EXPULSION FROM RUMANIA
Soviet Treatment Of U.S. Correspondent MOSCOW REJECTS PROTESTS (N.Z. Press Association—Copyright)
(Rec. 7 p.m.) WASHINGTON, June 25. The United States Acting-Secretary of State (Mr Dean Acheson) told a press conference that Russia had flatly rejected a United States protest against the Russian expulsion of a correspondent of the ‘‘Christian Science Monitor,” Reuben Markham, from Rumania.
Mr Acheson said the United States had registered objections both from Moscow and Bucharest, without avail. The Soviet Ministry of Foreign Affairs had replied contending that the American argument furnished no foundation for rescinding Soviet action against American correspondents. Mr Acheson commented that the Kremlin took this view in spite of the suppression of news freedom being a violation of the Potsdam agreement. Reuben Markham had written stories on conditions in Rumania to which the Russians objected.
