SAN FRANCISCO, June 4.-There
often are laughs in the weighty
debates behind closed doors of
United Nations Conference commit
tees.
Delegates reported one committee
had under consideration a draft
amendment written in English.
They continued;
II cannot approve this draft!"
said a British delegate. The English
is abominable."
But it was written by Mr.. Eden
himself" another committee men,
ber interjected, referring to the
British foreign minister.
The amendment was approved
without further discussion.
A Liberian delegate had waited
long for his turn to speak. Finally
given the floor, he began: What
was I going to talk about? Really
don't remember. But I will say
something"
Cries of protest came from weary
colleagues.
"On thinking it over" the Liberian
quickly commented, Il guess I won't
speak at all"

position, Russia maintained there

discussion of an inf1ammatory ma

more members of the Big Five, might

Five impossible in later stages.
The Russian statement also point
ed out that the voting formula for

tions, in which all members we're
entitled to a veto. In the new char
ter. unanimity is required on the
part of only five.
The Yalta formula says that pro-
cedural questions in the council
shall be settled by vote of any
seven of its II members. Questions
involving action intended to help
maintain peace also would be de-
cided by a vote of seven members,
but all the Big Five would have to

that Russia would lose in such
showdown. 1t would then be up
to her to decide whether to ap-

or withdraw.
Aside from the controversy over
the voting formulas Interpretation,
the Big Five have made good prog

amendments offered to other parts
of the charter. When the Big Five
resumed its meetings Friday, there
were II points to be passed on.
Fourteen of these have been sue

these the Big Five are ready to

The three on which agreement

Hodges moved east to Chaudfon-
taine, just east of Liege-saved as
Gen. Ridgeways forces went into
the breach.
Discussing the victory over the
Germans, he said:
"One of the prime factors in our
great victory in Europe was the
leadership in the field of Gen. Omar
Nelson Bradley. No one who has
watched his work in three cam

escape the hope that his high mill
tary talent will be employed to
shorten the war in the Pacific.
