Lake Success, N.Y., Aug. 21.

Russia applied the veto in the Security Council once again today against' an Australian re- solution on Italy's membership.

Russia applied the veto a second time against Austria's application for membership of the United Nations.

The Security Council rejected the application of Rumania and Bu'goria.

The Counell also turned down Hungary's application. Russin supported Hungary, the United Staten opponed and there were nine abstentions.

Sir Alexander Cadogan (Bri- lain) said that he could not vote for Ilungary until she was satisfied that this government was prepared to observe pence reaty obligations in the field lof human rights.
