Other Proposals, His other proposals included LAKE SUCCESS, July 8. (AP) -Russia today demanded United Nations action to get all foreign military personnel out of Greece and renewed her efforts to place the American aid to Greece under U.

N. supervision. These were major points in a resolution Soviet Deputy Foreign Minister Andrei A. Gromyko laid before the security council as his solution for the Balkan disorders. Earlier, Gromyko declared that no plan for world arms reduction can succeed unless the plan is linked directly with an absolute prohibition of atomic weapons.

The Soviet delegate demanded that the council find Greece guilty the of provoking disorders with three Soviet Balkan satellites-Albania, Bulgaria and Yugoslaviaand make a long series of recommendations to the Greek government to end the disturbances. Gromyko's proposals clashed directly with the findings of the Balkan investigating commission the United States proposing and a resolution offered. BY. commission to watch over the trouble zone. A majority of the commission found Albania, Yugoslavia and Bulgaria to blame for the disorders.

Although Gromyko made no direct mention of American aid. it was obvious that his proposals were aimed at the "Truman trine" and at British troops sta- these: 1. That Greece should take measures to stop border incidents. 2. That she should establish normal diplomatic relations with each of her three neighbors.

That the four Balkan should enter into bilateral frontier conventions for, a settlement of border incidents. Gromyko's introduced his resolution at the conclusion of a vigorous defense of the three Soviet satellites. Russia lost another round in her continuing fight to link general arms reduction questions directly with the proposed prohibition of atomic weapons but told the security council that she would not comply with its majority decision. The big-power veto was not invoked as the council approved an A arms American-sponsored discussions despite blueprint Russian for insistence that the plan would bring about a collapse of arms regulation efforts. The vote was 9 to 0, with Russia and Poland abstaining.

Russia then told the council that she would not he bound by the United States resolution but would pursue the line laid down in her own proposals which seek to link the general arms reduction question with proposed prohibition of atomic weapons. In view of Russia's firm stand against the United States plan it had been believed she might invoke the big power veto to block it. TINY TARZAN- Nineoid Johnny T. Marsigiler Jr. of Marlboro, N.

In announcing the completion of a contract covering more than half of his 400,000 United Mine workers, Lewis told reporters it is "reasonable to assume" the entire industry will accept the agreement within a few days.
