Condemns Veto Clause Prauda Besn1irches Baruch Bomb Plan

London, June N-(UP) - The Moscow newspaper Pravda, Com miunist Party organ, today con- demned the Baruch atom bomb con- trol plan as an attempt by the United States to dominate the world.
 The United States Is trying to win Q monopoly over atomic bomb manufacture for an indefinite pe- riod and force other nations to sign away their sovereignty to her, the Pravda article charged.
 The article particularly con- demned Bernard Haruch's proposal for elimination of the big veto on atomic matters.
 GrOmyk0 Plan Praised
 The Soviet counter proposal laid before the United Nations Security Council by Andrei Gromyko was praised for it's humanity, clarity and efficacy"
 Two different trends in modern international politics are apparent in the Soviet proposals and in the American plan respectively" Prav- da said.
 "The former reflect the steadfast Soviet policy of peace and defense of general security. while the Amer ican plan is the product of atomic diplomacy selecting obvious aspira- tions toward world domination, But in in our days such aspirations can have no success"
 Veto Clause Defective
 Elimination of the veto is a sub stantial defect of the Baruch plan, the article said,
 Izakov said the manufacture of atomic bombs in the United States Is mot even in the hands of gov ernment bodies, and its separate phases are sold to private monopol- ies, for instance the Dupont de Nemours chemical trust.
 The whole character of this firm, connected before the war by a thousand ties with the I, G. Far ben lndustrie. Is far from evoking confidence"

BIG 4 R EJECT AUSTRIA

Paris, June 24-(UP)-The Big {" foreign ministers today rejected an Austrian claim to Italyis Puster- tai Valley in the South Tyrol.
 The ministers failed again to reach any definite agreement re- gardtng French claims for the Tende and Brigue valleys in redrawing of the Franco-I Italian frontier.
 The French and Austrian terri- tortal claims against Italy were taken up at the start of 8 speed- up program to finish the study of five peace treaties within five days and decide the fate of 6 nid-Sum- uaer peace conference.
 Bring Out Showdown
 The territorial issues were dls- clissed at the first of two meetings of the foreign ministers scheduled tor today.
 Pacing A self imposed Friday deadline. the ministers pitched into 6 two-a-day schedule of meetings, They will finish reviewing treaty proposals for Italy. Romania, Bull garia, Hungary and Finland and bring the conference to 6 show down.
 Results of the crucial five days will go far to determine Europe's future. They may lead to agreement between Russia and the western powers. or toward split into rival blocks.
 By Friday the ministers will de- eide whether they have progressed enough to summon 2i nations for 6 full dress peace conference. proba- bly in mid-July or possibly Aug. l. V. M. Molotov has insisted upon prior "Big 4" agreement on all essential questions. James F. Byrnes and Ernest Bevin want the big meeting even if the Big {" dis- agree on some issues,
 Compromise Expected
 Conference progress to date left little ground for optimism. but there were vague indications that some sort of compromise might be forth coming. Molotoy's attitude at the Saturday session indicated he was more in a mood for compromising now than at the May meeting,
 All fields of disagreement will be reviewed. The heart of the prob lem remains Trieste. If an answer Is found on that, agreements on other questions may follow swiftly.
 Byrnes used Sunday for a com plete rest. He was suffering from q cold. and Mrs. Byrnes insisted that he conserve his strength, ThVe were no meetings Sunday.
