Austria

SO per cent of the population is
Catholic. the Ministry of Education
and Religion plays a very impor-
tant role, particularly if the pro
tector nation Russia in this case
desires to bring about changes in
the country's social system.
Thus, in the opinion of the British
government, which is keeping close
watch on what is going on in Gen.
trail Europe and knows the personal
tiles involved. the new Austrian gov
eminent, while on the surface, ap-
parently a national organization, is
in fact Just another MoscoW-spon-
sored government very much like
the governments of Bulgaria. Yugo-
slavia, Romania and Hungary.
Occupation Agreement.
There are indications that pro-
tracted conversations are now being
carried on regarding the occupation
of Austria by the forces of the Big
Three.
At Yalta, it is said, there was an
agreement about the zones to be
occupied by each of the armies of
crate Vienna before their western
Great Britain.
1t so happened that the Russian
forces were able to reach and lib
crate Vienna before their Western
Allies. But there is definite agree
ment that Vienna itself shall be
divided into three parts with one to
be placed under the control of each
of the liberating armies.
The Russians, who are now In
complete control of the Austrian
capital, have drawn the lines in
such manner that airflelds of the
city are all in their own zone. Since
communications by land are not
easy, and the apportioning of
Vienna gives the Red armies all the
airports, some unwelcome situations
may result, as was the case at Te-
heran when the British and the
Russians shared the only available
airfleld.
Acting Secretary Of State Grew
told reporters here yesterday only
that the matter was being taken up
with Moscow. Meanwhile, the State
Department is withholding recog-
milton of the new Austrian regime.
The Associated Press reported
from London that official, circles
there were resentful over the fact
that Great Britain had not been
consulted in advance about estab-
lishment of the new Vienna regime
A British Foreign Office spokesman
said the question of recognition had
not yet arisen officially. but that it
was being given careful study.
Great Britain was notified by
Russia of the proposed establish
ment of the new government, which
includes Communists, on the eve of
the public announcement of its
formation, the dispatch said. London
was not given time to consult on
the matter with other interested
governments, it added.
A Tass dispatch from Vienna to
Moscow today said the new govern
ment took Office yesterday.
Mr.. Grew said the United States
was notified by Russia on April "a
that the formation of a provisional
government had been proposed by
DR.. Renner and that the Soviet gov
ernment was not disposed to hinder
this development.
Mr.. Grew added that he had seen
press reports from Moscow saying
that the regime actually had been
formed, but that the State Depart
ment had not yet been notified Of
flcially to this effect.

DR.. Ira N. Gabrielson, ma

Tuesday assured Imperial

as far as possible with funds
and authority to put over a game
management program designed to
prevent ducks from destroying
crops.
This statement was made in FL

1--WE are interested in a program
which will result in an effective So
luton of the controversy and diff
ferences between farmers and
Sportsmen," DR.. GabrielSon said.
1--WE want to be fair to both sides
and believe the game management
program worked out this year by
farmers and E. E. Horn, head of
game depredatlonS work Tor the
federal fish and wildlife service is a
soluticn." He warned the farmers
that there will be some crop loss
however, as long as there are ducks.
1.-The farmers OF this valley don't
favor any program which will re-
suit in a menace to sanctuaries or
refugees" William Bailey, farmer,
said. I'VE favor a flexible program
which will make it possible to open
the refuge or sanctuaries to shooting
when the duck population gets too
great and our crop losses mount.
They can be closed to shooting if
the duck population drops enough
to worry hunters. If the federal or
state wildlife services acquire any
land in Imeprial Valley for game
management purposes" Bailey ex-

prisoner of war train which the
Germans were trying to move
closer to Berlin in the face of
the 1st army's lightning ad-

were jammed into freight cars

QUICK THINKING
I heard the story Wednesday

dents of the war from an Amer

a stretcher in a hospital. The
quick thinking of the officers
who ordered the men to strip
eff their shirts and get into for
nation to spell out the letters
POW saved many lives. So did

of whom held their formation
in the face Of expert and terrify-

the men who were in the for
nation, only one broke and
ran for cover, the lieutenant

Eventually the Allied pilots
