U.S. said to be stalling for time on Formosa; UN trusteeship

Large-scale Allied exercises

Frankfurt, August 31. British, American, and French troops will join between September 11 to 18. In one of the biggest military training exercises held in Germany since the war.

Washington, August 30.

The United States Government, faced with tho resentment of the Asian peoples if it were to abrogate the provisions of the Cairo Declara tion on Formosa, is stalling on the Formosa issue ponding the outcome of the Korean war, well-informed diplomatic observers said today. These observers said President Truman's state- ment that the United States "would welcome United Nations consideration of the case of Formosa," was not calculated to be an invita- tion to decide who should rule Formosa, but was offered merely as evidence that the United States has no aggressive designs on the island,

Sir Owen to report to UN

Washington, August 30. American officials Bald yes- terday they had been advised that Sir Owen Dixon, the Aus- tralian jurist who was selected by the United Nations to medi- ate the dispute between India and Pakistan over the princely "state"of Kashmir," would arrive

in New York within 10 days or two weeks to give the world organisation, a detailed report of his efforts.

Sir Owen, who went to the Indian sub-continent last May, has already advised the United Nations that he has falled in his nnounce, I task. "I regret to have come to the conclusion that there is no immediate prospect of India and Pakistan "composing any of their differences over the states of Jammu and Kashmir," Sir Owen cabled earlier from Korachi.

However United Nations circles are hopeful that Sir Owen in his formal report will have some sug- gestions as to what steps should be tried next to settle this dis- pute. For that reason, his appea-

New reace in

York is eagerly awailed.

The United States Government maintains a strict "hands off" at- titude toward the Kashmir dis- pute. However, some officiRAN privately express the opinion that partition of the State is the only solution. They recognise that, even if partition is agreed to by both sides, the question of who should havo' the famous Vale of Kashmir probably would bog down any negotiations.

United Nations trusteeship over Formasi, the teclinical detalls would be formidable, A trustee- shilp over Formosa could not fail to fall within what is a "strategie" trusteeship under the United Na- tions Charter, This involves Se- curity Council approval of the arrangement, as opposed to simple approval by the United Nations Trusteeship Council when the arrangement is not strategie.

Oncials here thought it would that the

Stalling for time The consensus of diplomatic

circles here was that both the United States and the Govlet Union were stalling for time as regarded Formos, while they awaited the outcome of the Korean situation. Soviet chargeS

Baltimore. August 30.

Influential Baltimore "Sun" today accused the South African Government of 'pro- paring a trumped-up election to annex the trust territory of South West Africa.

In an editorint, the "Sun" said, "When a country these days tries to anricx a neighbour by a rigge election in defiance of the United Nations, it sounds like Communist rjolngs.

"But the Malan Government in the Union of South Africa is at

a different point on the political spectrum from Communism, and that country's latest dealings with South West Africa are saddening proof that political morality in Capetown has steadily worsened since the defcat of the former Prime Minister, General Jan Smuts.

The Government of Primo Minister Daniel Malan, pledged to keep African natives in their places, has won niready the bitter antagonism of the Indian

"Now the Malan Government in out for world-wide condemnation, by going ahead with a trumped- South up election to integrate West Airlea with the Union.

"The election today will be to name six South West Africans as members of the South African Assembly (or Parliament) in an outright move to annex the man- dated territory,

"The six members will be whitd men, of course. Only adult white residents of the territory-about one in every 17 residents-wili bo eligible.

"None of the 300,000 natives will be granted a volce in select- ing the men who ostensibly 'will represent them.

"The election campaign is based mainly on a slogan of preventing the interference of the United Nations in the internal affairs of South Africa."-Reuter.
