Byrnes Awaits Soviet
And British Reaction
BY GARNETT d. HORNER.

The United States today awaited
Russian and British reaction to a
proposal for joint Big Three action
to help young King Michael of Ro-
mania establish government salts
factory to the three principal Allies
Secretary of State Byrnes an
nounced yesterday that the Ro-
manian King had asked such as
sistance and that the United States
had notified Russia and Britain it
was ready to consult with them at
"the earliest time" convenient to
them.
The Romanian appeal brought to
the fore the third tense political
situation developing in the Balkans
since adjustment of Polish govern
mental troubles to challenge the
abilities of the Big Three to carry
out their Yalta Conference pledge
to work together in helping the
people form broadly representative"
governments in European liberated
countries or former Axis satellites.
Send Observers to Greece.
The United States and Britain
have announced they do not con-
slider ARRANGEMENTS for elections in
Bulgaria next Sunday guarantee a
free expression of the peoples will,
and are joining with France In
sending commissions OF observers
to assist in forthcoming Greek cleo
tions.
Russia has appeared satisfied with
the Bulgarian arrangements and
has refused to participate in OBJ
servation of the Greek elections on
the ground that such action is un-
warranted interference in the al
fairs of a sovereign state.
Mr.. Byrnes appeared confident
Russia would join in consultation
on the Romanian request, but said
he had no reason to believe the
Soviet government would favor any
move to post Allied election observ-
ers there.
Problems of Different Type.
He made it clear, however, that
the problems presented in Romania
and Greece are OF different types
and indicated he did not expect any
question of observing elections In
Romania to arise.
The Secretary explained that he
would much rather have free
press observe elections in the Bal
kans than have some one appointed
to do it, and added that as a result
of agreements at the Potsdam Con-
ference he had no doubt Amer
ican and other Allied correspondents
would be able to move freely and
report without censorship through
out Soviet dominated Eastern
Europe.
In a formal statement, Mr..
-Byrnes emphasized that the Ro-
manian request was based on a
Big Three Yalta agreement to
Jointly assist" liberated European
peoples whenever necessary to
form interim governments broad
.ly representative of all democratic
elements in the population and
pledged to the earliest possible
establishment through free elec-
tions of governments responsive
to the will of the people"
He said the United States could
not recognize the present Roman
ian government because it was not
considered adequately representa-
tive of all important elements Of
democratic opinion"

London-Russia denounced it's neutrality pact with Japan, ac- cusing Tokyo of helping Ger many iu the war against Russia, Moscow radio announced. Molo- ftov informed the Japanese am bassador that continuance of tue compact was impossible since Japan is fighting against Russla's allies. the United States and Great Britain.
 S'In such a situation the pact of neutrality between Japan and the VSSR has lost it's meaning" Moiotov said.
 The note was handed to the Jap ambassador at } pm Thurs. in the midst of a new Jap cabin ct crisis The pact was signed April, 1941.
 Watcher Russia would de- nounce it before the opening of the World Security conference at San Francisco has been the sub  ject of speculation. The treaty would ordinarily have run unt l April, 1946 aud the danounce ment becomes effective April 13 (next Fridav). There was no m dication in the Moscow an nouncement of Russia's inten- tions in future relations with Japan. However, Stalin has pub. licly described Japan as an Gag gressor nation".

breathes," Slade said. "But we
will accomplish our main objec-
tive of focusing the attention of
poultrymen on the benefits OF
selecting breeding stock for
meat type characteristics, as
wella s for their egg-producins
ability" With Slade, the chicken
comes before the egg.
WORKING TOO HARD
Slade said the chickens had
been working so hard at laying
eggs that they had become posi-
lively hollow-chested." He wants
farmers to concentrate on build
ing up meat production as well
As egg output.
There's an over-abundance OF
eggs now, anyway, he said.
That's why the committee wants
to catch the growers before
their chickens have egged them
into another depression.
"The ultimate goal Is to put
at least 10 per cent more edible
meat on the average chicken"
SHADES said. 1T must grow fast
er on less feed for economical
production, and must be able to
reproduce.
1--WE expect to see striking
difference in chickens in 10
years. They'll probably look
more like ballons than fowl"
