conducting and planning Allis-
Chalmers strike breaking strategy
and that Allis- Chalmers, through
its membership in the associa-
ton, is receiving the support

There was no authoritative in

the movement.
Gen. McNarney told reporters at
La recent press conference that Mar
shal Sokolovsky had informed him
the troop movement would continue
for some weeks and that because
fof demands on transport, 1t would
be impossible for the Russians to
admit any American correspondents
for a tour of their zone until next
year.
A German correspondent recent
|ly returned from Thuringia, said
the Soviet troop movement there
was something terrific"
However" he added, "the Rus
slams haven't announced anything
officially, so nobody knows Just
what the new dispositions will be-
There was no authoritative in
formation here on whether Russian
redeployment or demobilization Of
any considerable extent was oc-
curing In territories east OF Ger
many.
However, some Russian controlled
newspapers here today ran on their
front pages q Soviet agency dis
patch from Belgrade, reporting that
Premier Marshal Tito had ordered a
sizable rehabilitation Of Yugoslav
forces.
No Evidence Of Berlin Cut.
An American intelligence officer
said that despite all sorts of rumors
and reports" from unofficial sources
there has not yet been any visible
evidence of reduction Of the Soviet
forces in Berlin.
IF the Russians are really max
ing big-scale withdrawal of their
forces we'n hear about it ofilcially
with considerable fanfare, I be-
lieve," this officer added. THE Rus
slams certainly would capitalize on
1t in q United Nations Assembly
debate on disarmament"
Most American sources were In
c1ined to associate reports of Soviet
Withdrawals with political develop
ments In the Russian zone.
The Russians had promised Ger
man political leaders that reduction
of occupation forces could be ex-
pected II the merger OF the Social
Democratic and Communist parties
was carried through.
But they had also promised more
than once that diSnantling Of fac
tories for reparations was ended
Yet the Russians have acknowledged
| lofncially that there is q new wave
LOT dismantiing under way.
However, the victory Of the fusion
ist Socialist Unity Party tSED) in
the zonal elections-despite its de-
feat in Berlin-might have been
sufiicient In Russian eyes to warrant
% cut in troop strength.
Reds Clearing Decks"
Other sources connected possible
Russian redispositions with the inn
minent entry Of four power inspec-
tion teams into all the four occupa-
tion zones to check on the progress
lin liquidation Of the German war
potential.
The Russians have been reported
|feverishly clearing the decks" for
such inspection visits. which have
already been delayed from their
original schedule because Of slow
ness in obtaining clearances. Al
Though the occupation troop strength
is not the concern Of these inspec-
tions. they might in the course OF
their travels get an idea Of DISPOSE
tions.
A further factor In any Russian
Army changes might be the pros
|pective unifcation of Germany with
the erasure Of zonal boundaries
which would open the Soviet zone
to freer trade and travel.
