out the consent of Congress.
Thus the United States is for the veto
but the United States policy is that
1t should not be used LIGHTLY or ire
sponsibly to prevent peaceful settle
ments of disputes that have been agreed
to by the majority.
The other delicate spot was the
Kremlin. Persons close to the formative
period of the U. NJ indicate it was felt
that Premier Stain would look with
more favor on an organization in which
Russia had good brake such as the
veto.
So the veto came into being. Now the
principal cry is for moderation in it's
use.
The chief antagonist of the veto is
DR.. Herbert v. Evatt, Australia's Foreign
Minister. He has fought it steadily since
San Francisco and asked formally that
it be put on the September Assembly
dScIlud dltcT tI1c June 20 COUNCIL session
which was marked by three Russian
vetoes on the Spanish question.
Then in broadcast address on July
Is, he condemned the veto procedure as
"undemocratic and unjust He called
1t the most serious disability under
which the United Nations is now labor
ing"
Evatt also said that he had warned
at San Francisco that the veto decision
there opened the way to its unrestricted
use by any permanent member against
the expressed will of the other 10 men,
bers even on matters of relatively small
Importance. The sponsoring powers
gave solemn assurances that the veto
would not be so abused. Experience on
the Security Council since January has
proved conclusiyely, however, that the
Australian warning was justified and
that our contention was correct"

Reaction from Slovene elements was

sistant propaganda through their news

All Opposition Called Fascist.
A spokesman for the Allied Military
Government sums up the situation
THE main obstacle to collaboration
between the opposing elements in the
area was originally the obdurate atti-
tude of the Slovene Communists. whose
aim is to dominate, and whose tendency
is to label everything and everybody in
opposition to their ideas-Fascist More
recently, concurrent with an increased
confidence in public order on the part
OF the Italian element, the latter has
adopted an increasingly nationalistic
and intransigent attitude, though it
lacks the efficient organization of the
Slovenes"

bers of the Council, with all five per-
manent members voting together, are
necessary for approval.
Sir Alexander Cadogan, British dele
gate, illustrated how the thing works,
In a broadcast to the United Kingdom
on the first birthday of the U. N, Cado-
gan posed this hypothetical case:
The principals are two OF the five big
powers, "A" and "B."
"A makes far-reaching proposal B
feels he must vote against it and the
proposal therefore fails. But B then
puts up more moderate proposal
which would receive the votes of sufi-
cient majority of the Council. If A
possessed no veto he could vote against
it, or he could abstain, and the will of
the majority would still prevail.
But as 1t stands now if he votes
against 1t because he feels that it
would be Illogical to vote for a pro-
posal differing from his own, then the
Will OF the majority is obstructed-per
haps even by that one single vote"
There Is considerable thought in the
United States that the veto was con-
jured up in the Kremlin. That is wrong.
Veto Roosevelt idea.
President Roosevelt took the veto
formula with him to the Yalta Confer
ence, where the general outlines of
the formula were approved.
Mr.. Roosevelt had his eyes on two
delicate spots in packing the veto in his
Yalta bag.
One was the Congress OF the United
States, which has great say in any
thing pertaining to American foreign
policy and which might have baked at
a United Nations without suficient
checks. AS specific point it is con-
ceivable that the Security Council
might have to use troops or force to
back its decisions. Congress alone has
the right to declare war. So the United
States would want definite word in
the final deliberations to assure that q

Yug0slavs Dig In.
While negotiations continued on this
point reports were current that the
Yugoslavs were taking advantage of
the delay to dig in. When Titos forces
entered Trieste the Italian Council of
National Liberation which, the British
and Americans were informed, was COM
posed of people who had worked under
ground during the German occupation,
were waiting in the City Hall to greet
the liberators. The council, however,
was disbanded and some of its members
arrested. Reports since indicate that
some 10000 Italians were deported from

Agreement with the Yugoslavs finally
was reached on June 8 and on June 13
the Allied Military Government moved
into Trieste. The line of demarcation
was settled by Britains 1t Gen. w. D.
Morgan and the Yugoslav chief of staff.
Thus was established the now famous
Morgan line behind which the British
and American maintain their patrols
on the one side, the Yuogslavs on the
other. The new international zone plan
provides for the moving of this line
slightly to the west and it is in this

Military Government took over from

Government had decided that the ad-

Yugoslavs, did not represent the popula-
ton fairly. Accordingly an order was
issued establishing a new government.
1t provided for division of the British

FRANCE-Still rebuilding after the
devastation of war and occupation,
France sees the veto as good insurance
policy. Sitting between Russia and the
western powers, France conceivably
could use the veto as a balance wheel.
France already has shown signs of being
the prime mover of compromises in the
Security Council.
CHINA-Agreeable to the veto now,
but not too strong for it. China already
has offered to do away with the veto on
atomic questions, strongly indorsing the
United States atomic energy control
plan In that respect.
What Is the veto?
Used Five Times by Russia.
1t is the authority granted in the
U. N. Charter for any one of the five
big powers, designated as permanent
members of the Security Council, to kill
any question of substance if that pow
er does not approve of it.
Since the Council set up shop last
January. Russia has used the veto five
times. Russia tried it sixth time on
the, matter of Canada sitting at the Sc
curity Council table on questions affect
ing atomic energy in which Canada has
a definite stake as member of the
Atomic Energy Commission. In that
instance, however, the four-power dec
laration made in San Francisco was
brought up and Russia's delegate, Andrei
A. Gromyko, did not press the point.
The Horsepower declaration in which
France later joined covered specific
questions on the voting procedure Of
the Security Council, outlining what
would be procedura1 and what would
be questions of substance.
On matters of procedure, Article ~ OF

Bv Francis ". CARPENTER


NEW YORK-The veto right of the
five great powers will be the big issue
in the September session of the United
Nations General Assembly. 1t seems
almost certain that the veto power will
emerge unchanged.
This same veto power was the princi-
pal issue at San Francisco last year
when the United Nations Organization
was set up. The United States delega-
ton stanchly supported 1t. The little
nations were told, in effect, that it was
veto or nothing"
their intention of bringing up the ques-
ton in September Others are set to
join in the opposition.
No change can be made in the United
Nations Charter without the assent of
all of the five big powers: China, France,
Russia, the United Kingdom and the
United States. On the basis Of present
attitudes of those powers, the prospect
is for a slam-bang battle of words, after
which the veto will stand.
(The views expressed here are based
on the public speeches and comments OF
the Security Council delegates, their
spokesmen, or persons familiar with
their positions. They represent the lat
est thought in the Council on the
troublesome veto question:
Lineup of Big Five.
The lineup Of the Big Five is roughly
this:
RUSSIA-Strong for the veto as 1t is,
with an extremely liberal way of inter-
preting questions of which to invoke
the veto. It is reported reliably in Soviet
circles that Russia has the firm, def
mite and final conviction that the veto
should stand without change.
THE UNITED STATES Strong for
the veto but favoring Its use only on
grave and serious occasions, such as the
possibility Of resorting to force to main
tain the peace.

The latter group includes employees of several local firms who filled jobs in western branches, and military personnel who established homes at various posts throughout the coun- try.
 Many of those coming back home have put the furniture in storage because of the shortage of homes, the moving official said, and are currently doubilng up with friends or relatives, or, living in a furnish ed room.
 A survey recently made by The Democrat of the building inspect- or's office clearly indicates why Waterbury is now facing a despet' ate housing shortage. While more than 200 low-cost homes were built pearly during the war years, exc cepting l045, less then 50 dwellings were erected during the decade from 1929 through 1899. One home was build within the entire Water bury area in 1883, and not one dwelling was put up in 1894.

Three Decrees Granted Here Court Dlsmisses
 veFnale Action,
 C0untersuit

A divorce action brought by Angelo (Charles) J. Vernale of Waterbury against Onda Irma Catalani Vernsle also of this city, and her cross-complaint were dis missed by Superior Court Judge Charles J. Mclaughlin yesterday afternoon. Three divorce decrees were granted following hearings be- fore Judge Francis A. Pallotti at the afternoon session of the court.
 Judge Mclaughlin ruled that physical violence alleged by the Vernales was mot of such charac- ter as to constitute intolerable cruelty" He said that neither of the parties appeared to take the marital obligations very seriously.
 The jurist ruled that custody of the couples two children should remain jointly for both the mother and father providing they reside with their maternal grandparents. The couple married Feb. II, 1926 and each alleged the other be- came cruel, July l, 1897.
 Edna Dubay Guimond of Water bury was granted a divorce from Walter Guimond, local soldier, on the ground of misconduct, and was given permission to resume use of her former name. The couple were married Jan. 25, 1936.
 Custody of three children was granted to Helen Cecelia Gregory of Waterbury, who was given 8 di- vorce from David Walter Gregory Waterbury Serviceman, on the ground of cruelty. The father will have the right of visitation. Pro- vision was made for payment of $5 weekly for support. The couple were married Feb. 6, 1888.
 A charge of misconduct was the basis of the decree issued to John William Grundage of Prospect in his action against Irene Eleanor Smith Brundage of Hartford. He was given custody of minor child. The couple were married Oct. 8, l94l,

CoIored Pdtrolnlan Appointed by Bodrd Supernumerary Policeman Cicero
 Booker Named; IS New 06icefs,
 Including IS Veterans Named

Cicero B. Booker, a supernumer- ary policeman since October {, t045, was yesterday named Q regular pa- trolman at special meeting of the Board of Police Commissioners The appointment of Patrolman Booker marked the first time in the history of the Department that a Negro has received such an appoint ment.
 The special meeting also includ- ed disappointment of lS new men as members of the supernumerary force. Among these were IS re- gently returned World War IT veter- ans.
 Four long time members of the Department retired earlier this week, received the combined con- gratulations of the Board as well as that of Police Chief William J. Roach.
 Patrolman Booker was chosen from three supernumeraries to fill a vacancy on the force. Patroiman Booker was nominated by Superin- tendent Roach and selected in pref erence to the other two candidates, Valmore Caron and James Foley. 2he Negro officer was born in Norton Carolina g years ago and has resided in this city for 19 years He is married and the father of three children.
 Training Course
 The l8 newly appointed super numerarieS, said Supt. Roach, will be assigned to duty as patrolmen upon the completion of a two weeks training course. This two weeks training course is another first in the department. It is the first time that such training has been possible, said Supt. Roach. He added, however, that this short course will not be all the training the men will receive. He said that more training is scheduled, but is not possible at the moment due to the fact that 1t is necessary to get these men on duty as soon as pos- sible.
 The new men, said the Superin- tendent, will be broken into their jobs by being assigned to tours of duty with regular patrolmen.
 Chairman Raymond Tanning, speaking to the eighteen men, said:
 "The city is fortunate in obtain ing the services of young men of character and intelligence.
 Comsr. Tanning told the men that they were selected from a large group of candidates and ad- vised them to consider their ap- pointmentS as "a beginning, in the sense of a school commencement; and exert your efforts to remain 6

 Supt. Roach formally notified the board of the automatic retirement of four veteran policemen as ok Jan. 1. The four officers have a combined record of more than l60 years of service. Those retired. with the dates of their joining the department, follow: It. John r. Dunphy, July IS, 1902; Terrence Lynch, Dec. i6, 1902; Jeremiah Hunihan, May 8, 1908; and Patrick J. Reilly, Dec. IS, 1909.
 Commissioner Tanning, speaking in behalf of all the Board members, joined Superintendent Roach in congratulating the four retiring vet- erans, and in voicing the city's grat- itude for their long and faithful service.
 Superintendent Roach also read to the board a letter in which he congratulated the Detective Bureau on its work in the recent capture of seven safe burglars. The letter also expressed thanks to the local press for cooperating with police in with- holding information that would have made the roundup of the sev- en men more difficult and perhaps impossible.

Day. And 1t was helped along by re- ports from high sources that the reconversion program was doing much better than had been antici- pated.
 Best prices for the year were at- tained in December. These repre- sented wide gains for the year and almost sensational gains in some instances from April 28, l942, the end of the latest bear market and the beginning of the current bull phase.
 Values Up $20 Billions
 It was estimated that the market rose $20,000, ,000,0 in valuation of all listed issues. Bonds had a rise almost as great, but that came only because of addition to the list of many new government issues which increased the total value without necessarily raising the price of the markets real value.
 Stocks transactions were around the 100000, ,000, 900 share mark, the best since the 409, ASA y570-share turnover of 1937. Bond valuation of less than $2,30O, 100000 was some- what above 1944 but under l943. Curb volume rose sharply late in the year, and for e few sessions, the Curb Exchange turnover exceeded that for stocks on the Big Board. ' MaGket leadership lacked the caliber of former bull markets. Low priced stocks topped the list. Some of the group graduated from the penny class to the dollar class and some of these low-priced issues reg istered gains of several thousand per cent. Much of the dealings in these low-priced shares was for cash early in the year; all of 1t later because of margin requirements.
 Top issues in volume included sev- eral in the cheap utility and auto mobile groups, with a few aircrafts tossed in for good measure. Traders rotated groups, however, and kept buying the issues believed behind the market so that the whole list profited by the demand for popular stocks. For a time stocks of com panies with relatively easy reconver- sion prospects were in demand. Then came a drive to buy com modity stocks, then store stocks, and from time to time the rails were given boost.
 Experts late in the year were try ing to measure the markets future. Many felt there would be substan- tial decline in January, but a major ity felt this only would be tempo rary, followed by new rise for a year, perhaps two years. It was pointed out that the market infla- ton might follow the course of World War I days when the list out stripped real estate and commod- tiles.
 With the small trades on the buy ing side, the market analysts admit ted that predictions were difficult to make since the little fellows did not follow sound market practice but bought on emotional urge and sold just as rapidly if they became badly frightened. A genuine fright might well stampede the traders in- to dumping their holdings, with a resultant break from which the market might not recover for years As the year ended, however, the ex- perts did not visualize any outstand- ing event that would cause such stampede.
