Proposal
BUT THEY WANT NON-U.N. MEMBERS ADMITTED TOO.
New York, Oct. 11.
The Soviet Union announced today it would support a Western pro- posal to set up an international agency to develop peaceful uses of atomic energy. However, it wanted the agency to be linked directly with the United Nations Security Council and General Assembly.
The United States, Britain, Canada and five other countries have proposed an atomic energy agency with the status of a specialised agency of the United Nations (such as the World Health Organisation).
At the "summit" meeting in
Soviet July, the
