Red Satellites Flayed
By U.N. For Rebel Aid
Albania, Bulgaria And Yugoslavia
Condemned For Aiding Greek Bands
PARISQ Nov. 27.—(AP)—The United Nations A‘ssem
bly today formaily condemned three Sov_let. s.atellltes-];
Aibam’a, Bulgaria and Yugoslavia — for aiding Gree
guerrillas. s
The action came after a bitter
debate in which John Fdster
Dulles, acting chairman of the
United = States delegation, called
on the Soviet bloc countries to
stop spreading Cemmunism by
“force, coercion and t‘eyrorism."
" Vote 47 to 6
The vote was 47 to'6, with only
the Russian-led. group. voting no.
Dulles told the "assembly the
Americah people rate communis
tic methods, but do not hate peo
ple who believe differently from
the way Americans do. He vir
tually disregarded an hour and
40-minute speech delivered earlier
by Russia’s Andrei Y. Vishinsky.
The Soviet Deputy Foreign Min
ister, shouting and gesturing at
tacked investigators of the U. N.
Special Committee on the Balkans
(UNSCOB) as “amateur sherlock
holmeses” and' called UNSCOB’s
report “junk” and “garbage.”
The resolutions approved by the
assembly was sponsored ‘by the
United States, Britain, France and
China. In addition to condemning
Greece’s three nprthern neigh
bors, the measure extended the
life of UNSCOB for anoiher year.
Russia Demands Vote
Despite the one-sided vote on
this resolution, Russia demanded
a 4 vote on a Soviet resolutloq
which called -for the end' of
UNSCOB and the immediate
withdrawal of all foreign troops
and foreign . military person_nel.
This was a reference to American
and British missions in Greece.
The Soviet proposal was rejected

Elsewhere in the U. N.

sembly’s Political - - Committee

Palestine resolutions before the
assembly. The Palestine question

use of the Soviétlom as
the sole currency for B rlin. No
dbparent progress was made to
ward a solution, however.
The assembls spent the entire
day on the Greek-Balkans case.
Vio nguage
Dules said the visleat language
ATHENS BANNER-HERALD
used by Vishinsky and other op
ponents .of the majority-approved
resolution “is confirmation that
Greece’s northern neighbors are
helping the Communist attempts
to overthrow the Greek govern
ment.” ey
“When men in high official posi
tions assail their colleagues before
the United Nations and use violent
language,” Dulles said, “there are
lesser followers to use violent
deeds.”
The American delegate answer
ed the remark made yesterday by
Ales Bebler, Yugoslav delegate,
who "had said “we are hated be
cause of our form of government.”
Dulles said he hopes Bebler did
not believe that.
“It is quite true,”” Dulles said,
“speaking for the American peo
ple, that they do not want a com
munistic form of government for
themselves and that they doubt
that form of government is good
for any people, but that opinion
does not reflect itself in that we
believe in a world society of
diversity and tolerance.”
AGAINST LOWERPRICESUPPORTS
Farmers’ Complaints May Lead
To Federal Crop Program Change
WASHINGTON, Nov. 27—(AP)
—“Grass Roots” protests against
possible lower government price
supports on major crops irn 1950
may lead the Truman administra
tion to ask the new Congress to
change existing farm programs.
Farmers’ criticism is being di
rected principally at price support
provisions of a long-range farm
act passed by the Republican-con
trolled 80th Congress and signed
by President Truman.
Reduce Price Supports
Those provisions would greatly
reduce price supports on cotton,
wheat, corn and some other crops
from present levels.
Objections by farmers to the
new program are flowing into the
agriculture department. Concern
also has been expressed by some
members of Congress, particularly
from the cotton South. Likewise,
some uneasiness about the new
law was evideni at a recent coi
vention of the National Grange at

MONTGOMERY, Ala, Nov. 27
—(AP)—Rivers approached the
danger stage in central and south
Alabama but were expected to
start falling late today and to

Swollen by heavy rains during
the last 24 hours, the Alabama
river hit 38.3 feet here this morn
ing. It is predicted to reach a 51~
foot crest late Sunday, six feet
over the danger mark.
The Tallapoosa rose to less than
two feet of the 40-feet danger
level. According to predictions
it will reach a crest of 45 feet by
noon before dropping.

The matter is high on the pro

Officials close to Secretary of
Agriculture Brannan said the Tru

that it welcomes suggestions for
possible amendments to the new
law. e
Nationwide Conference
The administration, these
sources said, will depend heavily
on views expressed by delegates
at a nationwide conference of gov

Chinese Change War Tactics
As Battle Nears Capital City
NANKING, Nov. 27. -— (AP) — Chinese government
armies, evidentlv apandoning their old positional war
fare, were battling the Communists in the open today in a
zone extending from 50 to 200 miles northwest of Nan
king. 1
‘The war's eenter of gravity ap
peared to have shifted from
Suchow, 211 miles by rail north
west of this capital, to the Suhsien
neighborhood, 45 miles south' of
Suchow. A
The Catholic newspaper Vi Suth
Pao reported’ 10,000 Communists
had infiltrated into Changpaling,
60 miles by rail,and 50 by air
north of Yangtze, only to be en
circled by government forces.
"Main Battle
The Kiangnan Evening Post said
the main battle ‘was in progress
around Suhsien. (This - was indi
rectly confirmed by a Communist
broadecast claiming capture of
Lingpi, 35 miles east of Suhsien,
on a road where pro-government
reports listed heavy fighting Fri
day).
The Post said Gen. Chiu Ching-
Chuan’s second army group had
been transferred from east of
Suchow to the Suhsien line.
However, Associated Press Cor
respondent Tom Lambert inter
viewed Chiu. 12 miles east of
Suchow Friday. (It is unlikely that
and Army could have moved 45
miles on foot overnight, even if
states want in the form of farm
aid programs.
Dissatisfaction of the cotton
South with the new farm law has
been expressed by Senator Thom
as (D.-Okla.) and Rep. Cooley
(D.-N. C.) who are expected to
become chairmen of the Agricul
ture committees in the Senate and
House.
Potato Crop
They have announced that they
will demand a revision in the so
called “flexible” price support re
vision of the new law. Under that
provision, support prices of major
crops would be determined by the
supply. This provision already has
been applied to the 1949 potato
crop.
The greater the supply, the
lower would be the support level.
Likewise, the smailer the supply,
the higher would be the support
level. This flexibility is designed
io serve as an indirect controi on
produstion — that is, to prevent
surpluses anfi shortages.

Banner-Herald Sports Editor
Dyramic Joe Geri carried Georgia to
victory here yesterday afternoon in Saii
ford Stadium before 52,000 customers, as
the Bulldogs captured the Southeastern
Conference championship with a 21-13
decision over Georgia Tech.
A big Homecoming crowd thrill
ed to the performance enacted by
Geri, who reached his peak against
the Jackets. He played havoce in
the Tech secondary, bulling his
way over the lighter opposition
time and again.
Georgia held a decided advan
tage in the ball-advancing depart
ment, rushing the ball for 259
yards and passing 105 for a total
of 364 yards, compared to the
Jackets’ 62 rushing and 65 passing
for a total,of 127 yards.
The gamie rockedgback and forth
for most of the first quarter, un
til Georgia got up steam and rolled
65 yards for the initial counter of
the contest. A pass, Johnny Rauch
to end Gene Lorendo, ate up 33
yards in the march, which saw the
homelings take ten plays to score.
Floyd Reid skirted left end for the
touchdown from the five. Geri
converted the first of three extra
points to put the Bulldogs out
Tromy, e e ,
| Second Score
Georgia racked up its second
touchdown early in the second
stanza on a 93-yard drive. Geri’s
45-yard run from the Georgia
'seven was the spark that sent the
’Bulldogs on their way. Four first
downs were chalked up-in the ad
vance, with John Tillitski scoring
from the five to put the Bulldogs
two touchdowns ahead of the At
lanta school. Geri converted and
Georgia left the field at halftime
leading 14-0. w
~ Tech put together several nice
plays and a few passes to march
to the Georgia 17 just before the
‘half, but Gene Chandler inter
‘cepted Bob McCoy’s pass at the
two to end the threat.
- Joe Geri had the first of two
kicks blocked on him early in the
third quarter, when Tech’s great
guard, Bill Healy, broke through
to block the punt at the Georgia
21. The ball rolled into the end
zone where end George Broadnax
recovered for the Yellow Jacket
touchdown. Dinky Bowen kicked
the extra point and the Techsters
were back in the ball game.
The Buildogs came right back
and marched from their own 46 to
the Tech three, where the Jacket
line held the Georgians and took
over. Floyd Reid broke over
tackle for 23 yards to put the ball
at the seven, but the Bulldogs
could advance the yard-marker
only four yards in as many tries.
~ Lightning Plays
Wally Butts’ determined crew
was not to be denied, however, and
struck with the fury of lightning
a few plays later. Kenny McCall

the Georgia 47 and went the dis

He was absolutely right.
Three contest winners were
asked to guess the score of the
Bulldog-Jacket fray, and the
results are astounding.
Not to mention Woods’
bulls-eye, Eugene Powers —
winner of a contest sponsor

only one point, predicting a
21-14 Georgia win.
Herman Nash, jr., winner
of Gallant-Belks’ contest,
missed the score only three
points, guessing 20-12. ‘
The Dr. Pepper Bottling
Company was the sponsor in
the contest in which Woods
was the winner. Gimicks in the

Chancellor Harmon Caldwell
Honored At Elaborate Dinner
The University of Georgia faculty presented retiring
President Harmon W. Caldwell with a gold watch and
chain at an elaborate dinner Friday night at the Coeordi
nate College Dining Hall. Presentation was made by Dean
R. C. Wilson. : s
President Caldwell, recently el
evated to the chancellorship of the
University System after over 13
years as head of the University, in
accepting the watch paid high
praise to the faculty and staff, ex
pressing appreciation for the loyal
support and co-operation he had
received during his incumbency as
president of the institution.
Dean Alvin B. Briscoe acted as
master of ceremonies for the pro
gram which included a violin solo
by Robert Harrison with Hugh
Hodgson at the piano.
Lt. ' McDuffié ‘did nbdt elaborate
on the arrest or assign any reason
for the killing: -
He did disclose, however, that
two negroes and @ white man
were being held in Lyons as ma
terial . witnesses. . . . .
The GBI officer also sought to
exonerate the Klan. “I think the
Ku Klux Klan has been wrong
fully accused in this case. It is
our belief they aré not Builty of
shooting Mallard.”
His' statement followed on the
heels of one by Dr. Samuel Green,
Grand Dragon of the Klan, claim«
ing that the robed members of the
invisible empire also had been
cleared by Toombs County Sheriff
R. E. Gray. §
McDuffie said Mallard’s widow
would be taken to Swainsboro,
Ga., for questioning by Capt. Del
mar Jones, GBI chief. ' i
Those held in Lyons were iden
tified by McDuffie as Frank Brtn—;
son, a white farmer and the first
man to reach the scene after the
claying: William Tim Carter, 18,
negro, and his sister, Emma Lean

The Orange Bowl, last of the major
bowls in the nation not to name its Hang

secrecy on its negotiations.
A spokesman for the committee said he
had no idea when the group

Georgia was being mentioned
as a sure-fire bet for one team

dogs’ opponent was a horse of an

the bowl selections. »
Coach Wally Butts could not
be reached for comment on tha
situation.

whether or not the Bulldogs had
been tendered a feeler bid by the

Student Injured
As Car Overturns
Ray Dollar, a University stu
dent of Cairo, Ga., received back
injuries when the car in which
he was riding overturned near
Whitehall early last night. %
Two other persons, a man and
a woman, escaped with slight in
juries.
Mr. Dollar lived at the Y. M.
C. A. Hospital attendants said
the full extent of his injuries had
not been determined.
E. B. Braswell spoke briefly as
representative of the Board of Re
gents. Dean R. Preston Brooks
outlined for the group the progress
of the University during the term
of Dr. Caldwell as president.
Dr. Wilson in his presentation
remarks said:
“Harmon (please pardon me if
I should have said ‘Mr. Chancel
lor, but I find it difficult to ad
just myself to the new title, (not
only difficult, but painful).
“Of course, we, of the University
community, appreciate the many
things you have done for the Uni
versity through the years of your
service. iid X : i
~ “Material things have their val
‘ues, but spiritual things have far
greater values, and, through the
years to come, we will come to ap
preciate most the fact that we
have had the privilege of serving
with a man who has personified all
that a man should who is a True
Gentleman and a Real Scholar.
“We have been watching you,
‘Harmon, through the vears, first
as student then as alumnus, pro
fessor, dean and president, and al
ways with pride.
“We believe that you will bear
still further ‘watching’ and even
‘chaining,’ and therefore present
to you this watch and chain as a
small token of our esteem, our love
and with the ‘wish for all good
things in life for you and yours.”
Dr. Brooks' address was a gra
phic picture of the University's
history during the past fifty years,
dealing with the progress made
under the several presidents who
served during that period. The
speech is too lengthy to carry in
full in this issue, but the complete
text will appear in Monday’s pa
per.
In the absence of Chairman Pope
B. Brock, who is in South Ameri
ca, Earl Braswell spoke as follows
on behalf of the Board of Regents:
