Acheson 'Outraged' at Attack on Planes
WASHINGTON, Aug. 20W;P)-An outraged state department
shot a third stiff note to Yugoslav today, this time over an attack
on an American transport plane forced to crash landing.
Word came from the navy, at the same time, that Adm. Marc
E Mitscher. acting commander-in-chief of the Atlantic fleet, and
Vice Adm. Forrest P. Sherman, deputy chief of naval operations,

!SM6 Potm,cter Cragg radio and issued here by the Yugoslav news agency, Tito denied that
that the (mm must be I ,ne American plane, forced down near Ljubljana by gunfire of two
1 ugoj-lav fighter craft, had been lost in the clouds.
U. S. Ambassador Richard C. Patterson announced in Belgrade
on August 18 that the army C-47 transport, flying a regular run
from Vienna to Udine, Italy, was lost in a storm and was attacked
just as it emerged from a hole in the clouds.
The statement issued here quoted Tito, who j claimed to have
witnessed the incident while vacationing nearby, as saying "the
weather was far from being cloudy, and was. In fact, perfectly clear."
No reference was made by Tito to the reported shooting down
of a second U. S. transport plane by Yugoslav fifhter planes near
the Yugoslav-Austrian border on Monday.
The Yugoslav premier, according to the Statement, denounced
"certain sections of reactionaries" in the United States and Great
j Britain for the "strange attitude adopted toward allied Yugoslavia in
this matter lately." ,
Yugoslavia, he declared, desires peace, "but not at any price."

Military Parade
GORIZA, Aug.20.-7P-More
than 10.000 troops of the crack
U. S. 88th division in full war
gear paraded in the allied occu
pation zone of Venezia Giulia
today, so close to the dividing
Morgan line that Yugoslav
forces could witness the impres
sive display of American might.
The timing of the display ap
peared to be at least partly co
incidence, since the occasion
was the award of battle honors.
Some of the long series of inci
dents heightening the strain oc

British Seek
Trusteeship
Of Palestine
LONDON, Aug. 20-cVPV-Britain
will ask the United Nations for
sole trusteeship over Palestine,
a well-qualified government source
said today, and there were im
mediate indications the move
would touch off a widespread
diplomatic battle for control of
the strategic holy land.
Arab sources in London said
the Arab countries surrounding
Palestine would press instead for
complete Independence of the tiny
country and it was suggested
that Egypt would ask for trustee
ship if the independence move
failed.
Diplomatic quarters said Russia,
which long has urged that the
British get out of Palestine and
let Jews and Arabs settle their
own problems, could be expected
to oppose British trusteeship. The
United States, building ah oil
pipeline across Palestine, could be
expected to favor it, they added.
