BERLIN, Jan 5.-Maj. Gen. Ray
w. Barker, commanding general of
the American garrison in Berlin,
said today that 5000 replacement
troops were expected soon in his
18th Infantry Division. He added
that no replacement would go on
duty until he had gone through an
"orientation course" teaching con-
duct not only toward the other three
Allied occupation powers but also
toward the Germans.

lin Press Club, said he feared Amer

caste unnecessarily. However, he de-
clared, it was not the task of the
occupation army to go out and win
friends and influence people" among
the Germans-nor to make enemies.
"Our job Is one of occupation
and to 60 about it correctly and as
gentlemen" he said, adding that the
orientation course, from seven to Is
days, would be for the security of
troops and concerned mainly with
when to handle guns so as to have
