Gives Warning

No Longer To Appease Threat Of The Veto

BLUNT SPEAKING BY HERSCHEL JOHNSON

Lake Success, N.Y., Aug. 12. Complete failure to reach a compromise on future United Nations action in the Balkans was re- ported to the Security Council today by the Chairman of the sub-committee appointed to seek an agreement.

The United States then served notice that if action. in the Balkans was frustrated by the Soviet veto, the United States was prepared to take other measures to protect Greece.

In the moat forthright and hard-hitting speech yet

heard

in the Security Council. Mr. flerschel Johnson bluntly ac- used the Communists of be ing responsible for. the Greek troubles, Greece's northern neighbours were aggressors, he alded, and the United States was prepared to join with any other members of the United Nations in taking measures to help Greece retain her indepen- fence.
