Bulgarians Want Greek Territory PARIS, Aug. 14 Bulgaria formally presented claim to the Paris peace conference today for the present Greek territory of western Thrace and was sup ported by the Soviet Ukraine delegate. Frankly admitting a "shameful alliance" with Germany during the war, Bulgarian Foreign Min ister Georgi Koulishev never theless maintained that the Bul garian army "did not fight on any front against the anti-Hitler-ian coalition." He asked that his nation be accorded the status of an allied co-belligerent, the same as that sought yesterday by Ro mania, another defeated German satellite. Western Thrace is a narrow strip of territory along the nor thern coast of the Aegean sea which gives Greece a common j frontier with Turkey. D.

Jl Ukraine delegation, charged that Greek policy was "instigated from abroad" and protested against her "demands for foreign Balkan soil." Saying he sup ported Bulgarian demands for an Aegean outlet, Manuilsky said he favored a return to the Bulgarian frontier as provided in the treaty of Bucharest of 1913. This would give Bulgaria western Thrace and the present Greek harbor of Alexandroupolis. Winccnty Riymowsky, chief Polish delegate, also declared Bulgaria "deserves an indulgent peace." u recce swuuy aisseniea. iter chief delegate, Premier Conslati tin Tsaldaris, accused Bulgaria of international crimes and de clared the draft treaty for the country which was allied to Ger many in the last two wars was "too light for a country which associated itself with the German aggressor." Pope Deplores Terror Reign VATICAN CITY. Aug. 14 (P) Pope Pius deplored terrorism in Palestine in an address to an Arab delegation delivered Au gust 3 and made public today in the Vatican newspaper 1'Osser vatore Romano. "We condemn all recourse to force and violence, wherever it comes from, even as we con demned repeatedly in the past the persecutions which a fa natical anti-Semitism unleashed against the Hebrew people," the pope said. The five-man delegation had been sent to present the Arab case before the Vatican and had told the pope that the Jews were importing "fighting men' into Palestine, its spokesman told a news conference after the papal audience. The pope said that a peace in Palestine founded on "truth and justice" presupposed that "the rights of others, or certain ac quired positions and tradition, especially in the religious field, would be respected.

Aug. 14 l.-l'l New reports of large scale fight ing in north China today wrote a flaming reply to Chiang Kai- shek's six-point program to re store peace to his nation as a communist spokesman charged, "the government wants war." The communists' Yenan radio said that red troops had wiped out two government divisions north of the key city of Jukao in a resumption of heavy fight ing in north Kiangsu province. It also said 5000 government troops had laid down their arms after seeing 3000 comrades killed or wounded. Yenan said fierce fighting was raging on both sides of the Lunghai railway in east Honan and north Kiangsu provinces. It added that government troops were receiving considerable air support. Tatung Manaced In Peiping. the independent newspaper Hsin Min Pao re ported communist troops attack ing Tatung had pierced govern ment defenses within seven tenths of a mile east of that north Shansi province rail junc tion. It said red forces were within two miles of Tatung on the north, west and south and fixed the combatants' strength as 10 communist regiments against 10,000 government de fenders. Meantime, the government's central news agency quoted Brig. Gen. William E. Clement, commander of U. S. marines at Tsingtao, as saying only one battalion or regiment would be left as reserves were returned to the United States. Wane Ping-nam, communist spokesman replying to Chiang's peace program, cnargeo. ine government wants war. We find the government neither wants peace nor has any faitliful de- irp for it." His statement made it clear that Chiang's declaration did nothing to clear the disputes be tween the communists and Kuomintang (government party)- Phoney Fire Fighter Grabs Slot Machines PENDELTON, Aug. 14 P) Fire completely destroyed a building at Meacham. 30 miles east of here, early this morn ing, leaving only charred em bers of the Chuck Wagon cafe, the post office and general store owned bv Harvey White.

Year's Indoctrination For the first year. In the opinion of council members, until the new manager gets fully acquainted wth the city's affairs, he would probably be just another city employe, but in the long run he would be worth many times his salary in savings to the city accruing from efficient administration. The maimger position would be appointive and the manager would not go out of office be cause of a change in adminis tration. His Job would be to provide continuing administra tion and advice when a new mayor or a new council is com ing in to learn their Jobs. The reason July 1. 1047, is established in the resolution as the earliest time the city can hire a manager, if the charter amendment is passed by the people, is that no money has been budgeted this year for such an office and it will be the start of the next fiscal year bo fore money can be set aside for that purpose. The manager will be a full time employe of the city and have an office in the city hall.

A crew of five men went to work Tuesday morning and Lo renz indicated more men would be added as the work pro gressed. Material is n o w on hand for the repair of the first boiler. All work on the boilers will be completed by the time cold weather starts, he said. The present plan of the com pany is to maintain the staff it now has. Navy Needs No Draftees WASHINGTON. Aug. 14 P Unlike the army, the navy plans no call on selective service when drafting is resumed September 1 after a two-month lapse. Vice Adm. Louis E. Dcnfeld, chief of naval personnel, report ed happily today that "we now have a waiting list of men who want to enter the naval service." The army already has issued a draft call for 25.000 men next month. And Maj. Gen. Willard S.

The veteran Georgia farm leader added that he did not de sire to "be a party of any such charges." Daniel W.

Usually well informed sources said tonight that Turkey had refused cateporlcally the Soviet Union's dcm'nd that The Dardanelles be placed under Joint Russian-Turkish defense? and that the control of that vital strip of water be handled by the Black sea powers. The Turkish reply, these sources said, was understood to have contended that the Soviet demands, as contained in a note delivered last week, exceeded the limit of the Montreux con vention and left Turkey no choice but to reject them. These sources said Turkey's reply asserted that the Soviet demands, which amounted to permission to set up bases along The Dardanelles, were predicated not on international security but solely for the benefit of three nations.
