CHINA BACKS U.S. STAND ON GREECE'S GUERILLAS Importance To The Future Of Peace
Lake Success, Oct. 4.
The United States rested its case in the contro- versial Balkans question today by telling the United Nations it would "explore" a French proposal for conciliation of the hotly-disputed controversy. Earlier in the debate, China aligned herself solidly behind the United States resolution calling on Albania, Yugoslavia and Bulgaria to "cease and desist" from further aid to Greek guerillas. Chinese delegate T. F., Talang because of the importance directly accused Albania, this question to the future of Bulgaria and Yugoslavia of re-peace, she would support sponsibility for "the violations that have taken place of Albania, Bulgaria and in recent months in Greece," Yugoslavia "to cease and desist" and said there was "no jull-from further ald to fication" for such attacks.
