 MostoW Last March

MONTREAL, March 25.-Mos- COW was after Canada's atomic re- search secrets at least as early as last March-five months before the atomic bomb exploded against Japan according to documents submitted as evidence in the Canadian gov ernment's spy trial.
 The Russian, Igor Gouzenko, said the documents were taken from a safe in the Soviet embassy at Ot- tawa.
 The documents form the basis of much of the case against Can adian government employees accus- ed of turning over to Russia scientific secrets and other war time confidential data.
 Gouzenko, young former code clerk of the Soviet embassy, fled to the Canadian government with the documents last September. He was the only witness in the second day of the hearing to determine whether the government has a suf- ficient case for trial of Fred Rose, Communist member of the Canad- ian parliament accused as a con- spirator.

Russian Counsel Wants Ruled Out Evidence of

NUREMBERG, Germany, March 25.-An objection by the Russian prosecutor prevented counsel for Rudolf Hess from reading into the court records today excerpts from what he called secret treaty con- cluded by Germany and Russia three days before the Nazi attack on Poland.
 The lawyer asserted before the International Military Tribunal that the alleged treaty fixed spheres of influnce in eastern Europe and that details were contained in an affidavit submitted by Dr. Friedrich Gaus, former German ambassador to Moscow
 Soviet Prosecutor R. A. Rudenko jumped up to object to the reading of surprise documents" before they were translated and submitted to the prosecution.
 T don't know what kind of doc uments he is talking about" Ru- denko said. Tt sounds like hearsay to me-"
 When Chief Justice Sir Godfrey Lawrence sustained the objection, Hess lawyer countered with:
 Tn that case I must ask permis- sion to call Soviet Foreign Commis- car Molotov to establish if this agreement was not actually con- cluded."
 One provision of the alleged secret agreement, the attorney said, was that Germany declared itself uninterested in three Baltic states Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia-- and Finland
 The tribunal ignored that request and the galleries Uttered.

Optimism Prevails with Truman Promising Full
 U. 5. Cooperation

NEW YORK, March 25-The UNO Security Council has opened its first meeting in its new quarters at Hunter College.
 The history-making conference was called to order at 2:31 p. m. Eastern time, by pr. Quo Tai-chi of China, President of the Coun- cil. The meeting opened on a high note of optimism, and with Presi- dent Truman's promise of full American cooperation.
 In a message read to the Council by Secretary of State James Byrnes, MT. Truman said the American people will do all the can to main- tain peace, and he added that all the United Nations must remain united, working together for peace and freedom as they fought for it during the war.
 Secretary Byrnes added few words of his own after reading MT. Truman's message. The nations, said Byrnes, first must try to settle their difference among themselves, but failing this, must bring their grievances before the Security Coun- ell. For, continued Byrnes, No na- tion has the right to take the law into its own hands"
 With today's session given over to formalities, delegates kept their fingers crossed as they awaited further word on the dispute between Iran and Russia. The Iranian case will be discussed by the Council to- morrow. But the atmosphere was one of confidence-in inspired by the announced withdrawal of Russian Troops from Iran. The continued presence of Red Army forces in Iran had been at the root of the controversy.
 The opening session lasted 5l minutes.
