Hank Greenberg has gotten over
his peeve against the Detroit
Tigers and will play ball with
Pittsburgh after all. Pittsburgh
owners finally convinced Hankus
that he owed it to the Pittsburgh
fans to at least play one year in
the Smokey City. OF course the
big boy will collect a tremendous
salary, probably higher than BaDe
Ruth's 100000 received in the
Golden Era of baseball salaries.
The Pirates won't take a financial
beating on this deal since hundreds
of thousands of dollars worth of
tickets were sold Immediately af-
ter the acquisition of Greenberg
was announced. There is cOnSid-
cradle talk to the effect that the
BUGS are trying to purchase the
recaltrant Stan Musial from the
st. Louis Cardinals. If such a deal
should be cOnsumated the Pirates
with Greenberg, Musical and Kine1
would be enough to shoot the sew
enth place Pirates to the top OF
the National League.

US. PROPOSES ELECTION BE
 HELD, KOREA
LIN Supervision of Ndtion- al Elections Would End
 Long Deadlock

LAKE SUCCESS, N. Y, Oct. IT i-lP-The United States has taken a step designed to speed the in- dependence of Korea.
 Toward this end, the United States asked the United Nations Assembly today to set up a special commission to keep tabs on an early Korean election of na- tional assembly.
 The American resolution proposed that the election in Korea be held not later than next March 31. In addition to speeding Korea's in- dependence, the American resolu- tion-if approved-would have the effect of breaking the long United States Soviet Russia deadlock over the territory annexed by Japan in 1910.
 Meantime, Britain has appealed to Russia directly to accept a Brit ish compromise on the Marshall program for overhauling the United Nations peace keeping machinery. The appeal was made by British Attorney General Sir Hartley Shawcross.
 Employing sarcasm in his speech Shawcross accused Russia's Andrei Visl1fnsky of making what he call ed "an excursion into the realm of fantasy" in opposing the Ameri- can plan. This is the proposal for a year. round sitting of the ST. nations as a sort of little assem- bly,
 At the same time, Shawcross urged Vishinsky to meet the Brit ish halfway in an effort to end so-called vehement and inflama- tory speeches"
