"HX ;' UN Studies Of Two Top UNITED NATIONS, NY. (l'PI Tlie General Assem bly's special political committee met Saturday to seek a solu tion of the problem o expand ing the two top L'.N. councils in proportion to the world or ganization's expanded member ship. A resolution sponsored by 37 Afro-Asian nations was before tlie Ill-nation committee pro posing enlargement of the Se curity Council from 11 to 15 members and the Economic and Social Council 'ECOSOO from 18 to 27. Diplomats expected a speech from Soviet Ambassador Nikolai T. Fedorcnko, who was charged by Hed China with falsely pre senting its position on the coun cil expansion plan. Fedorenko was said to be awaiting instruc tions from Moscow. Fedorenko' told the committee earlier last week he opposed the expansion plan because Commu nist China had advised M'-ia it was against enlargemi' t the councils until it wa- i-n the scat held by the Niiti- -ii-t Chinese. The 'Peking broaden.--' id Red China advised M0.-1H" ;vm some Asian and African coun tries last September that the two Issues ."should not and need not he bundled together." The U. N. charter would have to be amended to enlarge the two councils. Amendments must be approved by all of the "Big Five'' powers, meaning that Russia could veto them on the pretext of carrying out Peking's wishes.

FREE GIFT WRAPPING OPEN TILL 9:00 HARDWARE Expansion Councils Hie Peking-Moscow bickering gave the final fillip to the most complicated issue of the 18th as sembly session, which is sched uled tu end next Tuesday. Agreement apparently had berti reached among the 56-na-tion Afro-Asian group and the 21-nation Latin American group to seek the addition of two mem bers to. the security council and six to ECOSOC. The two groups are seeking overwhelm ing assembly approval of the proposal in hope of swaying the Kremlin's altitude. The western powers concurred. The first agreed formula would have called for eieht elective seats dn the Security Council. Two would go to Latin America, as has been the prac tice since 194, one would be reserved for Western Europe "and others" and one for Com munist Eastern Europe. The re maining four would be ear marked for the Afro-Asian puw. ers. The African insisted that their numerical strength entitled them to three seats, with one going to Asia. Asian objections led to recon sideration of the formula and emergence of the 37-power reso lution submitted Friday pight. Under the new formula, 10 elective Security Council seats would be available, the remain der being held by the perma nent (Big Five) members. The new arrangement would give Africa three scats, Asia two, Latin America two. Western Europe "and others" two and Eastern Europe one.
