RED GROUP ABSTAINS
FROM VOTING
New York, Nov. 18.
The Political Committee of the United Nations General Assembly today approved by 54-0 resolution sponsored by Britain, France, the United States and 11 other powers to solve the 'ang-deadlocked disarmament question.
The Soviet group of five and Burma abstained. Burma said it did not participate in the vote ecause it had not been possible to obtain unanimity for the resolution.
The resolution asked
