CHINESE SEAT IN U.N.
President Backed By House Committee (Rec. 11 p.m.) WASHINGTON, July 13. The Foreign Affairs Committee of the House of Representatives unanimously approved a resolution today opposing the admission of Communist China to the United Nations and backing President Eisenhower in his determination to keep the Chinese Communists out. The committee adopted the resolution instead of several stronger ones calling for United States withdrawal from the United Nations, or at least a re-examination of American foreign policy, if Communist China is given a United Nations seat. The committee said, in a report on the resolution that it was making “no recommendation” on what course of action should be taken if Communist China is admitted. It said it had “every confidence” that the President and the Secretary of State (Mr Dulles) would retain free world support for the United States position. The resolution would put the House on record as being opposed to the seating of Communist China and as supporting the President “in his expressed determination to use all means tn prevent the seating of the Peking regime.”
