But that won't cost Policeman
Canyon money-maybe.
Inspector Clement P. Cox, police
property clerk, declared that who
ever feeds the calf will be reim-
bursed by the District government
from the proceeds of the auction
But, he added, If the calf does not
bring in enough money to pay for
all the meal and bran it has eaten
the District government will have
to pay the difference. r.

the difference" may come from
Inspector Cox did not say.
Another little item that is going
to have to be paid from the auction
proceeds is legal advertising In
newspapers, announcing the event
And, Of course, the auctioneer will
have to be paid a fee for his work
But wait, that's not all:
The Police Property Office also
must obtain ceiling price on the
calf from the Once of Price Ad-
miniStration before the auction be-
gins. And whoever buys the ami
NAL is going to have to put up
enough red points to cover the
potential meat, If it is to be used
for human consumption.
An OPA official said that about
900 points would be involved in the
transaction under dressed-beef reg
ulations. He added that the buyer
also will have to get a permit from
OPA to kill the animal, which is
believed to be a purebred Hereford

closed today.
Another 100000 to 225, 200 Ameri-

With nearly 100000 prisoners in
the United States and another 25,00C
in Britain, Col. Gill estimated II
would take at least nine months to
cut the total figure to 100000 by
various means, some of which still
have not yet been decided upon.
Col. Gill reiterated previous state.
ments of high American military
authorities that German prisoners
would be permitted" to remove
land mines but declined further
comment on that subject.
Rules Based on Convention.
He emphasized, however, that al
plans for employment of prisoners ir
the rehabilitation of battered
Europe were based on rules of the
Geneva Convention despite the fact
the German Government-whi
was a signatory of the convention
has ceased to exist.
About 100000 Germans now helC
by Americans in three prison camps
north of Cologne will be turned over
to the British when occupation zones
are definitely established, Col. Gill
said.
The captives to be turned over tc
France now are held in seven en-
closures in France, he said, adding
they will come under complete
charge OF the French Just as II
French armies had captured them
Col. Gill also disclosed that abou,
l8 per cent of the total bag Of
prisoners would be discharged anc
sent nome under a plan to turr
loose all miners. farmers, trans.
port workers, women prisoners anc
men over so years of age who art
not suspected of war crimes. These

There are 10000 wounded German

Food, of course, is Berlins great

When the Red Army entered
Berlin, the population was on the

has been met by hurrying in food
from outlying districts, from beyond
the borders of Germany, and even
from the Soviet Union itself.

Downtown Berlin looks like nothing

Both his legs we're cut off and his

A report that circus meal ticket

that strikes you is the fantastic dis
order and destruction. The Office
room is about 80 feet long, oblong
with one side lined with windows
looking out over a garden of sew
eral acres.
Directly before the windows was
Hitlers long, blood-red marble mar
table. Where Hitler planned a con.
quest OF the world the table was
battered and Clipped.
Rug Rolled up.
A rolled-up rug, long enough to
cover the whole room-was on the
floor. The Nazis must have rolled
it up, for Red soldiers who entered
the chancellery said nothing in the
room had been changed.
There are erous books
around. Memo pads and notebooks
in calendar form. On one l dis
covered Hitler had a date as far
ahead as May 20. 1 also picked up
visiting card, 1t turned out to
be that of Hitler's personal adju-
tant, Martin Bormann.
Hitler's private telephones were
strewn about the wreckage. battered
to pieces but still recognizable. OBJ
viously this place had been heavily
bombed and shelled from the win
dow side of the room.
When the Soviets captured the
chancellery they found 20 or more
bodies in this garden, battered al
most beyond recognition.
In the chancellery courtyard near
an overturned bucket lay the spar
king head from a statue of the late
Paul Won Hindenburg.
Great. dark wooden doors with
gilded hinges and handles stand at
the entrance to Hitlers office. Above
three central doors are golden
shields with Adolf Hitler's initials,
"A. H." on them. And inside is
the battered Nazi sanctum.
Upstairs are the rooms of various
Hitler assistants. Each room is
filled with scattered books, rubber
stamps, soiled bed linen and pill
lows and overturned filing cases.
Medals Litter Halls.
And then there are medals-lit-
tered up and down the broad hall
ways, on the steps, in the Offices
all the medals of the Wehrmacht
and the Third Reich. Hundreds of
them, together with yards and
yards Of campaign ribbons. There
are motherhood medals. too, and
Luftwaffe awards.

high silk hat. Beside it is one of
these certificates to German
mother. On top of the certificate
was pair of dirty Nazi underwear
Near Alexander Platz on the way

Woolworth's store. It's one of the
most completely wrecked places in
Berlin. It's literally not worth a

heavy fighting here, and while the
emperor is still intact at the top of
the monument, some lesser figures

Reparations Program.
To End War Potential
Of Germany Outlined
1y the Associated Press.

- sAAS HoooSidtSQ fTeSS.
SUPREME ALLIED HEADQUAR.
TERS, Paris, June ga reparation
program to strip Germany of its
war plants and avoid the unsuc-
cessful plan adopted after the last
war of attempting to recover war
damages in dollar value by revitaliz-
ing German industry was outlined
today by Edwin w. Pauley, Presi-
dent Truman's personal representa-
tive on the Allied Preparations Com
mission.
Our primary policy is to de-in-
dustrialize Germany, to destroy its
war potential in the future" said
Mr.. Pauley, who is the Presidents
representative, has the rank of am
bassador. With that in mind there
is considerable material for repa-
rations."
The first industries to be dis
mantled would be armament plants
followed probably by aircraft, ship
building and machine tool indus
tries, Mr.. Pauley said.
Some Manufacture Planned.
Presumably all manufacture of
consumer. goods will continue to help
feed and clothe the German people.
The same goes for the making of
medical supples-but line must be
drawn in many cases such as heavy
industry, building materials and the
manufacture of precision instru-
ments to permit production of
peacetime needs while eliminating
items such plants have been turning
out for war.
Fuel, transport and agricultural
industries, OF course, also would have
to continue as those most necessary
to keep down suffering in occupied
Germany.
Mr.. Pauley told a press conference
the United States realized mistakes
were made in reparations policies
after the last war and I'VE don't
intend to make the same ones this
time"
Damage to property and the cost
of effort and energy to defeat the
enemy form the principal bases for
reparations, Mr. Pauley said, adding
that the United States was short
on the former but extremely long on
the latter.
U. S. Will Make Claim.
He declared the United States
will assert claim, although as to
what it will be I am not prepared
to say"
The German gold hoard, uncov-
cred by the American Sd Army in a
Merkers, Germany, salt mine, will
be considered by the Preparations
Commission as a means of restitu-
ton, Mr., Pauley said, and disclosed
that certain countries-which he
did not name-already had ad-
vanced informal claims to some of it.
Mr.. Pauley indicated that the
American delegation, which has
completed a lengthy survey in the
American occupied zone of Ger
many, was going to Moscow with
definite program in mind but virtu-
ally in the dark as to the desires
of Russia and Britain, the only
other powers to be represented at
the initial reparations meeting.
Mr.. Pauley and Is to 20 others on
the 35-man American delegation |
which he heads will leave Monday
for Moscow while the REMAINDER
all technical representatives-w
continue studying the possibilities
of reparations in Germany
Mr.. Pauley said it was the United
States view that any German war
industries which could not be moved
out of Germany should be DESTROYED. ,

policemen are hand-picked, and the
Soviets as yet have not returned
their sticks to them.
The Russian and British EN-
bassies are just shells. Around the
corner off Unter den Linden is the
worst mess of all. The American
Embassy is just a few gaunt walls
with nothing between what was the
roof and the cellar except powdered
stone and brick
Many bombs mad fallen in Unter
den Linden, but these once, great
gaping holes have been filled In.
At the end stands the Branden-
burg Gate, its beauty battered. Its
columns, some of which had big
holes in them from shelling, have
been patched up. 1t looks like
gate again. However. the portion
to the right Of the columns as yo,l
face them has caved in from
direct hit.
Off to the right is the wrecked
Reichstag. 1t is just a shell. It's
center dome has fallen in. All the
windows have been knocked out. Its
columns are Clipped and chopped
and hundreds of tons of masonry lie
about. 1t is one of the most wrecked
places in the city. Inside are more
hundreds of tons of plaster statuary
and stone work Attendance cards
OF deputies-cards they checked in
time clock fashion-are ankle deep
about the floors. All the walls are
covered with initials of Red Army
soldiers, initials, names and dates.
Inside Brandenburg Gate leads
the Charlottenburger Alice through
the heart Of the Tiergaten. Presi-
dent Truman probably will be sur
prised to hear it but his portrait in
brown chrome coloring, alongside
that of Prime Minister Churchill
and Premier Stain, beams out in|
the very center of this great high
way,,ss
On the other side is a big picture
Of Premier Stain, Mr. Churchill and
President Roosevelt at the Crimea
Conference.
Tiergarten Is Wilderness.
The Tiergarten itself is broken
green wilderness.
Just as Berlin's houses and build
ings have no roofs, the Tiergarten's
celebrated trees have no tops. They
are all blown away by bombs and
cannon fire. Beneath them is for
est of steel and iron. Wrecked tanks
and machine guns, rifles, automo-
biles, antiaircraft weapons, armored
cars and few parachutes still hang
on the splintered trees.
At the far end of the Tergarten
stands the badly Clipped golden
column of victory. Sandbags are
above the base. They were for the
use of German machine gunners
who fought it out here. Near the
base is the grave of a Red Army
man. buried where he fell.
All of Berlins embassies are bad
ly bombed except for the japanese,
which is not so badly damaged.
Berlin's famous ZOO, where some
OF the bitterest fighting in the en-
tire campaign occurred, is scene
OF destruction. Practically all its
buildings are leveled No animals
are around. The mammal house
and the aquarium are bombed out,
but at least their walls are standing.
Churches Hard Hit.
Berlin's churches suffered badly.
The bombing wrecked hundreds of
them. In the last days the Nazis
took to the stone steeples with
machine guns and as result big
guns were turned on them. There is
hardly steeple which does not have
a shell hole.
There are strange but familiar
sights around the city. There are

probably will use more cold seafood
than ever. All of these are good

but all can be enhanced by the use
of a good sauce.
Remoulade sauce is made espe-
cially for just such concoctions. II
seems to blend perfectly with the
delicate favor of seafood and at
the same time gives a nice tang to
the dish.
To make it, mix the yolk of raw
egg with the yolk of a hard-cooked
egg and put through a ricer. Beat
in tablespoon of good olive oil.
Then mix in tablespoons of finely
minced shallots, 3 finely minced
gherkins, 2 teaspoons of capers, with

chopped garlic if you like it, salt
and a dash of cayenne. Add to this
