Marshall Will Press
Reds on Reduction Of
German Reparations
Americans at London Take
View Thot Unity Issue
Hinges on War Claims
By the Associated Press

LONDON, Dec. 6.-Secretary of
State Marshall and key Amer
lean economic advisers decided
to press Soviet Foreign Minister
Molotov today for an answer on
whether Russia will diminish it's
S1O,OOO,OOO,OOO reparations de-
mand and defer collections until
Germany is back on its feet.
The American delegation met
privately for two hours before to-
days Big Four Council session.
Diplomatic informants said Gen.
Marshall with support from British
Foreign Secretary Bevin, takes the
position that there can be no agree
ment on Germany's economic unity
until the reparations issue is settled,
and may insist as well on an ac-
counting of the amount already
extracted by Russia from Eastern
Germany.
Bevin Brings Out Issue.
Mr.. Bevin brought the issue out
into the open yesterday, reminding
Mr.. Molotov that the western pow
ers were spending millions to feed
and support Western Germany and
tartly declaring that one ally should
not expect to collect reparatlons
from another.
Behind this maneuvering over
reparations lies the determination OF
the western powers to interlace Ger
many's industrial machine, or at
least the western half, into the plan
for Europe's economic rehabilita-
ton.
Members of the American delega-
ton, mindful of congressional senti-
ment, privately have expressed their
recognition that any agreement to
begin meeting Russia's reparations
claims in the immediate future
would jeopardize chances for get
ting the vast appropriations neces-
sary for the Marshall plan.
Developments SO far in the For
eign Ministers Council have indi-
Gated the virtual partitioning of
Germany between Russia and the
western powers for an indefinite
time.
New Issue Added.
AS the second week of the con-
ference drew to a close, one more
issue-German economic unity-WaS
added to the list of those which
have provoked basic disagreement
between Russia on the one hand and
France, Britain and the United
States on the other.
The latest deadlock came yester-
day when Gen. Marshall challenged
Mr.. Molotov to stop talking gen
eralities" about the German peace
treaty and state precisely the
conditions under which Russia
would agree to unity Germany. The
American secretary called for the
elimination of Germany's zonal
boundaries as starter.
In response, Mr.. Molotov launched
into an attack on British and Amer
ican policies in Western Germany
accused the two powers of breaking

had been a contradiction between
Gen. Marshall and Secretary of
Commerce Hartman over the issue
of unifying Germany.
Hartman Report Cited.
The Soviet Minister said Mr.. Har.
riman had recommended in a recent
report to the President on the Mar

regime in Western Germany.
This, Mr.. Molotov said, was con.
