NEW YORK, Nov. 5 (P—For-
eign diplomats deeply engrossed
in the gigantic task of building
world peace kept a sharp but dis-
creetly silent watch on the Ameri-
can congressional elections today.
There has been enough political
controversy over the present
American attitude toward Russia
in particular to raise speculation
about post-war election trends in
the conduct of American diplo-
macy.
The Big-Four foreign ministers
moved into their second day’s
work on the eastern European
peace treaties amid mounting evi-
dence that Russian Foreign Minis-
ter Molotov will stage a last ditch
fight to gain special advantages
for Yugoslavia at the Adriatic
port of Trieste.
The U. N. assembly appeared to
be headed for a wide open fight
over selection of a permanent
home. One report was that the
Russians might reverse their for-
mer stand against a site in west-

League of Nations headquarters,

Long Island, the foreign ministers
of America, Britain, Russia and
France, meeting in a Manhattan
hotel, rapidly came to grips with
the basic issues of making peace
in Europe. Their second session
was scheduled for 3:30 p. m.
Initial routines were quickly
dispensed with. The Big Four de-
cided to take up the Italian peace
treaty first and then, in order,
treaties with Romania, Bulgaria,
Hungary and Finland.
These treaties were originally
drafted by the Big Four.
Discussion had hardly begun on
the Italian treaty yesterday when
the Trieste issue was raised, em-
phasizing the split between Rus-
sia and the western powers.
