Slay Delegate Charges Western Powers Guided

By Power

PARIS. Sept. l’l—(AP)- Yugo- alav delegate Ales Bebler charged today that ths western powers were guided by power olitics in peace conference propose s for the boundaries of the free zone oi Trieste, and were attempting to e=ttibiish a bridgehead there for future action against Yugoslavia

The Bulgarian political commis- sion adopted without dissent or discussion an article requiring Russian forces to evacuate Bulgaria within 90 days of the date the lfPilly takes effect, and sped through seven other articles of the Bulgaria“ treaty.

The military commission adopt- ed provisions for division of sur- plus Italian fleet units among the United States. Britain, France and Russia and agreed on demliitariz- stion of the Italian frontiers.

The sub-committee studying s permanent statute for the free zone of Trieste, voted unanimous- iy to include women in the uni- versal suffr planned for the area. In its irst session, the sub- committee also agreed toset u an iinicamerai (one-house) leg sla- ture for the free zone, probably to be chosen on l. basis of propor- tional representation. The assemb- ly will draft the territory's con- stitution.

Mr. Bebler told the Italian po- litical commission the only reason the western powers suggested ex- panding the boundaries of Trieste hcyond the city limits was to “allow space for the deployment or armed forces." I-Ie urged the conference to push the boundaries oi the zone back to the city proz

The United States and other western powers, however. were i-olieved iirely to oppose a Pola rnrridor. At the same time the Slavic states, which have upport- rd much of the ‘Yugoslav argu- ments, were expected not to be too insistent upon abolition of a hroposed corridor westward from Triesteto Italy.

In the military commission it ivns disclosed that the Big Four powers currently are negotiating for the ultimate disposal of sur- plus Italian fleet uni-ts, as envis- ioned by the Foreign Ministers Council last June. The units in- rliids the battleships Guilio Ces- are. Italia and Vittorio Vento, five cruisers. seven destroyers. a sloop, stx torpedo boats, eight submar- ines and a host of auxiliaries and minor craft.

The commission already has agreed that the units to be re- ttiincd by Italy include two hattle- lhills. four cruisers, four destroy- crs. l6 torpedo boats. 20 corvette: and a number of minor craft.
