ANGLO-SOVIET TREATY TALKS London Rejects Accusation By "Izvestia"
Desire For New Understanding
Moscow, May 22.
The Soviet newspaper "Izvestia" today accused the Foreign Secretary, Mr. Bevin, of misrepre- senting the facts of the Moscow conference and thus increasing the difficulty of settling the German problem. "Izvestia" said the
reason no agreement was reached on revision of the Anglo-Soviet Treaty was because Britain tried to write in amendments making the treaty worse instead of better.

Warning Of Possible British Refusal
Washington, May 22. The Under-Secretary of State for Economic Affairs, Mr. William Clayton, warned Con- gress today that it is risking refusal of the whole British Commonwealth to cooperate in the proposed International Trade Organisa- tion if it persists in pushing the bill designed to insulate the United States wool industry against foreign competition.
"If we impose new barriers to this trade we can- not expect Australia, New Zealand and South Africa to cooperate wholeheartedly in meeting the type of post-war world we want to have," Mr. Clayton said in a letter read to the House of Representatives as it began to debate on the bill.

Any present threat to the British Empire comes not from the Soviet Union but from the Unit-

here sponsored by the newly-organised Ali-

He describes the "furore" raised in the American press over the Soviet threat to the British Em- pire as "a smokescreen to cover the gen- eral economic offensive by America's expan- sionist forces,"
