Econonic Rstorm Progran
US. Aid Makes Greek Defense System Possible

tor, is pushing through q kfll-or-
cure economic and governmental
reform program that heartens
some and frightens others.
No politician himself, nor econ
omist, he is guided by why,
brainy little Greek full of expan-
sive ideas. Spires Markezinis, in
his early 4Os, is q bright Athenian
lawyer who tried for years to hurl
his IS pounds high into government
positions. Then last November the
Greeks voted Papagos into power
with legislative majority Of 2i6
to 81.
Markezinis was appointed minis
ter for coordination, economics
and foreign aid, the first Cabinet
job he ever had. 1t allows him to
put his thumb into almost every
one Of the II minis.ries In the
Cabinet.
It Is now eight months since
the new government was elected,
but in that brief period it has:
l. Formed q defense alliance
with Turkey and Yugoslavia that
multiplies their military potential.
2. Devalued the currency TO re-
capture important foreign mar
kets, wipe out a black market,
and give time for internal econom-
ic reforms.
8. Merged two major banks with
hope-n yet realized of low
ering gcandalous interest rates and
purging greasy-fat payrolls.
4. Started painfully slow re-
form and purging of the civil
service ranks.
5. Started, perhaps q bit wide
eyed, I reform Of government
which included 4 caution TO mem-
bers of Parliament to stop going
into the ministries to deal for IA
vors for their friends.
American officials here indicated
they expected Greece would have
to trim its military program some
what.
OF its total annual expenditure,
Greece pOurs well over 4 third
into It's defense forces. The figures
for this year are:
Total budget ......S2l5,s OOO, 900
Military portion ...,........$o5 ,sQO. 900
A part of the budget--the exact
amount Is hard to assess-is made
up of American contributions. So,
as these are cut, the total bulge,

Russia Reverses And Offers to Meet With Big Three

WASHINGTON, R-Russia has offered to meet with the Western Big Three to discuss critical Eu- ropean problems, abandoning it's earlier insistence that Red China first be accepted by the West in the councils of great powers.
 A digest of the note Russia sent Thursday to the Western powers indicated that if Big Four meeting, of foreign minis ters, where held the Soviets would immediately press for broader, follow-up, meeting including Communist China.
 Informed observers here said the result might be that instead of further potponing four power meeting by dispatching re- peated vetoes on the Chinese question, the Russians conceiv ably might allow the meeting to assemble, and then stall discus sion of European problems while the Chinese issue was worked over again.
 In any case, the Russian note was under intensive study by Sec retary of State Dulles and his principal policy advisers to deter mine whether it is serious step toward easing world tensions or a clever stab at the unity of the west.
 There was immediate specula- tion that the Russians might be really trying to maneuver the downfall of French Premier Lan- iel's government and cripple the Western Big Three conference opening in Bermuda in week.
 The timing of the Russian an nouncement, and the things it didn't say, fed this speculation.

Big Pusan Fire Makes 3OO,OOO Persons Homeless

PUSAN, Korea, R-A great fire buried through the heart of teeming Pusan Saturday, driving possibly 3OO,OOO persons from their homes, and destroying the headquarters of the U.S Army Command which operates this vital port.
 Hours after the fire broke out in a squatter section of this city damned with war refugees, thou sans of US. and South Korean soldiers still had not brought the raging flames under control. The flames had swept more than a mile through the business section.
 The flames ate swiftly through the tinder-like shacks and novels, gulping whole blocks at a time. Then the fire spread to the busi- ness section.
 Thousands of Koreans with their pitifully meager possessions streamed across bridges to Yong do island, near by. A US. Army officer said that from 2,O0O to 5000 buildings - shacks, houses, shops, stores, small offices and some larger buildings-had gone up in flames.
 By 3 am. the fire was consum- ing the three-story building hous- ing the headquarters for the US. Arny's Korean base section.
 There were no immediate re- ports of deaths although it was almost certain some residents must have died in the flames that shot red into the dark sky.
 The fire burst out 8 o'clock Fri day night in a shantytown area called 'The Hilltop"

 Another motion in Federal Dis trict Judge Harry Pratt's court to transfer the trial to a court in another district IL was put over until Friday for further argument.
 No trial date has been set. Officials have said they are look ing for a third person in the case.
 Both Mrs. Wells land Warren have maintained they are inno- cent of the killing. Warren has said, however, that he had a very close acquaintance with Mrs. Wells prior to the shooting in the Wells apartment. She said later that the nature of the association did not warrant any ''i1nplica- tions."

Foolproof Defense Of North America Is Impractical

OTTAWA, R-Canadian de fense minister Brooke C1axton says Canada and the United States can't afford a foolproof air defense system, even if one could be worked out.
 He told the House of Com mons Thursday in a general re- view of Canada's defense mea- .sures that Russia some day may be in a position to deliver "so devastating" an attack that North American military strength, actual and potential, would be ser iously crippled.
 Claxton's speech recalled Presi- dent Eisenhower's declaration to parliament Nov. IA that Canada and the United States "can and will" devise ways to protect the continent against surprise air at tack.
 Claxton told Commons no means had yet been found to guarantee that every attacking aircraft would be downed short of its target. And even if such could be found, he added, the combined resources of Canada and the southern neighbor would mt be able to pay for it.
 Claxton said Canada and the US. are in general agreement" about what should be done to protect the continent and are working together. Their efforts are spurred by the knowledge that Russia possesses nuclear weapons, he continued.

Laniel's Government
 Gets Vote of Confidence In French Nat. Assemblye

PARIS, LR = Unofficial tallies indicated today that Premier Jo- seph Laniel had received a vote of confidence in the National As senbly. The unofficial figures gave Laniel a majority of about IF votes.
 The vote came at the end of a tension charged day in the Nation al Assembly debate on French for eign policy. The vote reflected re- luctance to throw Laniel out of office on the eve of the Bermuda conference of the Big Three to discuss world tensions.
 Early in the day it seemed that Laniel would have difficulty in getting approval from the depu- ties of his policy on European unity.
