Occupation Army Cut
Set To 100000 Men

BERLIN, Aug. 3o-R-General
Eisenhower said today that the
2, 500, 900 American troops now in
Germany would be reduced to a
fixed occupation force OF about
400, 600 well before the end OF the
winter.
The American commander said
the importation Of food from the
United States to feed Germans was
inescapable, but that he did not
mean he intended to fatten the
Germans.
He said he hoped to have the
Germans elect their own officials
in city and rural areas this fan.
Eisenhower declined to predict
how long the Allied occupation OF
Germany would last, saying this
was a matter of higher govern.
ment policy, but added that the
Americans did not expect to stay
here forever.
He said the intensity of mutual
suspicion among Allied powers in
Germany was giving way in the
face of frankness and honesty. He
said his recent trip to Russia re.
vealed to him many things that
showed remarkable planning for
the welfare of the masses.

SOMEWHERE IN THE PA
CIFIC (Delayed)-The big Ma
rine transport plane speared its
way through dark clouds, wind
and rain, flying an unchartered
course over enemy territory TO
deliver flame throwers to the
hard-pressed Marines on Palau.
Seven hours ago it rose from
a secret Pacific base into the
tropic night and began the long
flight over water route that
no American plane had travers-
ed before. Ordinarily, in such
weather, the flight would have
been cancelled; but the Marines
on Palau desperately needed the
flame throwers.
They had been flown from the
States upon. urgent request. This
was the last lap-a job for
SCAT. the South Pacific Com
bat Air Transport unit operated
by Marine airmen.
The pilot, Maj. Theodore W..
Sanford, Jr.. Kansas City, Mo-,
looked at his watch. 1t was a
little before Z o'clock in the
morning-and the plane was
due in at 7 that evening. Sgt
Charles M. Wilson, New York
City, sweated over his instru-
ments in the tiny navigator'S
compartment.

Peleliu, and not one of the Pa
lau islands still held by the
Japs.
Major Sanford sent and re-
ceived the proper signals and
set the plane down neatly on
the Peleliu strip, just as another
rain storm began. Four thou
sand pounds Of flame throwers
were at their destination, after
being flown some 10000 miles
in five days.
Grateful Marine infantrymen
hurriedly unloaded the cargo
and sped toward the front lines.
AS the plane stood by to take
on wounded and other passen-
gers for the return trip, the
crew watched the flame throw
