Month Delay For UN Meet
Secretary General Trygve Lie drafts a message to Paul-Henri Spaak asking for assurance that the UN General Assembly be postponed beyond the four power ministers recommendation to move from Sept 23 to Oct 23. Russia China and France favor postponement and the United States and Britain would not oppose if all 51 members agree. Lie plans an early poll of membership as delays could take days and the assembly has already been postponed to avoid clashing with the Paris talks.

Speed Record Shatters with 616 MPH Jet Flight
London reports Group Captain Eo M Donaldson of the RAF set a world air speed record by reaching 616 miles per hour in a jet Gloster Meteor over Tabgmere Susse x, with a sister plane piloted by Wing Commander William Waterton of Bann ton breaking the existing mark an hour later. The prior record dated November 7 1945 stood at 106 mph. Measurements averaged over four runs between Little Bumpton and Worthing. The Royal Aero Club noted Waterton’s Canadian-born status but considered the British record likely, given nationality questions and registration for the attempt.
