Russia Accepts
Regional Plan
In Principle
Conference Hopes
For Early Accord
On Controversy
BY GOULD LINCOLN,
Star Staff Cnrrasnondant

SAN FRANCISCO, May 49,
The United Nations conference
received from Russia today q
counter-proposal which raised
hopes for an early settlement OF
the regional arrangements con-
troversy.
The Russians accepted the prin.
ciple that regional groups of nations
like the inter-American republics
have the right to take measures OF
self-defense under world organiza-
tion to safeguard peace.
The proposal was presented to
the Big Five foreign ministers by
Russian Ambassador Andrei Gro
myko, who had been awaiting in
structions from Moscow. There ap-
peared to be little difference except
for language between the Moscow
formula and the American-spon-
sored proposals which have been &C
cepted by the Latin American dele
cations.
The Soviet daft was said to raise
no objection to use Of the phrase
collective security.
Situation Encouraging.
Following a meeting of the Biz
Five-the United States, Great Brit.
ain, Russia, China and France-the
situation was described as "enccur.
aging" A meeting of the American
delegation to consider the Russians
has been called for noon today and
a meeting of the Big Five will be
held later in the day, when the
Americans possibly will have a COM
promise proposition ready for SUBJ
mission.
Although there was no predic-
ton that the conference committee
would take action on the regional
question Monday, conference lead
ers were hopeful this course will be
followed.
The proposals, based on a formula
worked out by the United States
delegation in concert with the Bis
Five, were agreed to by the British
Chinese and French a week ago.
The Russian proposals are said tc
be in the nature of amendments tc
the United States draft. The Rus.
sian language was said to follow
closely the phraseology used by
the French in an amendment SUBJ
mitted previously.
Essential to Ratification.
The acceptance of the regional
arrangements amendments by the
conference is considered essential il
the American republics, including
the United States, are to ratify the
charter. They have been so drafted
as to preserve the overall author.
ity of the international organiza.
tion and at the same time permit
regional agencies to operate quickly
in time of crisis.
Once this hurdle has been passed
it is expected the conference will
move much more rapidly toward
the completion of the charter.

tance is the trusteeships chapter
