ed, his withdrawal from the cham

the Council and the other persons
attending the session.
Gromyko's Statement.
Having gathered together his
papers, the Russian Ambassador
arose and told the Council:
For reasons which I explained
clearly enough in our meeting OF
yesterday and in today's meeting
Mr.. Chairman, I, as representative
Of the Soviet Union, am not able to
participate further in the discus
sions of the Security Council be-
cause my proposal has not been ac-
cepted by the Council, nor am I able
to be present at the meeting of the
Council and I therefore leave the
meeting"
Mr.. Gromyko spoke in Russian
and what he said could not be un-
derstood by most of those present
It was noticed, however, that Charles
E. Bohlen, expert of the State De-
partment on Russian affairs, leaned
over and interpreted the Russians
remarks to Secretary Byrnes and

Then the Russians sped away from

The proceedings of the council
were halted while the Russians left
the council room. The general feel

had just witnessed historic event,
the significance of which they were
not able to estimate Immediately.
1t remained for President Quo to
sum up the situation, when some
what later the council was about
to vote on the motion to invite the
Iranian Ambassador to make his
statement, he said:
Now, before I put the Egyptian
motion to vote, I want to call the
Councils attention to the fact we
have only 10 members"
Because the question of inviting
the Iranian to sit with the Council
was procedural, the presence of Rus
sia was not essential and the ques-

indefinite period: that the Iranian
government recognize the internal
autonomy Of Azerbaijan, and that a
joint 1ranian-Russian oil company
be created, with the Soviet govern
ment owning 81 per cent of the stock
and Iran 40 per cent.
Mr.. Ala told the Council these de-
mands are inconsistent with the
sovereignty and territorial integrity
of Iran. He insisted that such state
Of affairs is explosive and constitutes
a threat to peace.
Asked Immediate Action.
He declared that the matter is of
great urgency, and therefore the
Council should not postpone or de-
lay the consideration of the issue
For four years, he said, foreign
troops have been on Iranian soil
constituting an impediment to the
exercise of authority by the tranian
government.
The United States, represented by
Secretary Byrnes, took the lead
in the two-day fight to defeat
Russia's motion to postpone discus
sion of the Iranian case until April
10. He was backed by Sir Alex
ander Cadogan Of Britain and other
members of the Council. But it was
Mr.. Byrnes' firm stand and insist
ance that the question be decided
without delay that finally brought
the 9-to-2 vote which turned down
the Russia motion.
Mr.. Byrnes never relented in his
demand that no postponement be
granted or in his ir1sistance that
the representative of Iran be given
a hearing. 1t was his contention
that Mr.. Ala should be heard be-

que when nothing had been ac-
complished. The Soviet officials,
however. sent draft of communi-
que, to which he took exception on
two points: First, he objected to
the statement that discussions had
been conducted with good under
standing" Second, he objected to a
statement that discussions would be
continued with the new Soviet Am
bassador, who was shortly leaving
for Teheran; instead of this, to
state simply the hope that the ap-
pointment of the new Ambassador
would be conducive to promoting
friendly relations between the two
countries.

members of the Council are seeking
to bring about a solution.
Mr.. Gromyko's announcement just
before he left the Council chamber
was explicit. He made it clear he
was leaving because the proposal of
MS government to postpone discus
sion OF the Iranian complaint until
April 10 had not been accepted.
Admittedly, it was said in informed
quarters, the situation as it develops
IN Iran itself will have much to do
with the future deliberations and
possible action of the Security
Council. Mr.. Gromyko has said re-
peatedly in his statements to the
Council in the last two days that
Soviet troops were being withdrawn
from Iran, and that they might be
expected to be completely evacuated
in five to six weeks.
The presence of Red troops on
Iranian soil Is the very nub of the
complaint made by Iran to the
Council. 1t is their presence, and
the activities of Soviet officials in
Iran, about which Iran has COM
planned.
AS matters now stand, the Secu-
rity Council has two versions of the
situation in Iran. Mr.. Gromyko has
asserted that negotiations of his
government with Iran are progress
ing, and that Soviet troops are be-
ing evacuated as the result of an
understanding" between the two
governments. Ambassador Ala, who
made statement to the Council
after Mr.. Gromyko had walked out,
insisted that the negotiations had
gotten no where; that there was no
understanding or agreement with
Russia by his government, and that
Russian troops were still in Iran.
The Iranian Ambassado said that
instead of an agreement there ex-
listed only proposals made by the
Soviet government to Iran, pro-
posals which his government had
not accepted. These proposals were

that the Kansas City store was SELL

This led to investigation of other
stores in this area and subsequently
to all stores seryiced by the COM
pany.
Mr.. Bennett said the investigation
should be completed within two or
three weeks, but from the facts al
ready learned, together with con-
ferences with company officials, the
