On international Peace
BY the Associated Press.
Implying a belief that congress
sional postwar planners have not
quite rung the bell yet, Chairman
Connally Of the Senate Foreign Re-
lations Committee predicted today
that his group eventually would
draft its own resolution.
The Texan spoke as hackers of a
resolution by Representative Full
bright. Democrat, of Arkansas
pressed for House action on his plan
to commit the United States to take
a part in preserving the peace when
war ends.
Senator Connally termed the Full
bright resolution cryptic" in its
terms, but said that II it passes the
House 1t will be considered along
with eight other proposals already
before a Senate subcommittee.
He left little room for doubt, how
ever, that the subcommittee would
disregard, among others, resolu-
ton by Senators Ball OF Minnesota,
Burton of Ohio, Republicans; Hatch
of New Mexico and Hill Of Alabama,
Democrats, calling for organization
of the United Nations into a per-
manent peace-preserving group.
Up to Subcommittee.
This question involves much more
than writing something on piece of
paper" Senator Connally said in an
interview. 1T is believed that after
the summer recess of Congress the
subcommittee will recommend
resolution to the full committee. 1t
will probably be a resolution drafted
by the subcommittee In form Of its
own
The Fulbright proposal, which
Chairman Bloom Of the House For
eign Affairs Committee said he
hoped to bring before the House next
week, would put Congress on record
as "favoring the creation Of appro-
pirate international machinery with
power adequate to establish and to
maintain a just and lasting peace,
and as favoring participation by the
United States therein"
While Senator Ball said he re-
garded this as "a step in the right
direction" he indicated that he and
others interested in pledging this
country to active participation in
postwar organization to preserve the
peace by force. If necessary, want
more specific language.
There have been indications, how
ever, that any resolution reported
out by the Senate committee is likely
to be general In its terms, probably
going no further than the Fulbright
proposal in its attempts to put
Congress on record.
Hull Advises Caution.
Recent efforts by some OF the
supporters of the Bau-Burton- Hill
Hatch proposal to obtain an in
dorsement from Secretary of State
Hull were reported to have been
unsuccessful. Mr.. Hull was repre-
sented as cautioning against precipi-
tate action.
Meanwhile an impromptu House
debate on the Fulbright resolution
was touched of yesterday when
Representative Sumner, Republican,
of Illinois called it "the first step
toward surrendering our constitu-
tional Government to super world
government"
Representative Fish, Republican,
of New York, ranking Republican
on the House Rules Committee, re-
torted: II want this resolution. 1t
commits us to nothing but will
ingness to discuss just and lasting
peace"
The way it reads" Miss Sumner
told the House, 1T would lead to
setting up a world organization, and
that means world army. How can
you believe this resolution would
not incite to revolt?"
Vorys Praises Resolution.
Representative Colmer, Democrat,
of Mississippi, remarked that he was
amazed at friends bordering on
isolationism" supporting the reso-
luton. Representative Rankin, DEM
ocrat, of Mississippi interposed that
I'VE want the boys who are doing
the fighting. and not the star-gazers
who are doing the talking, to de-
eide what kind of peace we're going
to have"
Representative Vorys, Repub-
lican, Of Ohio, said the resolution
will prove to be historic, in my
judgment"
1T is not just a pious generality"
Mr.. Vorys declared. "On the other
hand, it is not a commitment. It
Is not pledge. 1t is merely state
ment of congressional preference in
