TITO -’ KREMLIN
First Communist Ruler To Say No
To Stalin Still Remains In Saddle
BY ALEX SINGLETON
BELGRADE, Yugoslavia, July 26.— (AP) —The first
Communist ruler to say “no” to Stalin seems to be still
firmly in the saddle.
Premier Marshal Tito has defied the wrath of the
Kremlin for more than a year now and Yugosiavia is
weathering the economic and strategic strains resulting
from the Cominform blasts at Tito for being too independ
ent.
Tito has had his troubles. Bor
der incidents — shootings, sabo
tage, spies, short-'ved sensations
which have become almost com
monplace. And there was a belt
lghtening at the dinner table
which has been eased since the
winter months by good crops.
Foren.ost ir. relieving the strate=
gic situation has been the cloSing
of the Yvrqoslav border ~to the
Greek guerrillas. Yugeslav spokes
men claim the Greek rebel cause
was sacrificed oy the Cominform’s
13-month ~anti-Tito campaign.
Of greater long range impor- !
tance is the prospect that Yugo
slavia will get economie aid from
the west soon to ease the Soviet
squeeze on this countiry’s normai
trade. The projected deals would
exchange western machinery for
Yugoslav ravs materials.
The rupture between Yugosla
via and the Greek rebels, wheth
€r or not it was intended to have
that effect, should do no harm to
Tito's bid for western credits to
finance essential purchases.
Belgrade’s carefully superyised
bress reflects Yugoslavia’s inde
pendence and confidence.
Borttm, the voicel ofedthe Com—
Munist party, display prorain
ertly a pledge bylst%e school of the
security police to support Tito and
Stand against the aims of the East
as vell as the West, »
The press also has struck out
against the actions of some of Yu~
goslavia’g neighbors -— actions
which some diplomatic observers
here feel have been deliberately
Provocative in an effort to pro
duce an excuse for rataliation.
There is a general hope here—
@nd some belief—that other Rus-
Slan satellites will revolt against
Moscow’s® highhanded rule and
seek, as Tito did, an equal voice

Atlanta Landlord Kills
Tenant And Shoots Self
ATLANTA, July 25.—(AP)—Vowing he’d “show the
OPA,” a disgruntled landlord killed a tenant, wounded
the tenant’s pregnant wife and then ghot and killed him
self last night.
Police listed the case as a murder, attempted murder
and suicide.
Shortly before the shooting, de- Y
tective J. M. Pack reported, the
landlord J. F. Bailey, 38, scrawled
a note in which he said he was go
ing to kill Bill Hayes and his wife
and show the OPA they can’t Joe
Staling me around.”
The note referred to the dead
tenant, Wililam Hays 26, and
his 21-year-old wife. The young
wife is expecting a baby in about
a month. Doctors reported her
wounds did not harm the unborn
child. She received flesh wounds
of the stomach and hip.
Pack gave these details of the
affray:
The shooting climaxed several
months of trouble between the
landlord and the Hays. Bailey had
attempted to evict the Hays but
the area office of the housing ex
pediter intervened and allowed the
couple to remain.
Detective Pack quoted the note
Bailey left as saying:
“711 just show the OPA the Hays
ecan be moved. It has come to a
time that this is not a free coun
try. The Federal government taken
over every body business. The
OPA telling pepil what they got
to do with they homes. Joe Staling
just as well to take over. I have
worked hard and saved anuff
money to buy a_home. Now since
I got my home the OPA tell me
how to runm it.”

Truman Asks $1%2 Billion
For European Arms Plan
Outlay Necessary To Combat l
Communism, Congressis Told
WASHINGTON, July 256.— (AP) —The Truman ad
ministration asked Congress today to vote a $1,450,000,-
000 foreign arms aid program, saying Russia and interna
tional Communism make this outlay necessary. :
It is a first step under the new North Atlantie Treaty,
with “future programs”’ vet to take shape. .
Truman Signs
N. A. Treaty
WASHINGTON, July 25—(AP)
—President Truman described the
North Atlantic spact today ss a
step toward “a free world, free
from fear.”
Signing the instrument of rati
fication at a White House cere
mony, the President declared:
“The American people value
peace and freedom above all
things., Our ratification of the
North Atlantic pact with the over
whelming support of the Senate
and the people shows our determi
nation to preserve this peace and
freedom.” .
The President acted shortly be
fore sending to Congress a plea
for funds to arm free countries to
resist the aggression that threat
ens this peace.

the State Department simultan
eously with a speciai mm
from President Truman ° :
give the Chief Executive sweep
ing powers to ship guns and
other weapons — but not atom
bombs — to friendly nations all
over the world.
The Department summed up
the reasons behind the adnrinis
tration’s action in these words:
“The political aggression and
expansionist aimg of the Soviet
Union, abetted by the malignant
growth of international Cornmun
ism, have bred a new fear and
insecurity in the world.”
More than $1,000,000,000 of the
proposed military help would ,o
to Atlantic treaty nations in
W.c:;n Europe — countries like
Britain, France and Belglum, Sald
the State Department in' a 41-
page pamphlet prepared for Con
gress:
“Their defense is our defense
and will continue to be of deep
concern to us as long as their
military weakness invites ag
gression.”
The aid plan now proposed, the
pamphlet said, would provide
only “urgently needed” arms for
Western Europe and “future pro
grams” will be necessary.
There was no estimate as to
i how many years these programs
might have to run.
‘ War Threat
That will depend largely, the
State Department said, on “the
degree to which we and the na
tions associated with us can re
move the threat of war.”
Today's action was a followup
to the long and bitter Senate de
"bate over ratification of the
treaty. That ratification was vot
ed last Thursday by a top-sided
82 to 13.
i But no such easy sailing ap
‘ peared in prospect for the arms
program.
! Details of the program would
not be wrilten out in law as
drafted by the administration.
Only broad assignments of au
thority would be given the Pres
ident along with responsibility
for carrying out the details him
self,
Europe Importance
Of the $1,450,000,000 which the
proposed law would let Mr, Tru
man spend, the booklet says most
would go to Western Europe—
“an area whose importance to our
security has been demonstrated
in two world wars.”
Tieing the military assistance
proposal directly to the North
Atlantic Treaty, the State De
partment said the program would
“complement” the treaty by car
rying out its principles of “self
help and mutual aid.” Of the ap
peal for arms nmrade by Western
European members of the treaty
several months ago, the Depart
i ment added: .
“Their defense is our defense
and will continue to be of deep
concern to us as long as their mil
itary weakness invites aggression.
