The United States was rebuffed 7 to 5 by a peace conference commission in Paris as it sought to cut Hungary’s reparations to Russia and two Slav neighbors from 300 million to 200 million dollars. The Russian-backed plan would allocate two thirds to Russia, 70 million to Yugoslavia, and 30 million to Czechoslovakia, while Britain and France sided with Russia. Greece and India abstained. Delegates then failed 14 to 6 on a French proposal to set up a new Free State of Trieste under UN security council control.
