By the Assoeiofsd Press

NORFOLK, Va, Dec. 20-Typhus
fever, which has been of some con-
Germ in Norfolk for a decade, has
been controlled "for the time being
at least" r. E. Dorer of the United
States Public Health Service, has re-
ported to DR.. John M. Huff, director
of public health.
This followed the completion of a
large-scale program in which 4l6
blocks have been busted with more
than $4,000 pounds of DDT dust.
The DDT was to kill the rat flea,
which carries typhus to other rats
and to humans.
The story of a typhus threat that
never eliminated because of prompt
action, began in 1887, when the first
case was reported.
Between 1897 and 1945, 81 cases
were reported. With the end Of
World War II and the return of
many ships and soldiers from other
countries, more cases were con-
sidered probable.
Joint preventive efforts were un-
deraken by the city, the Virginia
Health Department and the United
States Public Health Service. Dust

Red War Of Nerves :
Comes Up With Hint
Of Berlin Occupation

BERLIN, Dec. 20 (CDN) Rus
sias newest move in its war OF
nerves against Berliners is the blunt
suggestion that this city soon may
be occupied entirely by Soviet troops.
A pointed editorial to that effect
appeared recently in Taegliche
Rundschau, Berlin's Soviet Army
newspaper. The Rundschau also
abruptly stopped vaunting itself as
paper for the German people"
Now the anxious citizenry, whose
attention ordinarily would be cen
tered on Christmas preparations. Is
distracted by fear Of the future and
the possibility of living in the Rus
sian orbit. ~
Berlin groups who have opposed
Soviet influence as exercised through
the tame Socialist Unity Party, are
trying to build up their own conf
dence. Surely the Russians can't
mean it, they say.
Remember what the Americans
and British have told us. they go on.
They have said they won't leave
until forced out. What these people
are inclined to overlook is the fact
that it would probably mean the
beginning of shooting war.
The Russians have not actually
stated that Berlin will be taken over
by Soviet forces. They have said,
however, that Berlin's four power
status rests on the Yalta and Pots
dam agreements for unified Ger
many" and that any alteration Of
their terms would automatically be
reflected in Berlin.
Obviously the Russians will choose,
IN their argument, to ignore the
fact that since the end of the war
there never has been any such thing
as unified Germany. Their yard
stick will be how far the Ameri-
cans, British and French are pre-
pared to go to establish a genuine
Western German government.
| Cooler heads here believe that
neither side is prepared to make a
final break. The four-power Allied
Control Council here will increase
in Importance, if anything, they ar
que. since it is almost the last place
where the Allies meet officially.
| In the interval, however, the
threat to Berlin will continue to be
one of the most widely utilized argu-
ments by both sides and will remain
one of the most explosive features
OF the present unhappy state.
