Security
Continued From First Page }

This is bluntly opposed by the big
powers.
/ 3. A Cuban proposition that the
Security Council be enlarged from
IL member nations, provided under
Dumbarton Oaks, to IA or IS, was
debated in the committee on the
council yesterday but decision was
delayed pending further study.
The same general issue of the
councils powers was tied into the
acknowledgements dispute over re-
gional security arrangements which
has split the United States delega-
tlcn down the middle.
Senator Vandenberg, Republican
OF Michigan promised the Regional
Arrangements Committee last night
! that an American plan would be
drawn up as soon as possible, and
the delegation scheduled another
discussion on the issue today.
Regional Issue Pushed.
Behind the United States dead
lock is increasing pressure from
Latin America for an Independent
security system in this hemisphere
This is repeatedly opposed by those
delegation members who contend
that if the World Security Council
Is to have any chance of success it
must be given full powers to act
anywhere in the world.
At news conference, British
Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden
called the issue of regional security
systems the most difficult remain
ing before the conference.
He said he could not yet see a
solution ahead, adding that Britain
felt regional pacts ARE valuable
in strengthening a world organi-
cation but cannot replace the world
organiza ton itself"
On the other big conference issue
how to govern the former enemv
territories of both world wars
the Big Five powers appeared to
be steadily approaching an agree
ment.
Russia and China yesterday sub
mltted trusteeship plans. These,
like that of the United States,
would provide for creating strategic
trusteeShips over Pacific islands and
other places having military i'm
portance. France intends no plan
OF its own on this subject, and the
British are reported nearing agree
ment with the United States con-
tention that strategic areas need
special treatment in order to allow
their development as Army and
Navy bases.
Russia was reported to have tossed
potentially explosive proposition
into the Committee on Trusteeships
last night. This would commit the
United Nations to the principle that
colonial peoples should be assured
of eventual independence - which
could become hot point of debate
for empire nations.
American officials had hoped to
avoid discussion of colonial ques-
lions here and to limit the whole
problem of dependencies to that OF
setting up machinery for controlling
former enemy territories.
The conference committees which
only this week had buckled down to
work on amendments to the Dunn
barton Oaks plan are working
swiftly over the % changes sub
mitted jointly by the United States,
Britain, China and Russia. One
adopted yesterday fixed advisory
qualifications for nations to be elect

ed by general assembly of all
United Nations to the Securit,
Council.
The Dumbarton Oaks program
provides there should be six of these
elective places on the council, on a
rotating basis, in addition to the
five seats to be held permanently by
the Big Five powers. The amend
ment now adopted states that these
six countries may be chosen % &C
cording to their ability to help main
tain world security and 90 accord
ing to their geographical locations
British Proposal Tempered.
Britain originally presented this
amendment to the other Big Four
nations to establish only the qualifi-
cation of military powers. United
States delegates argued that would
eliminate from the council all the
small countries, including many in
the Western Hemisphere. They sue
ceeded in watering the British pro-
posal down to the point of making
it advisory and in inserting the
geographical qualifications as we'll.
Mr.. Eden is expected to leave for
London this weekend. There were
rumorS that Mr.. Stettinius also
might leave the conference for a
quick trip to Washington, but these
were unconfirmed.
Some differences between the
other powers and Russia continued
to crop up inside the conference
The latest came over Russian pro-
poSal to have representatives of a
World Trade Union Congress, nom
governmental organization, sit with
the conference committee studying
means of social and economic CO.
operation among the nations.
The committee voted, Is to 3, to
admit the observers along with rep
resentatives of the International
Labor Office, a semi official organ
ization which was linked to the old
League OF Nations. Then the con-
ference Steering Committee in a
hastily summoned session vetoed the
action by a vote of 80 to TO- Mr..
Stettinius said this was done because
the only observers to be admitted
here are those with Government
connected agencies.

movements of both the military forces and civilians" the Water bury chaplain pointed out.
 Arriving at LaGuardia Field, Sum- day, from Letterman General hos pital, San Francisco, where he has been patient, Chaplain Shanahan said he felt he really was home when his train approached the Con- necticut line. AS he looked upon the attractive communities and the pie turesque Naugatuck Valley, he said he came to the conclusion after viewing more than half the world during the past several years that the two finest spots in the world were Connecticut and the area sur rounding San Francisco.
 He said he also thought how many thousand boys in the Pacific were looking forward to the same joy of homecoming. They're won- derfully patient, said Chaplain Shanahan. They anticipate, if Japan follows her present deter imitation of fighting to the last I llldkl, tllC war WILL LII tWo HUI years. Yet you rarely hear any com- plaints. though they're most anxious to get it over in hurry and get back to the States"
 A graduate of Crosby, "A, Father Shanahan attended Holy Cross Col lege, St. Andrew Jesuit Seminary, and Woodstock College in Maryland where he studied philosophy. In 1929, he sailed for Manila to serve aA teacher at Ateneo De Manila, re- turning to Weston College, Weston, Mass, in 1926 to study for his ordin- ation.
 He taught rhetoric at Holy Cross college from 1891 to 1939, and re- turned to the Manila college in 1889. Upon arriving in Melbourne, Aus tralia, following his evacuation from the Philippines in January, 1942, with the American wounded, Chap lain Shanahan served approximate ly two and half years as assistant to the chief chaplain there. He was commissioned as chaplain in March of 1942 and advanced to his present rank July 5, 1943, at Sydney, Australia.
 The Waterbury chaplain returned to the people he came to love so well two days after the first Ameri- can troops invaded Leyte. When Manila was liberated, he assisted the 37 divisions in carrying food and supplies to the many thousands who had been interned since 1941 at San Mateos prison.
 Stricken With Fever
 Father Shanahan was stricken with typhoid fever in March, and after capitalization in the Philip pines was shipped to San Francisco for treatment.
 And though Maj Shanahan, like millions of American CTS out in the Pacific awaiting the big push to Tokyo, does not look forward to a quick victory over the Rising Sun, he did stress his faith in General Macarthur. Hes the greatest leader of all time,' he declared with emphasis.

co-worker of the slain man for the purpose of showing Cyr's reputation as to temper and violence. The wit ness was heard in the absence of the jury and the testimony was ruled out by Judge Cornell.
 In the statement given to the coroner, Coscia told of the encoun- ter which he had with Cyr in the cellar of their home on the morning of the staying. He also told of going for the gun to his second floor apart mert and coming downstairs and banging at the Cyr kitchen door. In that statement, he described the shooting.
 The statement was offered in part by the state to disprove Coscia s claim on direct testimony that Cyr had chased him upstairs to the sec- ond floor after the encounter in the cellar. The state is expected to call attention to absence in Coscia $ original statement or any reference to chase upstairs.
 The statement also was offered to refute the claim of the accused that the discharge of the gun was acci- dental.

ing, testified that Coscia made oral answers and also gave certain dem- onstrations. Those statements and demonstrations are expected to be made the subject of lengthy ques- tioning later during the states re- buttal.
 On cross-examination of the stenographers, Mascolo asked if any, one was present in behalf of the accused when Coscia made his statements. The witnesses named the persons who were present. The defense drew out testimony that no lawyer represented the accused dur ing tn questioning.
 Mrs. Treat testified that persons present on the afternoon of Septem- Der 23, when Smyth conducted an examination for an hour and 40 minutes, were Coscia, Policewoman Mary Norgren, Police Lieutenant Shanahan, Italian Interpreter Felix Braico, and Detective Laden. She testified Lieutenant William Foley and Braico were with Laden dur ing the questioning at the scene of the staying. Most of those persons are expected to be called later as the state rebuttal witnesses.
 Both stenographers testified that Coscia used both English and Ital- ian in giving his answers.
 Attorney Greco, in response to a question by Mascolo, stated he could not remember the precise Italian words given by Coscia in answer to questions.
 At the start of the reading Greco testified that the coroner told Cos cia he did not have to make any statement and that anything he might say would be- used against him. The statement to the coroner was given on the morning of the staying.

British Grob AIois Hitler

London, June 26-(UP)-A half- brother of Adolf Hitler and wom- an described as former German Foreign Minister Joachim Won Ribbentrop's mistress have been ar- rested in Hamburg by British occu- patton troops. a dispatch from Ger many said today.
 The woman arrested was the 35- year-old blonde divorcee with whom Ribbentrop was living when he was arrested in Hamburg earlier this month. She formerly was described as merely his ''landlady." Later evi- dence indicated she was an active NaI.
 The half-brother of Hitler was believed to be Alois Hitler, who ran a tavern in Berlin before the war, but British military authorities re- fused to confirm the Identification, the dispatch said.

gation is that it is wrong to con- demn in advance the grounds on which any state might find 1t neces- sary to exercise its right of with drawal from the organization" he said. Such right is an expression of state sovereignty and should not be reviled in advance by the Inter national Organization" But Gromyko sought no action on his comment other than 1t be in- cluded in the conference records request granted by Halifax. The reports of commission I, IT. III and " were unanimously adopt ed and Guillermo Belt of Cuba, ra- porteur of the steering committee, then presented his report asking adoption of CD the charter of the world organization, CD the statute of the new world court, and, (3) the agreement for establishment of a preparatory commission" to func- tion until the new organization meets.
 Halifax. citing the grave import ance of the vote about to be taken, asked the heads of delegations to stand to be counted instead of the usual raising of hands. He said:
 T would ask the heads of the del- egations to rise in their places in order to report their vote on an is- sue that, I think. is likely to be as important as any of us in our life time are ever likely to vote upon.
 The delegates stood and were counted by Secretary General Alger Hiss. When they were seated, Hali- fax asked:
 Any opposed?" None stood.
 T declare the charter adopted unanimously" Halifax said.
 It was then 10:50 p. m. PVT, June 26, 1945.
 Deafening Applause
 The jam-packed opera house burst into defeaning applause ac- companied by hurrahs from the bal cony.
 Earlier plans to have the nations sign the charter in alphabetical or- der were changed at the last minute without explanation. Such 8 plan would have given Argentina-a late conner to the ranks of the United Nations-the honor of signing first. The new order will be: China, So- viet Russia, United Kingdom, France, and then in alphabetical order ecept that the United States the host nation-will sign last.
 Thus, the privilege of being the first to sign the new peace com- pact goes to the nation first at- tackled by a member of the Axis. China has been at war with Japan since 1881.
 Each member of the various dele- gations still here will sign the blue and gold bound charter.
 If the ceremony Is completed in time. it is hoped that President Truman will be present when the U. s. delegates write thsir sigma lures. They will sign in this order Secretary 0 State Edward I,

 The first to sign the document thus will be Roo of China; the last will be Dean Gildersleeve of the United States.
 The new organization can be established only after the big five and a majority of the other states -23 nations-have ratified the charter.
 In the meantime, the conference has set up a preparatory commis- sion" to get ready for the first meetings. There appears to be vir- tually no doubt that the necessary ratification will forthcoming by the end of the year.

 James Kovacs was called to the stand and related that he had gone on fishing trip with his brother and that while they had taken liquor along, Albert had drunk only two highballs.
 He said they went to the Milton home about Il p. m, because Albert had a date with Faith Coombs, the nurse for the three Milton chil- dren. They found no one at home, he said, and decided to wait. AL bert started to play a tune on the piano and then went into the kitchen and returned with a bottle of beer and glass. He was play ing the piano again when Mrs. Stevens, who lives next door, came in.
 Mrs. Stevens asked them what they were doing in the house, he said, and they told her they were waiting for Miss Coombs to come from upstate.
 Kovacs said Mrs. Stevens told them she was not in the house and had gone on another date, but AL bert refused to believe her and stood at the foot of the stairway, look ing upstairs.
 Then I heard a shot," he said.
 Mrs. Stevens interrupted at this point and after she was quieted, testimony was resumed.
 He said that three shots were fred in all, and his brother col- lapsed in his arms aAd he led him outside, where he died.
 There were no other witnesses
