Russia Turns Down
Proposal TO Return
Trieste 10 Italy
By the Asxoeiotsd Press

LONDON. April 14.-Russia has
turned down the western power pro-
posal to give Trieste back to Italy,
Moscow radio announced last night
(The Moscow press published
without comment today a Tass
dispatch reporting that Russia
has rejected the proposal)
A Soviet note terming the Sug-
gestion unacceptable was delivered
to the governments of Britain
France and the United States yes
terday, the broadcast said.
(State Department officials said
last night they had not yet re-
ceived Russia's reply. There was
|. no official comment in advance
of formal delivery of the note)
Foreign Minister Bidault oi
France first broached the idea pub
licly in a speech at Turin, Italy, on
March 81. 1t was hailed frankly
at the time as a bid for anti
Communist support in the Italian
elections next Sunday.
Treaty Provisions Recalled.
The proposal called for Paris
meeting of the powers principally
concerned early in May to con-
slider the future of Trieste.
Yesterdays Soviet note. the broad
cast said, pointed out that Trieste
was created a free city and terri
tory by the Italian peace treaty
signed by 81 nations, including the
Big Four. 1t said revision of the
treaty by means of correspond
ence or by convening private con-
ferences" is unacceptable and vio-
lates elemental principles OF
democracy.
The note was in response to for
NAL n-British-French sug-
gestions on Trieste made to Russia
in notes on March 20 and reiter-
ated last Friday with an urgent
request for action.
Among other things, the Russian
action apparently ruled out
Yugoslav suggestion that Italy and
Yugoslavia get together on Trieste's
future.

Returning to the news conference,

From his conversation with Gen

Mr.. Lovett said Gen. Marshall's s

great degree of organization and
planning became manifest quickly
after the incident.

among the conference delegates in
Bogota, he said, that the basic cause

requirements exist in any case and
cannot be met by substitution of

Large and powerful air forces
alone do not constitute air power.
Only by employment of air forces
in concert with land and sea forces
can there be such a thing as air
power. I want to make my position
clear. The development of air
power is essential to the national
security, but equally important is
the development OF sea and land
power. The apparent failure of
many people to realize the need for
an Army stems from a belief that
If we place the bulk OF our reliance
on air power, there will be no use
for land power

leves it should have Is divisions

nothing more than an elementary

Chinese Nationalist
And Reds Prepare for
Marking Road Battle
By the Assoeiotsd Press

NANKING, Nov. 40. - Sporadic
fighting persisted around Suchow

another battle on the road to Nam

fighting near Nienchuang, 80 miles

with four huge columns-possibly
10000 men-but were thrown back
when government planes Joined the
battle.
ReinfOrcements Being Sent.
The press had nothing new on re-
ports "a hours earlier that govern
ment troops had moved out 10 miles
east of Suchow.
Other press accounts said Com
munist troops also tried to make an
other attack on Suhsien, the railway
point so miles south OF Suchow, but
were intercepted and encircled.
Gen. Ho in his report to the
cabinet emphasized that reinforce
ments were being sent to this sector
Of the front.
The government was rushing re-
pairs to the damaged railway south
Of Suchow and along the Lunghai
line stretching east.
The area still appeared dotted
with Communist bands. One dis
patch said a repair gang trying to
work south out of Suchow was
chased away by Red machinegun

Funds Being Collected.
Both the government and civic
bodies were gathering funds to do
nate to front line units for standing
firm in the battle for Suchow.
Meanwhile, the United States en-
bassy reported that Chinese Com
