on a hostile policy towards the Soviet Union. 3. Outcomes of the Convention The atmosphere of the conference was one of uncertainty and some anxiety, which was felt by all delegations towards the attempts of the US to impose its
London Conference (1930) – Conference held in Great Britain and attended by the United States, Japan, Italy, and France. Representatives convened to discuss the treaties of the Washington Conference. The group decided to extend certain provisions of the Five-Power Treaty, such as the limitation of aircraft carriers. The group, with the exception of France and Italy, agreed on a new ratio to use to define the number of battleships in each country's navy. Also called the London Naval Conference.
“[Brenda] didn't know, what to throw away and what to keep. She wrapped the baby up and threw him in the trash heap. I guess she thought she'd get away. Wouldn't hear the cries. She didn't realize. How much the little baby had her eyes, now the baby's in the trash heap balling.” A 1991 song “Brenda’s Got a Baby” by rapper Tupac Shakur vividly illustrates the harsh reality of many poor young girls dealing with unwanted pregnancy. Abortion is a controversial topic that has been around for decades with many groups of passionate activist for both stances on abortion; pro-life and pro-choice. Newborn life is a sacred and a valuable gift made possible by the most important figures of societies, mothers. There are many practical and brilliant abortion

The last conference to happen was the Potsdam Conference in Potsdam, Germany to negotiate the end of World War II. This conference however had a change of leaders. While it was still Joseph Stalin and Winston Churchill, Franklin Roosevelt had passed away several months previously and Harry Truman was the new President of the United States. This conference was a continuance of the Yalta conference in splitting up the countries and to decide what was to be done with Germany now that the war was over. While they thought they had closed the deal with what would happen to, Germany with Roosevelt, Truman had changed his mind. What they had previously agreed on didn’t work for Truman so they had to come up with something else. The alternatives that
Because of the bad conditions in World War II, people wanted to avoid a future world war. Therefore, leaders of Britain, China, the US and the USSR discussed the details of a post-war organization.

The peace conference just happened to occurred on January 1919. The ‘’big four’’ (which happens to be Brittan, France, Italy and the United States of America) just seemed to just argue a lot during the peace conference. The United States of America wanted to refuse all allied powers. At first, all italy wanted was Adriatic, but later on they changed their minds. A weakness in all of this was that Russia wanted to join in on this but nobody let them join. They excluded all the central powers all together. All they wanted was Germany to do strict

The "Huge Four" commanded the procedures that prompted the detailing of the Treaty of Versailles, a settlement that finished World War I. The Treaty of Versailles explained the bargains came to at the meeting.

Their wants vary from positive to negative outcomes regarding to peace. After World War I, the goals of the US, French, British, Italians, and the Germans at the Paris Peace Conference in 1919 all have similarities and differences when compared and contrasted.
In examining the history of aviation in the U.S. and the development of the airlines, it is clear that the Federal Government played a vital role in the development of both. Historical records clearly show that this involvement by the Federal Government was critical in getting them established and in helping to develop them into the globally dominant enterprises they are today. Furthermore, it can be easily argued that U.S. aviation as a whole, and the airlines in particular, would not be where they are today without this direct involvement by the Federal Government and some of the very specific actions that it has taken to keep them relevant and competitive during the most dire of times. The Federal Government ensured that U.S. aviation and its airlines would develop and achieve a worldwide leadership role by becoming involved in three major ways: through funding, legislation, and policy setting.
