U S backs Austria for Danube voice

Belgrade August 7 The United States warned that the Danube will stay split for traffic if eastern European communist states deny Austria a seat on the Danube control board. Ambassador Cavendish Cannon urged Austria's immediate party status while the Danubian conference voted 7 to 1 for a Soviet plan placing control in seven communist states. If Austria is excluded, the river remains divided at Linz with hundreds of Danubian vessels idle in American zones. Cannon cited German riparian interests and said the United States would represent German Danube interests until a sovereign German government is established. He noted Soviet deputy foreign minister Vishinsky rejected much of American proposals, signaling limited conference progress.
