The 115 member United Nations faces a stalemate over dues and voting rights as the Soviet Union owes $52 million and France delays Congo costs. Article 19 bans voting for two years behind in dues, but the General Assembly and Security Council dispute who funds peacekeeping. The process of choosing a president and new council members is done in prearranged pantomime to avoid a direct vote. The U.S. push to bar the Soviet Union from voting hinges on whether dues nonpayment can block representation. A broader question looms whether the assembly or council should authorize peacekeeping actions.
