APPROVAL BY GREECE
U.N. COMMISSION REPORT BALKANS INQUIRY (10 a.m.) ATHENS, May 25. The Greek Foreign Minister, M. Tsaldaris, in approving the report of the United Nations’ Balkans commission, said that Greece hoped the commission’s findings and the general proposals would constitute a basis on which the Security Council could take a just decision, leading to international pacification.
A Geneva message quotes American and Russian sources as saying that tne United Nations’ Balkans Commission decided that support of the armed bands violating the Balkans frontiers should be considered a threat to the peace. The sources added that the commission approved of this final action, which was taken in closed session by nine votes to two, Russia and Poland dissenting. The commission decided by eight votes to two that Yugoslavia was primarily to blame tor support of the guerrilla warfare in Greece, that Albania and Bulgaria were blameworthy to a lesser extent, and that the conditions in Greece were a contributing factor. Russia and Poland again dissented. France abstained from participating in this conclusion on the ground that it should be left to the Security Council.
