Harsh Police Harry
u. N, Russians Say
By the Associated Press

MOSCOW, Oct. 25.-Both the
Moscow press and radio carried
today a Tass dispatch from New
York saying American police as
signed to the United Nations Cen
eral Assembly were displaying a
harsh and tactless' attitude toward
delegates, particularly toward those
of the Soviet Union.
THE first days work was very
unorganized," Tass said. "A great
number of policemen and detectives
who flooded the territory OF Flushing
Meadow did not aid the order
of procedure one bit"
The Tass correspondent said it
was noted that the opening OF the
General Assembly was delayed 20
minutes because Robert Kenney,
U. N. worker who had hurried to
deliver the official translation of the
speech of the chairman, was held up
by guards"
"Only after long negotiations with
police officials was he permitted.
after leaving his car several kilo-
meters from the General Assembly
building, to deliver the material by
foot" Tass said.
Moscow newspapers carried several
paragraphs of indirect quotations
today from President Truman's
address at the opening OF the
Assembly Wednesday.
The papers said the. President
stressed the United States with
drawal from its former isolationist
policy and stated that the over
whelming majority of the American
people support the United Nations. "

Mr.. Alexander then took refuge
behind house rule requiring de-

Embassy Here Charges
Secret Reason for Report
By the Associoted Press


The Spanish Embassy last night
said it is convinced there is Sc
cret" reason for U. n. Secretary
General Trygve Lies ''tirade against
Spain" and suggested he had acted
"for the special benefit of some OF
his friends"
Terming Mr.. Lies report quite
amazing the Embassy said in a
statement that I'VE feel sure that
the day will come when the secret
of Mr.. Lies attitude. which pre-
sents the secretary general as an
Spanish belligerent within the
United Nations, will be known
I'VE are convinced that there Is
such a secret the Embassy state
ment said.
otherwise, it would be incon-
ceivable that Mr. Trygve Lie, who
knows absolutely nothing about
Spain, and to whom the So-called
Spanish problem is of no conse-
auence at all, should dare to give
rise to the useless scandal of his
unwarranted aggression.
IF the secretary general OF the
United Nations has tried to spread
a thick curtain of smoke for the
special benefit of some Of his friends
we assume that his maneuver
will not prosper

MADRID, Oct. 25.-The Falangist
Arriba today denounced
as a typical monument to Com
munist shamelessness" Secretary
General Trygve Lies report urging
the United Nations Assembly to
prompt action against the Franco
regime.
Arriba, the monarchist newspaper
ABC and the Catholic newspaper
va all carried a 450-word dispatch
of the official Spanish news agency
EFE on Mr.. Lies address.
Arriba carried the dispatch under
the headline: Another Communist
Coup in U. NJ" It said editorially
that "the motheaten accusation OF
Fascist hurled by Mr.. Lie against
the Spanish nation and against its
concomitances with the Axis powers
constitutes a typical monument to
Communist shamelessneSS."
va said editorially that Mr.. Lie
could not, without hypocrisy and
falsehood, maintain what he main
tains because We are unable to
doubt that he is perfectly ac-
quainted with the reality we affirm. y
1t said those who called the Span
ish government Fascist ARE en-
tirely ignorant of what the Spanish
regime is, since it is contrary. Of
rather diametrically opposed by its
Christian character to pantheism OF
the state"
ABC, without mentioning Mr.. Lie
by name, cited President Truman
and Prime Minister Attlee to show
that the United Nations had more
important matters than the Spanish
regime to consider, and added that
"as Attlee said, the threat OF outside
interference, instead of deepening
differences, eliminates them ano
definitely unites the Spaniards.

Liquor Dealers Keep
Prices as They Were
But Admit Confusion

District liquor dealers generally
reported prices unchanged today
despite the dropping of price con-
trolls. But they added that the
market was in confusion, and they
had not been able to learn what they
would have to pay the wholesalers
for fresh supplies.
Blended whisky was selling mostly
at OPA ceiling prices and. in some
instances. under them. This type
of whisky prevails on the market.
Bonded bourbon and imported
Scotch, scarce items, virtually van
ished from the shelves long ago.
Some dealers said they had few
bottles for old customers, and were
selling them at the old prices,
though they admitted these might
90 up any time.
One large dealer called "fantas-
tic a published price list showing
rare brands doubled in price. Il
can't get those brands at any price, +"
he said. "but I've heard of no one
selling Johnny Walker at $3.50, in
stead of the ceiling price of $5.44, or
Old Grandad at $7.89 instead of
$467. I just don't believe it"
Another dealer explained that the
small quantities of these scarce
whiskies which wholesalers had been
able to get were sold almost entirely
to taverns and clubs.
The Associated Press reported that
in Chicago liquor dealers were ad-
vertising bonded bourbon and Scotch
"all you want at prices 25 to 40
per cent above the former ceilings.
Two top brands of bourbon were
being offered there at So fifth re-
tail. compared with ceilings of $482
and S5.98. The supply of this rare
whisky, described at 40 per cent be-
low normal, was not expected to last
long. even at the fancy prices.

Churchill and AHIee
|5pearheadine British
|Anticommunisf Front
Ex-Prime Minister Says
He Hos Facts to Buck
| Charge on Red Forces
BY the Asseeiatsd Press

LONDON, Oct. 25.-Winston
Churchill and Prime Minister
Attlee captured Britain's head
lines today with almost simulta-
neous verbal blasts against Rus
sia in what appeared to be shap-
ing up as a solid British front
against communism.
Mr.. Churchill told his constituents
in suburban Loughton last night
that he had facts" and evidence"
to support his suggestion made in
the form of question before the
House of Commons Wednesday
that the Soviet Union now has 200
divisions-more than 1000 900 men
on a full war footing in Russian
occupied Eastern Europe.
He lauded Mr.. Attlee's speech be-
fore the Trades Union Congress at
Brighton earlier in the day in which
the Prime Minister bluntly accused
Soviet leaders of erecting wall oi
| ignorance and suspicion" between
the Russian people and the rest ol
the world.
Serious Warning Given.
"The fact that the British govern.
ment have decisively broken with
the Communists and are frontec
with them. although it does not i'm.
mediately affect the course of affairs
in this island" Mr.. Churchill said
has an important and beneficial
result abroad, because there art
countries on the continent-liks
France-quivering under the Com.
munist attack"
He said his Wednesday speech
should be regarded as "a seriou.
warning" and added:
II did not ask the question (about
Russian forces without weighing
very carefully the whole matter ane
without consulting others, m.
friends and colleagues. and layinl
before them the evidence on whicl
I proceeded.
Nor did ask the question with.
out informing the government be-
forehano of my intentions. but yol
can take it from me that the fact.
l adduced are correct"
Press Critical of Methods.
Government spokesmen remained
resolutely silent with regard to Mr.
Churchill's embarrassing inquiry
but some sections of the press were
| increasingly critical of the wartime
Prime Minister'S methods.
What ought not to be DONE" the
Daily Mirror said, "is to state Brit
aims differences with Russia ir

sian reference to solidarity, declaring
that some members think it is in
the interest of solidarity to discuss
the question openly"
Vishinsky Makes Brief Statement.
Mr.. Vishinsky declared that any
change in the veto provisions of the
u. N. Charter would be "a heavy
blow" to the new world organization
In a brief early statement before
the committee, the Soviet repre-
sentative said:
In brief statement before the
14-nation committee, the Soviet
representative said:
Soviet Russia will reserve, its
right to express its opinion more
in detail at the right time. l will
now say only that these items
should be stricken from the agenda. u
He referred to Australian and
Cuban proposals for thorough dis
cussion of the veto issue, with a
view to restricting its use or eliml-
mating it entirely.
Mr.. Vishinsky said unanimity was
"the basis of solidarity in the
Security Council. He then said that
"in the spirit of solidarity" Russia
called on the committee to join in
eliminating the veto question from
the discussions.
Snarl in Committee.
The General Committee held It's
first session last night on approving
the program of So issues, plus sup.
Elemental list, but became involved
in legalistic snarl over a row be-
tween India and South Africa and
failed to get to the veto dispute.
The India South Africa fight was
settled only after Shawcross as
serted hotly that I'VE are in
danger of reducing this COM
mittee to laughing stock by
failing to decide a relatively minor
question. Committee Chairman
Paul Henri Spaak of Belgium said
he was not quite sure about the
meaning of two votes taken on the
question, but added that the As
sembly could figure things out for
itself.
Today's general debate was sched-
uled to include addresses by Philip
Noel Baker of Britain. Jose Arce
of Argentina. Dr. Carlos Stolk OF
Venezuela and Mrs. Viajaya Lakshmi
Pandit of India.
There was some expectation that
Mr.. Noel-Baker's speech - setting
forth Britain's policies for this ses-
sion of the peace organization
might present directly to the As
sembly recently expressed British
government views favoring eventual
modification of the Big Five veto
power.
Mrs. Pandit was understood to be
prepared to present Indias charges
of racial discrimination against
Indians in South Africa, even In
advance of formal action on that
issue by the Steering Committee
In general debate speaker may
talk about anything he wants to.
