Action On Resolution To Await Debate
Lake Success January 27 The United States pressed for a quick U N vote condemning Communist Chinese aggression in Korea despite new peace plans. The U S delegation backed by President Truman opposed substantial changes, urging a three man commission to seek a cease fire and peaceful settlement with United Nations aims. Canada and Israel proposed bridging ideas ahead of a 12 nation Arab Asian plan for a cease-fire. Pearson proposed six compromises including a seven nation conference and a direct U N Korea cease fire group. Israel urged expanding U N good offices. The U S said Red China must be named aggressor, but Nehru warned such a declaration could rule out settlement. The talks stressed cease fire as a military issue not for international conference and noted key participants include the United States Red China Britain France Russia India Egypt and Peiping’s response due within 48 hours.
