Soviet Demand For Debate Is Rejected By UN Committee Rejects Russian Demand For Renewal Os Debate „ .. ■l' - . v UNITED NATIONS. N. Y. UP '— The United Nations steering committee today rejected Russia’s demand for a renewed general assembly debate on the Korean conference The committee rejected the demand, made originally by Communist China and North Korea, in an 11-2 vote, with Yugoslavia abstaining. Only Poland supported Russia’s position. The vote came after the United States declared the Communists could raise the issue of “neutral” countries’ participation once the parley had begun. U.. S. ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge, Jr., also said the American government, acting on behalf of the U. N., was ready to meet “at once” kith representatives of Red China and North Korea to discuss conference arrangements at San Francisco. Honolulu or Geneva. Lodge’s declaration was taken as an indication of "flexibility” ,pn the part of the United States and marked the first time Washington had offered to meet the Far East Communists «face-to-face to discuss the conference set-up. Soviet delegate Andrei Y. Vishinsky, acting in conformity with demands from the Far East Reds for renewed debate here, demanded that the steering committee recommend such a discussion as an additional item for the assembly’s agenda. Dodge promptly offered vigorous opposition. Lodge noted that communications to seCretarJ general Dag Hammarskjold from the Peiping and Pyongyang authorities declared the question of the conference’s composition could not be settled unilaterally by the assembly, but only by agreement of both sides. “The U., N. side,” Lodge said, “is selected and functioning. The question of having any neutral invited is a matter for agreement between both sides. “Therefore, if developments during the conference warrant it and if the other side wants to raise the question of additional members, it is open to them to do so, for both sides will be present and will be «ble to consider this matter." Lodge pointed out that the U. S. already has sent two messages to 4he Far East Reds through Sweden, proposing that the conference sta’e Oct. 15 at San Francisco, Honolulu or Geneva, and urging them to agree quickly so that arrangements could be completed.
