Votes " Approval Of

Georgi Mal

By THOMAS P. WHITNEY

MOSCOW. (NP)-The Suiprcme -inviet. has unanimously approved ahe selection of Georgi Malenkov as the new prime minister and as quickly agreed to a sweeping re- organization of the government that abolishes more than half the cabinet posts. '

The more than 1.000 delegates to the two houses of the Soviet Parliament-some of whom had travelled for days to reach Mos- cow-then adjourned and went home after the Sunday session lasting 67 minutes.

Malenkov Speaks

in a short speech, Malenkov re- peated the main outlines of his funeral oration over the bier of Joseph Stalin last Monday. Again stressing a policy of peace. he said there are no controversial issues with any nation that can not 'be iettled peacefully.

Dressed in a. green-khaki tunic buttoned to the chin. Malenkov laid in his key declaration of the lav:

"At present and in the fut- ure there is no such trouble- some or unsolved question which cannot be ” solved by peaceful means." - 9 He went on to say that this in-

commenting afterward, one for- eign diplomat said "his speech ,1. most amounted to an offer to sit down with the United States and anyone else and try to ease the world's tension."

"It could be one of the most important statements to be made in a very long while." said anoth- er diplomat.

Mslenkov cheered

Malenkov was cheered at nearly every stage of the proceedings.

1-le declared the new govern- ment's foreign policies are based on respect for the rights of other countries, "strict adherence to all treaties." and co-operation and de- velopment of business relations with all countries. whether Com- munist cr capitalist.

He added that the soviet Union would draw even tighter its ties with its allies. first of all with Communist China and the "poop- le's democracies" of Eastern Eur- ope.

Aimed Al Strengthening

By seagbsn Maynes WASHINGTON. (Reuters)-Prep ident. Eisenhower and his defence chiefs have mapped a new long- range strategy for strengthening all the Allied forces in the Far East to increase ali- nd military premure on the Communists. it was authoritatively learned today. Basic factor in the planning is a presidential decision that the conflict in Korea must no longer be regarded as a. iarate fight but an integral part of the big antl- Communist front in Asia.

Top ems

Within this frar iework the plans. some of which are already in op- eration. would include:

1. Closer co-ordination between the Allied forces fighting the Com-

Malaya.

2. Training and equipment of up to six new South Korean divisions so that a 20-division l7tepu.blic of Korea. army could hold its own. 3. Gradual withdrawal of United States divisions from the Korean front line for the build-up of highly mobile reserve striking force. 4. More and faster aid to the French and Vietnamese armies in Indo-Chins. to help raise two new Vietnam divisions trained in guer- rilla-type warfare.

5. A steady build-up of Chinese

Nationalist strength on the islmd of Formosa which would include more ships for mikes at the Com- muniet-held mainland.

First Steps Taken

The first steps for closer associ- ation of the Korean and Indo-Chi- nese military commands are ready being taken.

It was learned that Gen. Mark clai-k..tbe Allied commander. in Korea, will leave soon for Indo- Ohins. ') inspect the situation there and consult on future moves against the Communists.

Although defence department of- ficials were naturally secretive it did not appear that the United military leaders were contemplat- ing any full-sosle Korean offensive in the near future.

Japanese Election Called For April

To KY 0. (Reuters) - Rebels broke away from the Liberal party of Premier Bhigeru Yoshida Sun- day and formed there own "-lnlllm Liberal party" to fight the election called for April 19.

Yoshlda will try to regain power at the head of his party. which is mainly conservative in comple - ion. He dissolved the Diet Satur- day night because the secession of 22 Liberals brought him defeat in I. "no confidence" vote.

the "momentum" of the drive to get American support of the Com- monwealth economic plan-and that's when Canada came in. Mr. Butler told an Ottawa Can- adian Olub audience that he had received confirmation from the Canadian Government "that in the weeks and months ahead the lnnuence and support of your statesmen will be with us.” "Canada will not fall in take again her historic role in linking

the Commonwealth with North

Commons May Begin Morning Sessions Soon

OTTAWA. (GP) - The Commons soon may start morning. afternoon and night sittings to finish sea-. eiondl busirieim. . 1

It is anticipated that the tempo

- will increase after a. short Easter

recess next month. The recess will last from Good Friday, April 3, to Monday, April 6. inclusive.

The short recem and longer sit- ting hours would be aimed at completing business early in May so Prime Minister st. Laurent, most members of the cabinet and others can attend the Coronation of the Queen June 2.

Present prospects of finishing by the target date aren't bright.

The debate on Finance Minister Abibott's 1963-54 budget has .de- veloped into a marathon since it began Feb. 19. though a vote may come early this week.

Because of this delay not a single estimate for any of the many de- partments of government has been passed. Besides estimates there are 25 it-ms of business, includ- ing nearly a dozen bills. on the government's section of the order paper.

Inadditicn to business within the House itself. some committees such as the radio committee which will consider CBC affairs, have yet to start sessions.

Allied Airmen . Aciive Over Korea

SEOUL, (AP)-Allied fighter- hombers Sunday smashed Com- munist rail and road bridges, shot up supply areas and dumped tons of high explosives on Red ironi- linc fortifications in North Korea.

Sabre jets scoured Mig alloy and screened the fighter bombers. but the only Communist fighters sighicd raced for cover behind the Manchurian frontier.

On the ground only a handful of small pre-dawn patrol and 'probing skirmishes were reported MOM: the 155-mile front. Allied nrilllery and mortar fire brushed off the attacks with ease.

Four British destroyers screen- ed the Yugoslav naval trslnlng ship Gsleb Seagull as it moved through the haze off Ramsgate toward the mouth of the Thames where it anchored overnight.

Death ire

VIENNA. (CF) Communist Czechoslovakia, shaken by mass discontent and the death of 56- year-old President Klement Gott- wald, appeared to be facing new purges, shortages and an uncertain future.

More than 30 hours after the sud- den death of Gottwald from the after-effects of a cold he appar- ently caught at Stalin's funeral. there had been no announcement of a successor to the 56-year-old Czechoslovakia dictator,

Element of Doubt

.Goti.wa1d's unexpected death. nime days after Stalin's. is bound to leave an element of doubt among the 12,500,000 Czech people as to whether he may not have been murdered by agents of Russia's Drime minister, Georgi Malenkov. with his concentrated powers. Gottwald could have taken Czecho- slovakia out of the Kremlin camp as Tito did Yugoslavia.

Gott1wald's succescr may have to initiate a new purge of the govern- ment and Communist party to con- solidate his power. Such a. purge would be the third in five years. it would add dimension to diisconte-nt. uncertainty to latent unrest.

It-was possible there would be a struggle among Gotizwald's four top deputies. But one of them - 68. year-old Premier Antonin Zapo- tocky seemed to diplomats here to be the most likely heir to much of Gottwald's authority.

Virtual Dictator

Like his life-long friend. Stalin. Gottwald had been a virtual dicta- tor since he seized control of Czechoslovakia in 1948. He held final control over the government. the Communist party, the army and the police.
