session with the United States over
the North Atlantic defense alliance
drew to a close today.
Foreign Minister Halvard NJ.
Lange planned to catch a plane
to New York tonight. taking with
him Secretary of State Acheson's
final word on the benefits and
responsibilities of membership In
the alliance.
Mr.. Lange said after White
House visit today he was in no
position now to give his country's
conclusions regarding the pact. He
described his. 15-minute visit to
President Truman as a courtesy
call and said he received great
understandings"
The Atlantic treaty is intended
to bind the United States, Canada
and Western Europe into a tight
ring against Communist expansion.
Russia. strongly attacking the
project, has made Norway a
counteroffer of a nonaggression
pact.
Mr.. Lange was to pick up Mr..
Achesons official answer at a
farewell State Department call to-
day, climaxing five days of inten-
sive discussion on plans for de-
Tending Norway and the other
Scandinavian countries against
possible attack.
The State Department has tried
to keep all details Of the CONVEX
sations strictly secret, but diplo-
matte officials said Mr.. Acheson
was prepared to give Mr.. Lange
these assurances:
/. Norway would get maximum
amounts" of any American arms
supplied to members of the alli-
ance-if Congress approves such
an arrangement.
2. Norwegian military leaders
would have full opportunity to
help plan overall defense
strategy.

Lucas Pledges TO Keep
FiIibuster Debate From
Blocking Other Action
BY fhs Assoeiotsd Press

Arguments over q filibuster
killing rules change will not be
allowed to impede" major legis-
lation in the Senate. Democratic
Leader Lucas of Illinois said today.
The debate-gag proposal is due
to be introduced next week. Sen
ator Russell, Democrat, of Geor-
gia plans a meeting of Southerners
to formulate policy and a pro-
gram" to defeat the change.
The Southern Senators oppose
the plan because unlimited debate
is their best weapon against civil
rights bills.
Southern Filibuster Expected.
The rules change, approved
earlier this week by the Senate
Rules Committee, would permit
two thirds of the Senators present
in the chamber to gag debate at
any time. 1t is sponsored by Rules
Chairman Hayden and Senator
Wherry of Nebraska, Republican
floor leader.
Senator Hayden said he will re-
port the legislation to the Senate
some day next week" Southern
ers now are primed to filibuster
against it.
Senator Lucas said that when
the time arrives, he will move to
take up the Hayden-Wherry pro-
posal. If that results in the ex-
pected filibuster. he said. South
erners will be allowed to talk un-
til some major bill is ready for
Senate action.
When We have some bill ready.
will withdraw the motion on
the rules change and move to
take UP the legislation" he said.
This argument over the rules
change is not going to be per-
mitted TO impede Senate action
on the legislative program.
Senator Lucas said he is as
sured of solid Democratic back
ing for this course. Democrats
outnumber the Republicans in the
Senate, 81 to a..
Senator Knowland. Republican.
of California said Republicans
will be- just as solidly opposed to
shelving the rules change pro-
posal. Senator Knowland has
been heading q Republican drive
for the change.
The Southern group under Sen
ator Russell's leadership includes
a bout 20 Senators from IL South
ern States. Sena tor Russell told
q reporter he has asked one other
Senator to join them, but he
would not name him.

These informed officials said Mr.
Acheson would make it clear the
United States will not give mill
tary support to any neutral de-
fense alliance such as Sweden has
been proposing for the three Scan
dinavian nations.
Mr.. Lange and the Danish Am
bassador both have inquired spe-
cifically about the official Ameri-
can view on that point.
Norway rejected Sweden's pro-
posal, but, with Denmark, has been
seeking some compromise such as
a separate Scandinavian alliance
which could be tied in with the
Atlantic network.
That plan reportedly has re-

the State Department has treated
