Soviet Tries To BuIIyFoes. Farley Told
 BeosIey Clashes
 With Vishinsky
 Over Frontiers

Paris, Aug. T-(UP)-Australia Delegate J. A. Beasley plunged a Peace Conference commission into bedlam today when he furiousIy ac- cused the Russian delegation of "a lot of lying" and trying to bully any country questioning Big Four De- cisions.
 Beasley challenged the veracity of Andri Vishinsky, Soviet Deputy Foreign Commisar, and at one point Tn turbulent slugfest of words they shouted accusations of untruthfuI- ness directly at each other.
 Austraua's pent-up anger over persistent Soviet needing erupted In Beasleys blast before the Italian Political Commission. Hammering the table, shouting at the top of his Volce, and shaking an angry finger at Vish1nsky, the Australian charg- ca the Russian group with trying to thrust its fist down the throat" of anyone questioning Big Four agree. ments.
 Charged Australia Delays
 The row was touched off by Vish- inskys charge that the Australians were trying to delay the conference. They had proposed to set up special investigating subcommittee to study Big Four territorial agree menss.
 In the end Australia withdrew the amendment, and the commission adopted a French compromise. It merely pointed out that the rules of procedure allowed the formation of sub-committees when needed.
 At one point in the clamor, Beas- ley, Vishinsky and Chairman Lief Engeland all were on their feet shouting at once.
 As Beasley closed, he shouted that 1t was Irritating" to hear Vishin- sky's statement yesterday that he doubted that the Australian dele gation represented the Australian people.
 Vishinsky rose and shouted back that no such statement has been made. Beasley, he said, invented" the assertion to present as an argu- ment here.
 eACeAA$SAOh eAAo
 That is not true" Beasley roared back. You did say it." After tempers had cooled a little, Beasley approached Vishinsky at his place with the Soviet delegation and said something. Vishinsky ap- peared to cut him off, and Beasley went back to his place. ViShinSky then triad tos racoll Beasley, but if the Australian heard he gave no sign. Both went back to reading their papers.
 The scene was the most tunultous at the conference since Vishirsky and Secretary of State James F. Byrnes tangled at & plenary session some time ago. =-
 We refuse to be bullied by any, one Beasley cried. We refuse to be intimidated by one power just because it happens 10 be big at the moment"
 Vishinsky had spearheaded Soviet attack on Australia. He &C., cused the Australians of delaying tactics, trying to block Big Four work by many amendments despite the fact that Australia was remote from Europe.
 See Horse Trading"
 At one point in Beasley's outburst. V1shlnsky rose and shouted some thing in Russian. Beasley shouted back, that's all right. You have had lot to say. You can't have it all the time. You've done pretty well. We are in the ring too"
 Beasley charged that only the Russian delegation had delayed the work Of the conference. This, he went on, should be said "a thousand times" so public opinion everywhere, will know what we have had to tolerate here for nearly a month"
 Shortly before the Beasley out- burst, Col. w. R. Hodgson of Aus tralia intimated that the Big Four had been horse trading" on from tier adjustments. His suggestion drew from Vishinsky report that Hodgson was only country lad who comes to the big city and wants to try out all the gadgets."
 Europe Sorry Place
 Twice Beasley said that other delegations here felt the same as he did, and that it was high time they got up now and said just what they thought about the Soviet delega- ton.
 Nobody who has been here 8 month could deny that Europe is very sorry place, even today when the war is over" he said. There must be very great fear everywhere at what is going on, and this is enhanced by the tendency of the Russian delegation to thrust its fist down other peoples threats"
