RIO DE JANEIRO, Jan. wal
ter John, governor of the state OF
Rio Grande do Sui, denied today by
telephone from his capital at Porto
Allegro that any revolutionary move
ment was under foot in Southern
Brazil.
Mr.. John issued the denial when
queried about rumors circula ting in

broken out in the garrison ct
Rosario about so miles north Of the
Uruguayan border.
The Uruguayan news agency Ami
said the rumors started circulating
after Brazilian troops had made
their appearance in the border town
of Santa Anna do Livramento. AMI
quoted Brazilian authorities In
Santa Anna as saying the troops
had been ordered there because OF
the threat of q general strike.
In his statement Mr.. Jobin said:
mo incident Of any kind has oc-
Cured in this state. The whole
state is in complete order and work

antee that we are prepared to MAIN
tain order, there positively is no

President Truman is expected to

The appointment will fill vacancy

Since Mr.. Benton resigned in Sep
tember, following prolonged con-
troversy with Congress over the

French President Calls
On Europeans 70 Work
with Marshall Plan
By The A,sseis,Ad p,sss

PARIS, Jan. President Vincent
Auriol called on Europeans today to
unite for their reconstruction and
prosperity. and threw the prestige
Of his ofilee into complete support
for the Marshall plan.s
Speaking to the Anglo-American
Correspondents Association. Mr..
Auriol pledged his nation to work
for economic and political co-opera-
ton toward q victory OF common
sense" His address was broadcast
throughout France.
The President hailed what he
termed the imperialism Of reason
and good faith" which he said could
finally dissipate clouds Of suspicion.
He apparently was referring to
charges Of Imperialism" hurled by
Communists against the European
Recovery Program.
Stresses European Accords.
"It Is certain" the President said,
that France, for whom no alliance,
no friendship is exclusive, is ne
glecting no opportunity for an ac-
cord for her own recovery and that
of Europe"
Mr.. Auriol was referring to the
possibility of two-way trade agree
ments between the l6 Marshall plan
nations and those in Eastern Europe.
which he said could help bring
Eastern states back into the Euro
pean community.
Europe, which ought to be aided,
must then first of all help herself
and unite herself, If she wishes to
recover and live, and If she does not
want American assistance to be q
gesture without future or humili-
ating charity" Mr.. Auriol said.
In another phase Of French eco
nomic troubles a highly-placed
government official said last night
that France will issue q new franc
within the next two weeks in an
effort to revive its foreign trade.
The plan was seen as part Of Pre-
mier Robert Schuman's campaign to
import as much food as possible in
an effort to break the black market
and force food prices down.
This will require large amount
Of foreign currency, which can be
obtained only by stimulating French
exports.
The Official said the French gov
ernment had received assurance
from Washington that the American
attitude toward the new franc was
more friendly" following the action
of the National Assembly last night
in approving a tax bill aimed at
mopping up excess purchasing
power.

Tent Colony Swept Away.
A dozen families were made

The Army Engineers Corps, which

stock from fields along the rivers.
At Portland, the Coast Guard

Greek Commanders
Advance on GuerriIIas
Near Albania Border
by Fhe As,eeie,sd Pres,

ATHENS, Jan. 7.-Greek gov
ernment com ando units
pushed westward from Konitsa
toward a battle with force Of
1900 to 1000 guerrillas roaming
the hills near the Albanian bor-
der, press dispatches said.
The advices said fighting in the
area of Konitsa, which the guer-
rillas besieged in an attempt TO
seize a capital for the newly pro-
claimed Communist state, was vir-
sually at an end.
National forces under Capt. Ga
lanis, veteran who helped break
the guerrilla siege ring around Ko-
nitsa last week, were seeking out
leftist units under Capt. Ypsilanti,
reported marauding in the Thes-
protia area of Northwestern Greece,
the dispatches said.
Attack on Train Thwarted.
Official sources said the guerrillas
had planned to dynamite a train
carrying Minister of War George
Stratos through Thrace but were
foiled. The informants said the
plan was revealed by a captured
guerrilla who told his captors mines
were laid on the tracks during a
diversionary raid. Seven mines were
found on the tracks, the informants
said.
Mr.. Stratos proceeded by motor
car to: his destination.
Markos Vifiades, who proclaimed
q Communist state December "a. is
reported to have set up a capital at
Lykorrakhi, II miles northeast OF
Konista.
High military circles said they be-
heye the guerrillas are prepared to
launch air attacks against govern
ment forces. 1t was learned that
the chief of staff of the Greek all
force recently had asked for Amer
lean antiaircraft guns, but was
turned down
The general staff has been in
formed that three landing strips
have been prepared in the Grammos
Mountains by guerrilla forces, the
military informants said.
Rebel Pilots Declared Trained.
These sources said the general
staff has known for some time that
rebel pilots are being trained in an
other Balkan state. There have been
persistent reports that foreign planes
have been dropping supplies and
ammunition to the guerrillas and of
unidentified planes flying over
Greece.
Military sources said the Army is
aware that Lykorrakhi, also known
as Loupsikon, where Vifiades is said
to have set up his capital. can be
reached only over tortuous mule
trails through the Grammos Noun
tains. 1t is 10 miles from the Al
banian border
The informants said the village,
which at last oficial report had but
300 inhabitants. recently was visited
by a large number Of guerrilla lead
ers, and that 1t has been heavily
fortified. They said extensive exca-
vations in solid rock have been COM
pleted there for use as air raid shell
ters. Air reconnaissance showed, the
tnformants said, a large number of
anti-aircraft guns in the vicinity.
