Big 5 Wins Fight Over YoIto Vote
By R. H. SHACKFORD

San Francisco, June 13-UP)- The little" United Nations con- ceded victory to the Big Five today in their battle over the Yalta vot- ing formula.
 Eventual approval of the formula was virtually assured early this morning when 8 United Nations Conference committee, after hec- tic night session, defeated an Aus tralian attempt to soften" Big Five veto rights in the Security Council.
 The vote was 20 to 10 against the amendment, but IS nations ab- stained from voting and five others were absent.
 The committee scheduled two more meetings today during which tentative incorporation of the Yalta formula into the charter was eX- pected. A two-third vote is needed for approval. but it was conceded that the opposition's high-Water mark already had come on the Aus tralian amendment.
 Australian Foreign Minister Her bert V. Evatt, who led the fight to modify the formula, served notice that defeat at this conference did not mean the end of his battle.
 Tt will go on until liberalization or improvement takes place." he said
 Evatt and his supporters here claimed a moral victory. They con- tended that the vote showed that half of the 50 nations at this con- ference, either by supporting Aus tralia or by abstaining from the roll call, could not defend the form ula.
 The Australian am n ment would have taken away from the Big Five the right given them un- der the Yalta formula to veto Se- curity Council action in the peace full settlement of disputes. Many other pending amendments now are expected to be withdrawn or defeated easily.
 Highlights of last nights three and one-half hour session were:
 1. Seventeen speeches for and against the voting formula. 2. An impassioned appeal fol unanimity on the issue by Sen. Tom Connally, D., Tex. in what witness es described as his best senatorial style.
 3. A point of order raised and sustained against the delegate from Iraq because of a reflection upon (Continued on Page 4)

One of the greatest artillery bar rages of the Pacific war shattered several enemy troop concentrations on the summit of the cliffs, where trapped Japanese were making suicide stand.
 Marines and infantrymen scaled the top of the plateau on rope lad ders, then used the same roper to haul up other troops and their supplies.
 Japs Surrounded
 The defenders virtually were ssIr- rounded. The 1st Marine Division on the west, the 96th Army Division on the north and the 7th Army Da- vision on the east cracked through primary defenses and stormed across the plateau from three sides. It may be the final battle of Okinawa.
 United Press War Correspondent E. G. valens reported from l0th Army headquarters that cornered Japanese troops hurled themselves at advancing Americans In suicide assaults.
 In one of the largest counter attacks, approximately 300 Japanese carrying dynamite 'satchels' charged 1st Marine Division positions on the western front. The leathernecks killed GA, including one woman.
 On the strategic southeastern coast near Hanagusuku, American tanks cleaned out 105 Japanese caves along the escarpInent. Foot soldiers swept caves and breastworks Nitn blasts of flame sprayed from 200- foot long firehouses. Others rooted out Japanese with grenades and rifles.
 Final Assault On
 The final American assault was under way, and it was 8 battle to the death with no quarter asked or given. Gains of up to 1000 yards were reported in the past "A hours.
 Marines of the first division cracked the western end of the Yae- judake position in pre-dawn st-

 Mrs. Coscia, wife of the accused took the stand in Superior Court early this afteronon to relate how her brother-in-law, Cyr, chased her husband up into his apartment be- fore the fatal shooting occurred at their Washington avenue home. Mrs Coscia was the fifth witness called by the defense.
 Her husband, clad in his under clothing, got up at 6:45 that nlorn- ing, Mrs. Coscia said, and went down into the cellar, which because of bad feeling, was divided into df- ferent portions" for each family.
 The next thing she knew, Mrs. Coscia said, T heard my husband screaming, coming up the hall. I got out of bed, and just as opened the door, my husband pushed in, and ran past me into the parlor, shouting, your brother-in-law wants to kill me-"
 Carries Shotgun
 She stopped Cyr, she said, as he pushed his way into the middle of the kitchen, screaming at him to get out, as her husband came out of the bedroom, carrying a shot gun, saying Come back here, I want to reason with you. Why do you always pick on me?"
 Mrs. Coscia stood screaming while Cyr started downstairs, her husband following him, she said. The next thing she heard was a bang at the door she related, and her husband trying to reason with Cyr." She made no mention of hearing a shot.
 Coscia then came u pstairs and went into the bathroom without answering her question as to what happened.
 At this point Atty. Mascolo eli- cited a rather fndelicate, but what he seemed to consider an important piece of evidence. He presented pair of undershorts which Mrs. Cos cia identified as those her husband left on the bathroom floor, soiled, as well as torn, as the result of the encounter in the cellar.
 Mrs. Coscia related several in- stances of the bad feeling which existed between the two men. She married Coscia on April 25, 1942, she said. Her sister Anna married Cyr on July Is, 1942, and took up resi- dence on the second floor of the home, owned by the two sisters, while she and her husband resided on the first floor.
 As a result of the friction, they divided the cellar and the yard, Mrs. Coscia said. The men had not been speaking for some time before the staying, she said.
 Bitterness Described
 Bitterness that existed between the two men over property owned jointly by their wives was wildly described by a health inspector, who said he was called to the prop erty at 419 Washington avenue sev-

 No Opposition
 There still was no enemy oppos1- tion to speak of, but the Ninth Australian division found it tough going along the bad, narrow road through the jungle from captured Brooketon to Brunei. After another two-nile gain, the Australians were 10 airlineS miles, or IA miles by road, from Brunei.
 A combined press dispatch from the front reported that the Sultan of of Brunei and his Harem were believed to be in the interior noun tains, waiting to return to resume his rule under the British flag.
 Other reports said that 1900 ciy- Hans, many of them hungy and sick, had been liberated so far. They included Chinese, Malays, Indians, and JavaneSe.
 Australian troops shared their ra- tionS with the liberated natives, and immediately set up hospital for them. Melbourne radio reported that the civilians had been living for nearly four years on three pounds of rice month, and whatever coco nut and tapioca they could obtain. The small island of Muara, oil Brooketon is Brunei Bay, was conn pletely cleared by the invaders. On Labuan, Australian engineers went to work to clear the long un- (Continued on Page D

Wide Naturalization
|0f French Interests
Demanded by Leftisis

BY the Associated Press.
PARIS, Nov. THE dominant
left-wing bloc in Frances constit-
uent assembly yesterday demanded
sweeping naturalization of the ma
tion's key enterprises as the newly
elected body took over the reins of
government from Gen. Charles de
Gaulle and started work on a new
constitution.
The demands were part of a radio
program circulated at the initial
session of the assembly by the Com
munist and Socialist parties. which
control a majority of the delegates.
The program called for labor shar-
ing in industrial management, gov
ernment-controlled foreign trade,
progressive emancipation for ma
tives of Frances empire, an uncen-
sored press controlling it's own news
agency, and closer collaboration
among the major Allied powers.
Enterprises which would be ma
tionalized include the Bank of
France and the larger credit insti-
tutions, such as deposit and insur-
'ance banks and insurance compa-

Merchant Marine, coal mines and
steel, the manufacture of lighter
metals, liquid air, cement. explo-
sives, sodium and most fertilizers
and the Importation and transpor-
tation Of liquid fuels.
The proposed step would go beyond
the naturalization program of
Britain's labor government.
The naturalization program,
