bings and attacks in Bombay. but

police partiality, voiced mostly by
Moslems but also by some Hindus.
and promised that a roundup of
known gangsters would continue.

gangsteIs were using the troubles
to eXtort large sums for protection

Nehru Vows 10 Spurn
Satellite Role for
Independent India
By the Assoointed Presx

NEW DELHI, Sept. Making
his first broadcast as head of India S
new interim government, Pandit
Jawaharlal Nehru declared today
that the new India would be en-
tirely free-"not merely satellite
of another nation" would par
ticipate in international conferences
with our own policy
The Cambridge-educated premier
said he hoped India would have
friendly relations with Britain and
the empire lin spite of our past his
tory of conflict and condemned
what he termed 'racialism' in the
Union of South Africa.
I'VE propose to keep away from
power politics or groups aligned
against one another, which led in
the past to war and which may well
lead to disaster on an even vaSter
scale" Nehru said.
I'VE hope to develop close and di-
rect contacts with other nations and
cooperate with them in the fur
dom"
Greetings Sent to Nations.
The eft-of-center Congress party
leader sent greetings to Russia, the
United States. China, the Arab
World and to Indonesians.
Of Russia. he said, they are our
neighbors in Asia and inevitably
We shall have to undertake many
common tasks and have much to
do with each other. We are of
Asia and the people of Asia are
nearer and closer to us than others. ~
Nehru pledged India to work for
world commonwealth, a world in
which there is the free co-opera-
ton of free peoples and no class or
group exploits another"
He said he would not discuss
domestic policy 'at this stage" but
appealed for cooperation among
India's warning creeds and de-
plored recent Indian riots.
The Congress party's main rival,
the MoSlem League, has refused to
participate in the interim govern
ment, which Britain has said is a
step toward Indian independence

Denial of EHzobeth's BetrothoI
To Greek Fails to Stop Rumors
Prince Philip, Cousin
Of King George II,
Moy Become Fiunce
BY the Associated Press

'H~'SN'N''Oe
LONDON Sept. 7-Rumors of q
romance between Princess Elizabeth
and Prince Philip of Greece spread
across the realm tonight despite Off
cial denials, and Britons began siz-
ing up the handsome young royal
naval officer as a potential prince
consort tor Britain's next queen.
Court circles said the prince was
one of Elizabeths circle of friends.
and now guest of the royal family
at Balmoral Castle in Scotland
But they denied that he and the
20-year- heiress presumptive were
engaged to marry.
A flood of rumors was started
by the London Stars report of an
impending announcement of an en-
gagement. But Sir Alan LaScelles
private secretary to the king, issued
a statement declaring:
Princess Elizabeth is not en-
gagged to be married. The report
published is incorrect"
Royal Navy Lieutenant.
The Star, saying the engagement
would be announced to the nation
at a time considered suitable by
the king and his advisers" added
that until then Buckingham Pal
ace will continue officially to know
nothing of the romance"
Prince Philip. a cousin of Greek
King George II, is 25 and British
Royal Navy lieutenant
The Star said announcement of
the engagement was confidently
expected in circles close to the royal
family. Discussions among intimate
friends of the princess and the
prince are no longer concerned with
the probability of marriage. The
main topic now is the date on which
the announcement will be made
Princess Elizabeth's name was
linked with the princes more than
year ago. The Athens monarchist
publication, Tellenicon Aema, limited
at the possibility of an engagement
Prince Philip is the son of the
late Prince Andrew and Princess
Alice. Princess Alice was a rela-
tive of Admiral Lord Mountbatten
a cousin OF British King George.
The princes father and King Con-
stantine. father of King George II
of Greece, were brothers.
The prince has spent most of his
life i'll England. He Joined the Royal
Navy as midshipman and served
on the battleship Valiant at the
battle of Matapan.. He also was on
Lord Mountbattens staff in South
east Asia
Parliament Can Override.
He is a member Of the Greek
Orthodox Church, the same faith as
that of Princess Marina of the Greek
royal family who was wed to the
Duke of Kent in 1888. Princess
Marina and the duke, who was killed
in an airplane crash during the war
were married in two ceremonies
one Greek Orthodox and the other
a Church OF England service.
A Buckingham Palace informant
said marriage to Prince Philip was
unlikely since members of the Greek
royal house were Catholics. Brit
ANS constitution requires that the
princess husband be a Protesta nj
and the ROYAL Marriage Act of 1772
gives Parliament overriding power
in a marriage of a member of the
royal family.
If Princess Elizabeth is still un-

British Decide 10 Quit
Indies by Nov. 80
BY the Associated Press

BATAVIA, Sept. 7--The British
announced today final decision
to withdraw their 20,000-man oc-
cupation force from the Neither
lands Indies by November 80, re-
gardless of the status of Dutch
1ndoneSian negotiations
The withdrawal decision, a
spokesman said. was made because
Britain's two occupation objectives
under the Potsdam Agreement-the
evacuation of Allied prisoners of
war and internees, and the dis
arming of the would be
completed by then.
CA Foreign Office spokesman
in London said British opera
tions in the islands had pro-
ceeded according to plan, but
refused further comment on the
evacuation announcement
Referring to the troubled Indo-
nesian political situation, the Brit
ish spokesman said His Majesty S
government is anxious that an
agreement may be reached by po-
litical discussion, but the future of
the Netherlands East Indies is not
their responsibility. The Dutch and
Indonesians must work out the
problems themselves"

 this convention. Opposition to annual sessions of the General As sembly invariably comes from vest ed interests who oppose progress and who fear that legislation favor able to the workers might be en- acted. They have also blocked special session of the General As sembly which is essential to cope with reconversion problems.

 Naturally, those elements who themselves have spent huge sums to influence legislation in their own interests pretend to be alarmed be- cause labor, tired of being pushed around, exertS its democratic rights by active participation in politics. There are also others who claim to be labor's wellwishers who contend that Samuel Gompers opposed po- litical action on the part of labor. They don't know what they are talking about. As a matter of fact, the late revered head of the Amer ican Federation of Labor was g staunch advocate of nOn-partiSan political action by labor, and him. self frequently campaigned against the enemies of labor who were can didates for political office.

federal government and state governments, too endeavor to check the cooperative movement by imposing onerous taxes.
 As everyone knows, real coop- erative doesn't make any money. It divides it's profits between it's customers and such reserve funds as may be necessary to carry on and expand the business.
 The growth of "co-ops' in this country has been rather slow. Now the movement is booming. Some businessmen are alarmed. Propa. gandists take advantage of their fears, induce them to disgorge ad- equate "slush funds" and begin bombarding state and federal law makers.
 We don't underestimate the strength of the propagandiSts, but we don't think they'll get very far. We feel the 'co-ops" are too strong and too intelligent for that

This was not the only advance attained on the state legislative front, as Legislative Agent Harold V. Feinmark,s report indicates. Nevertheless, a number of mea- sures we worked for failed of pas sage because of the hostility of the State Manufacturers Association and business groups including the Hartford Chamber of Commerce. A spokesman for the latter organi- zation has called for a halt on all labor and social legislation until other states have caught up with Connecticut. To this our answer is that while this state, since the adoption of the State Labor Rela- tions Act, Is now among the most progressive, 1t Is still far from be- ing in the lead.
 Connecticut industries. 1t should be remembered, are highly produc- tive, therefore, they can afford not only to pay adequate wages but not stand in the path of such measures as a 65 cents an hour minimum
