Western Allies
Advocate Return of
Trieste To Italy
'Continued from Page One*
was attributed to two main causes:
1. “Discussions in the security
council have already shown that
agreements on the selection of a
governor <for Trieste) is impossi
ble.” The peace treaty provides
that a governor for the new free
territory should be chosen by the
U. N. security council.
2. The three powers “have re
ceived abundant evidence to show
that the Yugoslav zone has been
completely transformed in charac
ter and has been virtually incor
porated into Yugoslavia by pro
cedures which do not respect the
desire expressed by the powers to
give an independent and Demo
cratic status to the Territory.
The joint statement reviewed
the compromise agreement be
tween the western powers and
Russia more than a year ago by
which the free territory of Trieste
was created and. then concluded:
I he governments of the united
States, United Kingdom and
France have therefore decided to;
recommend the return of the free
territory of Trieste to Italian sov-1
reignty as the best solution to
meet the Democratic aspirations
of the people and make possible ,
the re-establishment of peace and j
stability in that area.”
The free territory is an area of:
430 square miles with an estim
ated population of 330,000, includ- [
ing both Italians and Slavs. Ital
ians mainly inhabit the city of Tri- I
este and Slavs the country area, j
The territory is bounded on the
east and south of Yugoslavia, and
on the north by Italy with an arm i
of the Adriatic sea to the w*est. *
N.W. Storm Does j
Much Damage
SEATTLE. f/P>—Property dam
age was estimated in hundreds of
thousands of dollars today after
Sunday’s Pacific Northwest storm
of gale proportions,
j An air force plane with eight
aboard also was missing,
i The lashing winds and driving
rain left a 52-foot luxury cruiser
drifting helplessly off the mouth
! of the Columbia river, ripped two
\ barges from a tow by the cannery
, tender Maurine Greer, and whip
: ped up heavy seas that aided a'
derelict mine to elude a coast
guard cutter 45 miles off Willapa
Harbor.
About 100 skiers were marooned
i at Mount Baker Lodge when a
j snow slide blocked the only road
from the area. Highway depart
ment crews expected to clear the
road by morning.
Three unoccupied family cot
tages were destroyed at Ross Dam
as tons of snow slid down on a
construction camp for the second
time in little more than a month.
Two garages were smashed and
three homes damaged in Seattle as
earth, soaked by more than two
inches of rain in 24 hours, roared
down a West Seattle bluff.
Wind and rain were blamed for
setting off two explosions in oil
switches at a North Seattle power
station, cutting off power for
hours throughout the University
and north end districts.
