The crux of tne disagreement there is Russian insistence that Austria’s oil and shipping inter ests, backbone of her economy, are German assets and therefore subject to reparations. The United Slates holds the view that yield ing on that point would give Rus sia economic—and eventually po litical-control of Austria. Italy stands in the same posi tion as Romania, Bulgaria and Hungary with their treaties await ing Moscow’s signing. Under these conditions the Soviet Union cannot hope to get its satellites into the organization without also approving Italy. Failed In 1946 In addition to the necessity of avoiding a veto, seven of the 11 council votes are necessary for approval of a candidate. In the 1846 tests Albania mustered five votes and Outer Mongolia six. Britain and tbe United States both voted no, but were not required to exercise tile veto as both bids foiled of passage regardless. Both British and American sources indicated their govern ments felt that Albania had cer tainly not improved her standing in the eyes of the world during the past year. For one thing, the Albanian government so far has refused to submit the Corfu chan nel mining case, where she was accused of damaging two British ships, to the International Court of Justice as directed by the coun cil. Recent clashes between troops from China and Soviet-sponsored Outer Mongolia have not helped the case of the rugged Asiatic country either. Last year China voted to admit that neighbor. Nanking’s attitude this time will be watched by the Western pow ers for possible guidance on their decision. There was still an ouiside pos sibility that the United States would reiterate its original stand of last year when it asked for the blanket admission of all appli cants. Russia quickly opposed that on the grounds that she could not approve Ireland, Portugal and Trans-Jordan because they had no diplomatic relations with Mos cow.

MARSHALL Continued From Page One session of the rules committee and later adopted by the plenary ses sion provided that the organiza tion to supervise recovery be a temporary one, and that it take no action “implying” any viola tion of sovereignty. The original British-French draft merely prohibited “actions” which violated sovereignty. Taking the floor before the con ference voted or, its rules of pro cedure, Karl Ivan Westman, Swe den’s envoy to Paris, said it was of utmost importance that the new organization fully respect the independence and sovereignty of member nations. Russia had refused to partici pate in thfe conference on grounds that economic cooperation would constitute a threat to her sover eignty, and eight other Eastern states in the Soviet sphere of in fluence followed suit. Hails Changes Westman hailed modifications of the original British-French draft as “indispensable and fortunate,” and expressed regret it had not been possible to unite all Euro pean nations at the conference table. He said the admittance of all 16 participating nations to the steering committee was “most im portant,” and emphasized that Sweden was ready to discuss only the problems in the text of the British-French invitation to the meeting—that is, only economic issues. He suggested the rules have permitted a “deeper ex change of views.” Norwegian delegate Arne Skaug seconded Westman, saying Nor way would approve the rules com mittee’s report only with the un derstanding the conference would have a chance later to debate is sues of principle which were not within the committee’s jurisdic tion. J. C. W. Kruse, Danish ambas sador to Paris, backed up both the Swedish and Norwegian state meats. French Foreign Minister Georges Bidault intervened to point out that the rules committee’s work was strictly technical, and said he hoped the three Scandinavian countries were satisfied by chang es written into the original draft. “The door is always open to other states,” Bidault said. Bevin, as presiding officer, then called for a vote ann found no ob jections. Expresses Regret Spokesmen for Denmark, Greece and Eire closed the session with general statements on their na tions’ policies. Bidault, speaking earlier in Charmbery at the dedication of a monument to heroes of the re sistance. expressed his govern ment’s “deep regret that Russia refused to participate in the Mar shall program.-’ “But the French government does not believe that the Soviet government Is excluded,” he add ed. “We have invited the Rus sian government to take part in the present conference. The seats of all the absentees are reserved, whatever their provisional answer, not only at the conference, not only in the first organization com mittee, but also in the final or ganizations of an associated Eu rope. “Of course, the Soviet attitude cannot excuse us from going on. Time is running out; necessities will not wait. We must act, or ganize, build, help ourselves with the collaboration of all those who wish to participate, while hoping that all others will join us. “The family table must not be closed to any European. “I agree this union of Europe means a very close association, a mutual limitation of sovereignty by the obligations which any com mon agreement implies. “But no hegemony should be es tablished while European recovery is on its way. It is the law of equality and cooperation which must become the common rule.” The Indian name for Tucson, Ariz., was Stjukshon, which has been Variously translated to mean “dark spring” and “at the foot of a black hill.” —FOR— CORRECT TIME Call 2-3575 —FOR— Correct Jewelry nsrr ieMBox i^ilBEnanM.juuup.'irnnrawK A2?'
