America Charged With "Enslaving" Greece

POLISH ALLEGATION IN

UN POLITICAL COMMITTEE

Lake Success, Nov. 1.-Dr Katz-Suchy, the Polish delegate, de- clared today that there was "no real evidence” that the majority of the members of the United Nations Political Committee had "made a serious effort to dissolve the real basis for unrest in the Balkans."

Speaking during the Committee's résumed debate on the Greek question, he said the Security Council, the General Assembly and the Balkans Commission had "howed to the dictates of the United States and to its determination to make Greece and Turkey a spearhead of American aggression in Europe."

ON SPANDAU PRISON

Berlin, Nov. 1.-A rare East-West agreement promised today to cut the huge prison costs of Germany's former Deputy Fuchrer, Rudolf Hess, for Berlin taxpayers.

Under an austerity programme drafted by the Soviet, American, British and French wardens, the German servants at Spandau prison, where Hess is housed, will be reduced from 68 to 20.

The inside maintenance staff of 17 non-Germans will be reduced to 13.

Hess and six ollier Nazi leaders convicted of war crimes at Nuremberg are the only con- victa in the big Spandau Prison in West Berlin.
