Germans Ask Allies
For Moratorium on
Plant DismantIinq
BY the Assoeioisd Press

BERLIN, Oct. 1.-THE Sozialdem-
okrat, organ Of the Social Demo-
cratic Party, called today for 4 dis
mantling moratorium" in comment
ing on Allied plans for dismantling
German factories in the British and
American zones for reparations pur-
poses.
The official newspaper of the
Soviet occupation zone. Taegliche
Rundschau, made no editorial COM
ment on the dismantling program
announced yesterday, but the Soviet
licensed Neues Deutschland said the
Socialist Unity Party and the Com
munist Party both were critical of it..
Reason Has Made Progress
Sozialdemokrat said Germans
must recognize that the reduction
from 1886 to 6s2 in the number OF
plants to be dismantled proves that
in the two years since the German
capitulation reason has made some
progress.
The German people are prepared
to make reparations," the paper said.
They have, however, considered
doubts whether dismantling is the
best means.
The only possibility we see for
rapid reconstruction Of European
economy Is the recently proposed
plan OF the Social Democratic Party
for a moratorium on dismantling.
Such plan is not only In the in
terest of Germany, but of all Eu-
rope"
The British-licensed Telegraf de-
scribed the program as "uneco-
nomic" and said the "dismantlings
list cannot be brought into accord
with the spirit of the Marshall Plan
which Germany as 4 part Of Europe
wants to support"
Can one in the present situa-
ton sincerely encourage workmen
to tear down their work places?
And what happens If they refuse?'
Peace Plant Exception Asked,
The Soviet licensed Neues
Deutschland said the Socialist Unity
Party and the Communist Party
raised Serious objections" to the
plan because no difference Is drawn
between plants serving peacetime
needs and war factories to be
liquidated under the Potsdam
agreement"
The factories, whose production
serves the needs of peace, must be
excepted from the dismantling pro-
gram," the paper said.
The paper said the two parties
demand that instead of dismantling
the non-war plants the Allies take
their reparations from the produce
ton Of these factories.
Only two Berlin factories are in
cluded in the lists announced yes
terday.

New NIL Title P|ayofI
Lineup Assured as
Cards, Eagles Win
BY the Associated Press

Therell be a brand-new cast for
the National Football Leagues
championship playoff this year, al
though it won't be completed until
next Sunday when the Philadelphia
Eagles and Pittsburgh Steelers try
their final lines at Pittsburgh.
The Chicago Cardinals got into
the act yesterday by FASTING their
crosstown rivals, the Bears, 30 to 81,
for the Western Division crown.
The Eagles tied the Steelers, who
were idle, for the Eastern lead by
clipping the Green Bay Packers,
28-14. Neither the Cards nor
Eagles ever have been in the title
playoff before. The older circuits
classic has been dominated by the
Redskins and New York Giants in
the East and Bears and Green Bay
in the West.
Cards Smear Luckman.
A record Wrigley Field football
crowd of 1852 fans watched the
Cards jump off to a 27-7 half time
lead against the Bears and stub
bornly hold on in Chicago.
The Cards scored the first time
they got the ball on an 80-yard
pass play from Paul Christman to
Boris Dimanchef with Dimanchef
scampering so yards after sharing
the aerial.
A pass interception led to the
Cards second touchdown which FL
mer Angsman scored and the GAL
Looping Redbirds sewed 1t up in the
second period with two more six
pointers.
Sid Luckman. the Bears great T.
formation quarterback, constantly
was rushed by the hungry Cards and
although he completed 10 out of q
tosses for 212 yards, four of his
passes were intercepted, including
two which paved the way for Card
tallies.
At Philadelphia, Steve Van Buren,
electrified disappointing turnout
OF 26,7l6 fans by scoring three
touchdowns and establishing a cir
cult ground gaining record In shep-
herding the Eagles into a stalemate
for the Eastern Division lead.
Van Buren, Tailed the first three
Eagle touchdowns and gained a
total of So yards to run his season
figure to 1908 yards, thus eclipsing
the previous high Of 1904 gained by
Beattie Feathers Of the 1894 Chi
cago Bears. Van Buren,, however,
has made 100 more carries than
Feathers. Indian Jack Jacobs
passed to both Packer touchdowns.
Rams Bowl Over Giants.
The Rams closed out their sched-
ule by scoring 1910 triumph over
the New York Giants at Los Angeles.
The Rams took 7-point lead in
the first quarter against the Giants,
last years Eastern Division champs,
and stayed out in front the rest of
the way. The Giants were ham
pered by illness of several players
from food poisoning.
Fred Gehrke sparkled for the
Rams. He booted field goal, four
extra points and returned a punt
"a yards for . touchdown after re-
placing Bob Waterf1eld, injured
early In the game.

Graham, Motley Lead
Browns 10 Second
An-America Title
By the Asseelotad Press

NEW YORK, Dec. 15.-Cleve-
lands powerful Browns owned the
championship of the All-America
Football Conference for another year
today and it looked as though they
would continue to dominate the
young professional circuit as long as
Otto Graham and Marion Motley
retain their health.
The Browns defended the title
with bone-crushing authority YES
terday by fiattening the New York
Yankees, 1913, on the frozen, snow
lined turf of Yankee Stadium and
as usual 1t was Graham's passing
and Motley's running that gave the
Ohioans the edge.
An overcoated throng Of 6a,879
watched the Conferences Western
Division titlists score in the first and
third periods to spoil the bid of the
Eastern champs to win the flag on
the same ground where their base
ball counterparts had captured the
World Series only 10 weeks before.
1t was even more decisive than
year ago, when the Browns won the
inaugural playof by subduing the
same Yankees. l4-9, at Cleveland.
~ Motley Sets Up Score.
A 52-yard run by the ponderous
Motley, longest of the day, set up
the first Cleveland touchdown,
scored on sneak by Graham from
"a yard out after he had tipped
short pass to Mac Speedie to eat up
six of the last 7 yards.
Motley appeared touchdown bound
as he broke into the clear from the
Browns IS, but Harmon Rowe
bounced the big fellow out of bounds
at the Is. Bruce Afford intercepted
a pass from Graham on the next
play, but it was nullified by an inter-
ference penalty which gave the
Browns the chance they needed to
reach goal.
The Browns added the clincher
in the third stanza after Tom Col
ella intercepted a pass thrown by
Spec Sanders and ran 1t back IL
yards to the Yankee Al.
Motley picked up 16, Graham
passed II to Special Delivery Jones
and eight to Mickey Wayne as the
Browns moved quickly to the 4.
There Jones took the ball from
Graham on a beautiful fake and
went over standing up.
1t was a sad day for Sanders, who
was hobbled by an ankle injury SUI
fered in the final game of the reg
ular season after leading the Yank-
ees to the Eastern pennant.
The game was the first in 10 in
which Sanders failed to score a
touchdown pass.
Yankees Well Checked.
The Yankees crossed the midfield
stripe only three times all day and
their lone scoring opportunity came
in the second period when Harvey
johnson booted a 12-yard field goal
after 62-yard march had begged
down six yards short OF the end
zone.
Buddy Young, the speed boy in the
Yankee attack, also was slowed by
the frozen turf. He fumbled twice
when 1t hurt.
Restricted mainly to a passing
role, Sanders completed only seven
Of the II forwards he threw, while
Graham connected IA times out of
81 attempts.
Cleveland made Is first downs to
Is for the Yankees and piled up
172 yards on the ground in addition
to the liz through the air while
holding New York to 1913 yards by
rushing and SO on passes.
