United Nations Branded A Failure In IndOnesia
tBY John A. Paris, Jr.)

LAKE SUCCESS, (P) - The United Nations security council, its efforts to halt hostilities in In donesia branded a failure by the Netherlands, appeared headed for trouble Saturday in it's efforts to reach a decision on the problem.
 Dr. Eelco N Van Kleffens, the Netherlands representative, deliv- cred a virtual ultimatum to the council Friday, demanding that the council either send troops" to Indonesia to police it's cease-fire order, or keep hands off and let the Dutch handle the situation.
 He said that killing had increas- ed in IndoneSia since the CeaSe-fire order and implied that further in- tervention would intensity the conflict
 On the basis of statements made by the various delegates at two sessions Friday 1t appeared the council might find it difficult to work out an acceptable solution of the difficulty.
 Soviet deputy foreign minister Andrei Gromyko said he was un- able to accept proposals which had been submitted by Australia, the United States and China. These proposals would call for commits sionS either of three members or of conSults in Batavia to super wise the U. N. cease-fire order

The Spark Now Flaring In Greece
 Could Start World ConiIagration HI

NEW YORK, (P) - National commander Paul H. Griffith, sounding serious warning amid the festive preparations for the American Legion's 29th annual convention opening Thursday, said that "the critical situation which has developed in Greece within the past few hours |. could spread into world conflagra- tion on a moments notice"
 Griffith called a news confer ence late yesterday soon after his arrival from Washington, D. C., where he said he had talked to President Truman. Asked by. a re- porter if he favored sending troops abroad to support the Tru- man doctrine, the Legion com- mander replied:
 "I don't see how you can en- force anything without using po- lice. If it takes troops we should

send troops.
 ''If and when Greece is invaded there's no use to wait like we waited before. If there is no other way to stop them but to send troops, then we should send troops"
 Griffith, who lives in Union town, Pa, said that the Legion's executive committee, which begins pre-convention sessions today, was almost unanimously in favor" of the Truman policy "of aid to Greece and Turkey" and any other small countries having "a foreign theology forced upon them"
 Asked if he thought the United Nations could resolve the situa- ton in Greece, where a govern ment crisis developed over the weekend, Griffith replied:

DOukhObOrs Burn Homes Protesting World War HI

SOUTH SLOGAN, B. C., (P)- Five men and woman were un- der arrest Saturday on charges connected with a reign of arson and terror in the Kootenay valley which some officials attributed to a fanatical Doukhobor sect pro- testing the coming of a third world war"
 These authorities expressed the belief that some of the nude, chanting, praying radicals were burning their own homes to en- phasize the nature of their sacri- ficial protests against war.
 Police endorsements were mov- ing into the fertile valley-250 miles east of Vancouver-Satur- day at the request of other Douk- hobors who feared further burn ings and terrorism. Attorney gen. eral Gordon 5. Wismer appointed w. w. Ferguson of Nelson, B. C., a special prosecutor to act against the terrorists.
 Police identified two of the Doukhobors in custody as Nickoll BoriSkoff and Annie Kostinoff and said they are the others - who were not identified by name - were taken into custody after farmhouseS famed as separate sects of the ssian-ancestored re- ligious group put the torch to homes.
 More than a score of homes, schools and community buildings have been burned since the terror first began several weeks ago.

Yugoslav Mob
 Kills Priest And Injures Prelate

ROME, (P) - An Italian news agency dispatch from Trieste to- day said a mob in the Yugoslav zone of Venezia-Giulia inflicted grave injuries yesterday on Vat ican prelate sent to confirm chil- dren in the area, and killed To- cal priest who tried to defend him.
 The agency, Ansa, said the pre- late, Msgr Giacomo Ukmar, was taken to a Plume hospital suffer- ing from a skull fracture and seri- ous knife wounds in the region of the kidneys. It said the Rev. Miro Buleisch tried to guard Msgr. Uk- mar and was cut so seriously he died almost immediately.
 The attack was at Lanische, in that part of the Istrian peninsula known as Zone B, occupied by Premier Marshal Tito's forces. Ansa said the Vatican sent Msgr. Ukmar, a native of Trieste, to the area after hostile manifestations prevented Msgr. Antonio Santin, bishop of Trieste and Capodistria, from conducting confirmations.
 Bishop Santin was treated roughly at Capodistria two months ago, but escaped serious injury. He informed the Vatican in June, l946, that ''Slav Communists were preventing him from exercising his ministry in the zone.
 When Msgr Ukmar reached Lanische Sunday, Ansa said, part of a crowd advanced upon him with knives barred. The priest, moving to defend him, was slash ed and his body tossed aside, and the prelate was assaulted.

(By The Associated PreSS)
 The mid-west's week-long heat wave was vanishing today in a flood of cool air from Canada which brought rain to much of the parched corn belt.
 H. s. Kenny, government wea- ther forecaster at Chicago, said the rainfall, ranging from very light to moderate, brought mois- ture to more of Iowa, south and eastern Nebraska, northern and western Missouri, and northern Illinois and Indiana.
 Extensive showers were forecast for the central and lower portions of Illinois and Indiana today.
 The rains had sharp repercus- sions on the corn futures market, September quotations at Chicago breaking the limit of eight cents before rallying slightly.
 A bowling tropical storm which caused widespread but generally minor property damage at Calves ton, Texas, yesterday was playing itself out in heavy rainfall today as broad wedge of cool air poked eastward across the north central states.
 Whistling along at 68 to 70 miles an hour, the storm blew into Gal weston and neighboring Texas City yesterday afternoon. Some homes were unroofed, house and store windows blown in, and com munication and power lines ripped down.

Russia Balks
 Balkan Proposals: Greek Govt. Falls
By The Associated Press


 The government fell in Greece Saturday, four days after the United Nations security council, baked by Russian vetoes, admitted it's inability to resolve the Balkan problem.
 The immediate cause for the resignation of Demetrios Maxi mos cabinet was three leading ministers insistence on a reshuf- fling of the government "in order to strengthen confidence external ly and increase creative output in- formally" Behind the immediate situation, however, were other fac tors:
 1. An inflatiOn-ridden economy which the United States, with part of it's 100000 Greek-aid pro- gram, is pledged to improve.
 ?. Guerrilla warfare against the Athens government, which it has attributed largely to it's neighbors, YugoSlavia, Albania and Bulgaria A United Nations investigating commission found those three countries responsible, in varying degrees, for troubles on Greec's northern border.
 Efforts to condemn these assert ed "aCtS of provocation" and to set up a border watch were thWarted in the U. N. security council Tues day, at the end of the councils 60th meeting on the Balkan queS- ton, president Paris Bey Fl Khou- ry, of Syria, declared the U.

tBY Vern Haugland)

forest service, said today the Fed eral government will call for bids October 1 on eight billion board feet of pulp timber near Thomas Bay, Alaska.
 Because of the huge investment that would be involved-S30 ,000,- 900 to $4O,0O0,0 0,0O0-the forest serv- ice took the unusual step of call ing for oral bids, the auction to be held here in the south agriculture building.
 Candidates will be screened before being allowed to take par: in the auctiOn-aS to their flnan- cial resources, and knowledge of timber, water power and other op- erating conditions in Southeastern Alaska.
 Each bid for the 5O-year con tract must be accompanied by a bank draft or certified check fer S25, 1000, and the successful bidder must show evidence that he has at least $8,OOO,OOO for plant construc- ton.
 Secretary of the interior Krug told reporters one U. s. pulp pa per mill already has survey par ~, ;.> +ho oroo opl +,,,o o+bar cOro- . panies have survey teams on the way
 "The outlook is very encourag- ing" he said.
 Meanwhile Irwin w. Silveiman, acting director of the interior deS partment's territories division, pointed out these additional indi- cations of forthcoming rapid de- velopment of Alaska:
 l. The opening to homestead settlement of 45,000 additional acres of agricultural land in the Matanuska Valley, in the Wasilla- Goose Bay region 48 miles from Palmer, headquarters of the pres ent Matanuska project. War vete~- ans may start applying Oct. Y, and the first grants will be made six months later.
 ?. The opening of 2,750,0O0 acres along the Alaska highway for use as tracts of five acres or less for houses, camps, gasoline stations, restaurants, hotels and other facilities to serve all enter tainment motorists in Alaska. Set clement on these small tracts will begin Oct. 2.
 g. Development of Chilkoot war veterans settlement during the past summer. One hundred fam flies belong to the Alaska Coopera- tive company which purchased the former army camp mile from Haines and 75 miles northwest of Juneau for $1O5,O00.
