3. France should not be denied the Saar "but so for as the United States i»: aware the pe le of the Ruhr and the Rhinels desire to remain united with the rest of Germany, and the United States will not oppose their desire."

4. The allies should make clear to the Germans immediately the essential terms of the peace settle- ment they expect the Germans to accept and observe.

(By Larry llauckl NEW YORK, Sept. 6-(AP)— l-lours of preliminary oratory out" of the way, the United Nations Security Council today faced the

problem of making an early de- cision on what to do about the Soviet Ukraine's bitter charges

against Greece and Great Britain.

Delegates gained time to con- sult home governments on the demand of Australia for adjourn- ment until Monday and most of the council members awaPod these orders before formulating

plans.

Two of the possibilities appear- ed to be for the Council to:-

l, Order an investigation into the com lalnt, perhaps taking in the whoe turbulent situation in‘ the Balkans.

2. Drop the case as "unsubstan- tinted."

Russia and Great Britain stood directly opposed. with the Soviet fully supporting the complaint that Greece, with the presence of British troops as a principal fac- tor. threatened peace in the Bal- kans. The United Kingdom was on record with the statements that there was no case and the whole compllint Was “unbridled propaganda."

Australia's Paul Hasluck, follow- ing his government's policy of de- mandlnx complete information on cases before the Council, contend- ed that delegates now must decide whether the charges warrant an inquiry. Such g step was taken in the case against Franco Spain when a five-man committee stud- ied evidence for a month.

late afternoon meeting was unexpectedly post- poned until tomorrow and there was strong opinion that tomorrow would mark a turn. either toward successful conclusion of the talks or a cellulose which would mean continuation of the 54-day strike.

Today's discussions were limited to a 54-minute conversation be- tween Labor Minister Mitchell ‘and his aides and Pat Conroy. secre- tary-treasurer of the Canadian Congress of Labor.

The union leader and Minister appeared from the Minister's of- fice together. Mr. Mitchell greeted newsnapermcn with a "no com- ment" and bustled into another office.

Mr. Conroy. with a glum carpi-es- sion. said he was unable to report any progress. Changes in the positions of the lzlovcmment and union were “ slmal."

-"I m/ust. say I can't see any day- light," he said. But he r a further conference. to include representatives of the United Steelworkers of America (C. I. O.) was planned for late afternoon.

No Reason For Postponement

At the scheduled time for tn- dey's meeting Mr. Conroy with C. H. Nliillard, national director.,and Foreman Waye, Sydney, NB. and
