Foreign observers in Moscow
said Russia would take a grave
view of any Greek invasion of the
little country on her northwest
frontier. These sources said the
current situation contains diplo-
matte dynamite. They added that
any movement of Greek troops
across the Albanian border Woulc

The Moscow press carried stories
today stressing the friendship be-
tween Albania and Russia
Pravda displayed a headline which
read: Albanian Soviet friendship

Athens press dispatches today
reported the Greek decision had
caused disqufet in Washington
and London diplomatic quarters
Premier Alexander Diomedes. how
ever, was quoted as saying there
is no reason for disquiet as the
Greek stand is a warning. not a
threat, to Albania.
Mr.. Diomedes was quoted in the
newspaper Vradyni as insisting it
is Greece's right to invoke Article
81 of the U. N. Charter for self
defense if guerrilla units attack
from Albania. Article 81 sustains
the right of nation to take self
defense measures If an armed at
tack occurs against a U. N. men,

Mr.. Diomedes emphasized that
the position taken by the Athens
government is clear and not liable
to misinterpretation. He said
Greece has the right to defend
herself and stressed she would not
attack unless she herself were
attacked.
The U. N. Special Commission
on the Balkans reported this week
that during recent fighting in the
Greek civil war, Athens troops
violated the Albanian border in
acts Of "just1fiable self-defense.'
Greek troops Undoubtedly" vio-
lated the Albanian frontier, a COM
mission report said. It added that
the violations were s"considered as
acts of justif1abIe self-defense
against unprecedented provoca-
tionS from Albanian territory"
The report also confirmed a
Greek general staff claim that Al
banian soldiers entered and fought
on Greek soil during recent fight
ing in the Vitsi and Grammos
regions.
Albania is completely cut of
from the other Cominform nations
of Eastern Europe by Greece and
Yugoslavia. Unlike her Cominform
allies, Albania as yet has no mu-
tual-aid pact with Russia.

And Acheson in Talks
On Cold War Strategy
By Gornett D. Horner

French Foreign Minister Schu-
man joins Secretary of State
Acheson and British Foreign Min
ister Bevin in cold war strategy
talks here today.
New blows against communism
in Europe and the Far East were
forecast by some diplomatic au-
thorities as a result of the talks
described officially as aimed at as
suring complete understanding
among the Big Three Western
powers on common problems.
Mr.. Acheson and Mr.. Bevin
have gone over some Far Eastern
and European political problems
in two-way talks during the past
two days in advance of Mr.. Schu-
mans arrival. without announcing
any new decisions.
A wide range of subjects was
expected to be discussed on the
three-power level. including de-
velopment of the new Western
German state, negotiations with
Russia on an Austrian peace
treaty, exploitation of the split be-
tween Yugoslavia and Russia, and
the erection Of barriers against
the spread Of communism in the
Far East outside China.
Mr.. Schuman, who arrived here
last night, was to meet separately
today with Mr.. Acheson, French
Finance Minister Maurice Petsche,
ECA Administrator Paul Hoffman
and w. Averell Hartman. ECA
rowing ambassador. for a review of
economic problems.
The American officials were pre-
pared to reassure the French that
steps worked out in American
British Canadian talks here re-
Gently would not interfere with
Frances economic recovery or
general Western cooperation un-
der ECA.
Mr.. Schuman's meeting with
Mr.. Acheson and Mr.. Bevin was
to follow the economic talk. The
French Foreign Minister plans to
fly to Canada tomorrow for a
brief visit and return here in
time for the first meeting OF the
North Atlantic Treaty Council
Saturday morning.
On his arrival here last night,
Mr.. Schuman refused any COM
ment on the talks. He had said
earlier in New York that Com
munist military advances in the
Far East are very serious for
France and the rest Of the world"
making it very necessary that we
find a solution quickly"
Talks with others Of the North
Atlantic Treaty power Foreign
Ministers converging on Washing
ton fors organization Of the coun-
Gil Saturday made a crowded pro-
gram for Mr.. Acheson. He met
for two hours late yesterday with

eign Minister. A joint statement
said they discussed disposition Of
Italy's former colonies in Africa
among other things. This prob
lem is due to come up in the
United Nations General Assembly

been couched in general terms, re-
vealing little of what they actually

said this would discourage fellow
travellers and deprive the party OF
financial support from misguided
rich Americans"
Mr.. Kerley testified before a
Senate judiciary subcommittee
trying to determine whether the
immigration laws should be tight
ened for national security. Most
of the names he mentioned as
having been investigated by the
FBI while he was an agent from
1887 to October, 1945. have been
brought out within the last year
or two at hearings before the
House Committee on Un-Ameri-
can Activities.
Before Mr.. Kerley took the
stand, Howard Rushmore, former
Communist, informed the commit
tee that there had been a "natu-
raj misunderstanding" about his
testimony yesterday that the late
President Roosevelt and Earl
Browder, then head Of the Com
munist Party, had conferred al
the White House during the war
Mr.. Rushmore said he learned
this from various sources. but not
from Benjamin Gitlow. former
Communist Party secretary.
Yesterday the subcommittee
understood him to say he got the
information from Gitlow. Today
he explained that his reference
to Mr.. Gitlow dealt with informa-
ton about other Communist
activities during the war.

Mr.. Kerley listed Arthur Adams
Steve Nelson and Alexander
Stevens, alias j. Peters, as hav-
ing been among the most active
and influential Communist agents
in this country. He identified
Adams as having headed a spy
group that attempted to obtain
atomic bomb secrets. Adams
whose name often has beer
brought up in House committee
hearings. is believed to be ir

kept him under close surveillance
during the war and once pre-
vented him from boarding a ship
for Russia. Under the State De-
partment policy concerning arrests

added, Adams was never arrested

peared before the House commit
tee several times, but has refused
to testify. Mr.. Kerley declared
that Nelson "is the Cominterr
representative who was sent te

he could do the most damage in
event of a national emergency
Stevens, who also has been men
toned frequently in House COM
mittee testimony, was described by
MIR. Kerley as q leading Soviet

try in 1922 and left, presumably
for Russia, few months ago.

These improvement measures,
Webster says, usually fall into
two classifications: First, the
practices for which farmers will
need some outside help to get the
job done, such as technical assist

and use Of heavy machinery; and
second, those things farmers can
do without outside help such as

.Lund Alone Is
High in State
Saws Webster

Land is about the only thing
around the farm In Washington
that's still selling for premium
prices. ..: ~.-..
That's the keynote of the cur
rent farm outlook, Frank Web
ster county extension agent, says
as summarized in the January
% issue of extension circular No.
l29, Keeping Up on the Farm
Outlook"
In the current issue, now being
distributed to Benton county
farmers, Karl Hobson, associate
extension economist in prices,
says that land prices in the state
are at an au-tine high but that
the prices of hogs, cattle, butter,
eggs, dry beans, peas, wheat and
otner commodities are down.
Washington land prices, now
Is percent higher than the former
all-time peak in 1920, may go
on up a little more. Land prices
usually move in the same direc-
ton that farm income moved the
year before. Since farm income
probably reached its all-time high
last year, land prices can be eX-
pected to reach a ceiling this
year, and like farm income, start
downward. .4.-.-, ~, ..4
As for the price outlook, Hob
SON thinks it especially bleak for
dry peas and beans. Outlets for
these crops are shrinking, especi-
ally the foreign market, he says.
The wheat picture indicates a
carry-over of 400-million bushels
on July l, 1850 largest on re-
cord except for 1941 and 1912
when the carry-over exceeded
600 million bushels. Foreign-aid
exports are expected to decline
but support prices will be a
straight 80 percent of parity for
the 1919 crop, the economist said.
Benton county farm families
can keep posted on monthly
changes in the agricultural out
look by reading the extension cir
cular, Keeping Up on the Farm
Outlook" Webster said. Families
desiring to be put on the mailing
list can receive free copies by
sending their request to the coun-
ty extension office.
