United Nations, Sept. 14. Fierson Dixon, Britain's permanent "voice" at the United Nations. said today that the results of the Warsaw talks between the U.S. and China should be awaited before considering whether the Quemoy- Matsu issue should be brought before the U.N... Assembly.
British Ambassador to the U.N. was interviewed on the BBS television show "face the nation" on the eve of the opening of the 13th Assembly session on Tuesday.
said he favoured negotiation of such issues by the parties concerned over a conference table, and talking out rather than fighting it out. And then it remained to be seen whether the U.N. could do something about it,

Asked whether Britain would support the U.S. on the Quemoy-Matsu and Formosa Strait controversy. Sir Pierson said that as a member of the United Nations Britain had certain obligations but "I'm not aware we have given, or have been asked for, commitments regarding the offshore islands.'
On a question where the U.S. would be left to fight alone
if it got involved in fighting in the offshore islands, the British diplomat termed the query hypothetical. He said he hoped all efforts would be directed toward averting conflict and solving the issue by peaceful
means.
Sir Pierson also said:

Agenda-Dulles
By JOHN A. GOLDSMITH
Washington, Sept. 14. Secretary of State John Fostor Dulles said today he "would not be surprised" if Russia tried to place the Formosa Strait crisis on the agenda of the United Nations general assombly meeting opening in New York on Tuesday. Mr. Dulles made the statement as he left for New York to prepare for the session. He said in answer to a question that Russia had tried several times in the past to put on the U.N. agenda subjects to which the United States objected.
Mr Dulles did not elaborate, but the administra- tion generally has taken the position that this would not be the time to carry the Far East crisis to the U.N.
However, President Eisenhower said on Thursday night that U.N. action might be sought if US-Chinese talks schedued to open in Warsaw tomorrow----failed to produce a solution to the Formosa crisis.
Mr Dulles said he was hope- ful ibat the talks in Warsaw would bring a solution to the conflict over Islanda off the Chins coast now held by Chinese Nutionalist forces.

"Wo know that Chou En-lal agreed to resume the talks in the interest of peace,”· Dulles sald. "We hope peace will come out of it."
Mr Dulles obviously was pre- pured for discussion of the Far East crisis while in New York. 1 He was Accompanied to the U.N. meeting by Assistant Secretary of State Walter S. Robertson, top Far East adviser, and the Assistant Secretary WHliam M. Rountree, another adviser on the Far East.
