Little Assembly Posi-
From Outside Of u. n.
By the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Nov. 14.-The
United States is in the market to-
day for top-notch man to repre-
sent this country on the United
Nations Little Assembly"
The full U. N. Assembly last night
approved, Il to 6, the creation of a
|year-round sitting OF the U. NJ, tech
nically known as the interim COM
mittee."
Soviet Russia and the five other
nations in the Soviet group declared
they would not serve on it, but the
majority decided to go ahead in the
face of that boycott.
High Ranking Person Sought.
Authoritative sources said the
United States definitely wants a
high-ranking man to sit for it on
the Little Assembly" This member
will not be drawn from the pres
ent American mission to the U. N.
headed by Warren R. Austin, 1t was
said. He will be chosen independ-
entity of that mission and will not
have any duties connected with II
except the Little Assembly.
The idea behind this procedure,
| 1t was said, would be to free the
American representative from all
other U. N. duties which would con-
flict with sittings of the Little
Assembly"
The Assembly outlined these
duties for the Little Assembly:
/. To report to the full Assembly
on such matters as that group shall
refer to it.
2. To consider and report its views
to the Assembly on any dispute
which has been brought to the AS
sembly by any country or referred
to it by the Security Council. A
two-thirds vote of the Little AS
sembly' is required to take up such
an issue from member country.
3. To consider and report its con-
illusions to the Assembly on mat
tiers dealing with cooperation IN the
maintenance of international peace
and security.
NAV Consider Special Session.
| 4. To consider whether any dis
pute requires the calling Of an ex-
traordinary session of the Assembly,
and to advise the secretary general
so he might poll the U. N. members.
5. To conduct Investigations and
appoint commissioners by two
thirds vote. No investigation shall
be carried out in any member coun-
try without the permission OF that
country.
6. To report to the next regular
Assembly on the ACCESSIBILITY OF
making the Little Assembly" per-
manent.
The Assembly also specifically IN.
structed the Little Assembly" not
to consider any matter on the work.

BY the As.ocioied Press

CLEVELAND, Oct 25. - Senator
Taft, Republican, of Ohio, declared
today he might go along with a
limited aid-to- Europe plan but ex-
pressed strong doubts about any
permanent multi billion dollar ar
rangement.
Picketed once again-this time
by six CIO-United Electrical Work

regional director-the Republican
presidential candidate disclosed
that he recently conferred with
President Truman on the scope OF
the Marshall plan.
Il asked the President" he told

George Meany. AFL secretary
treasurer, and A.. E. Lyons of the

ton.
To Urge Rehabilitation Program
From the meager information
made available by the Hartman
committee and from other sources,
1t was learned that the committee
will recommend an aid program de-
signed ss long-term rehabilitation
rather than mere continuation of
relief
Emphasis in the Committees re-
port will be on Europe's. needs for
1948, but recommendations prob
ably will be included for the three
other years as well.
There will be recommendations on
continuation of export controls, al
most certainly favoring continua-
ton.
Quick agreement was reached on
the question of wether any political
strings should be attached to the aid
such as has been suggested by
Harold Stassen and others. 1t is
probable that the committee will
recommend that no such conditions
be made a part of the aid program
Members will meet again Novem-
Der to consider the final draf,
which they hope to get to President
Truman on either the same or the
following day.
