LAKE SUCCESS, Oct. 19.-Dip-
lomats of seven nations met be-
hind locked doors this morning
to discuss Russia's demand to
serve on the peace patrols set UP
under the United Nations new
anti-aggression program.
They were summoned by Ameri-
cas- John Foster Dulles, who
guided to- victory the plan origi-
nally outlined by Secretary of
State AcheSon.
Gathered with Mr.. Dulles in the
room sealed off by blue uniformed
guards were representatives of
Britain, Canada, France, Turkey,
the Philippines and Uruguay.
They were co-sponsors of the pro-
gram.
The plan. which puts teeth in
q. N. efforts to maintain peace,
was adopted by the Donation
Political Committee in a para
graph by paragraph vote last
night.
Assembly Sessions Provided.
Besides the peace patrols-to
rove areas of tension and report
possible threats of peace-it pro-
vides for emergency sessions of
the veto-free General Assembly
on 24-hour notice whenever the
Security Council is hamstrung by
the Russian veto. 1t calls on
member nations to earmark units
OF their armed forces for service
when either the Security Council
or the General Assembly calls and
asks a survey of what forces will
be available.
Delegates agree it is the most
important step the U. N. has
taken since that body was forced
in 1945.
Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei
Y. Vishinsky fought the plan Bit
terly. He said it was designed to
wipe out" the Security Council,
where Russia has the veto, and
thus was contrary to the United
Nations Charter. In that docu-
ment. the Council is given primary
responsibility for maintaining in
ternational peace and security.
Asks Representation.
When Mr.. Vishinsky saw that
almost all the non-Soviet world
was in favor Of the American pro-
posals. he demanded that the H.
man peace patrols include repre-
sentatives of the five big powers.
In this list he included Com
munist China. as we'll as Russia.
the United States, Britain and
France.
Mr.. Dulles said the sponsors
would meet to discuss this. but
insisted that. if it were adopted
the post would go to the Chinese
representative recognized by a
of the U. N.-that is Ma
tionalist China.
No matter what the conferees
agree on this morning, the issue
OF what Chinese government
should serve is expected to explode
this afternoon when the full
Political Committee meets to
name the patrol. These elections
must take place before the anti
aggression program is sent to a
full plenary session of the As
sembly for final approval. Such
approval is assured because every
paragraph received more than the
required two-thirds vote yester-
day.
Mr.. Dulles hesitant approval
OF Mr.. Vishinsky's membership
selections was regarded with some
surprise here. The United States
hitherto has insisted that no big
powers be represented.
Canada and France Back Russia.
Canada and France, among the
sponsoring powers. are believed to
feel that Mr.. Vishinsky's pro-
posals have merit and that the
Big Five should certainly serve on
such patrols.
Russia. Nationalist China and
Egypt lined up yesterday behind
an unexpected Indian move which
in effect would throw Trygve Lie
out Of Office next February 2 and
select a new secretary general for
the U. N. Russia suggested the
new man should come from Latin
America or Asia.
The Security Council met in
secret session for two hours yes
terday without reaching a decision
and without bringing new names
openly into the issue. The Coun-
Gil will meet again tomorrow after
members have heard from their
home governments on the Indian
proposal
A meeting of the General As
sembly called for today to act
finally on an extension of Mr.. Lies
term was Cancelled. 1t cannot be
held while the Council still is
considering the question.
