France May Propose
Balkan Commission
Compromise Today
BY the Assoeiotsj Press

LAKE SUCCESS, July 11.-There
was $3.50 chance today that
France would take the initiative In
an attempt to reconcile the OPP
posed American and Russian pro-
posals for settlement of the Balkan
disorders.
Authoritative sources said Alex
andre Parodi, chief French dele
gate, might formally submit a COM
promise proposal when the United
Nations Security Council convened
this morning.
Despite American coolness to the
Parodi' proposal, which was dis
closed to the American delegation
in informal talks, these sources said
the French delegate had not de-
cided to shelve his compromise plan
Details Are Lacking.
The French plan was understood
to be designed to water down the
American resolution calling for a
semi mi-permanent investigation COM
mission to halt Greek border dis
turbances.
Details of the French proposal
were lacking, but it was reported to
call for commission without power
to act except with the express con-
sent of Greece and Russia's three
satellites-Yugoslavia, Bulgaria and
Albania.
The compromise wording would
give the commission power only to
help the government work out prob
lens of minorities, refugees and
border conventions.
The American delegation has
made it clear that it would settle
for nothing less than a commission
with power to handle the border
disputes and halt them.
Russia already has rejected the
commission idea, put all the blame
on Greece, and insisted that the
Athens government itself take steps
to correct the situation.
The Soviet Union suggested that
as q step toward clearing up the
situation all foreign troops should
be pulled out of Greece.
Since the Security Council did
not take up the Balkan question
yesterday, all hope of reaching a
vote on the issue today faded. Most
delegates, however, believed that
the Council would reach vote next
week.
Candidate Is Sought.
Meanwhile, the Security Council
failed again to reach any agree
nent on a candidate for the, gov
ernorship of Trieste.
At a closed session yesterday
Australia, Poland and Columbia
were named to collect information
about candidates already suggested
as we'll as other possible candidates" j."
Colombia submitted the names OF
four new candidates from Panama,
Chile, Peru and Mexico, which will
be considered by the three-2ation
committee.
The names of the new candidates
we're not disclosed, but there was
speculation in informed quarters
that they might include Manuel
Avila Camacho, former President OF
Mexico, and Ricardo Alfaro, former
President of Panama.
