NEW YORK, Sept. 15-The
United States indirectly chal-
lenged~Russia today to cooper
ate with the United Nations or
face a world judgment that none
can veto.
The challenge was couched in
meaningful diplomatic language and
came as an array of world leaders
converged on New York for the
opening tomorrow of a crucial ses-
sion of the United Nations Assembly.
Obviously referring to Russia's
use of the veto in the Security
Council, Secretary of State Marshall
said in an address yesterday that
members of the United Nations
have by no means exhausted the
potentiallties of the charter in find
ing ways and means of overcoming
obstruction and of meeting their
common problems"
We find it difficult to believe" he
said, that members of the organiza-
ton would deliberately seek to
destroy its structure by persistence
in acts of aggression or by obstruc-
ton of nature to paralize the
principal organs of the organiza-
ton"
Moral Judgment Cited.
At Tarrytown, N. Y, John Foster
Dulles, member of the United
States delegation to the United
Nations Assembly, said that every
government now realizes IF it goes
against a strong prevailing moral
judgment 1t may suffer grievous
penalties"
1T was never expected that the
/ Security Council could act decisively
when great powers were on oppo-
site sides" Mr.. Dulles said. 1T was
expected tnat, even under these
conditions. the U. N. could work
I for peace by requiring every nation,
however powerful, to submit to a
public judgment which none could
veto-for it would be the conscience
of the world"
In Baltimore, u, N Secretary
General Trygve Lie said it was not
the big powers but the former CO.
lonial peoples who perhaps are the
greatest potential threats to world
peace
"Astonishingly as it may sound,
.the most important big powers are
distinctly closer to each other than
they were in the tWenties," Mr.. Lie
said. Some of the problems have
been taken in hand by the former
colonial peoples through national-
istic movements for liberation. Here.
perhaps, lie the greatest possibilities
for conflict today"
Obstruction" Mentioned.
Although Gen. Marshall did not
directly mention Russia during his
speech to the American Association
for the United Nations, he did single
out her satellites and obviously had
the Soviet Union in mind as he re-
ferred time and again to "obstruc-
ton in the Security Council, where
Russia has exercised 18 vetos.
The American diplomat asserted
that the direct threat of Russia's
/ Balkan satellites to Greek inde-
pendence must be removed. He ex-
pressed the hope that the United
I Nations Assembly would fulfill that
task promptly.
I'VE are particularly concerned
Gen. Marshall said, with the aid
and assistance which are being
provided by Yugoslavia, Bulgaria
and Albania to the guerrillas in
Greece-a direct threat to the ter
ritorial integrity and political inde-
pendence of that country"
He declared that I'VE must join
with other members to make it
Enthusiastically clear that aggression
against the territorial integrity or
political independence of others will
be resisted by the combined efforts
of the members of the United
Nations
