RUSSIANS FAIL 10 REPLY YES ORNO TO PLAN
Soviet Bloc Defeated on Complaint Against Greece, Britain.
By ROBERT. J. MANNING United Press Staft Correspondent LAKE SUCCESS, N. Y., Sept. 21. ~ The complete reorganization of Europe's economy was recommended to the United Nations today as perhaps the only way of putting the war devastated continent back on its feet. - The temporary subcommission on economic reconstruction of devastated areas handed the economic and social council a huge blueprint
+ for a new European economy which,
if achieved in its entirety, would fuse the economies of the European nations. The economic and social council got this report the day after the security council had wiped the Soviet. Ukraine's charges against Greece and Britain off its agenda. New Dispuie Due Monday On Monday, the security council vill meet to debate another controversial -issue between Russia and the. west—the Soviet request fdr an inventory of all armed forces maintained by the allies. in foreign countries other than the ex-enemy states, The dispute over Greece ended | in a defeat for Russia in a rapidfire series of votes. After three weeks of debate, the security coun-| cil dropped the case without any action whatever. The report on economic reconstruction held out strong hope that much of its revolutionary program could be achieved. Agreed on Parts of Plan
Some of the officials who prépared it reported that all the governments of Europe from Russia to Britain felt that parts of the plan should be started soon to avert a growing post-war trend to economic nationalism and a recurrence of the economic unrest which helped touch off world war II. The 20-nation subcommission proposed informally an economic commission for Europe. It would be the core of an ambitious attempt to eliminate nationalistic trade practices, reallocate the manpower of Europe, rehabilitate the continent's transport system and fuse into a single pattern the post-war reconstruction programs planned y individual European govern-
ments. All European members of the United Nations and the United
States in addition, would be members of the permanent commission. The proposal was not submitted as a formal recommendation because three of the 20 nations on the subcommission, including Russia, have not finally approved it. Six Recommendations Made
The 450-page report made these far-reaching recommendations: ONE: A permanent international housing agency to attack the problem of mapping expanded housing as well as reconstructing that damaged in war areas of the world. TWO: An agency to co-ordinate Europe's power resources, Wrap them into a single continent-wide power system, and plan the development of numerous projects like the United States’ Tennessee Valley administration. THREE: A program aimed to accelerate the financing of urgent export and import programs vital to the reconstruction work planned by European governments in 1947, FOUR: A system for state ‘food eollection programs. and premium payments to food producers to step up European food production and et it moved to the city dwellers { the continent,
FIVE: An allocation of manpower under which surplus labor in such countries as Greece and Yugoslavia would be moved to laborshort countries like France. This would require the establishment of “manpower budgets” in the capitals of Europe. SIX: Method for stepping up European coal production — the heart of the continent's industrial reconstruction problem—by insuring equitable distribution and providing mining areas with the machinery and trained personnel they require. Many Obstacles Seen Countless obstacles stood in the way of implementing these recommendations, and many more revolutionary proposals in the report, according to some of the officials involved in the subcommittee's work. The program would require unhedrd of restrictions in the economic and political sovereignty of European countries and a high degree of good will and trust between the western countries and those of the Russian orbit, they pointed out.

By MARGUERITE SMITH WOMEN USUALLY are good allaround gardeners, but it takes the men to specialize. And the men are showing us some fine dahlias today and tomorrow when the Indianapolis Dahlia society opens its show at the Brookside community house. It also will include a fall flower festival in which the women participate. Hours today are from 3 to 9, tomorrow from 10 to 7. Here's what a few of the exhibitors have learned about raising dahlias.

Possibly the man with the biggest housing problem in town is a navy cross veteran whose wife bore him twins at the precise moment when their lease terminated. . . “Ineligible” tenants now occupy more than a third of the Lockfield Garden apartments, government housing unit, because their family incomes exceed the $500-a-year limit, but they'll be allowed to - stick. . . One veteran told a Marion county judge he intends to go back to Europe because conditions are too tough in Indian-_ apolis. , , . The city is virtually meatless and butchers, hot dog dispensers, university
