By Balkan Neighbors
BY the Associated Press

PARIS, Nov. 10.-The United
Nations Political Committee de-
manded by a big majority in a
vote today that Albania, Bull
garia an6 Yugoslavia stop aid
ing guerrillas fighting the Greek
government.
The 58-nation Political Commit
tee also called on the three Balkan
nations to settle their differences
with Greece.
BY a vote of 48 to 6, the commit
tee approved a detailed resolution
on the Greek issue submitted by
China, France, Britain and the
United States. Russia and her bloc
voted against the resolution. Repre-
sentatives of four nations were alb
sent or not voting. The committee
previously had approved sections of
the resolution, one paragraph at a
time.
U. s. Mission Called.
During today's debate on the
Greek question, Soviet Delegate
Alexandra Bogomolov said the
whole world knows that the United
States military mission is the real
boss in Greece"
He said passage of the resolution
indorses American interference in
the internal affairs of Greece.
The resolution would continue the
work of the U. N. Special Committee
on the Balkans and would author
lze UNSCOB to continue its oh
servation on Greece's northern bor-
ders.
UNSCOB would report on the re-
sponse of Albania, Bulgaria and
Yugoslavia to the demand that the
three countries cease furnishing aid
to Markos Vafiades' Communist
guerrillas. The guerrillas are in
revolt against the Greek govern
ment.
Bebler and Spaak Clash.
The resolution now goes to the
General Assembly, where a two
thirds majority vote is necessary
for adoption.
During the prevote debate Dele
gate Ales Bebler of Yugoslavia
clashed sharply with Committee
Chairman Paul-Henri Spaak of Bel
GUM. Mr.. Bebler started ,to say
he had private information that
France had arranged a meeting
among Greek, Albanian, Bulgarian
and Yugoslav representatives.
Mr.. Spaak ruled that the COM
mlttee could not discuss private
information.
Aftsr approving the four-power
proposal, the Political Committee
took up debate on a Russian reso-
luton. This resolution declares the
tense Balkan situation is result of
increased foreign interference in
the domestic affairs of Greece"

successors will be. But already Gov
ernment omcials are mentioning
several persons who they say would
do a good job.
One is Lawson A. Meyer. COM
missions executive director and
chief examiner, very able man.
Another is George D. Riley, Who
is now the staff director Of the Sem
ate Civil Service Committee, and a
former newspaperman.
Also mentioned is George M.
Moore. chief counsel of the House
Civil Service Committee. A former
employe of the commission, Mr..
Moore has assisted Chairman Rees
and the committe members on legis-
lation affecting Federal employees.
There is also talk that an Amer
ican Legion or Veterans of Foreign
Wars man will be appointed to one
of the three jobs because of the
preponderance of veterans in Fed
eral positions. Omar B. Ketchum of
the VFW has been mentioned in this
regard.
All this is speculation, however.
Whichever party wins the appoint
ments are expected to be governed
mainly by political considerations.
With one exception, this has always
been the case in the past. The only
Federal career employe ever ap-
pointed as a Civil Service Commits
sioner was George r. Whalen, who
served from 1919 to 1888.
ARTHUR S. FLEMING - The
resignation of Mr.. Flemming, effec-
tive October /, to become president
of Ohio Wesleyan University, is a
loss to Government employees as
well as to the entire country.
Not only was Mr.. Flemming
largely responsible for the many
beneficial changes in Government
employees welfare and working con-
ditions, he also played a great part
in improving the efficiency of the
Federal service for the benefit of all
citizens.
His contribution, along with Mr..
Mitchelrs, in recruiting civilian en-
ployes for the Governments war
effort. won praise from Republicans
and Democrats alike. The commits

in the war effort and Mr.. Flemming

Air Force Purchases
To Stress Strategic
Long Range Bombers
By John A. Giles

/ The emphasis will be on strategic
long-range bomberS in the Ali
Forces first plane contracts under
the Nations stepped-up rearma-
ment program.
The department was unable tc
divulge details of the procurement
program yesterday, following ap-
proval by Secretary of Defense For
restal of authorizations to place
orders totaling $l,345, ,l65, 900, but a
spokesman said that the approval
gave the air arm essentially what
was planned for new aircraft"
Actually the allotment was about
100000, 900 less than the sum the
Air Force had planned to spend for
new planes to start Immediately
building toward the 70 groups auth
orized. The cutback however, will
not be at the expense of combat
type aircraft, it was said.
| Navy Orders Authorized.
| Mr.. Forrestal also authorized the
Navy to place orders up to $685.
635, 600. Details of the Navy pro-
gram were not revealed. The
authorization total was about sl00,
600, 900 less than the Nays original
plan.
The defense chiefs office empha-
sized that President Truman and
the Budget Bureau again would
review the military air needs in
September and December and in
dicated that additional allotments
might be forthcoming then.
The authorization essentially
gives us, with the exception of al
most $200,000,000, the total sum we
had planned to spend on new air
craft at this time," an Air Force
spokesman said.
1t was indicated the Air Force
would hold back on orders for util-
ity-type planes in order to 60 ahead
with its STRAIGHTFORWARD construc-
ton. Included in this category will
be the huge B-50s, a type based on
the wartime B-29, but with much
longer range, greater speed and
bigger bomb load capacity than the
Superfort.
243 BOmbers Provided for.
| A total of 243 bombers was pro-
yided for in the Air Forces original
buying program but some of these
were light bombers IN addition, 900
planes other than bomber or fighter
types we're suggested and it is in
this category that the cutback is
expected to come.
The emphasis on long-range
bomber construction is predicted on
the basis of a broad strategic con-
cept-the readiness of the USAF
to launch retaliatory air strikes i'm
mediately if the Nation is attacked.
1t also was indicated that the
Air Force would proceed with vir-
tually its original buying program
for jet fighters. which are needed
critically to modernize the air arm.
The initial plan called for 1875 jet
fighters.
The biggest part of the Navy's
buying involves fighters-807 of
them were contemplated under the
new spending program. The Navy
also wants SIS new attack planes
of the bomber type.

from travelling on the same buses

each other at their jobs. South
African industries have doomed

a large influx of colored laborers into

DR.. Malan proposed that natives
be confined to reserves, like the
American Indian reservations. Ma

by them. Only natives with assured
employment would be allowed to
live in these sections, and any un-

policy was necessary on that ac-
count. The Nationalist leader con-
tended the intermingling of races

was not one of repression. He said

kov added
Efforts at Division Charged.
The meeting was the longest and
perhaps the most acrid in the history
of the Kommandatura. 1t caused
American officials to reiterate their
belief that the Allied Supervisory
Council for Berlin would soon cease
to function.
II don't think the Kommandatura
will last long now" said one Amer
lean official. There was an obvious
increased move by the Russians to-
day to close 1t down."
Gen. Kotikov preceded his an

Americans and British of trying to
divide Berlin" as the major occupa-

PRETORIA, Union of South
Africa, May 29-Feverish specula- =
ton on their future swept the peo-
pile of South Africa today in the
wake of the election upset of vet
eran Prime Minister Field Marshal
Jan Christian SHUTS.
The silence of both Marshal
Smuts and the victor, Daniel F.
Malan, Nationalist Party leader,
heightened the speculation.
DR.. Malan, ex-clergyman whose
slender majority of five in the As
Sembly makes control of the gov
eminent and Inauguration of some
of his policies difficult. discussed
his course with associates at Cape
town. He is not expected to come
here to assume the premiership
until early next week.
Marshal SmutS, who lost his own
Parliamentary seat in the surpris-
ing Nationalist victory Tuesday,
conferred with leaders of his
United Party Strong efforts were
being made to persuade him to stay
in politics as leader of the op-
position.
Early Election Call Doubted.
Early predictions that DR. Malan
would call for another general cleo
ton this year in the hope Of in
creasing his majority, were tenn
pered today with second thoughts.
Despite the seat distribution,
election results showed Marshal
.Smuts still has nearly CO. per cent
of the population behind him. This
fact counsels Wariness on the part
of the NationaliSts.
Then, too some Nationalists think
their majority of five is workable.
The chances of second election
may depend on Marshal SHUTS de-
cision whether to remain in politics
or not. If he surrenders opposition
leadership to his deputy, j. H. Hof-
meyer, the Nationalists may feel en-
couraged to fight again at the polls.
1t was against Mr.. Hofmeyer's
handling of the racial question that
the Malan party centered its vic
torious campaign attack.
May Review u. N. Relations.
The Rand Daily Mail said the
Nationalists may shortly take up the
question of South Africa's relations
with the United Nations. Some Ma
tionaliStS have taken strong stand
in favor of Incorporating Southwest
Africa, a mandate, as an integral
part of the union despite the U. N
refusal to sanction such step.
Dr.. Malan's lack of a substantial
ma ajority may make it out of the
question for him to consider imme-
diatelv taking the Union out of the
British commonwealth of nations
and forming a republic.
He may have to adopt a conciiia-
tory policy in an endeavor to win
over some of the English-speaking
portions of the population.
Afrikan-Speaking Nationalists are
most likely to push that part of their
program calling for strict social. cul-
tural and territorial segregation OF
the 100000 non-Europeans of the
population. Here also they will be
bitterly opposed. Chief stumbling
block to enactment of part of this
program Is the constitutional pro-
vision that representation in the
parliament can be altered only by a
two-thirds majority at a joint sit
ting OF both houses.
Strict Segregation Urged.
Dr.. Malan vigorously campaigned
for a segregation of colored persons
much more strict than that in the
Southern United States. He ad-
vocated laws which would prevent
