Byrnes Warns Russia to
Quit Blocking Peace Plan
(Continued from Page 1)
verf e or modify the Russian posi
tlon on these questions.
On the one looming biggest In
his estimate the making of
peace treaties so that the nations
ot Europe can begin to "jive ana
breathe" again, Byrnes declared
he was confident that there would
be a peace conference of the Eu
ropean nations and other inter
ested powers tnis summer.
Recalling that at Paris Molotov
blocked such a proposal, Byrnes
said this power to stop "all efforts
toward peace" must not be left
to any one nation and added :
"If a peace conference is not
called this summer, the United
States will feel obliged to request
the general assembly of the
United Nations under Article 14
of the charter to make recom
mendations with respect to the
peace settlements.
Disappointment Voiced
The article he cited gives the
assembly power to intervene In
any situation involving the gen
eral welfare or the world.
"There is no iron curtain
Byrnes said, "that the aggregate
sentiments of mankind cannot
Denetrate."
Of the Paris meeting he said
that progress toward peace settle
ments in Europe had been "dis
appointingly small" but that
some progress had been made
chiefly in clartiying issues ana
letting the governments of the
four powers know where tney
stand with relation to each other,
"Another Failure" Pepper
While most early congressional
reaction to Byrnes' speech was
favorable, Senator Popper( D.-
Fla.) told a reporter he considered
it 'pnort on "another failure."
"They may think they started
an 'ouensive for peace,' " Pepper
asserted, "but they started It with
a broadaxe. The Russians are not
going to make peace as long as
they think the United Slates and
Britain are trying to make a peace
that will serve their nationalistic
Interests alone."
Chairman Connally (D-Texas)
of the Senate Foreign Relations
Committee, who with Senator
Vandenberg (R.-Mlch.) accom
panied Byrnes to Paris as an ad
viser, termed the secretary's ad
dress "lucid and comprehensive."
Vandenberg planned his own
report to the Senate today.
Major Problems Listed
The half dozen top problems
which Byrnes listed as involving
Russia are these:
1. The holding of a peace con
ference. He said that when the
Big Four reconvene June 15 the
United States will insist on a
peace conference for either July
1 or 15, whether or not the big
powers have agreed on treaty
drafts.
2. Solution of the problem of
Trieste. This Is the main obstacle
in writing a peace treaty for
Italy. Byrnes said the United
States, Britain and France favor
a settlement of this boundary
territory dispute along nn ethnic
or nationally line which would
give Trieste, but not all the sur
rounding country; to Italy. Rus
si'a uncompromisingly backed
! Yugoslavia's claim -to the entire
awa. 3 i,
r 3. Future oconornltf- arrange
ments In the Balkans.. Byrnes said
the United States is' insisting on
, economic clauses In tlio Hun
garian, Romanian and Bulgarian
treaties which would develop free
cofnmcrce in the eastern and cen
tral European nations. Particu
larly he declared that if Russia
opposes "exclusive political und
economic blocs Molotov will not
continue, to refuse to allow these
nation? ' "to open their gates to
the commerce of an.
4. Long range suppression of
Germany. Byrnes said that while
his proposal for a 25-year, Big
Four alliance to control Germany
received British and French sup
port, he also had thought Russia
would go along because Stalin had
promised to do so at Moscow last
December. Molotov. however, op
posed the treaty, and it did not
go through.
"It is our sincere hope," Byrnes
Bald, "that after the Soviet Union
studies our proposal and comes to
appreciate our earnest desire to
see Germany disarmed and kept
disarmed, the Soviet Union will
support It wholeheartedly."
5. A German peace treaty,
Byrnes proposed at Paris, but the
Russluns blocked, a plan for
creating a council of special
acpuues wno would begin at once
the task of drawing up perma
nent peace arrangements with
the beaten Reich. The Russian
objection to this was that Molotov

could not act upon it without fur

6. The evacuation and restora

Byrnes specified that the Rus
sians had blocked a major Ameri
can objective simply by declining
to discuss the problem or saynig
when it would be discussed.

WHEREAS: The city manager
system, by relieving the mayor
