The tour of newsmen to study reconversion in industrial plants throughout the state will start in Ukraine Raps British Action LONDON. Feb. 7 P) The Ukraine told the United Nations Security council tonight that British troops had been used de liberately to suppress a people's movement in Indonesia, and British Foreign Secretary Ernest Sevln retorted lie." Foreign Commissar Dmitri Manuilsky of the Ukraine, claim' ins the situation in Indonesia threatened international peace, asked the Security council to send a special commission for "on-the-spot" investigation and to take necessary measures to es tablish peace. He said the Ukraine does not ask withdraw- al of British troops from Indo nesia. Manuilsky said the "essence of the Ukrainian declaration on Indonesia is that it considers it inadmissible that British troops should be used for suppression of the national movement of the Indonesian people." "The Ukrainian delegation," he added, "has ground for ex pressing surprise that the British used Japanese troops in British operations against the Indone sian people. Such use of Japan ese enemy troops against the na tional movement in Indonesia undermines the authority of Uni ted Nations and should not be permitted.
