Russia Says It's Il
legal For Council
To Act On Berlin
(Continued from Page One)
to the big four council of foreign
ministers, as a formal note from
Moscow proposed earlier today.
Vishinsky declared the U. N.
charter forbids the council to dis
cuss anything copferning Ger
many until the four occupying
powers have written a peace treaty
for the beaten country.
Taking the argument to the for
eign ministers’ council, he said, of
fers the only legal way to settle
the problems of Germany, includ
ing Berlin which has been under
a Soviet land blockade since last
June 23.
[ He said the Berlin problem is
closely linked to the whole Ger
man problem. He charged that the
currency reform in western Ger
many last June was an “act of
eggression” against the Russian
occupation authorities and had
forced the Russians to take “de
fensive measures.”
U. S. delegate Warren R. Austin
gavelled the meeting to order as
chairman for October.
The western powers — Britain,
France and the United States—
pressed the charges before the
council in suite of a last-minute
Soviet effort to transer the dispute
to the big four council of foreign
ministers.
The great hall in the basement
of the Palais de Chaillot was pack
with the biggest crowd ever to at
tend a meeting of the securfRy
council.
Dewey Confident
Of GOP Victory
ALBANY, (A1)—Gov. Thomas E.
Dewey—awaiting a detailed report
of the international situation—
was described today as so confi
dent of victory he will not alter
the measured pace of his Presi
dential campaign.
Back at the New York capitol
after a 60-speech western cam
paign tour, the GOP Presidential
nominee expects to meet tomor
raw with John Foster Dulles, his
foreign affairs adviser.
Flying from the Paris meeting
of the United Nations, Dulles will
give Dewey an intimate view of
developments in the Berlin block
ade crisis.
Senator Arthur Vandenberg (R.
Mich.) will touch on other aspects
j of Republican foreign policy in a
j radio broadcast tonight.
The Republican President i a 1
nominee would not comment on his
14-day western trip. /
But an aide said Dewey regards
his prospects so highly four weeks
before the election that he has no
intention of altering his present
campaign course to trade punches
with President Truman or any
; other Democrat.
Dewey has been discussing the
J issues on what his assistants call
j “a high plane.” Democrats have
contended that the GOP nominee
talks only in generalities, never
gets down to brass tacks.
The funeral of Earl Drake has
not been announced pending re
ceipt of word from ‘he brother of
the deceased in the States.

Revival Meetings At
Church Of The Nazarene
Are A Great Success
•
The Revival Meetings which
just concluded at the Church of
the Nazarene on Sunday night,
were indeed highly successful in
every respect says Rev. Lewis
Hudgins, pastor of the church.
He seems very pleased with the
results, and takes this opportunity
to sincerely thank each and every
one from the city and elsewhere
who at.ended and helped to make
it so with their faithful attend
ance, prayers, moral and financial
j support. He is indeed thankful to
1 all who manifested such an inter
est in the old-fashioned revival.
He appreciates the services of
| Evangelist C. Helen Mooshian from
Boston, Mass., who faithfully
' preached the truths of the Bible
every night. She paid her own ex
penses up here that she might be
a help and blessing to this church.
There were 261 different indi
viduals who attended at least one
meeting during the revival; many
attended more than half, or even
all of the meetings. The average
attendance was 61. There were 36
different individuals who were at
the altar for definite spiritual help.
Nine of these were sanctified, and
dedicated their lives wholly to the
Lord for His service. A total of 19
services were held, besides three
Sunday School sessions, at which
the following were in attendance:
46, 82 and 100 this past Sunday
when we reached our goal.
Then for the first time in the
history of this baby church a
Young People’s Meeting was start
ed, and these were well attended,
just prior to the evening evangel
istic service on Sunday night.
There were 12 subscribers to the
Missionary paper and 19 for the
weekly church paper. 5 new mem
bers were added to the church last
night.
The closing service climaxed
with great victory around the al
tar, when 15 folk sought the Lord.
We are grateful to God for His
manifest presence with us through
out the entire revival.
Wednesday evening there will be
a prayer, praise and testimony
meeting at the church. Come and
bring your Bibles. The public is
cordially invited.

Oil Companies Not
To Arbitrate
With Strikers
SAN FRANCISCO, (IP) — Three
of six struck California oil com
panies gave a firm “No” last night
to a peace bid by striking CIO oil
workers. The other three firms are
expected to announce their replies
shortly.
To the union’s proposal to return
to work at a company-offered 12Vt>
cent wage increase and submit to
arbitration its demand for another
8Vfe cents, Standard of California,
Shell and the Union Oil company
said:
1. No increase beyond 12V£
cents, and no arbitration.
2. Not all strikers will be re-1
\
hired, in any event, since some
“have committed acts of vio
lence.”
Shell added it would “not be a
party to any agreement” giving
immunity to anyone for damages
caused by illegal acts—in effect, a
refusal to dismiss damage suits on
file against the labor union and its
members.
Still to be heard from: Texas
company, Richfield and Tide Water
associated.
The strike began a month ago
when 15,000 workers walked out
of major refineries. Their base pay
at the time was $1.68. Although a
few points have felt shortages,
there has been no general gasoline
famine.

Accidents, like weeds, grow in
