Withdraw All Foreign Troops From Greece

-SOVIET DEMAND

Paris, Oct. 28,-Russia today urged the United Nations to order the withdrawal of all foreign troops from Greece. Mr Andrei Vyshinsky, Soviet Deputy Foreign Minister, in a long speech, by turns violent and sarcastic, told the Political Committee:

"Greece has been transformed into a colony of the United States, but she must be re-born as ant independent State. Without the protection of American and British forces, the tottering Greek Government could not stay in power for a single hour, so great is the hatred of the Greek people against it."

He condemned as "garbage" the long report of the United Nations Balkans Committee and said that the witnesses it quoted were rom- pletely and utterly untrustworthy."

The Special Commission on the Balkans should be discontinued, he Bald.

M Vyshinsky put forward a four- polut proposal, by which the General Assembly should:

Opposition To The Development Of Japan's Textile Industry

Geneva, Oct. 28. Mr Ernest Thornton, the British workers delegate on the International Labour Organisa- tion's textile committee here, today urged that the occu pation authorities in Japan should prevent the rebuilding of the Japanese textile industry to its pre-war level.
