Military Prestige Vital
Abroad, Editors Say
BY the Assoeioted Press

A group Of newspaper and maga-
zine executives returned from
Europe yesterday expressing belief
that the United States must main
tain it's military prestige in areas
jointly occupied with Russia even
though actual command headquar-
ters are transferred elsewhere
They also told news conference
that the quality of American troops
on occupation duty in Germany,
Austria and Italy was much i'm
proved over year ago-that now
they look like soldiers. act like
soldiers"
The reference to maintaining mil
itary representation in joint areas
with Russia arose out of the col
lapse of the London conference, and
discussions among the United States,
Britain and France looking toward
establishment of a Western Ger
man government.
The editors concluded that I'VE
have got to stay in Berlin, Vienna
and Trieste whether the actual
headquarters are there or not"
There have been reports that
Gen. Lucius D. Clay, American COM
mander, might transfer most of his
work from headquarters at Berlin
to Frankfurt, in the United States
zone, but Gen. Clay has indicated
there will be no formal removal of
his headquarters from the four
power city of Berlin.

Scots, Lacking
7rousers, Forced
To Wear kits
BY The Assoeiofed Press

LONDON, Dec. 19.-The Scots
with only mild complaint, have sent
most of their whisky abroad to help
Britain's recovery. But they pro-
tested loudly yesterday about the
clothing shortage which has forced
many Scotsmen to don kits.
Maj. Guy Lloyd, M. P. for Rem
frew, declared in the House of Com
mons that many Scotsmen are wear
ing kits because they have nc
trousers, although nowadays the kilt
is normally reserved for festival
garb or dress uniform.
Another complain came from Hec-
tor Hughes, Aberdeen M. p, who
read letter from a constituent. She
said her 17-year-old grandson,
feet 2, couldn't accept a job because
he couldn't get trousers to fit him.
IF the position doesn't improve, !
can see him having to work in his
kilt" the letter said.
Harold Wilson, president of the
Board of Trade, said he didn't think
the trousers shortage was any worse
in Aberdeen than elsewhere, but
promised to give special attention
to the complaint.

BERLIN, Dec. ia four-power
Christmas show, scheduled to be
held here Sunday for the benefit Of
Berlins orphans, was called off to-
day after the Russians withdrew
because of a misunderstanding with
the Americans.
The big party, at the State Opera
in the Russian sector Of the city,
was to have featured an appear
ance by the boys choir of the city
of Dresden, in the Russian occupa-
ton zone.
The misunderstanding which
caused the Russians to walk out
developed when some one asserted
that the leader of the Dresden choir
was an Unidentified" Nazi and that
this prejudiced his choir.

the American military governments
