Loko Success, June 27.

President Harry Truman's bold act in despatching military aid to South Korea and drawing the line on Communism in East Asia won the back- ing of the United Nations Security Council tonight. -The-11-member Council voted 7-1 for an American, resolution en- dorsing the President's decision. India and Egypt said they were not participating in the vote because they had not received instructions. Yugoslavia voted against it.

The Soviet Union was absent from the Council. Its chief delogato, Jakob A. Malik, insisted at a secret luncheon talk with the U.S. Ambosza- dor, Ernest A. Gross, that the Council decision on Sunday for a cessa- tion of hostilities in Korea was illegal. He laughed and said “nyet” (no) when asked by the Secretary-General Trygve Lic, if he would go along to the Council moeting from the lunch. M. Malik will leave on holi- day soon and there is consider able speculation here about Russia's future in the UN now.
