British Accuse Soviets

glerS, some in hospital and others
in need of medical attention" the
statement said, but all efforts to
secure for British repatriation Of
ficers freedom of movement which
would have enabled them to locate
and care for these men have
throughout been unavailing."
1t was charged that the few visits
the Russians permitted British OF
fetal representatives to make to
their own liberated prisoners were
severely restricted.
The Foreign Office statement, I'M
usually sharp in its tone for one
addressed to a close ally, was in
reply to criticisms no less sharp
made by Col.-Gen Flip I. Golikov,
chief Russian repatriation officer,
regarding treatment of freed Rus
slams in the western zone.
At Odessa, it was said, British
officers were not permitted to help
at or to live in the prisoners camp
in accordance with agreement, and
were required to get new passes
each time they entered it.
GAS rgards the visit to Lublin to
which Colleen. Golikov also re-
fers, the officers in question found
it quite impossible to perform any
services for the benefit of Eberat-
ed British and United States pris-
oners whom they found living in
totally inadequate conditions" the
statement said.
The statement went into great
detail in replying to Golikov's
charges regarding prisoners freed
ey the Western Allies.
For one thing, the statement said,
except for one American ship
Britain provided all vessels which
carried liberated prisoners to and
from Russia by water, and Russia
provided none.
A large proportion of the Rus
SLAMS freed by the Allies were in
German uniform, it was explained,
as members Of the Nazi Todt Con-
struction Corps or other military
organizations.

Judge Gives Light Sentence
To Man Who Admits Theft

Truthfulness has its compensa-
tions, it appeared yesterday in Mu-
nicipal Court, as two colored en-
ployes of the Potomac Fish Market
received Jail sentences on larceny
charges resulting from their alleged
attempt to sell products on the side
for their own benefit.
Lawrence Kelly, 38. of the 1906
block of Sixth street NV, who
denied the charges, was found guilty
and sentenced to 1870 days in Jail
while Julius Small, 30s of the zoe
block of F street S.W., received a
45-day sentence after telling Judge
Nathan Margold of his part in the
! incident.
According to police, seven pounds
of crab meat were placed on a de-
livery truck Friday by Kelly, q
loader, with instructions that the
driver, Small, sell them at a specified
address. Jack Stamates, market
owner, followed Small and uncovered
the plan, police reported.
Small told Judge Margold he was
to have received half the proceeds
of the sale and Kelly the other half
