BERLIN, July 13.-To the great
relief of CT Joe and Tommy Atkins,
when you're in Berlin you do as the
Russians do. q
In other words, American and
British troops In the German capt.
tal--most Of whom are fed up with
the characterization policy In force

the internationally friendly ways Of
the Red Army in peacetime.
The generals may say that Moth
ing has been changed in the rule
book since they moved more than
$4,000 American and British soldiers
into Berlin, but things nevertheless
seem to be different.
Ivanoyich--the Red Army equiva-
lent of CT Joe--operates ON the
understanding that he's not sup
posed to take dyed-in-the-wool
Nazis to his bosom. He believes
that Nazis properly belong behind
bars, and that Germans who are
not Nazis are entitled to be treated
without race hatred. Premier Sta
Inns words to that effect appear on
many signboards.
Therefore, when Ivan saunters
out in the early evening he feels
perfectly free to drop into a con-
venient cafe, strike up an acquaint-
ance with any German girl and
invite her to dance and drink with
him.
In the last week American and
British troops also have been crowd

Truman Keeps Posted

Associated Press Stan Correspondent.
ABOARD CRUISER AUGUSTA
WITH PRESIDENT TRUMAN, July
l3.-Six days out of Newport News
President Truman today divided his
attention between opposite sides OF
the globe.
His own approaching talks with
Prime Minister Churchill and Pre-
mier Stain in the outskirts of Ber-
lin shared shipboard interest with
the quickening pace OF the Pacific
war.
Mr.. Truman interspersed his talks
with diplomatic advisers with those
of military men keeping him posted
on news Of the daring Sd Fleet
strikes against Japan.
Comdr. John A. Tyree, assistant
naval aide, made hourly revisions In
Pacific charts brought along for the
purpose.
Meanwhile, 1t was disclosed aboard
ship that the Big Three talks In
Potsdam will begin either Monday
or Tuesday of next week. And Mr..
Truman repeatedly is convinced they
will last longer than either the
Quebec, Teheran or Yalta Confer
ences. The latter was an eight-day
session.
The Augusta encountered its first
rough weather of the voyage yes
terday. Rain and stormy seas pre-
vented an inspection launching of
the cruisers observation planes.

Glenn |. Martin Cited
with Agent in Rye
Market 0yerbuYing

By the Associated Press. EA n
The Agriculture Departments drive
against grain market speculation to-
day led to complaint against
Glenn L. Martin and the Baltimore
airplane builders agent.
Signed by Secretary of Agricul-
ture Anderson, the complaint said
Mr.. Martin and Henry L. T. Ullrich
of Wilmington, Del, bought $780,
900 bushels of rye futures on the
Chicago Board of Trade June 8, de-
spite 1000, 900 bushel daily trading
limit.
Mr.. Martin, in San Francisco,
commented that the departments
action was "all new and Greek to
me-" Saying Mr.. Ullrich had been
operating for his account, Mr.. Mar
tin added in an interview:
MY business is building airplanes.
SO I don't pay much attention to
the account. have, OF
course, expected him to trade in
accordance with the rules and regu-
lations Of the exchange and with
the laws of the United States"
Innocence Is Protested.
Mr.. Ullrich told Wilmington re-
porters that IF there was any vio-
lation of regulations, 1t was done
innocently."
Penalty for violating the trading
limit, which the department said
was designed to prevent excessive
speculation, Is loss of trading priv
ileges on commodity contract mar
kets for a period to be determined
by the Secretary of Agriculture. The
limit was imposed by the Commod-
ity Exchange Commission in 1888.
Mr.. Martin and Mr.. Ullrich have
20 days TO reply to the complaint. A
hearing before an Agriculture De-
partment referee was set for August.
Several Complaints Issued.
On May 20 the department issued
a complaint naming General Foods
Corp, its executive vice president,
Charles w. Metcalf; Daniel r. Rice
q Co., Daniel e. Rice, Lawrence j.
Ryan and Philip r. O'Brien, mem
beers of the Chicago Board. 1t con-
tended they manipulated prices Of
rye and rye futures contracts be-
tween December, 1912, and May.
1914, and established corner on the
Chicago rye market in May, 1914.
More recently Representative
Keefe, Republican, of Wisconsin
called upon Congress to investigate
rye trading on the Chicago market.
asserting in a House speech that the
inquiry would disclose a national
scandal"
With no ceiling price on the grain.
rye Is che Of the few commodities on
which speculation is possible. Gov
eminent action to impose ceilings is
expected shortly, but under a re-
quirement of Is days notice prior to
the planting season they cannot APP
