Resolution Softened The resolution already had been softened somewhat by com¬ mon agreement and the Indian- led sponsors were attempting to force a vote on it today. Britain and France, with some support from other Western delegations, were trying to put it off until tomorrow. U. S. Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge Jr. said that although the U. S. delegation considered the resolution unnecessary it would vote for it if it were put to a ballot. He said this would be the only way the U. S. could keep its position consistent. Israel previously had an¬ nounced oniy that there had been withdrawals of its forces for varying lengths along the Egyptian front. This announce¬ ment did not make it clear whether the forces actually were removed from Egypt. But residents of Budapest ap- oeared more interested in what happened to Nagy. The Central Workers Counci! of Greater Budapest demanded a formal statement from the Kadar government on the fate of the popular Nagy. The council broke off its spas¬ modic talks with Kadar which were getting nowhere.

Resolution Softened The resolution already had been softened somewhat by com¬ mon agreement and the Indian- led sponsors were attempting to force a vote on it today. Britain and France, with some support from other Western delegations, were trying to put it off until tomorrow. U. S. Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge Jr. said that although the U. S. delegation considered the resolution unnecessary it would vote for it if it were put to a ballot. He said this would be the only way the U. S. could keep its position consistent. Israel previously had an¬ nounced oniy that there had been withdrawals of its forces for varying lengths along the Egyptian front. This announce¬ ment did not make it clear whether the forces actually were removed from Egypt. But residents of Budapest ap- oeared more interested in what happened to Nagy. The Central Workers Counci! of Greater Budapest demanded a formal statement from the Kadar government on the fate of the popular Nagy. The council broke off its spas¬ modic talks with Kadar which were getting nowhere.
