City Of New York in honor Of dele
gates here for the fourth General
Assembly Of the U. N.

to destruction by establishing con-
fldence among the nations Of the
world"
I'VE shall take care now that no
nations shall be under any delu-
sions that they can get so ad-

NEW YORK. Sept. 21.-The
United Nations Special Commis-
sion on the Balkins. said today the
Greek Army has eliminated Or
ganized guerrilla resistance along
the northern borders of Greece.
This does not mean the Civil
War is ended. Communicated
guerrilla bands still rove parts of
the interior. The Greek Army's
recently concluded Gramm o s
mountain offensive drove strong
rebel detachments across the AL
banian frontier. as other offen-
sives have done before. Each time
in the past. the guerrillas have
reorganized and returned.
Albanian Threat Reported.
The Greek general staff an
nounced in Athens last night that
13 Albanian soldiers who surren-
dered to Greek frontier guards re-
ported that guerrilla leaders hoped
to re-enter Greece soon with
Russian aid"
Greece holds a temporary ad-
vantage at the frontier.
The commission warned, how=
ever, of increased gravity Of the
threat to peace" If Greece's Com
munist northern neighbors, Al
bania and Bulgaria, continue aid
ing guerrillas in defiance of U. N.
Assembly resolutions.
The commission concentrated
the weight of its criticism on Al
bania, asking the General As
sembly to find Albania primarily
responsible for the threat to peace
In the Balkans
Threat Made by Greece.
Greece last week threatened to
send her troops across the Alban-
ian border unless that Soviet sat-
elite stopped helping guerrillas.
The Greek government said then
It would notify the U. N. that it felt
entitled to do so under Article 81
OF the United Nations Charter.
which outlines measures a nation
may take in elf-defense.
The Greek action drew an ad-
verse reaction In Moscow, which
although it has no military alli-
ance with Albania, regards itself
as protector of the satellite. The
Soviet press warned that an in
vasion Of Albania by Greece would
have serious repercussions.
Secretary of State Acheson and
British Foreign Secretary Bevin
also poured cold water on the
Greek plan by announcing they
could not go along with it.
Acts Cited in Report.

statements were made in q supple
mentary report to the fourth ses-
sion Of the General Assembly.

Ia resistance.

possible dream-the Fredericks.
burg Agricultural Fair.
/. A mile-and-a-half parade,
formed in honor Of "Fredericks-
burg Day" at the fair. was to start
at 1:30 pm. to wind its way
through town and out to the
Shannon Airport fairgrounds, a
mile away.
Bunting and banners hung
around the town hailed its return

cessful.
Thousands Visit Area.

hibits of farm industry. In addi-
ton. there are many commercial
displays Of the latest in farm
equipment, and an 800-foot mid
way with Is feature shows, II
thrill" rides and many games.
Officials hope to draw $4,000

The suggestion that the Fred.
ericksburg fair be re-established-
the last one was held in 1881
was made last January. Robert
Leitch. then president of the
Junior Chamber of Commerce, and
several others discussed the mat
ter, then called a meeting of those
interested in backing the project.
Because the sponsors wanted to
make the fair open to every one.
they decided not to charge a fee
for any OF the farm industry ex-
hibitS.
They made provision so that
every All Club or Future Farm
ers OF America member who
placed an entry in the fair would
receive a prize.
