KOREA
US Promise To India
United Nations, Aug. 25.
Russia agreed to a South Korean vote in the Korean peace conference today as the United States promised India a seat in future parleys while barring her from the Korean negotiations.
The Soviet delegate, Mr. Andrei Vyshinsky, put forward- a new slate of 15 nations to attend the Korean parley, in- cluding nine non-belligerents, insisting that only this sort of round-table system had a chance of success.
He warned that if the West insisted on hand-picking only friends "you will concoct à brew on which everybody will get drunk... but you won't resolve any problems".
The American delegate, Mr Henry Cabot Lodge, conveyed to the Polítical Committee the first public admission by the United States that its opposition to Indian attendance at the Far East parley stemmed in part from the South Korean threat to boycott the conference if India attended.
