Soviet Russia vetood the admission of Italy to the United Nations in the Security Council tonight, whereupon the United States hinted at a "formula" to secure for Italy a voice without a vote in the General Assembly,
Mr. Warren Austin, the United States delegate, ofter making this suggestion to the Council, said afterwards it might be possible to work out o scheme under which any nation which obtain- ed the requisite majority of support in both the Security Council and the General Assembly could be on "associate member" in matters in- volving its own national interest.
