German Arms Issue Alarms Reds Mexico's Laredo
USSR Sets Record In Notes Of Protest
Bv CHARLES M. McCANN
United Press Foreign Analyst
Russia is setting a record in
sending out notes of protest in con-
nection with the arming of West-
ern Germany and the Allied de-
fense set-up in Europe in general.
Within the last five days, Rus-
sia has dispatched something like
18 notes, some threatening, some
complaining, to 16 different coun-
tries.
Two of the notes, to France and
Great Britain, threatened to de-
nounce friendship treaties con-
cluded during World War II if the
treaties, to arm Western Germany
are ratified.
Two more, to the United States
and Britain, protested bitterly
against a statement by an Ameri-
can Air Force general who im-
plied strongly, if he did not actual-
ly say, that his Britain - based
planes could carry an atomic
bombing attack to the Soviet Un-
ion.
Fourteen countries in all, it is
indicated, got notes complaining
because they turned down the
Kremlin’s recent invitation to at-
tend an ’’all-European security”
conference in Moscow. This con-
ference as intended to sabotage
German armament plans.
In addition to all this Marshal
Georgi K. Zhukov, Russia's fore-
most soldier, loosed a blast ac-
cusing Prime Minister Winston
Churchill and Field Marshal Vis-
count Montgomery of wartime
treaoherv.
This stemmed from Churchill's
statement that at the end of World
War II he ordered Montgomery to
stack captured German arms in
case German aid was needed in
stopping the westward sweep of
the Red army through Europe.
Churchill later said he wasn't sure
he issued the order, but Montgom-
ery insisted he did.
What the notes add up to is that
the Soviet government is almost
desperately alarmed at the pros-
John D. Stevenson, commanding
the UN 49th air division based in
Britain.
Friday night Moscow started
sending out its notes complaining
Norway, Iceland, Italy, Greece
and Turkey.
Five more went to non-NATO
members—Sweden, Finland, Swit-
zerland, Austria and Yugoslavia.
Monday, Russia threatened to

bitterly because none but Soviet denounce its 1942 friendship
satellite countries accepted the in- treaty with Britain,
vitation to-the Moscow conference. So far the Kremlin hasn't said
Nine of these notes, a survey of anything about the American
capitals indicated, went to NATO atomic cannon and ‘honest ‘john’’
members — Belgium, the Nether- artillery rocket now based in Eu-
iands, Luxembourg, Denmark, rope. But it must be thinking hard.

to be completed across the Rio
Grande and In operation sometime
during the first half of January.
Work on the access road from the
Mexican side was in its third day
Wednesday, and Ignacio Garagarza
an engineer sent by the communi-
cations ministry in Mexico City to
be in charge of the project, said he
hopes to have it completed early
next month.
Meanwhile, the Laredo city coun-
cil gave final authority Tuesday for
issuance of $300,000 in revenue
bonds for its share of the cost of
rebuilding the permanent bridge
over the Rio Grande.
Mayor J. C. Martin Jr., said the
bonds will be sold at competitive
bidding, pursuant to advertisement.
No bid will be accepted at an in-
terest rate to exceed 2 1-2 per cent
annually.
The bonds are to be sold at the
time the joint contract is let by
the city of Laredo and the Mexican
government for the bridge construc-
tion, slated for January.
The final draft of the agreement
between the city and the Mexican
government for reconstruction of
the permanent bridge was deliver-
ed to Martin this week by Luis Guz-
man Garduna, director" general of
projects and laboratories of the
