Allies Closing Aachen Escape Gap
Tentative Peace Plan ReuedLed

Washington, Oct. SAP The
United States, Britain, Russia ani
China announced today a tentative
and incomplete plan for converting
the United Nations into a peace or
ganization backed by powerful
armed forces, including special air
attachments capable OF lightning
blows against any future aggres-
sors.
Authority 10 use these forces
would be vested in United Ma
tons Security Council" Of IL men,
bers. OF which the Big Four and
France would hold permanent
seats.
The forces would be contributed
by all nations, including the United
States, under special agreements
to use them as the council might
direct. This proposal appears GER
tain to provide one Of the principal
points for debate in this country.
The announcement came as Unit
ed Nations diplomats foresaw the
possibility OF an early four-power
meeting at the highest level 10
tighten war-end relations and to
complete the security organiza-
tons blueprint.
Air Forces
While the plan laid down by the
four nations provides for air forces
TO be Immediately available" and
for all others to be supplied at thu
call" OF the council, one authority
said It still was to be decided how
this would be accomplished in this
country.
This official spokesman, who
would not be quoted by name, de-
clined to state specifically that the
United States would have to make
binding agreements so that 1t
would not be necessary to go to
Congress each time force was
called for.
The security plan, which also
provides detailed proposals for
peaceful settlement Of disputes, Is
tentative because 1t has not been
formally accepted by any OF the
governments involved. Drawn up az
the Dumbarton oaks conferences
which ended Saturday, 1t was is
sued in textual form here by Sec
rotary OF State Hull.
Sober Warning
Soberly Hull warned in an &C
companying statement that the
road to establishment OF the pro-
posed organization will be long
and difficult" adding that
much work remains to be done be.
fore a set of completed proposals
can be laid down for a full.dress,
United Nations conference TO
bring the organization into being.
Under Secretar yof State Stettin-
Jus. chairman Of the Dumbarton
oaks sessions. said in his report to
Hull that none Of the gaps in the
plan is "in any sense insuperable. "
The chief unsolved problem is
how the council should vote on
questions Of aggression. Russia
contended that the big powers
should retain the right to veto any
decisions involving charges against
them. The United States and Brit
ain argued against any such veto
AS matter OF high policy, the
issue may have to go to a meeting
OF Premier Stain, President Roos-
evelt, Prime Minister Churchill and
Generalissimo Chang Kai Shek.
Such a meeting in the near future
is regarded by competent authori'
ties as possibility even though
Russia still is not at war with
Japan. They say that in the interest
of perfecting a world peace design
Stain may be willing for the first
time to participate in talks with
Chang as we'll as with Roosevelt
and Churchill.
The blueprint calls for this ma
chinery:
1. A general international organ
ization to be known as The Unit
ed Nations" Each OF the agencies
proposed would be part OF this or
ganization.
Q. General assembly. All members
OF the organization would belong 10
| the assembly, each having one
vote. The assembly would debate
broad problems OF peace and secur'
ity, control OF ornaments, and the
like. II could admit or expel mem
bers and make recommendation
for action to the security council
by two.thirds vote. 1t would meet

3. Security council. The United
States. Britain, Russia and China
land, in due course, France would
compose permanently five OF the
II members. The assembly would
elect the other six for two-year
terms. BY a system OF voting stili
undecided the council would have
mower to order the use OF force,
economic measures, political isola.
ton or any other steps considered
necessary to put down an aggressor
state. First however II would try
peaceful means such as negotiation
and arbitration. II could recon-
mend to the assembly the sus-
pension or expulsion of any mem

ciples OF peace and security.
