Big 4 Deputies Meet

Powers Have Till Sept. IS

deputies assembled in London
today to take another whack at
settling the future of the Ital-
ian colonies in Africa-which
Benito Mussolini was pleased to
call the new Roman empire"
Italy renounced sovereignty ovel

Africa, Eritrea and Italian Somali-
land in East Africa under the peace
treaty which became effective Sep

Conference nor the Big -Four Foreign
Ministers, however, were able to
agree on final disposition of those
colonies.
Britain, France, Russia and the
United States have until Septem-
ber Is, 1948, to settle the issue. II
they fail, the problem, by the terms
of the peace treaty, falls into the
lap of the United Nations. Mean
while, Britain is acting as tenn
porary trustee.

Besides these four colonies, com
prising 100000 square miles and

Ethiopia got back her own inde-

Ukraine Charges u. 5

Greek Intervention
MonuiIsky's Accusations
Delivered Before U. N.
Political Committee
By the Associoted Press

LAKE SUCCESS, Oct. 3.-Rus-
sia renewed her attacks on the
United States today with a
charge by Dmitri Manuilsky,
Foreign Minister of the Soviet
Ukraine, that the American
Government was trying to throw
a smoke screen to cover inter
vention" in Greece.
The shaggy-haired Ukrainian,
who has delivered some of Russia S
main speeches on the Balkan dis
pute, made his charges before the
57-nation Political Committee of
the General Assembly in a 53-min-
ute speech.
He kept on the line laid down
yesterday by Albania and Bulgaria
two of Russia's Balkan satellites.
They said the United States and
Britain were primarily responsible
for the Balkan troubles. and not
Greece's northern neighbors.
Figured in Balkan Dispute.
Mr.. Manuilsky figured in the
Balkan dispute a year ago by filing
complaint with the Security Coun-
Gil demanding immediate with
drawal of British troops from
Greece. At that time he flew to
New York with two suitcases full of
documents and took part personally
in 10 long council sessions.
This week Mr.. Manuilsky was the
center of another major fight-the
continuing deadlock between the
Ukraine and India in the contest
for the Security Council seat which
Poland will vacate December 81.
Mr.. Manuilsky probably would
represent the Ukraine on the Council
if. the Ukraine defeats India when
the Assembly attempts to end the
impasse sometime next week in
plenary session at Flushing Meadow
Park, N. Y.
Palestine Accord Doubted.
Meanwhile, diplomatic authorities
said that the United Nations ap-
peared to have but slight chance
of working out settlement for the
Jewish Arab conflict over Palestine
which would be acceptable to both
sides and avert all danger of a
shooting showdown in the Holy
Land.
The outcome most generally ex-
pected here is that come solution
will be proposed which will be more
agreeable to one side than the other
and that the United Nations will
have to take responsibility for en-
| forcing it with some sort of inter-
national policing arrangement. That
presumably would mean contribu-
tions of armed forces by member
Nations for the specific purpose.
The Jewish Agency for Palestine
told United Nations special COM
mittee yesterday that it was pre-
pared to accept "in sadness and
most reluctantly" partition of the
Holy Land if that YES the only
