U. S. Asks Proposal
Be Deferred
LAKE SUCCESS. N. Y. (/P> —
The United States demanded today
that the security council defer ac
tion on a Soviet proposal which
would place American aid to
Greece under United Nations su
pervision.
Warren R. Austin, head of the
U. S. delegation, in a long reply to
Soviet deputy foreign minister An
drei V Gromyko’s attack on the
Truman program, declared the
council should take no action on
the Soviet proposal until after
Congress had approved the admin
istration plan and agreements had
been reached between the United1
States and Greece and Turkey.
“We would then be in a position
to judge calmly and objectively
and in the spirit of unanimity
which I hope will prevail in this
council, the merits of the Sov'el
proposal,” he said.

To Produce Movie
On Red Activities
HOLLYWOOD, (VP)—Film pro
ducer Darryl F. Zanuck says he
plans to make a movie based on “a
story of Russian secret agents op
erating in the United States and
Canada” and dealing with “espion
age” and “atomic secrets.”
Zanuck, executive vice president
of 20th Century-Fox studios, said
he was “inspired” to make the
film by F.B.I. chief J. Edgar Hoov
er’s report last March 2G to the
House committee on un-American
activities.
The film executive said Hoover’s
report showed that the Russians
have in the United States “a defin
itely operating menacing system
better organized than the Nazis be
fore the war.”
He added that a report last June
27 of the Canadian Royal commis
sion will form part of the story’s
foundation. Zanuck called this re
port “the bgst scenario I’ve read
in my life” and said it showed “the
operation of a well-planned Rus
sian-trained ring operating in Can
ada.”
“What has happened in Canada
is obviously happening in this
country,” he asserted.
