New York, Sept, 22.
The Steering Committee of the United Nations General Assembly today overrode Soviet objections that the Assembly consider the admis- sion to membership of Laos and Cambodia,
The Committee voted 12 to none with the Soviet Union and Czechoslovakia abstaining, to recommend to the Assembly that the question remain in the agenda as a sub-heading to the general question of the admission of new members.
Mr Vyshinsky earlier asked that the General · As- sembly should postpone the discussion of the admission of Laos and Cambodia to the United Nations "until the Indo-China situation, as a whole, is settled in CON- formity with the Geneva Agreements.”
The proposal was made in a meeting of the Assembly bureau to discuss the agenda of the new Assembly session.
The question had been brought up by the Australian delegate, who had urged that the admis- alon of Laos and Cambodia should be decided upon at the current 60ssion.
He said that he was ready to support the admission in prin- ciple of Vietnam, the decision to take effect after the Vietnam elections schedules for 1850,
