Jessup served as assistant secretary-general of the [[United Nations Refugee and Rehabilitation Administration]] (UNRRA) conference in 1943 and the [[Bretton Woods Conference]] in 1944. He was a member of the American delegation to the San Francisco United Nations charter conference in 1945. He was also the United States representative on the fifteen-man United Nations committee of jurists that had drafted the [[World Court]] statute. Continuing as a technical expert and advisor to various important UN commissions, Jessup prepared the State Department's "White Paper" on China. Written at the time when the [[Chinese Communist Party]] were overrunning the mainland, this report praised the CCP and condemned the [[Kuomintang]] forces. Jessup later became one of the early advocates for the admission of [[Peoples Repuiblic ofChina]] to the United Nations.

[[President Truman]] appointed Jessup as United States delegate to the United Nations in 1951. When the appointment came before the Senate, however, it was not approved because of Jessup's openly pro-Communist record. President Truman circumvented the Senate action by assigning Jessup to the United Nations on an "interim appointment." <ref>''Hearings before the Senate subcommittee investigating the Institute of Pacific Relations'' </ref>
