In an address to the 60-nation UN assembly, the Canadian exter- nal affairs minister said it world be wrong "merely because the Communist governments. of Pei- ping and North Korea demand it, to reopen at once the whole mat- ter" of what nations should be represented at the conference. "Insistence, for instance, by the Communist side that the Korean conference cannot convene unless the United Nations agree that the U.S.S.R. be present as a 'neutral' member would throw serious dmiht on their desire to have the con- ference meet at all. "Once the conference meets there will be ample opportunity to iron out other difficulties which may arise. But are these of suf- ficient consequence to justify the other side in boycotting this nec- essary first step in peace-making, not only in Korea, but perhaps in a broader area?" Pearson's mention of "boycott" was apparently a reference to the veiled threat by Russia's Andrei Vishinsky that the Reds might re- fused to attend a conference unless it were framed along the lines they demand. The UN assembly in special ses- !sion last month decided that its side of the conference table would tions as Russia, India, Pakistan and Burma in the role of "neu- trals."
