United Nations Hall, Flush
 ing, N. Y, Oct. 25 - (UP) =
 Russia abandoned it's fight
 against a United Nations Gen.
 eral Assembly debate of the
 veto question today and said it
 favored frank and open" dis
 cussion of all issues in the LIN
 forum.
 Andrei Vishinsky, Soviet dele
 gate, after offering strong ini-
 tial opposition to letting Aus
 tralian and Cuban motions for veto debate come to the Gen.
 eral Assembly floor, announces
 that Russia would not insist on
 it's proposal to keep them of
 the agenda.
 Vishtnsky made his an-
 nouncement after the United
 States, Britain and China had
 announced that they favored a
 discussion of the veto issue al-
 though not necessarily favoring
 any change in the great power
 veto rights.
 United Nations Hall, Flush ing, N. Y, Oct. 25-(UP)- The United States and Russia today clashed in the United Nations General Assembly Steering Committee over the right of delegates to carry the Battle of the Veto" to the Assembly floor.
 Warren R. Austin, Ameri- can delegate, squarely op' posed an attempt by Andre Vishinsky. Russia, to keep the vets issue of the Assembly floor.
 Vishinsky contended that raising the veto issue might "strike ter. rible blow" at the youthful LIN or. ganization. Austin, however, de- clared 1t seemed important tc have a General Assembly discus sion without any criticism of tht past or any charges over who ts answer the question o1 what is right"
 Seeks Clarification
 "The discussion should be on the level of clarification," Austin said Tt would be happy thing for the people of the world and the Gen. eral Assembly would render a great service to humanity"
 Austin said that the importance of the veto issue had been magni- fled by public discussion and "ap- parent misunderstanding of tho voting principles of the Charter has been overstressed or the veto element"
 Austin was careful to note that the United States was not express ing any opinion on the merits ot the issue-the United States is just as opposed as Russia to any weakening of the veto powers.
 There is no springboard of pub- licity greater than the General As sembly of the UN," Austin said we think it is important to de- feat this motion Vishinsky's motion to ban the veto issue from the As sembly f1oor)"
 Asks Proposals Be Dropped
 Vishinsky demanded that three proposals, one by Australia, ane two by Cuba, to place the veto issue before the Assembly for debate be dropped from the agenda.
 Vishinsky appealed for this actior as a gesture of solidarity" anc said an adverse decision might strike a terrible blow to the young United Nations Organization which has she serious responsibility o. maintaining peace"
 The agenda contained thre' items directed against the great power veto and Soviet Deputy For eign Minister Andrei A. VishinSky has served notice he will insist thai they be dropped.
