LAKE SUCCESS. N.Y.. Nov. T—- (QPI - Canada's External Affairs Minister today told the United

closed to any possible basis of east-west agreement on interna- flonsl control of atomic energy.

LB. Pearson said that unless Russia and the United States work out a plan for controlling atomic weapons. there will be an atomic arms race "with no winner."

His 23-minute address before the ISO-member special political com- mittee of the UN. Assembly, at the opening of a tense debate on al.- omlc control, was described by vet- eran observers as the most forth- right on the problem in U.N. hia- tory.

“The recent atomic explosion in the Soviet Union points up dramatically the validity of the thesis that security can be found only in effective international cnn- trol." Pearson said. while smaller powers in the UN. expressed ln- creased Anxiety over lack of Easi- West agreement on the problem.

Hits At Russia

Pearson hit at Russian objec- tfons to the majority plan for con- trol approved by the Assembly last year. He said the Russian claims that the plan's limitations on na- tlonal sovereignty would be a sac- rifice by any state are "absurd." and Russian provisions for lnpec- tlon in their control proposals are "simply not good enough."

At the outset of the debate, Can- ada and France submitted s joint resolution which includes a call to all countries to do "everything in their power to make possi the acceptance of sffcctlv national control. the effective pro- hibition and elimination of atomle weapons."

Supported by Britain and the United States. the resolution makes these provisions:

l. Urges all countries to join in a oo-operative development and use of atomic energy for peaceful ends.

2. Calls on rill governments to do everything possible to bring about elimination of nt-

- omic weapons.

3. Requests the Big Five and Canada to continue their talks seekln/r a basi: of agreement.

4. Recommends that all coun- tries loin in a mutual agree- ment to renounce "inrlivldua' exercise of such rights of sov- ereignty in the control of at- omit: energy rs are .. . incom- patible with the promotion of world security :nd pesos."

Sir Benegal Rau of India also submitted n resolution to the coni- mittce. He would have the assem- bly call on the International Law Commission to frame s declaration on the duties of states in connec- tion with atomic energy to ensrue its use for peaceful purposes and to secure elimination of atomic weapons.

Soviets Move To Tighten Grip On Eastern Europe

Guided Missiles

By WES GALLAGHER

BERLIN, Nov. 7 -- (APl-Rus. sin today installed Soviet military chiefs in two iop jobs in an ef- fort to insure that no one chal- lenges her grip on Eastern Europe.

This is the interpretation placed by Western military men on the appointments of Marshal Konstan- tin Rokossovsky of the Soviet Army as Polish Minister of De- fence and Gen. Vassily Chuikov as chief of the Soviet Control Commission for Eastern Germany.

The moves place two of Rus- sia's prominent soldiers on the front where Soviet troops rub elbows with Western troo s ‘ r"rhe-'anr'ei.~t<'-'ilfie‘gor that

communications r front. It is expected that Rokossovsky

with

forces but also retain over-all con- trol of Sovle-t forces in Eastern

commander of the Soviet Western Armies.

Russia's most direct line of communications between the homeland and its 300.000 advance troops in Germany runs through Poland.

The appointment of Chuikov also is interpreted as a _step to keep a tight military rein on Eastern Germany despite installa- tion of a puppet Communist re- gime which has been "recogniz- ed’ by Moscow by an exchange of diplomatic representative:-

Tough Military Mu:

Chuikov is a rough. tough mill- tary man with no flare for polities and a reputation of deviating not an inch from Kremlin orders

Moreover. his chief political ad- viser will continue to be Vladi- mir Seminov of the Rad Military Government.

These Russian moves coincided with the announcement by the American High Commissioner. John J. McCioy. that he has invit- ed Siate Secretary Acheson of the United States to visit Germany after his meetln-g in Paris this week with the French and British Foreign Ministers. Acheson is un- derstood t9 ba considering mak- ing the visit. '

James F. Byrnes ivas the last

United States Secretary of State to visit Germany. That was Sevi- 0. 1940. when Byrncs forrnlll! 1'8- cognlzed the split between East and West in Germany by a policy speech which led eventually to formation of a TVest-Germsn re_- puibllc at Bonn.

May Affect

(By Harold Morrison) , OTTAWA, Nov. 7—-(CP)-— The Iboost in rental ceilings which before

Canadians living in rented rooms, flats, apartments and houses, Gov- ernment officlals estimated today.

The officials based this estimate on n rental survey which showed that approximately 1..">00.000 flats, apartments and houses across the country could be the target for the 20 and 25 per cent increases in rents.

Other Government estimates:

1. That at least 90 per cent

of leased accommodation in the large urban nrcns is rent- ed on a month-io-month basis. Tenants in ‘this category will be among the first to be hit by the authorized hikes. ‘ 2. Some of this type of IC- commoclatlon is rented on a weekly and not a monthly basis and thnt mean: that only a week's notice-not a month -need be given by the land- lord.

3. In most. cases. however. the rental increases will not 8o into effect before Feb. 1. 1950. Tenants renting on a monthly basis will have to re- ceiv: a month's notice a: from Dec. 31.

4. If the Government had lifted the controls completely to meet the wishes of Cln- ads’: landlords, urban rental: in the big clile: would have increased by approximately 100 per cent. '

5. Taking into consideration both rursl and urban areas, the new ceiling: Itnerally are considered to be about 25 per cent below the level which would prevail if the regula- tlons had been removed corn-

But One Million Persons P a r a d e In Red Square Ta I4 a r k Revolution.

By Eddy Gihnoq

MOSCOW. Nov. '1 —(AP) -Sov- let Russia. today saluted the 1917 revolution with a traditional mil- itary demonstration and a gigantic parade of a million persons thmugn Red Square.

Maj. E. K. Walters, acting Anteri- can air attache. said the military show included “a fine display of first-line air equipment." But fol- eign military observers agreed the Russians had put less emphasis than usual on the military side of the observance of the 32nd an- nlversary.

Prime Minister Stalin's son. Lt.- Gen. Vasily Stalin. led a squadron of fighter planes over the square in a. procession that included 22 four- engitred bombers and 91 jet fight- ers.

L. H. Randall, Canadian air at- tache. commented that "I saw very little new and certainly less em- phasis on the military angle."

The military parade. formed by Moscow garrison troops and led by massed drums and cymbals. began after l0 a.m. and was over before 11 a.m.

It was viewed by Marshal Alex- ander M. Vasilevsky. Minister of the Armed Forces. and by a group of Soviet leaders.

These leaders were headed by Vlce-Pretniers V.M. Molotov. former Foreign Minister. and Georgi M. Malenkov. who yesterday threaten- ed in an anniversary speech that a new world blood bath would spell the end of capitalism.

A parade of workers immediately followed the military demonstration. More than 1,000,000 marched through Red Square for five hours.

At the end. 20 artillery sa-lvoes were fired in salute.

In an order of the day Vasilevsky charged that "imperialists and war- mongﬂs" are inciting "provocat- eurs. spies and their loyal lackeys. the right-wing Socialists and the base Tito gang" in preparations for aggression and a new war.

He called on the armed forces to “constantly improve their military skill." stand everlastingly on
