 "The real issue" Koo said, "is the rule of unanimity which the perma- nent members of the Security Council are entitled to invoke in making any important decision" Aimed At Britain
 Ostensibly aimed at Britain, the Egyptians denunciation also was a slap at the presence of American forces in such places as China, Latin America and Iceland-an issue which Soviet Russia has threatened to raise in the Assembly this session.
 A Soviet request for discussion of the presence of Allied troops in countries other than the former enemy states is on the Assembly's tentative agenda.
 The Egyptian delegate urged the Assembly to give immediate atten- ton to the principle that mo nego- tiations may be undertaken and no concession gained between soVer- eign nations as long as one is eX- ercising pressure on the other by the open or latent menace of its forces"
 It was learned that the United States has drafted proposal for more discreet" use of the veto power, especially by Soviet Russia.
 Details are being kept secret for the present but it was understood that Austin would plead for reten- tion of the present voting procedure provided in the LIN charter. The speculation is that the American plan will propose alternative steps within the scope of the Charter to the application of the veto. These steps would be in keeping with the intent of the San Francis co Conference creating the LIN that the veto right be Subordinated to, a rule of unanimity among the five permanent Council members.
 Drafts Speech Over Weekend
 Austin spent the weekend draft ing his speech. He was still work ing at it. today. When it is com pleted, it undoubtedly will be sub- mitted to Secretary of State James F. Byrnes for final approval or pos sible revision.
 Meanwhile, Russia's threatened denunciation in the Assembly of the presence of American troops in such places as China and Latin America seemed imminent and American delegates began discussing their possible stand.
 The U. S. delegation called a huddle in advance of today's Il A. M. (EST) plenary session of the 51-nation parliament to talk over the Russian proposal for Assembly discussion of the presence of Allied forces and the existence of bases in so-called friendly countries. No decisions will be made, however, until the delegation has received the advice of Secretary ByrneS,
 Does Not Take In Russians
 The proposal. once discarded by the JN Security Council, was dl- rected at British troops in places like Egypt, Greece and Trans-Jor- dania as well as at the U. s. Ma rines in China and American out posts in Latin America and Ice land. Since the Russian proposal applies only to friendly countries, it would not encompass Russian forces in former enemy states like Hungary, Rumania and Bulgaria.
 The Assembly was ct for it's fourth day of general debate and the first speeches of the session by delegates from the Soviet sphere. Jan Masaryk of Czechoslovakia; pr. Oscar Lange of Poland and Kuzma Kisilev of White Russia were on the list of 10 chief delegates slated to address the body during the day. Two of the Big Five delegates also scheduled their opening speeches Dr. " K. Wellington Roo of China and Alexandre Parodi of France.
 The opening round of oratory, of- fcially termed the general debate, promised to run well over the four day period allotted to it by Secre- tary- General Trygve Lie and his aides. Lie threatened to request night session Tuesday and Wednes- day to permit the Assembly to ap- prove it's 53-point agenda Thurs day and set in motion its six work ing. committees.
