THURSDAY, OCTOBER 1, 1888
BY the Assotiotsd Press

UNITED NATIONS, N. r.,
Oct. Limited Nations dele
gates looked today for still more
Communist maneuvers to re-
open General Assembly debate
on the Korean peace conference
makeup.
The Assembly's Political Com
mittee refused last night to take
up Korea at once and instead
put the question at the bottom
Of its Seven-point work program.
Delegates freely predicted,
however, that new calls would
be coming from Communist
China or North Korea in the
wake of an Australian amend
ment, adopted over United
States objections and providing
that a simple majority vote of
the committee could give the
Korean debate priority if de-
Velopments warranted.
AS the committee members
adjourned until next WedneS-
day, many of them expected new
messages from the Asian Reds
renewing demands for the in
clusion of Asian neutrals in the
Korean conference lineup. They
figured any such Peiping-Pyong-
yang communications would
give Soviet Delegate Andrei Y.
Vishinsky the platform on which
to say the debate had become
necessary.
Warning From ViShinSky.
Mr.. Vishinsky had warned
early in yesterdays long wrang-
ling that unless the conference
makeup is settled, there is a
possibility the conference might
not even meet" He also had
termed the peace conf erence an
urgent question. to which United
States Delegate Henry Cabot
Lodge. jr., later replied:
"If the Communists consider
the peace conference an urgent
matter, then let then get on
with it. They can meet with
the envoy we have offered to
send to any one of three places
Geneva, San Francisco or Hon
olulW to discuss the time and
place for the conference"
The Korean armistice calls for
the conference to begin Non or
before October %. To the
United States offer to talk about
time and place, the Communists
have replied only indirectly
with the demand to the U. N.
for the expanded parley.
The General Assembly voted
last month that the conference
should be a two-Sided negotia-
tion by belligerents. The U. N.
allies say the conference. after
it meets, can take up the ques-
ton of neutrals.
Moroccan Issue Up First.
The committee voted to take
up the Arab-ASian charges
against Frances administration
of Morocco first, when it comes
back to work next week. The
remainder of the agenda. adopt
ed 1875, with S abstaining, pro-
vides for this order of debate:
Tunisian disturbances, Com
munist complaints that the
United States waged germ war
fare in Korea, Burma'S charge
that Nationalist Chinese guer-
rillas are committing aggression
within her borders, diSarma-
ment, the omnibus Soviet peace
proposals, and the Korean situ-
alton.
The Soviet bloc and Yugo-
slavia voted against this order;
the abstainers were India, Indo-
nesia and Burma-all of whom
the Reds want to invite to the
conference; Afghanistan and
Iran.
France was the Goth nation.
Because the agenda dealt with
her two North African protec-
torates, which, she contends are
her domestic affair and not
U. N. business. she refused to
participate in the vote.
The Australian amendment
opening the door to possible
priority for early Korean debate
was approved, 49-7, with the
United States voting mo" along
side the Soviets for a change.
Nationalist China made the sew
enth opponent. and the abstain
erS were Turkey-another u. N.
belligerent in Korea-Argentina,
Ell Salvador and the Dominican
Republic.
