Small Nations Group
Seeks Recognition
AT Peace Talks
BY UNITED PRESS

LONDON, Sept 28.-The For.
eign Ministers Council faced the
threat of a revolt of the small
nations" today as the Big Five met
twice without any sign of an ex.
pected adjournment.
Support was growing fo- the
little powers block headed by Aus.
tralian External Affairs Minister
Herbert V. Evatt, who earlier this
week blasted the Big Five policy
of virtually excluding the small ma
tons from a voice in making the
peace.
The daily communique said the
Council discussed the French
memorandum on the cont-ol ano
administration Of Germany and
listened to reports from their
deputies on matters previously re.
ferred to them by the Foreign
Ministers.
The Council scheduled another
meeting for tomorrow morning
and it was believed that the cur.
rent session might last through
Sunday before the difficult task
of framing final communique or
the parley's accomplishments is
completed to the satisfaction of all
Meanwhile adherents gatheri1e
around Evatt included not only
his fellow-statesman of the British
dominions but countries like
Greece, which was indignant al
not being asked to participate in
the discussions on the Italian
peace treaty.
Evatt had demanded particular.

to occupy the Ministers at their
next session in late November or

Hindu, Moslem Leaders
Exerting Pressure
To Stop Riots Z

BOMBAY, Sept. 28.-(P)-Hindu
and Moslem leaders apparently
were exerting pressure today to
end the communal strife which
continued sporadically, raising the
toll Of victims to 10 dead and at
least 20 injured.
There was no resurgence Of or.
ganized rioting. Police announced
160 persons had been arrested in
connection with the disorders with
more than so charged with carry
ing weapons Illegally.
Thousands of Moslems attended
prayer at Mosques this afternoon
and dispersed without incident.
Leaders urged them to hurry
home quietly. Police guarded the
Mosques in anticipation of clashes
there.
A mysterious fire Quilted the Cir
guam Mosque, 50-year-old Moslem
house of worship, but the trustee
there said simply: Our neighbors
are Hindus. They are our friends.
They help us feed the poor people
who come here
One knitting victim was found
dead this afteroon, and another
succumbed in a hospital. Three
coolies were stabbed when they
went to grain ration depot for
food. Police dispersed groups OF
Moslems and Hindus, armed with
stones, shouting threats at each
other from opposite sides of the
street.
GA Reuters dispatch from Bonn
bay said police had opened fire at
two points in northern Bombay to
dispense crowds.
Police said the military had no
active part yet in maintaining
order.

PATTON C0NFERS
WITH HIS CHIEF

FRANKFURT On the Main, Sept.
% p Summoned by his chief,
Gen. George S. Patton, Jr., report
ed personally on the Identification
program in Bavaria today in a
conference with Gen. Eisenhower
lasting two hourc and 20 minutes.
Jovial and smiling, P a t o n
emerged from headquarters with
Eisenhower and posed for pic
lures.
Eisenhower said he had no state
ment to make, and remarked there
was nothing unusual in his con-
ference with one of his Army com.
manders.
Informed officers declared that
reports (not carried by the Associ-
ated Press that Patton might be
relieved by Eisenhower were I'M
founded gossip mongering."
Patton invited one photographer
to visit the Third Army and show
him how to operate some of his
cameras, explaining II am an anna.
teur camera FAM
Patton, in charge of the military
administration of Bavaria, was cal.
ed to report in person after telling
a press conference Saturday that
he believed it might be necessary
to keep some former Nazi party
members in responsible positions
for a while to ENSURE ourselves
that women. children, and old men
will not perish from hunger or cold
this winter"
Eisenhower had ordered that Ma.
zis be removed "ruthlessly from
public office, regardless of general
efficiency"
Criticism also arose over Pattons
remark to newsmen that: ''this
Nazi fight, in some ways, is like
the Democratic and Republican
fight back home. You always find
the outs back home making
charges against the Gins" In a
subsequent conference, Patton said
that had been an unfortunate an.
alogy." The Third Army commander
also said he was carrying out
Eisenhower's orders with vigor
and loyalty.

ADMIRAL HALSEY
ASKS RETIREMENT

PEARL HARBOR, Sept. 2S.-W
Admiral Halsey, the Third Fleet
commander who vigorously car.
ried out his favorite motto-"Kill
Japs, Sink Ships"-announced to-
day he had asked for retirement
at 62 to make room for younger
officers.
The sharp-tongued, weather
beaten officer who was at sea when
Pearl Harbor was attacked and
was cast in a fighting role with
but few rest periods throughout
the war said:
I'm an old man, let the young
fellows take over.
The man whose naval forces
escorted the Carrier Hornet for the
Jimmie Doolittle raid on Japan
April 10, 1942-and who was OH
the Battleship Missouri when ia
pan signed the surrender-said the
Navy had not yet taken him into
its confidence on whether his ap-
plication had been acted upon.
Gn Washington, the Navy De-
partment said no request for retire
ment had been received.)
Nor did the Admiral who spark
ed the drive clearing the japanese
Navy from the Pacific have any
particular plans for the future.

plates on his car. He was fined five
marks and sentenced to a day in
jail.
Goebbels' folder was thickest. II
showed 20 convictions for insults
and sentences ranging from 20
marks and four days to 1000 marks
or so days in jail. The record con.
coded Goebbels' eloquence but po-
lice decided in 1926 he didn't rate
so well with Hitler.''
Goering's file was made up OF
only five cards which showed no
arrests.
The contents of the folder on Hit
Ter gave the impression the Berlin
police were looking for something

NUEVO LAREDO, Mex, Sept. %
- W.H - Border authorities arrest
ed 20 Mexicans today and said that
thus a gang specializing in human
smuggling and wholesale murder
was broken up.
Emilio Villa1obos, Mexican Fed
eral prosecutor here, said the gang
was responsible for the deaths OF
at least SO Mexican nationals, and
possibly even more.
Bodies of the SO had been re-
covered from the waters of the Rio
Grande since late July. Thirty-sev-
en- were men.
The prosecutor believed that all
of the victims were farm workers
who had been struggled across the
river to work for lucrative wages
in the fruit and vegetable fields
on the American side.

-51st street at Rockefeller

A mysterious philanthropist
has been throwing between
81 and $40 in. change from the
18th or 18th floor of the Inter-

showers have been coming

Today was no exception. A
crowd of about 100 was on
hand. Including some "regu-
lasr."
Joseph Walker, 57-year-old
Negro doorman at a nearby
club, picked up SIPS today and
said he averaged at least so
cents a day.
Some passersby we're worried
about being struck on the

the regulars: "Let 'em keep

they want to-"
