Tito Sees Trieste Move
As Threat 10 Accord
BY the Asseeias.d Press

PARIS, Oct. %. - President
Tito was quoted yesterday as
saying that if the American
British decision on Trieste Is
carried out the indignant re-
action of the Yugoslav people
would be such that our efforts
to cooperate with the Western
powers on problems of the great
est importance would be impos-
sible."
Marshal Tito was interviewed
by a French News Agency corre-
spondent at his country home
125 miles from Belgrade.
The correspondent quoted the
Yugoslav leader as saying that
if the British and Americans
turn over Zone A of Trieste to
Italian administration "our poll
icy, based until now on conf
dence in the Western allies as
sincere friends without any res
ervationS, would have to be re-
examined"
Marshal Tito was said to have
renewed his suggestion that both
Zone A and Zone B of the
Trieste territory be made sepa-
rate autonomous units with Zone
A, which includes the city of
Trieste, under Italian sovereign
ty and Zone B, now occupied by
Yugoslav troops, under Yugoslav
sovereignty for a period of 10
years.

NEW YORK, Oct. 23.-Win-
ston Churchill says a troop with
drawal from Italy ordered by
President Roosevelt gave the al
lied powers little chance to estab-
lish their influence in the
Balkans.
Mr.. Churchill, wartime and
present British Prime Minister,
is publishing the sixth and final
volume of his Nobel Prize win
ming memoirs in Life Magazine.
The volume traces World War
II from Operation Overload, the
allied landing in Normandy on
June 6, 1914, to the final sur
render of the enemy IA months
later.
In the first installment, ap-
pearing yesterday, Mr.. Churchill
said he favored maintaining
heavy forces in Italy for a drive
northward toward Vienna and
the Balkans.
Withdrew 100000 Troops.
But President Roosevelt dis
agreed, Mr.. Churchill said, and
Withdrew almost 100000 troops
from Italy for a diversionary
landing in Southern France.
AS a result, Mr.. Churchill
writes, Italy was not to be
wholly free until May 2, 1945;
the right-handed drive to Vienna
was denied to us: and, except in
Greece, our military power to in
f1uence the liberation of South
eastern Europe was gone"
Mr.. Churchill said he ap-

pealed to Mr.. Roosevelt to con-
tinue large-scale operations in
Northern Italy and into the
Balkans but the President re-
piled:
81 cannot agree to the employ
ment of United States troops
into the Balkans, nor can I see
the French agreeing to such use
Of French troops. For purely
political considerations over here,
I should never survive even a
slight setback in Overload if it
were known that fairly large
forces had been diverted to the
Balkans"
Attack in France Ordered.
An attack on the south of
France was ordered for August
Is, and the Fifth Army in Italy
had been reduced from nearly
100000 men to $4,000.
Mr.. Churchill said that when
he visited the Italian front on
August 10 he was told by Gen.
Mark Clark that the troop with
drawal had robbed" his army OF
a great opportunity.
Mr.. Churchill quoted Gen
Clark as saying: "a very little
more (troops), half what hac
been taken from us, and we
could have broken into the val
ley of the Pc. with all the gleam-
ing possibilities and prizes which
lay open toward Vienna"

Democrats 10 Study
'ReasonabIeness Of
$4,000 D. c. Quota
By . s.off corrs.pondsnt q The s,or


PHILADELPHIA, Dec. H.
The Democratic National COM
mittee took time out from ma
tional affairs today to debate
the reasonableness Of q $40. 900
quota assigned to the Democrats
Of the District of Columbia as
their part Of the committees an
nual budget.
A bulletin board displayed in
the committee room showed the
District has raised only $6,220,
or 1876 per cent.
Melvin D. Hildreth, national
committeeman for the District,
said that, although Washington
has been given one Of the larg-
est quotas in the country, the
local organization is trying des-
perately to meet 1t.
He asked Chairman Stephen
Mitchell if there is any way Of
giving the District credit for the
large amounts it has contributed,
aside from its quota, by partici-
pating in the periodical $100-a-
plate dinners. He said the Dis
trict was represented at the New
York dinner to the extent Of
$40, 900, and sent a special three
car train Of contributors to the
Philadelphia dinner tonight.
Based on Performance.
Mrs. Margaret M. O'Riordan
Of Massachusetts, interrupted to
ask Mr.. Mitchell how the ma
tional committee arrived at so
large a quota "for the little Dis
trict of Columbia" Mr.. Mitchell
said it was based on past per-
formance and ability.
The national chairman also
said nothing would be gained by
crediting dinner contributions to
the quotas. because the fund
raising dinners are needed in
addition to the budget.
Mayor David Lawrence of
Pittsburgh suggested that many
Democrats from other parts of
the country, including lawyers.
have gone into business in
Washington and that some of
them have been honored by the
party in the past.
Will Discuss Problem.
The discussion ended with
Mr.. Mitchell announcing he
would discuss the problem later
with the District and several
States that have complained Of
their quotas.
The only business the COM
mittee transacted was to elect
Stanley woodward Of Washing
ton as national treasurer. The Sc
lection of Mr.. Woodward, a
former Ambassador to Canada,
was announced several days ago.
Mr.. Mitchell reminded the
committee of his intention to re-
sign at the end of next year.
and urged members to be think
ing of a successor.

He said the 1852 election was
a victory for Eisenhower. but
not for the Republican Party.
He pointed out that the general
is the only presidential candidate
in many years who failed to
carry a substantial majority of
Congress to victory with him.
Mr.. Barkley said he is not one
who claims Democrats have not
made mistakes. He frankly re-
counted what he called errors in
judgment by various Presidents,
Democrats as well as Republi-
cans. But he said these errors
in Judgment do not detract from
their records and should be con-
sidered in the light of condi-
tions at the time they occurred.
The banquet guests also heard
brief talks by Robert r. Wag-
ner, jr.. the newly elected Mayor
OF New York, and Governor

them as:

matters:
The fact that the United

Racial tensions which exist in

rather than unilaterally.
The 1852 Democratic presi-

pectedly this afternoon at a
panel discussion of U. N. prob
lens.
It was one Of a series of panel
meetings on specific issues. ar
ranged for delegates to a one
day regional gathering of At
lantic Coast Democrats. II
Chester Bowles said the pres
ent administration has taken
the position that until the Rus
slams are prepared to. disarm,
the Uhited States will not put
any more money into world de-
velopnent through. the U. N.
Since poverty is. an ally OF
communism. that only gives
them another reason for not

velt to comment.
Just at that moment, Mr.
Stevenson entered the hall un-
expectedly, and when the ap-
plause had subsidized, Mrs. Edith
Sampson, the moderator, sug-
gested that the former Illinois
Governor answer Mr.. Bowles
question.
II don't think it is so much
a question as a statement of an

replied.
Declaring that defense against
the spread of communism is a
problem of developing the. stand

questioned whether "the United
States can win the hearts of un-
committed people by military
methods when they are so con-
cerned with their economic well
being"

cratic, is going to have to face

States "conspired" with the
South Korean government for
the release of $1,000 anti-Rred
prisoners last June.
Asked by neWsmen for some
idea of his time limit for a Red
retraction and request for re-
sumption of the meetings, Mr..
Dean said he would not pin
himself down to a date.
Then he was asked what
would happen if the Communists
made no move whatever to with
draw the charge Of perfidy.
Lets Them Consult Masters.
Mr.. Dean thereupon estimated
that "the end of the week" was
long enough to wait for the Red
retraction. Yesterday he indi-
Gated a reasonable time" to
wait would possibly be only a
few days-juSt time enough for
the Reds to consult Peiping and
Moscow.
A full retraction was consid-
cred extremely unlikely by Allied
officials and observers.
At his press conference Mr..
Dean said that what the Reds
must withdraw is the charge of
perf1dy against the United States
government"
That apparently would permit
the Reds to withdraw the mar
rowed down charge of "perfidy''
rather than retract their entire
long and angry statement yes

face saving opening for the
Communists on the balance of

Mrs. Roosevelt said the great

from U. NJ. members in the

out that the U. N. was only able
to call for voluntary co-opera-
ton, and on that basis she
thought the results were good.

Eisenhower Reviews
Military Spending;
Decision Is Awaited
By John A. Giles

President Eisenhower yester-
day reviewed a proposed military
spending program for the fiscal
year beginning next July /, but
neither the White House nor the
Pentagon would say what deci-
sionS were made.
The top Defense Department
officials who presented the plan
to the Chief Executive returned
Immediately afterward to the
Pentagon for conferences that
continued until after dark. More
meetings were scheduled today.
One top official cautioned
reporter not to interpret the con-
tinuing meetings as meaning
that Gen. Eisenhower had re-
jected the program.
Rather, he said, Gen Eisen-
hover was furnished several "al-
ternatives" to choose from-with
the costs thereof.
Nov these must be fitted to-
gether for further review" he
said.
ManpOwer is Key Issue.
Asked if any further White
House meetings on the subject
were scheduled, Press Secretary
James c. Hagerty replied:
well, there is the cabinet
meeting on Tuesday,"
He added that Republican con-
gressional leaders will be briefed
on the program at a three day
White House conference begin
ming Thursday.
Presumably, the alternatives"
dealt with manpower, for it is in
this field that Defense Secretary
Wilson has decided that real
savings can be made despite
strong protests by the Army.
Navy and Marine Corps. The
Air Force would be granted q
slight increase.
The biggest controversy has
been over the size of the Army.
Combat Units Not Affected.
At one point Mr.. Wilson told
the Army generals to see what
would be the effect of cut from
the present is million officers
and enlisted personnel to 1,281,-
900. He insisted the reduction
must come from supporting
troops and that combat units
were not to be affected. But the
generals protested that they
would either have to skeletonize
divisions or cut down on the
total number. There are 1880
officers and men in each Of the
20 divisions.
Later Mr.. Wilson told the
Army to see how they would fare
with an average of 1889 900
officers and enlisted personnel
during the year. The last figure
given the service was in the
neighborhood of 1,270,000.
The Navy apparently is recon-
ciled to its own cuts, which will
call for reductions of 6 per cent
or more in ships complementSs
and larger cuts in supply
branches.
Mr.. Wilson left for Paris FRI
day to attend NATO meetings
and Deputy Secretary Roger M
Kyes presented the program to
the President.
