Iran Controls All Of Azerbaijan

TERRAIN, (H) - Trans central government, plagued for more than a year by separatist move ments in Azerbaijan, claimed to- day to have brought Kurds as we'll as Azerbaijanis back under its control in the oil-rich province on the Soviet frontier.
 The government also announced it had ordered the transfer here of Dr. Salamollah Javid, governor general of Subdued Azerbaijan province, and M. Sabostari, head of the Azerbaijan provincial coun- cil.
 The war ministry said it could neither confirm nor deny reports that more than 100 Russian immi- grants into Azerbaijan had been killed by civil police and soldiers during the last three days at Tab rig, capital of Azerbaijan.
 The newspaper Etash reported from Tabriz that Tehran security forces had reached Ardebil and found that tribesmen there had hanged or otherwise executed 40 adherents of the Azerbaijan semi autonomous government, estab- lished during the last days of the Russian occupation of north Iran
 Etash said also that government troops used machinegun fire to protect three ranking leaders oi the Azerbaijan government when they were transferred from muni. cipal headquarters at Tabriz to jail It was said that the people tried to kill them.

Russians Eat;
 Americans Pay

WASHINGTON, (P)-The Sen ate War Investigating committee has learned that it probably will cost American taxpayers $l71, ,00U,- 900 next year to feed the U. S.-oc- cupied zone of Germany while the Russian controlled area eats home grown food at no cost to Moscow.
 Statements gathered by commit tee counsel George Meader during three-week trip to Europe laid the blame for this situation on the failure of attempts to unify Ger many economically under the terms of the 1945 Potsdam Big Three agreement.
 Blaming the French for block ing plans to set up central German administrative services, the state ments obtained by Nader from army of occupation and military government authorities said the United States had been forced to stop the dismantling of German plants for reparations-most of which would go to Russia-be- cause of the threatened financial drain on this country.
 Beyond that, the statements in- dicated that even if economic uni fication of Germany were brought about immediately, it might take two years for the Germans to be- come sufficiently self supporting to require no further food ship ments from the United States.

U. N. Diplomats Depart For Home; Work Finished
(By John A. Paris, Jr.)

NEW YORK, (P)-The United Nations assembly turned over to the 1l-members security council today the monumental task of set ting into motion a program for re- duclng the armies of the world and destroying the mass destruc- tive weapons of war.
 Ending an historic eight-weeks' session at l2:44 am. (EST), the top diplomats of 54 nations gave the world its first concrete hope for outlawing war and then head ed for home after writing another chapter in mans long search for peace.
 The next regular meeting will be held in New York next Sept 16, but the assembly may be called into special session in six months to approve worldwide arms re- ductions which the security coun- cil is to plan in detail.
 In the vaulted gold-and-blue as- sembly hall at Flushing Meadow Park, the worlds diplomats gave a solemn pledge that their coun- tries would support immediate steps to reduce their armed forces and prohibit the use of the atomic bomb.
 This was regarded as the most significant achievement of the assembly, which met in the United States for the first time and Se- lected a Manhattan skyscraper site for its permanent home.
 But almost equally as signifi- cant was the attainment of Virtu- ally unanimous agreement among delegates, unanimity that had been conspicuously lacking since the United Nations was born.
 For the first time since hostili- ties ended, delegates agreed there was an increase in cooperative spirit between Soviet Russia and the western powers.
 There was evidence in some re- spects of a softening of Russian

In Sp1pe or 1AS QeVe1OplQR 1Iu-' portance, Groton is still a small town, with a Small-town mentality at least among the So-called "rul- ing' families. GrOtOn must de- Velop into a city under an intel ligent and well-thought out plan, or else 1t will develop into city that will be just hodge-podge, with every needed improvement the subject of bitter and prolonged wrangling.
 The Independent party was or- ganized several months ago for two main reasons. First, it is time for change. The new borough party has been in control for several years with no organized opposi- ton. A two-party system is es- Sential to good government, or else we have the clique" system. Secondly, Groton MUST develop into city in its own right instead of continuing to be just suburb of New London. Although sight of the shadow of coming events tde- feat at the polls) has stirred them to progressive action recently, the "Old Guard' here has been noted and notorious for their determined opposition to any changes in the status quo. Nothing New in Groton, Please" has been the un- written slogan among the ruling clique in the Borough for many years. It is certainly time for 9 change.
 Instead of just one party, we now have three. One group call themselves, Republicans" The idea of having Republicans and Democrats in a local election like this is simply silly and is carrying partisan politics entirely too far. It is also an unfair appeal to those voters who automatically gnaSh

their teeth whenever the national party that they do not like Is mem toned. The name Independent was chosen to show that this group intends to be really independent of any national or state organization. Good government locally and pro- gressive development of GrOtOn are what the candidates and the other party members are interested in. So don't be fooled.
 The platform of the Independent party is only a partial list of the things that the candidates think can and should be done to make Groton into a REAL city and a better place for ALL the people to live in.

Poland and China
Share Equally in
UNRRA Farm Aid
By WiIIiom A. MiIIen
Third of q SerieS.)

Poland and China, each getting
about $50, 900, 900 for agricultural re-
Mobilization, are tied for first place
in this phase of UNRRA's activities.
Poland requests Brigadier Charles
M. Drury, a Canadian, who is chief
of UNRRA'S mission in that country,
to get the materials desired. SINH
larly, in China, the government
there asks Maj. Gen. Glen E. Edger-
ton, American officer. newly ap-
pointed as chief of UNRRA's mis-
sion there, to supply the needed
materials.
These requests then come to
UNRRA's headquarters here, where
Director Edwin Henson of the Divi-
sion of Agricultural Rehabilitation
of the Bureau of Supply, and Cliff
ford H. Wilson, deputy director,
consider them. Both of these Of
ficials are Americans. They make
recommendations to the State De-
partment and, if approved, the
goods are obtained for UNRRA by
purchasing agents of the Federal
Government.
Mr.. Henson has been attending
the United Nations Food and Agri-
culture Organization Conference at
Copenhagen, Denmark, but is ex-
pected back in Washington, shortly.
Peoples in the needy countries
are now harvesting crops made
possible through UNRRA's program
of seed distribution, Mr.. Wilson
explained. Altogether, UNRR A
plans to spend 1854 100000 on agri-
cultural rehabilitation in its entire
program.
Mr.. Wilson, who lives in Fairling-
ton, Va, went to Poland for UNRRA
in July, 1945, and was also in China
during the past spring. Under the
seed distribution program, So tons
in bulk-cabbage, corn, cucumbers,
onions, pumpkins and others-were
sent to Poland for distribution
through farming channels and CO.
operatives, he explained. In addi-
ton, 100000 packets, representing
$50 tons, went to that country. Each
contained IL to IA different varieties
of seeds, for Victory gardeners"
there.
Last spring, UNRRA began the
seed distribution program. In May,
1000 tons of beans went from the
United States to Poland. having been
procured about a month previously
through the Department of Agri-
culture.
About 80 days after the request
had been made by Poland, the seeds
were arriving in that country, Ru-
dolf F. Geucke, an American, and
seed specialist in the Division of Ag-
ricultural Rehabilitation, explained.
Later the lag was reduced to 80 to
40 days. Mrs. Ethel Ely Pattison,
seed specialist, who used to live in
Fairfax County, Va, has played a
prominent part in the seed program
of UNRRA. She has made several
trips to Europe for UNRRA.

Municipal Court Judge George D.
Nelson yesterday called for an
amendment to the statute against
mutilating national bank notes to
permit prosecution for splitting Of

"mutilating certain currency or evi-
dence Of debt"
Judge Nelson granted a motion
to quash the information, based on
police charges that Perry possessed

yesterday for a traffic violation.
Perry pleaded guilty to q charge
Of failure to keep to the right side
of the street on Fourteenth between

Russian Planes Fire On U. $. Patrol Plane

WASHINGTON, Mar. 1, (P)- Government officials said that two Russian fighter planes recent ly fired on a U S. patrol plane after it flew over a Soviet airbase at Port Arthur. These officials, who declined direct attribution, said some damage wos done to the navy plane, but none of the eight officers and men aboard were in jured.
 The incident occurred off the China coast. The navy reported it had taken up the matter with Russian authorities in the China area. The Russians here contend the American plane had no right to fly over the Port Arthur area, since it is a fortified zone. The view generally expressed by the State department is that the Rus sians may have been. within their rights to take the action they did, veen though the pilot may have lost his bearings, he had no legal right to fly over the area.
