 New York, March l6-CUP)- Winston Churchill's disclosure that Russia had demanded a fortress in the Dardanelles" at the Potsdann Conference posed a new problem today for the United Nations Or ganization.
 Churchill made the disclosure in an address at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel last night in which he urged that the Iranian crisis and the Russian demands on Turkey be "thrashed out" before the United Nations Security Council "as a very great test for the world organization on which so many hopes are based"
 It was the first official disclosure that the Dardanelles had been dis cussed at the Potsdam meeting, al- though it was recalled that the Turkish foreign minister, Hasan Saka, was in London during the conference last July and had been very attendant upon the foreign of- flee at that time.
 2,O00 Hear Address
 Churchill spoke before a backdrop of American and British flags to an audience of 2.000 persons who had gathered in the grand ballroom of the Waldorf for a Sl5-a-plate din- ner given by the City of New York.
 The dais from which he spoke was filled with dignitarieS, including diplomatic representatives of more than 40 foreign countries.
 Speakers at the dinner included John c. Winant, U. s. ambassador to Great Britain; Mayor William O'Dwyer and Gov. Thomas E. Dewey of New York.

 Congressmen Wont

 Unless Byrnes Acts
By DEAN w. DITTMER

Washington, March l6.-(UP)- House Military Affairs Committee members said today they would demand publication of a list of "pro-Russian" sympathizers in the State Department unless Secretary of State James F. Byrnes acted first.
 The congressman dismissed ByrneS' statement yesterday that he never had been asked by the com- mittee to fire State Department employees with Communist leanings, Anyway, he said, the departments test of an employe was whether he was "pro-American".
 Byrnes denied specifically that the committees chief investigator, Ralph H. Burton, had given him a list of State Department employees who allegedly had Communist or pro- Russian sympathies. He said he had talked to Burton but that he remembered only one name being mentioned.
 No Comment by May
 Committee Chairman Andrew J. May, D., Ky, declined to comment on Byrnes' statement or to say what the committees next step would be. But other members of a special Investigating committee headed by May said they would de- mand publication of Burton's report if Byrnes did not act soon.
 Members of the committee said that some of the alleged "Commun- ist" and "pro-Russian" sympathizers were in the State Departments re- search and intelligence service headed by Alfred Mccormack, for- merly in Army Intelligence.
 They said their information re- suited from an investigation of the War Departments Intelligence Ser vice. They said 1t had been kept secret for several months to give Byrnes an opportunity to act.
 The congressman said that after Investigating Army Intelligence, May went to President Truman with a list of about IS" persons the sub- committee thought should be re" leased.
 Some Of these persons, members said, were found to have withheld certain information about Russia from former Chief of Staff Gen. George Q. Marshall.
 If the Intelligence information was favorable to Russia, 1t was given to Marshall. If 1t was untavorable,
