United Nations assembly backs British troop inventory plan
In Lake Success on Nov 27 the UN General Assembly committee overrode Soviet objections to back a British proposal on an international troop inventory and related disarmament steps. The vote split 33 to 17 on the two issues, with France and other Big Five members voting against the British provisions in parts, while the rest approved. France and Russia opposed early paragraphs on the inventory and on reports for troops at home and abroad, and the panel approved later bearish provisions for enemy and allied bases and wartime guard needs. U.S. and Britain urged a broader data scope, including home troops, against Moletov’s stance. Elsewhere in Athens, reports said Greece was reinforcing along frontiers with Yugoslavia as clashes near Skra-Avia intensified, with troops moving toward Edessa and Master while partisans controlled Maurer and Mardahalen after an all-day fight.
