Soviet delegate. The vote was taken shortly after the commission convened for an afternoon session Gromyko had made it evident during the morning that he would not favor tlfe report con taining the U. S. plan but he did not declare his intention to ab stain until the vote actually was taken. He sat silent when the roll was called.

The United States had proposed that any treaty setting up an atomic control authority would state specifically that the veto would not apply on punish ments. .
