 Toward Peace
Russion Criticizes Questions Raised By U. 5. Leoders

London, Nov. 6 - CUP) - Soviet Foreign Commissar V. M Molotov today charged that policies being advocated in the West on such mat ters as large military establishments and atomic. energy are directed against other powers" and have nothing in common" with keep ing the peace.
 Speaking at an anniversary cele- bration of the Bolshevik Revolution, Molotov declared that there were no technical secrets involved in the atom bomb which could long be held by any one country or small group of countries.
 Policies, he charged, have been pursued in the West which are "di- rected against other powers"
 Distinguishes Interests
 '"The interests of keeping the peace have nothing in common with the policy of arming the main pow CTS which are being urged in some countries" he said. This can also be stated of the discovery of atomic energy
 He declared that all the forces of Fascism have not been fully destroy ed.
 Atomic energy" he said, ''has not yet been tried out either for the prevention of aggression or for the safeguarding of peace. But in the present time no major technical secrets are possible which can re- main in the possession of a sole

Aboard Admiral Barbey's Flag ship, of the North China Coast, Nov. 6-(UP)-The Red Army has thwarted American plans to land Chinese Nationalist forces at the Manchurian port of Yingkow by abandoning it to Chinese Commit nists.
 Chinese Nationalist sources charged that the Soviet garrison deliberately pulled out of Yipgkow five days ahead of schedule to per- init Chinese Communist troops to fortify it against a Nationalist land ing.
 The Nationalists said that an agreemen negotiated by the Gen. tr government with the Soviet command Oct. 29 at Hsinking pro- vided for the Red Army to remain at Yingkow until Nov. 10 to guar antee a safe landing" by Nationalist troops.
 The mission returned to Barbey to report. Barbey probably will de- eide his next move after a confer ence with It. Gen. Tu Li-Ming, Na- tionalist commander for Manchuria.

Allies Reveal ItoIion Terms
 Provisions Made
 Obsolete Quickly

Washington, Nov. 6-UP)-The Allies made public today the long suppressed Italian armistice terms under which Pietro Badoglio surren- dered internationally in the fall Of 1943 and turned over Italy lock, stock and barrel to the Allies.
 But documents accompanying the Armistice text revealed that the terms never were completely in- yoked and, for all major practical purposes, were abrogated last Feb ruary
 Italy's eNrly assumption of the role of co-belligerent on the Allied side after quitting the Axis many of the armistice terms obsolete,
 Under the original terms, Italy surrendered her political, military, economic and financial sovereignty to the Allies. The Allies never found it necessary to take adyan- tage Of their broad authority and under an "aide MemoFie" of last Feb 24, virtually restored sovereign ty to the Italian government even before negotiation of peace treaty,
 The armistice docments made no reference to territorial settlement or separations, leaving both for the final peace treaty. But it called for Italy to pay all occupation costs an impractical step which had to be modified and followed by extension of U. s. credits to the Italian government instead.
 The arlnistice tefns-subjeet Of much debate and speculation during their more than two years of secrecy were released simultaneously to- day by the American, British and Italian governments. The other in- terested nations, including Soviet Russia, were advised of the move in advance.

Planned Act In Zukouskos Case Argued
 Defense Claims
 Mon Was Gooded
 By Womon's Tounts

Pleading for the life of Francis Zukauskas, former local Supernum- erary policeman, in the State Su- preme Court of Errors, in Hartford, Public Defender Edward T. Car mony argued today that the shoot ing of Mrs. Stephanie Plungls was "an act of rage, done suddenly and in a fit of anger and pas sion" without reconciliation.
 Zukauskas was "goaded by taunts from the woman and distracted by the realization that his life's am bition to become a full-fledged po- liceman was now shattered a nd his acts showed 'indecision, i'm provisation and complete lack of any formulated plan,' Carmody claimed.
 The prosecution claimed the trial courts conclusions that the killing was deliberate, premedi- tated and intentional "are not simply very logical and reasonable but al- most unacceptable" It was cold blooded murder" the state charges.
 Seeks Death Suspension
 Lengthy arguments OH Ille du- mission of confessions by zukauskas were offered at the death-penalty appeal hearing, which opened short ly after 10:30 a. m. in the high court in Hartford.
 In accordance with it's customary procedure, the Supreme Court re" served decision. It is estimated that a ruling will be given within four to eight weeks.
 Zukauskas was sentenced to death last February by three Su- perior Court judges, following a three-week trial. Mrs. Plungis, mother of two children was slain Nov. l, 1914 and her bullet-ridden, naked body was found three days later in a shallow grave i'll Middle bury woods.
 Two separate shootings occurred. One of them took place in front of the Zukauskas home on Alder street shortly after 10:30 on the night of November l, and the other on Bradley avenue, about an hour later. Several neighbors talked to Mrs. Plungis after the first shooting and all admitted at the

Apathy Still Election Atmosphere
 Monogon Forces
 Predict Majority
 Of 5000 BoIIots

About 30,00O or 31 900 voters were expected to comprise the days total balloting which. would seem indica- tive of another victory for. Mayor John s. Monagan and the entire Democratic administration. Two years ago total of 27,000 was cast to assure victory for the Democrats.
 People entering the city's 32 poll ing places today seemed quietly determined and certain as to how they were to vote, with little or no delay.
 Democrats Move Ahead
 The nominally Democratic dis tricts were producing the usual steady vote at press time today. These consist of 4-3, 4-3, A, 3-5, 3-8, 1-1, 5-1, 5-2, 5-3. Republican strongholdS such as 1-6, 2-3, 3-l, 3-2, 3-3 and 3-4 also seemed to be steady.
 The majority of districts reported holding -its-own" result with the vote being light in but very few polling places. The majority were average and more than a few re- pOrl6Q D6dVleT vote.
 Mayor John s. Monagan ap- peared at the Temple Hall polling place at 2-1 shortly after opening time this morning to cast his vote. Confident and optimistic. he felt as- sured of victory for his adminis- tration.
 COP mayoralty candidate Ray mond E. Snyder and Mrs. Snyder appeared at 2-2, Driggs school, al about 9:15 a. m. MT. Snyder pre- dicted a Republican victory.
 Party Quarters Quiet
 Party headquarters, particularly for the Democrats, were quieter than usual with the majority of vot- CTS appearing at the polling places in their own cars. The Democrats were said to have far more strength than their opponents.
 Just what the people thought in general as they went to the polls to- day was anyone's guess. The issues such as they were throughout all the campaigning, were vague and nebulous, with the Democrats Stand- ing on their record and the Repub- leans taking but sporadic shots at that record.
 There were few issues which the people took to heart. There is still a reasonable amount of security pre- valent; healthy amount of employ- ment; the war is over as far as the grim bloody fighting is concerned and many loved ones are returning home. You just don't get excited about a park department, or a po- liceman working as a janitor and such similar issues brought up by the Republicans in comparison.
 Civic Duty Prevalent
 However, those who went to the polls two years ago in the very midst of wars concern apparently are appearing again today, added

On V-Day, when fighting ends and the peoples of a plundered world begin shouting their joy and gratitude in thousand tongues, aerial bombs and floating mines are going to seem pretty cheap. All treacherous. and destructive ma chimes will appear in their right light again. Their values will show as minus quantities. Then slow, cautious men will set to work getting rid of them.
 But there are instruments of war more treacherous than float ing mines, more ruinous than any block-buster ever devised.

 We note that upon the suggestion of Alaska Dele gate E. L. Bartlett and others that Secretary of the Interior Harold l.. Ic- kes has changed the name of the Alaska Indian Ser vice" to the Alaska Na- tive Service"
 We have been under the impression that the name of the office has been for some time the Alaska Off, flee of. Indian Affairs.
 This has been done be- cause the office, whatever it's correct name has been, serves not only Indians but also Aleuts and Eskimos.
 However, the word, na- tive, correctly means an inhabitant of a certain re- zion who has been born in that region, and therefore the term in Alaska would take in a good many whites who are natives of Alaska.
 At any rate, we don't think the old name troub- led the Eskimo or the .Aleut a great deal.
