  A model is presented for the high field phase diagram of (TMTSF)$_2$ClO$_4$,
taking into account the anion ordering, which splits the Fermi surface in two
bands. For strong enough field, the largest metal-SDW critical temperature
corresponds to the N=0 phase, which originates from two intraband nesting
processes. At lower temperature, the competition between these processes puts
at disadvantage the N=0 phase vs. the N=1 phase, which is due to interband
nesting. A first order transition takes then place from the N=0 to N=1 phase.
We ascribe to this effect the experimentally observed phase diagrams.
