Reverses Itself.

France decided last week £0 accept the invitation. Later it reversed that - position and decided to attend the conference, but not to join in sponsoring it. France, however, will be a member of the proposed permanent council of the world organization, along with the U. 8, Britain, Russia and China. The department also revealed that Poland has not been invited to send representatives to the conference. It said no such invitation will be issued until the government of Poland has been reconstituted on a broader democratic basis, as the Big Three decided during their Crimea meeting.

How It Works

Under the Dumbarton Oaks plan, tg |tWO representative groups would be established by the world security organization. = There would be an assembly, comprising a representative of each member nation. Then there would be the council, composed of the Big Five as permanent members and six others chosen by the assembly on a rotating basis.’ Here's what would happen, under the world security council voting procedure, if the United States should become involved in an international dispute: This country’s represeritative on the 11-member couneil of the pro< posed world ' security organization would have to stand aside when the council took. up the dispute. He would have no vote in council deliberations of - such. preliminary steps as whether to investigate it further, to call for various efforts to arbitrate +it or to recommend method and procedure of settlement.

regardless of how the other council members Teel. Only. - the Big Five countries. which are to have permanent membership on the council, would enjoy such veto power, however. They are the United - States, Britain, Russia, China and France. Such action could be taken only by a vote of seven council members— and in such cases the seven must include all five permanent members. The procedure outlined . above would, of course, apply likewise to disputes involving any other of the Big Five. The reasoning behind the veto power fd} any enforcement steps against the Big Five is that if an international dispute involving one of those nations ever reached that stage there-would probably be war, anyway.

They swung down against the city early today and rammed into its northwestern outskirts. Attacking in two parallel columns, the 3d armored captured Longerich, 1% miles northwest of the city limits.
