New Protests on Red
Factory DismantIings
RY the A,saeiatad Press

BERLIN, Oct. 26.-German work
ers' groups have begun protests to
the Allied Control Council against a
reported new wave of reparations
removals by the Russians in their
zone of occupation.
The chief protest came from a
workers council representing about
20, 1000 workers of the big zeiss Opti-
cal Works in Jena, where 1t was re-
ported the Russians were carting of
the Schott glass works section.
The workers complained that re-
moval of the plant would bankrupt
a century-old social foundation con-
nected with the plant which sup
ports welfare organizations and edu-
cational institutions in Jena. They
pleaded that removal of the plant
would cause widespread unemploy-
ment and economic dislocation In
the city.
Ofiicial Russian sources were 81
lent on numerous reports OF new
factory dismantlings which came tt
American and British quarters here
from German sources.
CThe Potsdam declaration per-
mits the Russians to take repara-
tions from their zone, but Russian
authorities have more than once
told German administrators in
the last year that "dismantlings
are now ended" For some
months the Russians have con-
centrated on removing finished
manufactured products rather
than the machines that made
them, and a new wave of re-
movals would indicate they had
reverted to their previous policy)
There were also new reports o
removals Of expert German worker
from plants in the Soviet zone II

Concerning these reports, an Off
cial Russian source, while giving NJ
figures, reiterated an earlier state
ment that the workers had signet

Eighty-fve per cent of the original
sentences imposed by Army courts
martial during the war have since
been reduced, some of them entirely
suspended, Undersecretary Of War
Kennth c. Royal said last night.
In an address at the 60th annual
convention of the West Virginia Bar
Association, Mr.. Royal expressed
the opinion that something should
and can be done to prevent in the
future at least a part of the excess
sive original sentences" but added
There will lbe times where in the
interest of victory and for the safety
of other good soldiers, it is necessary
to curb military offenses by heavy
punishments designed to have an
immediate deterrent effect, even
though the specific sentences may
have to be reduced in the future" ;"
Mr.. Royal, admitting errors in
the Army's judicial system, never
theless contended that ION the
whole the administration of justice
by courts-martial is superior to the
administration of justice in the
State and Federal courts"
