Unseoting Plon To Guard Against New Civil Wor

OhAICA 4NdC4Ollo 11dll1 T lQon. ing, N. Y, Oct. 26 - (UP) . The controversial issue of Generalissimo Francisco Francois Spanish dictatorship returned to the forefront to- day in the United Nations General Assembly.
 Top LIN officials said Nor way was set to request a gen. eral debate of the Franco question, along with possible means of unseating Spain's dictator without pushing the Span ish people into a new civil war.
 The subject first was raised in the current Assembly session by Secretary-General Trygve Lie of Norway who suggested Thursday that the 51 nations of the Assembly give guidance" toward the solution of the problem raised by Francos generally condemned government. Lies home country decided to make the opening move.
 To See If They Get Support
 The Norwegian plan was said to provide for semi-formal request today that Spain be placed on the ASSembly's agenda and a more spe- cific move later for Assembly action against Franco if the idea attracts sufficient support.
 Norwegian delegate Halvard M. Lange was one of the four delegates scheduled to speak after the As Sembly convenes at II A. M. EST. for its fifth plenary meeting. The others scheduled to speak were Dr. Felix Nieto Del Rio Chile; c. Abayo- mi CaSsels Liberia and Museyin Ra- zip Baydur Turkey,
 The question marks in the Franco case were supplied by the Russian anf. the Anglo American delegations particularly the former.
 The Soviet government has in- sisted on keeping the case of Fran co Spain on the Security Councils | agenda, where it has rested since the Councils failure to agree on ac- tlon against Franco last Spring. Un- der provisions of the LIN Charter, this prevents the Assembly from making specific recommendations aimed a tthe Spanish government, which has been denounced by most Of the United Nations individually and by the Assembly as whole. Hope to Convince Russians
 The technicality does not ban dis cussion of Franco however, and the Norwegians presumably were hop ing that the discussions would con vince the Russians, along with the Ukrainians and Poles in the Assem- ply, that the Assembly is prepared to take strong action against Fran co. The principal reason Russia has opposed removing the Franco case from the Security Councils docket is said to be a fear that the Assembly would then make a weak gesture against the Spanish govern ment.
 Dr. Oscar Lange of Poland, who shares RuSSia's position on the Franco question, said his delega- tion's attitude would depend upon how the Assembly indicates it will ac' if given free hand.
 The Assembly already, as a result ot its first meeting in London, has barred Spain from membership as | long as Franco reignS.
 The American and British rep- resentatives in the LIN so far have opposed action any stronger than this, on grounds that, a general breaking off of diplomatic relations with Spain or economic sanctions. or any similar moves by the United Nations, might rally the Spanish people around Franco.
 The Norwegian request was ex- pected to be shelved until the rest cf the AsSembly's so-called general debate-the typical round of open- ing Speeches-is finished Tuesday or Wednesday.
 NOel-Baker Reveals His Position
 The first of the big five to be heard from, aside from President Truman's opening-day address to the Assembly, was Britain's acting chief delegate, Air Minister Philip Noel-Baker, who asserted late yes- | terQay CndI.
 l. Britain is completely be-
 hind the United States plan for 1 International control of atomic
 energy-a plan emphatica1ly op-
 posed by Russia.
 2. Russia has been misusing
 the Security Council veto power
 held by the big five under the | LIN charter.
 3. Despite this, the veto for
 mula should not be amended at
 this stage of the UNs existence.
 Noel-Baker hit hard at the Rus sians' role in both the Security Council and the Economic and So- cial Council, charging that in the former the Councils will had been frustrated by a single voice" be- | AF ;oJe aE bA
