OHNO STUPID! Conference (Cantiaaed from Page 1) guarantees freedom of "discussion of disputes in the security council will be continued at another meeting of the voting procedure committee tomorrow afternoon This may be the last opportunity for Evatt and his supporters to win concessions But as things stand now the Big Five are determined to stand pat and are confident they have enough support tb win Saturday night's session of the Committee on Voting Procedure the first meeting or that group since the Big Five reached agreement on interpretation of the voting formula was marked by the most bitter debate of the Conference It was highlighted by a sharp clash between the New Zealand and British -delegates But the burden for tha opposing sides was carried by Evatt and by Sen Tom Connally (D-Texas) who served as spokesman for the Big Five Dramatic Session From various sources the United Press pieced together this account of the committee's highly dramatic session: Connally was the first speaker He began by outlining the Big powers' contribution to the war effort and contended that this was justification enough for the veto right He pointed out that the Conference now had been sitting for seven weeks said the Soviet Union had shown a great spirit of magnanimity in modify ing its position on the veto's application and urged the committee to conclude its deliberations at the earliest possible moment Speaking slowly in his soft Southern drawl and with eloquent gestures Connally said the sponsoring powers would not add anything to or subtract from the statement they had submitted on the veto He added that no interpretation of the veto could be regarded as authoritative because each delegate would -have to interpret it for himself This he said was what happened with bills before Congress and it could not be any different with the charter Evatl Takea Flaar Evatt followed him The Australian statesman began by paying a tribute to Connally's eloquence He conceded that tha Big powers had made a big contribution to the war but pointed out that soma smaller nations like Australia and New Zealand had shown in two wars that they were concerned with security too He said tha real question which could not be concealed by any amount of eloquence was whether or not the joint statement of the sponsoring powers really guaranteed that the processes or conciliation could not be blocked by a single great power "The interpretation given by the joint statement Evatt said not based on any consistent principle In soma respects it is un duly narrow in others perhaps surprisingly wide In its application to Chapter VIII Section A (dealing with peaceful settlements or disputes) it is far more restrictive than the interpretation given by the representative of one of the sponsoring governments when the matter was last before the committee He referred to an earlier interpretation of the Yalta voting formula by tha British permanent undersecretary of foreign affairs Sir Alexander Cadogan Evatt contended that the joint statement answered directly only one of the 22 questions submitted by the little powers "The answer they would have given to some or the questions reasonably clear Evatt went on "But in others the matter is left altogether at large In a few instances the correctness of the answer implied is open to grave questions TROtA VOMKl YOt Of ROD VSE NONE TOO
