Security Council Delegate
Can Be Appointed at Once
WASHINGTON, July 30.-41VSenator Connally ( D-Te ) said
today he is asking the state department to determine whether
the American delegate, to the world security council can be
appointed without further congressional action. ; ;
An appointment of this kind
attempts by critica of. the ; United i Nationa charter to 'place
specific congressianal curbs on the
delegate's authority. Some sena
tors j have indicated - they would
i to limit his power to vote for
the use of American troops . In
policing the peace. -
President Truman has said he
plans to name Edward R. Stettin
ius, Jr., former secretary of state,
as the nation's representative on
the security council. " ,
There were immediate indica
tions that Connally's idea of omit
ting the enabling legislation might
meet opposition in the senate.
Asked if he though such legis
lation is needed. Senator Vand en
berg (R-Mich), who was a dele
gate with Connally .at the San
rancisco conference where the
charter was drafted, told a re
porter:
'It not only is necessary to
satisfactorily qualify the delegate
for the office but I also think it
was promised to satisfy the sen
ate."
Although it was the general un
derstanding in senate -debate pre
ceding ratification of the charter
Saturday that the delegate's, auth
ority would be defined in legisla
tion Setting up his office,: Connal
ly told reporters it is his personal
opinion a resolution ot this kind
is unnecessary. ,- '.
The point is," the foreign re-
lations chairman said, "that the
delegate is going to -be a diplo
matic officer appointed by the
president and he ; will have to
carry out the orders of the presi
dent. The president is the one who
will decide how' this nation votes
on the security council."
