U S Demands UN Protect Greece From Red Foes
The United States won a decisive victory in a Balkan dispute and urged the United Nations to create a special committee to help end the conflict. Herschel V. Johnson, the U.S. delegate, pressed for a resolution naming Albania, Bulgaria, and Yugoslavia as aiding Greek guerrillas and called for ceasefire support and monitoring. The committee approved a U.S. plan to form a lean special body with major powers to oversee actions and potentially reconvene the assembly if danger rises. Johnson warned that inaction could threaten Greece and the UN itself, stressing the need to protect small states and uphold the UN charter.
