priority
Gadel 92. Re membership (Delga 216). While we are surprised over your estimate re lack of support for Australian joint draft resolution and for our amendment on Vietnam and ROK, we concur in course of action outlined reftel which US Delegation intends follow.
We strongly hope Committee will not refer Soviet package proposal to SC, since this would weaken GA’s past position in opposition to this proposal. Therefore we agree that if resolutions other than Indian-Latin American draft are not voted upon, it would be preferable for Committee not to refer them to SC after adoption Indian-Latin American draft and to decide no further action necessary.
