MAin 2-0531 Brooklyn Captain Among 3 Raised In Police Shakeup Deputy Inspector George J. Colgan, in charge of the homicide bureau in Brooklyn until yesterday, today was at his new post in the new 4-A district in Harlem, bending every effort to solve the Election Day murder of Joseph Scottoriggio. Inspector Colgan, formerly a captain, has figured prominently in several murder probes in Brooklyn. His was one of three promotions announced yesterday. These advancements, together with 22 transfers, constituted one of the most drastic police shakeups since the Arnold Rothstein gambling slaying.

Addressing those promoted at ceremonies in his office yesterday, Commissioner Wallander told the men: "The going will be rough and it will be tough on you men, but I have absolute confidence in you. You have done good work. You have been picked for your ability and on the basis of your past performances on the job. Those are the reasons for your promotion." The current shakeup was touched off by failure of police to unearth the Scottoriggio murderers. The latest development in the case is the possibility that District Attorney Frank S.

Hogan of New York County might be handed a subpoena by the House Election Frauds Committee. Representative Carl T. Curtis Neb.) has complained that Hogan has not co-operated with the House committee.

Wants Probe Of Balkans Row Continued from Page 1 took a day off from deliberations over a world atomic control plan. American officials who declined to be mentioned by name said they were "optimistic" over their chances for getting Soviet approval of the Baruch atomic energy program which the United States insists must become the basis for outlawing atomic weapons and developing atomic energy for beneficial purposes.

But this expression of confidence came hard on Soviet Representative Andrei Gromyko's assertion yesterday that he the Baruch plan is not in conformity, with the global disarmament blueprint adopted unanimously by the General Assembly only five days ago. Gromyko won more time yesterday to study Baruch's proposal that the American be wrapped into a forthcoming report which the plate atomic body must submit to the Security Council by Dec. 31. While Gromyko picked apart the Baruch proposal, saying it raised "many questions," American officials found his speech comparatively conciliatory and said it "leaves the door open" for eventual Soviet acceptance of the American plan. Jews, Arabs Seen Rejecting Partition Jerusalem, Dec.

18 (U.P)-Reliable sources predicted today that both Jews and Arabs would reject a British proposal to partition Jerusalem into three as an experiment for future partitioning of Palestine. Chief Justice Sir William Fitzgerald of the Palestine Supreme Court proposed the Jerusalem plan, it was understood, and it was expected to be published within a few days. Jews were said to oppose it because it does not envision a sovereign Jewish state. Arabs reportedly will reject the proposal because it "implies the future partitioning of all Palestine." members of the Arab higher committee reportedly have left for Egypt to confer with Haj Amin El Husseini, former grand mufti of Jerusalem, concerning the need for immediate action in the Holy Land.

MONTGOMERY ST. Tel. MAin Report Talks To Replace Franco Continued from Page left- wing or extreme -wing representatives in the govern" ment. The Government source indicated that British consultations with Spanish political leaders were continuing despite the decision to recall Sir Victor Mallet, the British Ambassador, in line with the U. N.

resolution. The source conceded that the consultations may be contrary to usual diplomatic customs but said Spain was a rather special case, since the British Government repeatedly has made known that it detests the Franco regime and hopes to see an interim coalition caretaker government replace him. Disclosed by Laborite Disclosure of the consultations was made only because Morgan Phillips, secretary of the Labor party, apparently inadvertently hinted at British action within Spain in his reply yesterday to rebel Laborites' criticism of British policy toward Franco. Phillips said, "Britain is the only Power in the world which is continuously working both inside and outside Spain for means of removing Franco. But we will not support gestures which have no positive results.

It is no use Britain imposing economic sanctions when an agreement with Argentina provides Franco with all he needs." Probers to Hear Bilbo Secretary Continued from Page to reporters that he will be seated and remain in the Senate. Differ On Death Threats Terry reported the alleged threats on his life in a letter the committee Dec. 2 in which asked to the be relieved from testifying in the Bilbo hearings. He sai dthe threats were made in anonymous telephone calls. But J.

M. Quin. Jackson. banker, told the committee he doubted that Terry actually feared being killed. "He's a native Mississippian." Quin said.

"We beat each other up down there but we don't shoot each other." Quin was called at the request of Bilbo's attorney to tell about Terry's accounts in the Jackson State National Bank of which Quin is president. The gifts, loans and contributions about which the committee wants to hear from Terry and Bilbo include: 1. A $25,000 contribution to Bilbo in 1942 for the re-election campaign of former Senator Wall Doxey 2. Construction of a lake, a swimming pool and an island "dream house" on Bilbo's Poplarville, estate. 3.

Donations for the Juniper Grove Baptist Church at Poplarville, for construction of a parsonage, which was built on Bilbo's land but never has been occupied because it still is unfinished. The Rev. D. Wade Smith, pastor of the church, testified that he built himself a small one-bath house on his nearby farm during the last four months of 1945 while the fiveparsonage remained unfinished. He said he used his veterans priority AS a former army chaplain to get materials for his small home.
