Representatives
of
the
Big
Four
nations
are
closer
to
final
agreement
on
the
issue
of
veto
powers
now
under
consideration
at
the
San
Francisco
conference.
At
a
meeting
Saturday
night,
Britain,
the
United
States,
Russia
and
China
reviewed
a
statement
on
the
veto
question
which
had
already
been
ap
proved
by
technical
experts
of
the
Big
Powers.
In
substance,
Big
Four
policy
now
is
shaping
up
like
this
the
major
powers
will
retain
the
right
to
veto
any
action
by
the
world
security
council
against
a
potential
aggressor.
But
this
veto
privilege
will
not
prevent
any
other
nation
from
bringing
complaints
of
threats
to
peace
before
the
security
council.
This
would
permit
the
security
council
to
discuss
any
situation
which
holds
a
threat
to
.peace.
But
the
Big
Five
Britain,
the
United

Russia,
China
and
France
would
Oiave
to
give
unanimous
approval
to
any
measures
undertaken
by

to
halt

YOU

.
.
.
Many
feel
that
they
would
like
to
see
Canada
give
C.CF.'s
brand
of
Socialism
"a
trial."
You
can't
elect
a
Socialist
government
to
take
over
banks,
transportation
and
Industry
and
then,
if
you
don't
like
it,
throw
it
out
and
turn
things
back
to
their
previous
owners.
The
Socialists
themselves
are
agreed
that
their
plans
could
only
be
made
to
work
If
the
changes
were
permanent
Which
means
that
the
Socialists
would
have
to
be
permanently
In

couldn't
