Anti Coup Set

By United Press
VIENNA, June 12.-An anti
Fascist coup, with the tacit APP
proval of King Boris, is in prepa-
ration in Bulgaria, and may be
launched at any time to overthrow
the government of Premier Kimon
Gheorghieff, high diplomatic sources
reported today.
Gheorghieff took power by coup
May 10, claiming full support of the.
army. This report, according to to-
days information, is untrue.
The true situation, as outlined to
the United Press, was that Boris was
Inundated and angered by the
Gheorgieff coup, and is said to have
argued that in weakening his own
prestige as an impartial symbol of
national authority, the coup only
lent encouragement and Justification
to Communists who might plan
coup themselves.

LONDON. Aug. 11.-UPl-
For the first time since the Boil
shevik revolution in November,
1917. Anglo-Soviet relations are
growing cordial. For II years
thew have wavered between Arc
tic GOODNESS and open hostility. 1t
is too early to predict that the
newly created warmth between
them will last, but there is no
doubt that it is now felt.
Foundation for this improve
ment was laid last February
when Britain and Russia conclud-
ed an important trade agree
ment. providing that the balance
of commerce between them, which
had heretofore been three or four
to one in Russia's favor, should
be approximately equalized by the
end of four years. 1t was only
eight months previous to this &C
cord that both nations had been
engaged in bitter trade war, start
ed by commercial embargoes
against each other.
A further gesture of amlty was
noted early in July when, for the
first time, high Red army officer
came to Britain as the official
guest of the government. General
Alxnis, chief of the Soviet Air
Force, came to London, was seat
ed in the Royal Enclosure (an
unusual distinction) at the Hen
don air display and was later re-
ceived privately by Lord London
derry, air minister. 1t was an
nounced later that Russia would
purchase a number of aeroplane
models in Britain.
At about the same time, the
commissar for foreign affairs,
Maxim Litvinov. and the British
ambassador in Moscow. Lord Chill
ston, signed a protocol, providing
for the exchange of military at
taches at the respective embas-
sizes in London and Moscow. Rep
resentatives of the armed forces
of both powers had not been ex-
changed since the Car was over
thrown.
Most important of all, however,
were three speeches delivered in
the House of Commons on July
IA, when Foreign Secretary Sir
John Simon announced that Bri-
tain favors the Soviet's entry into
the League of Nations and be-
slowed Britain's blessing on the
proposed Eastern European pact
of mutual assistance, sponsored

MINNEAPOLIS, Aug. II. -
(UP) Martial law in Minneapolis
was upheld this morning by 4
three-judge federal court decision
filed in United States district
court here.
The decision was a victory for
the strikers.
The judges denied the petition
of two groups of employers for
a temporary injunction and re-
straining order which would have
stopped Governor Floyd Olson
fro reinforcing martial law.
The petitions protested that
military rule is unwarranted and
is paralyzing business. Employ
ers refused to comment on the
results of the court action.
Their attorneys are undecided
as to what action to take.
Federal mediators had hoped
that the verdict would open the
way for negotiations to a settle
