A United Press dispatch from Moscow yesterday said the junction already had occurred, but a staff officer for the American first army denied the report. First army quarters expected the junction today. Marshal Ivan S. Konev's first Ukrainian army closed up to or near the Elbe river opposite the American first army along a 54mile front yesterday. Grossenhain, 15 miles northwest of Dresden, was captured by the Soviets. Konev's army linked up witli Marshal Gregory K. Zhukov's first White Russian army in eastern Berlin yesterday. Together they cleared 12 more districts of 'he city to bring 180 of Berlin’s 332 square miles under Soviet control. Zhukov's forces also whipped 1.5 miles around the northern outskirts of Berlin and cut the capi-1 tai's last railway and super-! highway to Hamburg and the ; northern redubt along the North ; Sea. They pushed to within three; miles of a secondary, roundabout ' railway to Hamburg after capturing Nauen, 23 miles due west 1 ot the center of Berlin. Soviet accounts indicated the i Germans still held a Id-mile-wide corridor open west of Berlin yes- ' terday. lint it was being churned > into a death trap by a deluge of ‘ shells and bombs. —o — Loan Supervisor To Accept Applications Alan L.

TRUSTEESHIP (Continued From Page One) I of the senate foreign relations eomi ! mittee, eaid the formula would diI vide Japanese holdings into two genera! classifications and provide the following methods to disposiL I tlon: .! 1. Ar as which have only military J value, such as the great Japanese, i | bastion at Truk—the I.'. S. plan J would allow the nation holding the . "trusteeship" of such an island to retain complete control. 2. Areas which have economic , and commercial value as well as military interests, such as Palau or the western Carolines which have phosphate and bauxite depos- ; itis—the nation holding the trustee.ship would be responsible jointly with the international organization for administration. Thie would in fact be a trusteeship granted by the world organization. There will be no .sipecific assignment of trusteeships at this coirference; that will be don? at the later I peace conference which will reI draw the map of the world.

But the 300-odd delegates find an inspirational text in the ( late president's words on the oc- | casion of his last public appearance lon March 1. He then told a joint . sernion of the congress: The structure of world peace ; cannot be the work of one man. one party or one nation. It must be a peace-which rests upon the I co-operative effort of the whole world j' in that spirit these delegates ap ( preached the differences raised i among them. Their goal is to pre- ( pare “ a charter for a general in- ! ternational organization for the ; maintenance of international peace j and security. ■’ The United States, Great Brit- ■ ain. the Soviet Union and China jointly on March 5 invited the 41 other members of the United Nations to meet here today for that purpose. Last autumn in the Dum-

barton Oaks conference, the sponsoring powers devised a tentative charter for the world security, organization. It is the basis upon which the delegates begin their work today. This is not a peace conference-.: like the World Wor I Veraaillee conference —at which the fate of the vanquished Slid the will of the victors is to be written into a formal compact. This conference has only one purpose. That is to draft a charter for collective action to safeguard peace. That charter ultimately will be submitted to various United Nations for ratification. In the United States it will be. submitted by Mr. Truman to the senate. The propoeed world security organization will not be called a League of Nations. But it is similar in purpose and outline to the, luckless league which was conceived during World War 1 by. Woodrow Wilson.

Red Cross Exceeds 200 Million Quota Chairman .Basil OVonnor of the American Red Cross today thanked the nation for its generous overst.ii.'seription of the 1915 Red Cross war fund goal of $200.0011,000 and announced that a total of $2'19,075,000 had been reported contributed to da'te. •"This total ..represents the greatest response, to any campaign in the eii'tire history of the Red Cross," Mr. 0 1 Connor: said, '‘ it demonstrates the desire of the American people to help their set vicemen and to prat.ct the home front when disaster ••.?‘rikc«." Mr. O'Connor added tha: 19tj contributions broke the all'tioie record of the previous year's campaign, in which more than $-216,000,000 was raised. i.Mr. O'Connor said the Red Croiss would be carrying a gr ater load during the coming twelve months, irrespective of the turn of events in Europ.an war zones. — —,, —,, — ( Trade in a Good Town — Decatur
