Nations Deadlocked
In Security Council
UNITED NATIONS, N.Y., Oct. 19 (W)—The Philippines, firmly
backed by the United States, fought to a draw today with Com
munist Yugoslavia in the second round of voting for a UN• Security
Council seat. -
Faced with a deadlock for the second time, the UN
wrangled heatedly for two hours and then approved, 29-8,
lean proposal to vote for seats on
the Economic and Social Council
and the Trusteeship Council. The
date for the next balloting on the
Security Council was not set.
Represented Victory
This represented a victory for
Henry Cabot Lodge Jr., chief U.S.
delegate. Yugoslavia long has
been a candidate for the Eco
nomic and Social Council. The
Yugoslays, supported by, the Brit
ish Commonwealth and the So
viet Union, formally announced
their candidacy for the council
today.
Lodge, who has made this con
test a matter of prestige for the
United States, and the Philippine
delegate, Carlos P. Romulo, were
jubilant at the Assembly decision
to pass on to the voting. The
I Yugoslav delegation, which ac
tually would like to hold places
on both councils, was glum
Receives 48 Votes
Yugoslavia was elected to the
Economic and Social Council on
the second ballot, receiving 46
votes. Three countries were elect
ed on the first ballot. They were
the United States 50 votes, Can
ada 48, and Indonesia 44.
Backers of the Philippines con
tend that Yugoslavia's election to
the Economic and Social Council
weakens Belgrade's chances for
the Security Council. Under UN
rules. it is possible for a country
to be on two of the major coun
cils but the tradition is to give
such honor only to the big pow
ers. There have been exceptions.
