Molotov May

NEW YORK., Nov. 5.-(P)
Soviet Foreign Minister V.
M. Molotov appeared deter
mined Tuesday night to wage
a last ditch stand to bring the
disputed Adriatic port of
Trieste into the Eastern En-
ropean bloc.
This became more apparent
as the Four-Power Foreign
ministers held their second
session behind guarded doors
of a 37th-floor suite in a New
The Trieste issue-biggest prob
lem facing the Foreign ministers
is tentatively scheduled for the
opening showdown battle of a
months-long struggle Wednesday
when both Yugoslav and Italian
delegations will be heard.
Conference PURGE believed if
the Trieste issue a be settled the
other peace problems probably
will be solved rapidly.
Completion of the Italian treaty,
these sources said, depends en-
tirely on solving the problem of
how Trieste will be governed.
Rusciane Rail-,
Both the United States and Brit
ain argue that the Four-Pewer
ministers have decided that Trieste
shall be under control of the
United Nations. But Russia is
baking on the type of government.
Molotov is insisting that the
strategic city be under the control
of a governor appointed by an as
sembly from the International
zone. Since such an assembly
would be predominately Yugoslav
because of the large Yugoslav
majority in the area, British and
American sources argue that Yu-
goslavia under this arrangement
would hold a position of influence
over Trieste.
Without engaging in a fight on
the issue, the Foreign ministers
agreed in its first meeting here
to permit Yugoslavia and Italy
to present further views on the
problem.
The Yugoslav delegation, head
ed by Foreign minister Stano Je
Simich, is expected to appear be-
fore the ministers Wednesday
morning. The Italian delegation
will be heard probably in the
afternoon.
Conference sources believed the
Yugoslavs would suggest a more
favored position for the Tito gov
eminent in the administration of
Trieste.
Major Roadblock
While Trieste stood as the major
roadblock confronting the confer
ence, the Four-Power ministers
tackled other issues in the Italian
peace treaty on which there is
no unanimous agreement.
Biggest issue on Tuesdays agen-
da was the Australian proposal
for establishing a ~reparations COM

about this way of conducting our

been created not by a real con-

Furm Couple Presents Truman
With $2,OOOMore for Relief

President Truman today swapped
a rose from the White House gar
dens for two ST 900 checks given to
him by Nebraska farm couple to
aid needy in Europe.
The donors were Mr.. and Mrs.
Claude H. Canaday, Bloomfield,
Nebr., who were brought to WASH
ington to meet the President by
Secretary of Agriculture Anderson,
to whom they had originally given
$1,000 for famine relief. This money
represented proceeds from the sale
of corn which Mr.. Canaday said
otherwise would have been fed to
hogs to fatten them and increase
their value.
When the President went out into
the White House gardens with the
Canadays and Mr.. Anderson to pose
for pictures, the earnest farmer
handed him the other two checks.
He had dated one September l and
said this was for agricultural ad-
vancement in needy lands and made
the other one good as Of December
Is, explaining that this could 60 for

May Wheat Shipment!
10000 Tons Below
Goal, Acheson Report!
Anderson Due to Report
Deficit of 700, 900 Tons
In Four-Month Period

Acting Secretary of State
Acheson today reported the
United States has fallen 10000
tons short of its relief exports of
wheat during the first seven days
OF this month and estimated
that this was enough to provide
the usual weekly bread ration for
71,500, 900 people in famine areas.
Mr.. Acheson's disclosure at a press
conference came as the Agriculture
Department prepared to issue a re-
port expected to show a deficit of
more than 100000 tons of wheat for
the month period ending April
30. The report would supply figures
for the last 10 days of April, under
an arrangement recently worked out
to release shipping figures every 10
days.
Mr.. Acheson said this Govern
ment had not abandoned hope of
cooperation from Russia in the
famine relief program. Then he
added that this country is not doing
SO well on its own program.
Refers Inquiries to Anderson.
Mr.. Acheson previously has de.
manded more drastic measures te
get food for relief, but today he re.
fused to say whether such steps still
might be taken after he was re.
minded that President Truman de.
clared last week that we were doins
all we can. i.
Asked why the shipments have
fallen short of the goal, Mr.. Achesor
told his news conference that tht
Agriculture Department could tall
about that better than he could, anc
he said reporters should inquire
there.
During the first week in May, Mr.
Acheson said, We shipped $4,000 ton.
OF wheat and an estimated 75,OO(
tons of flour equivalent. This tota
is about 10000 tons short of tn.
weekly goal.
AS of April 20, this country hae
fallen 52l, 900 tons behind since the
start OF the year. The United State,
had hoped to ship 100000 tons 8
month through June.
Preparing Report on Purchases.
The Agriculture Department alsc
was preparing its first report or
progress of the Governments wheat
buying program, which include.
bonus payments of 30 cents a bushe
to holders Of wheat who sell to the
Government by May Is.
Despite the dark picture, Secre.
tary of Agriculture Anderson re.
mains optimistic over this country
meeting its goals by mid-year. HI

The man whom Hitler appointed

death in little village outside The
