Plan To Restrict Veto, Worked On By United States NEW YORK. â€"A detailed plan for restricting use of the veto vote in the United Nations Security Council is being worked out by the United States in at least three difâ€" fering ways it was learned Major proposals are: 1. To broaden an existing rule against letting any Big Five power sit in judgment on council decisions arising from charges against itself. (The United Nations charter allows any one of the five to veto use of force against itself, but not to vote on nonâ€"force measures). 2. To allow any of the Big Five voluntarily to obstain from voting vithout having the failure to vote counted as a veto, as it might be row. 3. To classify as fully as possible security council decisions which are "procedural" (requiring only majority vote for decision) and those which are "substantive" (reâ€" quiring concurrence of the Big Five; that is, the veto system) Lack of agreement on this has cost the council many hot hours of deâ€" == THE WATERLOO CHRONICLE Vol. 80, No. 44 While presumably subject to lastâ€" minute change, the plan will be placed informally before the Rusâ€" sian, British, French and Chinese delega!ions here soon.
