.UNO Debates
Franco Rule

Continued flom Page u
troops in Indonesia threatened the
peace. There were indications that
the Council would drop the case
quietly.
Kuzna v. Kiselec struck the key
note of eastern European debate on
the Spanish question with the We
hement assertion:
We must destroy the last rem
nant Of FasciSm in order to con-
solidate the peace and security. We
have the right to that security"
Boosts Democratic Elements
Emphasizing that the military
victory was not complete until po-
litical victory over the last vestiges
of Fascism had been won Kiselev
said Franco must not receive any
support from the United Nations,
and the Spanish democratic move
merit should rely on UNO help.
Georges Bidault, French foreign
minister. opened the debate on the
Spanish resolution. He voiced hope
that the Spanish people soon will
recover liberty and democracy.
Two Duchacek Of Czechoslovakia
denounced the Franco regime as
the child OF two criminals and
called for a clearcut break with it
by the United Nations.
Recalls Previous Plan
The resolution said:
The assembly recalls that al the
San Francisco Conference adopted
a resolution according to which par
agraph two of chapter three Of the
United Nations charter will not APP
ply to nations whose regimes have
been installed with the aid Of the
military forces of the countries
which have fought against the Uni
ted Nations so long as these govern
ments remain in power
The assembly recalls thta at the
Potsdam Conference the United
Kingdom, the United States and the
Soviet Union governments declared
that they would not support appli-
cation for admission to the United
Nations of the present Spanish
government which having been
founded with the support Of the
Axis powers does not possess by rea-
sons Of its origins its nature, its rec
ords and its close association with
aggressor states the qualifications
necessary to justify IS admission
The assembly. in placing its seal
on these two declarations, recon-
mends that the United Nations
members take into account their
spirit and their letter in conduct
ing their future relations with
Spain"
. Norway Amends Bill
Erik Colban Of Norway proposed
strengthening the resolution by
making the last paragraph read
"act in accordance with" the San
Francisco and Potsdam Declara-
tons instead of take into account.
The Norwegian proposal was adopt

Porter informed of the reports,
said they we're very interesting
/ but that he had no comment.
There was no confirmation al the
White House or from Snyder or
Bowles. Both men were summoned
to the White House yesterday but
they refused to discuss their con-
ferences with the President.
Urged by Democrats
Ii was understood, however, that
the transfer of economic authority
within the Administration was
urged by influential Democratic
leaders alarmed at the tagging re-
conversion pace
The shift. If It does materialize,
would be a tremendous victory for
the blunt, hard-nitting Bowles who
has held out for a semi-rigid price
line. Snyder. on the other hand,
has been more concerned with pro-
duction than prices
There has been friction between
Bowles and Snyder over the Ad-
miniStration's wage-price policies
for some time. But it took the ma
tionwide steel strike to bring 1t 20
head.
They disagreed sharply on how
much price relief the steel indus
try would need TO pay the l8 l-2
cent hourly wage increase urged by
the President 70 end the walkout
OF 10000 CLIO Steelworkers.
Snyder Favored More
The steel walkout, now three
weeks old, has threatened 20 shut
down the nations reconverSion in
dustries completely and yesterday
forced Mr. Truman TO cancel a
scheduled vacation in Florida
Bowles originally favored a price
increase Of s.. so ton for steel on
the basis OF an OPA survey of the
induStrys costs for the last three
months of l945. Snyder favored a
much larger increase, If necessary,
to get the mills back into produc-
ton.
Bowles now is reported to believe
that both labor's demand for higher
wages and industry's clamor for
price relief can be met by permit
ting an average rise Of percent in
the cost OF living. That would
push living costs about 80 percent
over Jan. !, 1891.
Formula Delayed
Treasury Secretary Fred NJ. Vim
son ana Secretary OF State James
F. Byrnes both ale reported to have
supported Bowles in his tight
against Snyder.
Formulation OF new wage
price formula for ending the steel
and other major strikes blocking re-
conversion might be delayed slight
ly If BoXles were given the nation S
economic reins since his ideas dill
fer from those Of Sny der.
An authoritative White House
source said good progress had
been made in efforts 70 end the
steel strike and that Mr.. Truman
was hopeful for an early settlement.
This official said that negotia-
tons were going forward" and
that the union and the U. S. Steel
Corporation were not very far
apart"
1T looks as II they are getting
closer together right along he
said, and so the outlook is rather
hopeful"
