C., WEDNESDAY, APRIL 23, 1947 " * ~~ ‘ ~~ ~ -ESTABLISHED 186; Big Four May End Session Ministers See Little Hope For Treaties Unless Soviets Concede MOSCOW, April 22— (JP) —The United States, British and French Foreign ministers waited tonight lor Soviet Russia either to make concessions on the Austrian treaty and German question or shut the door on the Moscow conference. Following another inconclusive secret session devoted, to the Aus trian treaty today, the four for eign ministers decided to turn to morrow to final consideration of stalemated German questions. Several sources said three se cret meetings of Austria had not definitely ended hope that agre ment on f. treaty might be reach ed, but at the same time had fail ed to break the deadlock on vital issues. Soviet Foreign Minister V. M. Molotov has not met Western views on these questions, it was reported, but at the same time has not completely rejected them, leaving the deliberations hanging in the air. Lp To Molotov I[ any settlement is to be reach ed on Austria Molotov will have to take the initiative with concrete proposals, the informants added. About the best that was hoped from the German discussions was that there would be sufficient ba sis of agreement to keep the for eign ministers deputies working between this council meeting- and the next. Even this modest hope was not too robust, since the dep uties on German questions have made virtually no progress since their session last winter - in Lon don. The foreign ministers have not even agreed on the procedure for writing the German treaty, and the deputies cannot do much con structive until they know what na tions are entitled to be represent ed on advisory commitees and what powers these committees are to exercise. The Russians still insist on a limited participation in the treaty making, but on the inclusion of Albania. The United States and Britain have remained firm on full participation by 18 nations, plus the big four, and the exclu sion of Albania. U. S. Secretary of State George C. Marshall even has proposed that the treaty mak ing be opened to 50 nations. The whole session was summed up by one delegate without diplo matic trimmings. He said, ‘‘this conference is a mess.” FBI FINDS CACHE OF STOLEN GUNS Army Weapons Found On Maryland Estate When G-Men Raid Place SAVANNAH, Ga„ April 22—(U.R) —The FBI announced tonight the recovery of 21 stolen army ma chine-guns in a raid on an estate near Ellicott City, Md., and named three men as the thieves.

Dogs following the attackers’ scent led them from the orange grove to the Yemenite community of Rehovot. The com munity was surrounded and all in habitants screened and question ed. The attack was believed carried out by a mixed group of Irgun Zvai Leurni and Stern gang ex tremists who have sworn to avenge the execution of four . of their members by a 10 to one toll.

J. Bayard Clark. . Clark’s resolution, presented to the House’s public works commit tee, asked the committee to re quest a review of the channel by the board of engineers for rivers and harbors.

Clark’s resolution requested ihat an outlet be provided from the inland waterway by the way of Masonboro inlet. He said that he was “very hope ful” that the committee would act favorably on the resolution and, “authorize the board of en gineers to go ahead with the re view.” The resolution also called for deepening of the inland waterway from Beaufort to the Cape Fear river including the water to Jack sonville, N.

The house originally had voted to require liquidation of the pro gram by the end of this year. The compromise grants an addi tional 30 days after the end of 1947 to close out the books._ Jewish Agency, Hebrew Group Both Seek To Represent Race LAKE SUCCESS, N. Y„ April 22—(£>)—'The official Jewish agen cy for Palestine and the Hebrew Committee of National liberation made rival claims tonight for the right to represent the Jews in the special Palestine session of the United Nations assembly. This new issue developed as the Arab states lined up solidly be hind a proposal for immeidate consideration of Palestine’s inde pendence at the extraordinary ses sion opening next Monday. Iraq, Syria and Lebanon sub mitted’ requests identical with yes terday’s Egyptian demand that the assembly’s agenda be broad ened to include immediate action to terminate Britain’s League of nations mandate over the Holy Land. The conflict in the Jewis camp came \ynen me neorew committee—not recognized by the official agency — disclosed it had sent a note to Secretary-General Trygve Lie asking that an addi tional item be placed on the agen da providing: 1— That a Hebrew national dele gation be granted a seat in the assembly with full power to par ticipate in the deliberations on a non-voting basis. 2— That the Hebrew Committee of National liberation be authoriz ed to constitute the delegation. The agency, official voice of Palestine Jews, immediately chal lenged the right of the Hebrew committee to speak for the Jews and countered with a formal re quest that the agency be desig nated as the authorized represen tative. Receipt of the requests from the Jewish agency and the Hebrew committee posed several questions for the assembly, since that body has no rules covering action on communications from non-govern mental agencies. The first step will be to decide what status should be given to the communica tions. If the assembly decides to recognize them, then it will have to determine first of all whether tlie Jews should be given a voice in the assembly and next who should represent the Jews. As for the Arab move for im mediate action to declare Pales tine independent, a preliminary survey indicated the United States and Britain could muster enough support to prevent the Arabs from getting the necessary two thirds majority. They insist, along with several other countries, that the agenda should be confined to the original British proposal for the establishment of a fact - finding committee to prepare for final ac tion at the September meeting of the assembly. _ Gorilla Mauls Keeper In Movie Horror Style PHILADELPHIA, April 22 — (#) — The Philadelphia zoo’s 400 pound, 21-year-old gorilla — Bam boo — broke out of his cage to day, mauled a keeper in movie horror fashion and then fled back behind the bars as a stream of water was sprayed on his face. The keeper, Ralph Davis, suf fered lacerations of the scalp and injuries to the body after Bamboo, s'ipped through an open tunnel door leading to the outside cage the keeper was cleaning, picked him up and. carried -him to a yard arour.d the monkey house, witnesses said. Shouts from other keepers frightened the huge gorilla, caus ing him to drop Davis who im mediately dashed back through the cage door. Fortunately, witnesses said Bamboo didn’t follow. Then a fir* hose was rigged up and the full blast of the water aimed at the Gorilla’s face. He jumped back into his outside cage, leaving the yard where no large monkey is ever permitted. Later he went through the tunnel door into his indoor cell. Military Aid Is Approved Vandenberg Leads GOP Controlled Chamber In Defeating Opposition WASHINGTON, April 22—(>P)— rhe Senate stamped approval, 67 to 23, today on a momentous new departure in U. S. foreign policy by voting a $400,000,000 fund to stiffen Greece and Turkey against Communism. The bill, which provides financial and limited military assistance to these two strategic nations, now goes to the House, where the Foreign affairs committee has ap proved a similar measure. Before the Senate vote, Senator Edwin C. Johnson (D-Colo.) sought in vain to strike out a provision that President Truman may send military mission* to Greece, and Turkey to instruct their armies in the use of military equipment to be furnished. The vote against him was 68 to 22. Led by Senator Vandenberg (R Mich.), the GOP-controlled Sen ate bowled over vocal but numeri cally weak opposition to the new policy laid dowm by President Tru man in a March 12 addTess to Congress. Through five hours of torrid debate before voting began on amendments late in the after noon, opponents assailed the Tru man plan as one which would “destroy” the United Nations, in vite retaliation by Russia and roll up tremendous expenditures which might bankrupt this nation. “Green Light” Replying, Vandennerg told his colleagues that if Congress fails to act “aggression gets the green light and the rest of the world, including America, gets the red light.” Vandenberg called “in flammable” statements by Sen ator Johnson that the program can lead only to war with Rus sia. "That statement, which has been made repeatedly by the Senator from Colorado, is an invitation to the precise disaster that thia bi (Continued on Page Two, Col. 3) AFL WILL FIGHT LAWS WITH ADS President Green Announc es $1,500,000 Campaign In Newspapers WASHINGTON, April 22 —VP)— The AFL tonight launched a SI. 500,000 advertising campaign to combat what it called “repressive and restrictive” labor legislation. A five-man committee was ap pointed to assess the 7,500,000 mem bers of the AFL at least 15 cents each to finance the campaign. Full page advertisements will be run in newspapers generally throughout the nation, AFL Presi dent William Green told a news conference. Green said the campaign would be intensified as the Congress works out a compromise between the House-approved Hartley bill and the measure written by the Senate Labor committee. Senate debate begins tomorrow. The AFL executive council, meet ing here this week, issued a lengthy statement attacking the proposed legislation aimed * curbing labor union activities. Invasion Of Liberty “The provisions in the pending legislation which would restore government by injunction consti tute a direct invasion of funda mental American liberty,” the executive council said. “The black history of the abuses of the labor injunction by the courts in the past should serve »s a bar against its future employ ment. To make kings of judges, as a recent decree — more royalistic than judicial — permitted, is re pugnant to a free America.’ Green told his news conference this reference was to the recent injunction issued at the gove: n ment’s request by Judge T. A.ari Goldsborough against John L. Lewis’ United Mine workers wnen they walked out last Nov. 21. And So To Bed Yesterday afternoon a couple of newspapermen, visiting in a nearby community, wandered into a cafe for lunch. After taking a table the men talked for nearly an hour, but the waitress seemed to ignore the customers. She was too s busy playing the piccolo. Finally the members of the fourth estate gave up and as they passed the cash register each took a toothpick. “Thank you gentlemen," the waitress said, “Come back again soon.” The men still are puzzled as to why they were not served. | ... and both were clean ahaven too.
