'China In U.N. In Spite Of Veto'
(N.Z.P.A -Reuter—Copyright)
LONDON, Nov. 1.
China had to I® brought into the United Nations, in spite of the threat of a third veto and the difficulties it would cause, Mr George Thomson. Minister of State for Foreign Affairs, told a rally in Trafalgar square today.
“World peace depends on gradually increasing U.N.O.’s authority,” he said. Mr Thomson was speaking to a crowd of 3000 at a United Nations Association rally which brought U.N. week, celebrating the organisation's twentieth birthday, to a close. Mr Thomson said the United Nations had done “spectacularly better” than its international predecessor, the League of Nations. Bringing the India-Pakistan conflict to a standstill had been a tantalising glimpse of
the United Nation's peacekeeping potentialities. If the Great Powers of the Security Council were able to achieve a degree of unanimity —China must be part of U.N.O.’s international community although no-one would underestimate the difficulties or the fact that it would mean a third veto. Mr Thomson said.
