percent on those proposals to
limit worldwide armament. Our
thief delegate to the United Na
tions—Warren Austin—last night
told the assembly that' the United'
States is ready to cooperate in

armament. 'Not only that—Austin

effective safeguards, such as ,
in
spections; to,: Pretect the disarm ,
ing countries from violations and
evasion _in other nations.

spoke, the :Yugoslav foreign min
ister,. Stanoje Simich, slammed

of the most aggressive speeches
yet delivered 'at the UN assem
bly. He accused America and
Britain of violating the UN char
ter •by maintaining troops in
friendly countries and voting
against Albania for UN member,
ship. He charged that certain cir
cles are' trying to use the atom
bomb to intimidate . the world.
And he accused America of re
fusing' to turn over to Yugosla
via thousands of so-called Quis
lings in displaced persons camps.
