Russia Claims Anglo-American Stand
on Balkan Issues Imperil Cooperation

American stand on the Balkan
peace issue impsriled the. whole
foundation OF cooperation among
the Big Three.
Radio Moscow broadcast an edi-
torial from IZvestia blaming the
American and British delegations
for the failure of the five-power
Foreign Ministers Conference in
London.
Izvestia charged that L. S. Secre-
tary OF State James +. Byrnes
and British Foreign Secretary Ern-
est Bevin departed from the rules
Of procedure laid down by the
Potsdam agreement when they in
sisted that France and perhaps Chi
ma should have a voice in framing
the Balkan peace treaties.
TIE editorial said it was impos-
sible to oyer-estimate the serious
ness OF the failure, Of the London
conference.
"If the United States and British
representative in the future in
sist on their position-which can
in no way be reconclled with the
authenticity of the tripartite agree
ment-then the foundation of coop.

will be shaken" the editorial said.
Soviet Foreign Commissar V. VI.
Molotov contended for Stain that
the Potsdam agreement specified
that only those countries which
signed the surrender terms couiG
participate in framing the peace
treaty. This would bar France and

Byrnes has proposed as com

accepted the proposal, but Russia
