SPAIN BLOCKADE PLANS MODIFIED
UN Subcommittee Accepts Idea Backed by U. S.
NEW YORK, June 13 (U. P.).— A five-nation subcommittee of the United Nations security council today agreed, on American initiative, to modify its proposals for action {against Spain to dodge a formal recommendation for a world diplo- 3 i
STRAUSS SAYS:
matic blockade of the Franco regime. Herbert V. Evatt, Australian for- ’
eign minister and subcommittee chairman, said the compromise plan —also agreed to by Poland, China, Brazil and France and presumably acceptable to Great Britain—would leave the way open for the 51-nation United Nations general assembly to take whatever action it might deem necessary, including establishment of a diplomatic quarantine. But members of the security council would not be committed when the assembly meets in September to vote to break off relations with Spain if Franco is still in power, as originally ‘proposed by |the subcommittee after a monthlong study of the Spanish question. The subcommittee’s acceptance of the compromise appeared to pave the way for adoption of its other proposals, which would in effect formally denounce Franco as a po- | tential aggressor and pledge council support to any free government
power in Spain. Russia, however, was expected to fight vigorously against the compromise and to depnand immediate council initiative in calling on ; member states to break with Spain. * Andrei A. Gromyko, Soviet delegate, gave a detailed review of evi-
grounds July 4-7
