A crowd of about 2,000 -, rsons prcljed against the high fences in front of Buckingham Palace when the bulletin was posted just before noon.

Earlier. the Queen. with Prin- cess Elizabeth and the Duke of Edinburgh. had driven through a heavy fog to the Lambeth Palace chapel where the Archbishop of Canterbury. Dr. Geoffrey Fisher, celebrated holy communion.

British subjects cluster at all hours about the ornate iron fence enclosing the forecourt of Buck- lll'!llillll Pnlace.

aneous but silent demonstration of the love Britons bear their royal family.

Explains Feelings

A woman in the crowd, who might have been a maid in a fine home. iumbled for words to explain why she was hanging around in a dismal rain. A

"The King and Queen. well they are something like your father and mother." she said. "They are al- ways there and somehow they are the head of the family. or course there is nothing personal about it and the King doesn't know I'm alive. But if I did meet him I know he would be the perfect English gentleman. kind. toncerned and interested in whether I get my pension."

The King's illness is the first topic of conversation throughout the land.

The BBC is being scolded round- ly in letters to newspapers because it has not been broadcasting med- lcal bulletins instantly.

Crowds at Buckingham Palace telephone all over town when a new bulletin is posted. The BBC hasn't explained but delays appar- ently have been due to reluctance to interrupt programs on the air.

Satui-day's bulletin said:

"Six days have now elapsed since the operation on the King. This has been a period free of complic- ations. His Majesty is gaining strength daily."

Another sign of growing optim- lam was Princess Margaret's de- parture Saturday for Scotland.

She told lnqulrers about the King's health before she left for balmoral: "it is all very good news."

Says Satire Lung Removed

The Sunday Express said today that the King had his entire left lung removed in last Sunday's op- eration.

The paper quoted no source for this information. The operation was officially described as one for "lung resection," and palace spokes- men withheld all further details.

The Sunday Express. publishing what it called "the full story of the anxious week," said'the King recovered consclousne Monday morning and "suddenly opened one eye and made a joke."

The Queen had seen her hus- band every morning since the op- eration and once sat by his bed- side until the early hours of the morning. when she first saw him

Officials-See Grave Danger Of Armed Clash

By Norman Aitatedter

UNITED NATIONS. N. Y.. Sept. 80-(C-P)-United Nations medi- ation of the explosive Iranian oil dispute was discussed by worried U. N. diplomats at urgent confer- ences today as a new way to set- tle the problem which Britain calls a threat to world peace.

Sir Gladwyn Jebb. Britain's lop delegate to the U. N., cut short a vacation and flew today from London, expecting to arrive here in time for an urgently-convened session of the U. 5. Security coun- cil at 3 p. in. EDT Monday.

Britain requested the session to hear her demand that the council over-rule Iran's order expelling by Oct. 4. (50 British technicians from the Abadan refinery area of the 1.-i00,000.000 Anglo-Iranian Oil Company.

Iran's ailing Prime Minister. Mohammad Mossadcgh. will fly to New York to argue Iran's case if the council decides it is com- petent to deal with the problem.

Officials in Tehran said today that Mossadegh-Iwho falnts and weeps in the midst of parlia-

mentary speeches but displays an iron will on the oil issue-will make his final decision on the trip after Monday's council sees- on

In the face of Britain's com- plaint to the U. N.. opposition deputies in the Iranian Mailis (parliament) today threw their support behind Mossadegh in a solid patriotic front-dor the dur- action of the U. N. debate. For the first time in three weeks, oppos- ition deputies attended he Maills. dropping the boycott hich pre- vented 'Mossadegh's getting a vote of confidence.

Officials here expressed belief that Britain's move to bring the dispute before the U. N. narrow- ly-and perhaps only temporarily -averted an Anglo-Iranian clash which might set off a war in the Middle East.

Truce Talks llemain Stalled

TOKYO. Oct. 1 - (Monday) - UP) - Gen. Omar Bradley, pre- paring for a flying visit to Korea. expressed hope Sunday that an armistice still could be achieved but conceded that it depends on the Communists.

The Reds remained silent on

the Allied proposal of last Thurs- day to move the truce talks from Communist-held Kaesong to no- man's land. near the village of Songhyon six miles to the south- east. . Whether negotiations will end if the Reds reject that proposal "will depend on the nature of their an- siver." Bradley said.

The chairman of the United States Joint Chiefs of Staff. here for conferences with Gen. Mat- thew B. Ridgway, made his re- marks at a press conference. The Reds suspended the truce talks Aug. 23. charging Allied violation of the Kaesong neutral acne.
