Count Bema dotte is the United Nations medi ator who brought about the current four-week armistice. The suggestions, which the medi ator called a “basis for further dis cussion,” were not published. (Premier Jamil Mardambey of Syria said in Damascus the pro posals will “in no way modify our attitude of rejecting partition and a Jewish state in Palestine.” Jews are just as insistent that the new state of Israel must continue to exist.) »i»ds ana jews Leaving. Jewish experts flew from this Greek island to Tel Aviv this morn ing with the proposal. Arab experts are flying to Cairo late today. Paul Mohn of Sweden and Constantine Stavropoulos of Greece will accom pany the Arabs and explain the Count's peace plan to an Arab League subcommittee meeting in Cairo tomorrow night.

Declared Unworthy. “All these facts prove that the leading persons in the Communist Party of Yugoslavia took a stand point unworthy of Communists, on the lie of which they began to iden tify the foreign policy of Soviet Rusisa with that of the imperialistic powers and they treat Soviet Rus sia in the same manner as they I treat the bourgeois states. “As a result of this anti-Soviet ' policy in the central committee of the Communist Party of Yugoslavia, slanderous propaganda borrowed from the arsenal of counter-revolu tionary Trotzkvism, about the -de generatino’ of the all-Communist union of Bolsheviks and about the degeneration’ of the Union of So cialist Soviet Republics was con ducted. The Cominform condemns these anti-Soviet conceptions of leading members of the Yugoslav Communist Party as incompatible Iwith Marxism-Leninism and as I suitable for nationalists only.” Weather 'Continued From First Page.' no count of motorists, Sunday traffic was heavy. The grassy flanks of the drive through Rock Creek Park were mostly packed with sun bathers, many of whom brought picnic lunches. The bulge in Taft bridge was caused, according to District en gineers, by melted tar which leaked j out of an expansion joint and tipped a block beneath the asphalt surface. Following an inspection, it was said that no structural damage was caused and that the bulge would be repaired by tomorrow night.

Democrats (Continued From First Page.i dential years have always led up a blind alley in both parties. No Law to Govern Voting. The primary is strictly a party affair in the District for, unlike the States, there is no law to gov ern or regulate the voting. In both the Republican primary last month and the present Democratic one, dissident groups challenging the regular organizations have taken court action. In the Democratic case the court fight was by a group backed by the liberal. anti-Communist Americans for Democratic Action. The group finally wound up with four of its members among the 12 names on the list of candidates for convention j delegate. Each will have a half vote. Six of the 22 candidates for the Central Committee also are backed by ADA and again there is no contest. Both the ADA and the Veterans for Eisenhower are asking voters j today to bind the delegates to the presidential preference choice until a majority of the 12 local delegates decide to switch. This presumably would cover at least the first con vention ballot. Mr. Hildreth is a Truman supporter, w'hile the ADA group would prefer either Gen. Eisenhower or Supreme Court Jus tice Douglas. ECA i Continued Prom First Page/i meeting most of the administration requests during the final hours of the congressional adjournment rush. Truman Statement. Mr. Truman's statement on sign ing the bill follows: "I have signed today H. R. 6801. the Foreign Aid Appropriation Act,! 1949, providing funds for-the first; year of the European Recovery Pro gram, for aid to Greece, Turkey and China, for meeting our participation; in the International Children's! Fund and the International Refugee! Organization. The total appropria tion for these purposes included in [ the act is $6,030,710,228. "By far the largest item in this | act is the $4,000,000,000 appropria tion for economic co-operation with! Europe. I know that the American: people share the deep sense of satis faction which I feel in taking this1 final step to make the European! Recovery Program effective. It fur-; nishes concrete evidence and assur ance to the free peoples of the world that we stand ready to work side by; side with them to preserve free insti tutions in stability and peace Represents Combined Judgment. “In June of last year the United States indicated its readiness to! work with the countries of Europe in developing a program of joint action to achieve economic recovery. Representatives of 16 European countries drew up a program in re sponse to this suggestion and sub mitted it to this Government in September. After careful study I submitted to the Congress on De cember 19 recommendations for leg islation to make the European Re covery Program a reality. Following full consideration by the Congress, this legislation was enacted on April 3. •‘Then began the last step in the legislative process—the enactment of the necessary appropriations to make the law effective. Again the program was carefully scrutinized and its various elements weighed and tested. As finally enacted this appropriation is substantially in ac cord with the program presented to the Congress six months ago. It represents the combined judgment and will of the Executive and the Congress. "Spirit of Co-operation.” “It w^as evolved in the spirit of co-operation and not of partisan conflict. It demonstrates the united determination of our people to make good our pledge of co-operation to those who, like ourselves, are striv ing to achieve during peace and prosperity among all nations.” Briefly, the law provides: 1. $4,000,000,000 for the Economic Co-operation Administration (ECA) to help 16 Western European na tions. The money is in addition to $1,055,000,000 already given ECA by Congress. The program is spread over 15 months, but the President may authorize the money to be spent in 12 months if he believes it is necessary. 2. $400,000,000 for aid to- China. ECA will direct the recovery part of the China program. But $125, 000,000 of the funds will be spent for military purposes by the Chinese government. 3. $1,300,000,000 for government and relief in occupied areas. Japan, Korea and the Ryukyus Islands will receive the benefits of about $125,000,000 of this amount, to be spent through the Army. 4. $225,000,000 for aid to Greece and Turkey. 5. $35,000,000 to the International Children's Emergency Feeding Pro gram in Europe. _6. $70,710,228 to the International Refugee Organization.

Boston College Records 'Destructive' Quake WESTON, Mass.. June 28 (ff).— An earthquake of 'destructive” vio lence was recorded at Boston Col lege's Weston seismograph station at 3:27:05 a.m. (EDT) today. The disturbance was placed at 7,125 miles distant, observers said, and might be an Japan. Two other quakes were recorded yesterday, one at 8:54:13 pm. (EDT) and the other at 5:56:09 (EDT), described as of moderate intensity and estimated to be in Central Mexico. Sharp Earthquake Rocks Honolulu, Without Damage HONOLULU, June 28 i/P).—A; sharp earthquake rocked Honolulu at 1:38 a m. today (7:38 a.m. EDTi. No damage was reported immedi- j ately. The fire department re sponded to an alarm. Severe temblors lasting several ■ seconds routed Honoluluans out of bed and sent them scurrying^ into the streets. Telephone lines to the police, newspapers and news service offices were jammed with calls. One man asked where the flash came from that accompanied the quake. There was no confirmation of any such flash. Others asked the cause of the 'explosion.'' The volcano Mauna Loa on Hawaii Island is several years overdue on its cycle of eruptions. German (Continued Prom First Page.) i cans enforced food conservation in Army and civilian mess halls, ra- j lioned for parcels, banned parties and receptions, forbade motor boat ing and held each car owner to five, gallons of gasoline a week. Those for Britons likewise imposed economy in food and power. Parties were forbidden and afternoon1 movies stopped. British Army and control - commission clubs were ordered to close early at 10:30 p.m. The Russian fired the German chief of electric utilities in their, sector. They accused him of sabotaging their orders to shut off electricity to Western Berlin. This shutoff still cramped service in the western sectors, but the1 American commandant, Col. Frank L. Hpwley. said, "we are getting along." Western Berlin supplies about half its own power. Trade union leaders in the Soviet, sector voted against trying for a; Berlin general strike for fear it' would not be fully effective. United! States authorities said the Com- j munists were behind the move and! they believed anti-Communist union leaders of Western Berlin could stopj a city-wide strike. United States military police said the Russians freed Sergt. Charles C.j Staggers, American courier, yeeter day after detaining him 24 hours for speeding. The courier was picked up Saturday driving a jeep in the Russian sector. American police said they had re ceived orders to “lay off or at least ease up” on arresting Soviet speed ers. Troop commanders woulc} say nothing about laying off but conced ed some easing up was planned. This all followed the arrest of Marshal Vassily D. Sokolovsky, So viet military governor, for speeding Saturday in the American sector. Once he was recognized, he was freed with an apology. Rail Blockade Remains. Western-licensed Berlin news papers played up Winston Church ill's demand that the western pow ers stand fast in Berlin. The Soviet-licensed Berliner Zeitung said editorially, “the west ern powers must now either declare themselves ready to conclude a peace treaty for all Germany on a four-power basis or they must leave Berlin." . The paper said last week's War saw communique of eight East European foreign ministers "has given them another chance” to prove they want to unify Germany. Reports late last week that the Russians would lift the railroad blockade today were not borne out. The reports were not carried by the Associated Press. The United States rail transporta tion officer at Helmstedt, just west of the Russian zone, said there had been no movement across the zonal boundary. British and American transport officials in Berlin reported no change in the blockade. Coal Pinch Felt. Because the Soviet measures have cut off all coal supplies from the British-occupied Ruhr? they were beginning to have their effect on the Soviet zone. Press reports from Schwerin said the economics minister of Meck lenburg Province told the legisla ture the coal shortage had ham pered the gas supply. Only 19 of the province’s 42 gas works now are operating, these re ports said, and eight more will have to shut down in July unless they get coal from other sources than the Ruhr, which normally supplies them. Gas service already has been cur tailed in a number of districts of the Soviet zone because of the coal shortage. Ploeser Denies Draff Act Plan to Curb Steel Firms The Government’s steel allocation authority in the new Draft Act is only to help small business get a share of defense contracts and is not an opening wedge to “return our economy to across-the-board con trol” of the industry. Representative Ploeser, Republican, of Missouri said today. The congressman, as chairman of the House Small Business Commit tee, sponsored the allocation amend ment which was written into the Draft Act last week. He made the clarifying statement today in a letter to Defense Secretary For restal. There has been criticism of the act, chiefly among industry leaders and, steel consumers, that the alloca tion authority given the Government would bring back wartime controls. Firemen Seek fo Cut Gap In Blazing 2-Mile Bridge By the Associated Press HENDERSON POINT, Miss.. June 28.—Fire fighters attempted to rip a firebreak in the Bay, St. Louis Bridge early today after an uncon trolled blaze burned one-fourth of the two-mile-long span. Preparations were made to dyna mite the structure to check the flames from spreading, if other methods failed. The fire, of undetermined origin, broke out about 6:30 p.m. last night on the structure, which is located on Highway 90, the main route of Mississippi Gulf Coast travel. The bridge links Bay St. Louis with Henderson Point. Shortly after the blaze was dis covered, the drawbridge—1*4 miles from the Bay St. Louis side—was raised. A special fire brigade kept that portion of the span wetted down The burning Henderson Point portion of the structure, some of a mile long, was fanned by a light but steady southerly to south westerly wind. Motorists westbound for Bay St. Louis, New ' Orleans or westward points were forced to make a 30 to 40 mile detour around the bay. Wallace Party to Hold D. C.

Greece Spurns Offer To Restore Diplomatic Ties, Bulgars Charge By the Associated Press The Bulgarian government today accused Greece of rebuff ing its offer to talk over a re newal of diplomatic relations which were severed seven years ago. Dr. Nissim Mevorah. Bulgarian Minister to the United States, for mally notified the United Nations that his proposed negotiations here with the Greek Ambassador had collapsed and that further talks would be useless. The two Balkan nations have had no diplomatic relations since April. 1941, when German troops invaded Greece from Bulgaria. * Letter Sent to Lie. In a letter to U. N. Secretary General Trygve Lie, the Bulgarian diplomat said the talks ended after the first meeting June 16 when Greek Ambassador Vassili Den dramis refused to discuss basic dif ferences between the two countries before agreeing to restoration of diplomatic relations. The Bulgarian government wanted to talk over such things as ! its desire for a Greek pledge to re spect the present frontiers of Bul garia. The Greek envoy was rep resented as taking the position that the Washington talks should be restricted to a discussion of the question of diplomatic relations. In his letter to the United Nations, I Dr. Mevorah said: j ‘‘The Greek government may or may not accept our views, but I feel that it should not reject a proposal to discuss them. By this refusal the Greek government clearly de clines our offer to negotiate, which 'indicates that the good will of the Bulgarian government is not recip rocated.’’ No Surprise to U. S. The Bulgarian letter, disclosed in an interview, came as no surprise to ! the State Department, which has regarded the Bulgarian offer more as a Russian-inspired propaganda move than a sincere effort to reach an understanding with Greece. Elaborating on his letter, the Bul garian minister deplored what he called a lack of understanding of his country by Americans. He blamed this in part on newspapers in the United States which he said present only the “bad side" of Bul garia. ‘“Our country is generally refer red to as a ‘Russian satellite’," he said, "or 'a country behind the iron curtain.’ The press ?ives the Ameri can people, who are basically demo cratic, no chance to learn of the constructive side of our country." Mexican Border Bridge Holds Against Rio Grande By th« Associated Press ZAPATA, Tex.. June 28.—The Rio Grande, on an out-of-character spree, surged through its lower val ley’s rich citrus region today in a rush to dump its flood crest Into the Gulf of Mexico. The angry river, which usually trickles idly well within its banks, rolled a 45-foot crest past here yes terday but failed to tear away the little suspension bridge that links Zapata with Mexico. Harvey Cunningham, customs in spector, said the bridge would be reopened for traffic today. The bridge was closed early yesterday. The mouth of the river, at Brownsville, is about 150 miles from here. Along this stretch the« lower Rio Grande Valley is thick with citrus groves, but growers figured they could avoid much damage and even help their thirsty crops by turning the river into flood ways. The valley has been parched all year. No lives have been reported lost since the flood sprang last Thursday from torrential rains in the Del Rio area, about 200 miles upstream. At Laredo, 50 miles north of here, the river was falling fast—a weath er. observer said about a foot an hour—after rising 453 feet Saturday night. Pedestrian traffic over the International Bridge there was re sumed yesterday, while automobile traffic awaited an inspection of the bridge. The visible surface of the planet Jupiter has a temperature about 248 degrees be'iow freezing. Wallace Says Party's Task Is to 'Set Americans Free' By the Associated Press MANCHESTER. N. H., June 28 — Henry A. Wallace says the major task of his New Party is to “set Americans free to control their own destiny in a world of peace and in ternational brotherhood." Mr. Wallace, making a campaign tour of New’England, was scheduled to address an outdoor rally and to meet with labor leaders and minis ters today. He told 200 delegates to the found ing convention of the New Hamp shire Progressive Party yesterday that "the fact that no existing po litical party is attempting to carry out a program to set the pestle free is justification for forming the new party.” "On the success of the New Jarty movement depends the future of our beloved country and of the whole world which rr*ust have peace, or must surely perish,” he asserted. He criticized the contention that increased military expenditures are justified by the “Russian bogey,” which he said portrays the Soviet Union “as an insatiable aggressor against which we must arm to the teeth to defend ourselves.” “But if any one points; out that Russian aggression is nonsense,” the presidential candidate added, “he is labeled as subversive, a Red, Russian ageift or a traitor.” Personal Service in Real Estate Having no salesman, youf property will receive the personal .attention of a Real Estate Broker witk 22 years' experience in the Washing ton area.
