ITALIAN PACT BELIEVED NEAR

Big Five Calls Interested

Nations to Parley.

By EDWARD V. ROBERT United Press Staff Correspondent LONDON, Sept. 15.—Well informed observers said today that the Big Five's. foreign ministers appeared in substantial agreenient on all major factors of the ‘Italian peace treaty. They based their belief largely upon the council's decision to call in representatives of the British Dominions, Yugoslavia and Italy. They pointed out that it has always been understood among diplomatic circles that Italy would not be summoned until the ministers had outlined definite terms to place before her representative. The Yugoslav government swiftly accepted the Big Five's invitation. A spokesman in London an-

- nounced that a delegation was

leaving Belgrade today and would arrive in London tomorrow. Minister May Come It was generally believed that Gen. Vladimir Velebit, undersecretary for foreign affairs in the present Tito government, would lead the delegation. Count Niccolo Carandini, Rome's unofficial ambassador to London, was considered Italy’s most likely choice . for appearing before the council but there were also reports that Foreign Minister Dr. Alcidg de Gasper might come ‘himself. The Italo-Yugoslav border differences have substantially .narrowed down to sovereignty over Trieste. Both were agreeable to interpationalization of the port. Meanwhile the continued arrival of top-flight American palitical and diplomatic talent indicated that the United States delegation is preparing for a tough battle when the council turns to Balkan peace treaty questions. Russian Oil Deal Secretary of the Interior Harold Ickes’ arrival, accompanied by Amerjcan ofl experts, coincided with the revelation of an extensive Russian oil deal with the unrecognized Renner government in Austria.’ It was a deal of which neither the British nor Americans apparently had any previous knowledge and upon which they almost certainly looked with disfavor, American Secretary of State James F. Byrnes has conferred dur ing the past two days with Ameri-

ans and eastern Europe, obviously

bates: U. S. Ambassador to Poland Arthur Bliss Lane flew to. London yesterday to talk with Byrnes and presumably gave a full report upon Poland's economic problems and the increasingly difficult political situation in Warsaw. There was no indication that the United States, is finding fault with the reasonably mild peace terms advocated by Russia for Balkan exenemy countries,

Of Nazi Setup.

BUENOS AIRES, Sept. 15 (U. P)). —U. 8. Ambassador Spruille Braden exhorted the Argentine people last night -to take “positive action” to root out fascism in Argentina. Nowhere outside of Europe have the Nazis so strongly entrenched themselves as they have in Argentina, Braden said, in what probably was his last public speech before returning to the United States to become assistant secretary of state, His talk followed by only a few hours Argentine Vice President Col. Juan D. Peron’s proclamation to the army admitting that a revolutionary movement to overthrow his govern» ment was gaining momentum, Braden tqld an audience at the Argentine social museum that the . present Argentine government act- . ed too late, both in declaring war against the axis and in implementing it by concrete anti.-Pascist

* measures,

“Naturally, this situation allowed the Nazis to concentrate their ef forts in this country,” he said. “Their agents established theme selves in Argentina, . , . “This is a serious threat to the security of the countries of the Americas, to our democratic way of life and, above all, to the principles sustained in common by the Argentine people and by the peoples of all other American nations. “I expect and trust the Argentine people will eliminate that threat soon.”

Dear Fellows—

A major crime wave is making headlines in the home-town, . . When local police ¢ ‘were unable to quell the crime epidemic despite increased vigilance, a detachment of military police from Camp Atterbury were summoned for nightly patrol duty. . , . Then Mayor Tyndall mobilized 100 uniformed, trained auxiliary police to pound beats in pairs, supplementing the squad cars. , , . A flood of sluggings, stickups, burglaries and assaults involving both civilians and service men has aroused the local populace. . . , The violence was climaxed by the murder of Willlam Raeber, proprietor of a grocery at 4102 E. Washington st, during an attempted day-time holdup. . .”. Two previous slayings in the past two weeks are still unsolved. . , Dozens were victimized in unprovoked assaults, among them Dr, Harry Baum, instructor at the Indiana university medical school. , . . In some cases rewards have been posted. , . . Hoodlums hit a new low by looting two child piggy banks, stealing a man's false teeth from a - parking lot filing cabinet and trying to quiet a spaniel pup by dunking him in a bathtub of a burglarized home. . . . Five men were arrested on charges of stealing three tons of sugar (it's scarce here at home) from the Omar Baking Co. . , Thieves took $1850 from the bedroom of a N. Dearborn street home while the occupants were playing cards in the front room. The Marion county grand jury will probe a visionary plan to build homes for returning G. I.s on small down payments, . . . Testimony shows dis charged soldiers have paid $7080 in down payments, but no homes have been started.
