COMMITTEE COMMITTEE APPROVES APPEAL TO BIG FIVE FOR NEW PEACE TALKS

Unanimous

vote returned

Lako Success, October 21.

he United Nations' Political Committee unanimously approved today an appeal to the "Big Five" Powers to have now talks in an effort to resolve problems threatening international peace.

le appeal was in a proposal by Iraq and Syria calling for a meeting of the permament Security Council members, the "Big Five". It did not specify whether Communist or Nationalist China was to be included. e unanimous vote came after the Committee had rejected as inadmis- sible two Soviet attempts to specify that the Chinese Communist Gov- ernment should be represented.
