S. Promises Every Effort
For Austrian Peace Treaty;
South Americans Fight Reds
Big-Four Meeting Schedul.
ed On Treaty In
London

WASHINGTON, Oct. la -
The United States today prom
ised 'every effort at the forth
coming Big Four foreign minis
ters meeting in London to try
to reach agreement on an Aus
trian peace treaty.
The promise was made in a
statement issued here. 1t noted
that the special four power Aus
trian treaty commission, which
has been in session in Vienna
since May Il and has held s.
meetings, completed its work
there today with little progress
made toward agreement on out
standing issues. The four pow
ers are the U. S., Russia, Brit
ain and France.
The foremost of the issues is
the question of German assets
in Austria. Roughly, Russia
wants to define German assets
in such a broad way as to al
low extensive property seizures
by the allied powers whereas
the United States wants a linn
tied definition which would mar
row allied property deiures
considerably in Austria.
Big Four differences over the
Austrian treaty were hardened
in the foreign ministers meet
ing at Moscow last spring.
"The United States regrets
the undue delay in reaching
agreement on the outstanding
points of difference in the Aus
trian treaty." the State Depart
ment statement said.

ForrestuI Moves to Pentuoon:
uWPlunners Shift Uncertain

Secretary OF Defense Forrestal
was in the midst of moving from
his old Navy Department Offices to
the Pentagon Building today, and
officials said the move would be
completed by Monday.
Whether Secretary of the Navy
Sullivan, Admiral Nimitz, chief of
naval operations, and other top
planners of the Navy would join Mr..
Forrestal in the Pentagon remained
problematica1. The Army and new
Air Force departments already are
housed in the huge structure across
the Potomac.
While bringing the top Navy plan
ners closer to the Secretary of De-
fense would have its advantages,
it was pointed out the Navy has in
the so-called World War I "tem-
porary" buildings on Constitution
avenue communications equipment
and the like which connect with all
the corners of the world and would
be expensive to move. A spokes-
man said probably no decision on
