 Secretary of Defense Forrestal estimated in Berlin that the Ber- lin airlift is costing U. s. taxpay- CTS Sl0O,000.000 a year. Since the Russians blockaded Berlin in June, the U. s. and Britain have been supplying the Western zones by air.

 The Republicans are definitely giving some thought to the New Administration. And there may be shake-up in the COP top con gressional jobs as a result.
 There Is Senator Robert Taft of Ohio, who helped write the rA,ord of the E,ghtieth Congress. Leading Republicans contend that this con- tributed not only to the defeat of Governor Thomas Dewey, but to the party's loss of both houses in the election
 So, these top Republicans are discussing the possibility that Sena- tor Taft may decide to give up his job as a Republican leader in the Senate. Taft may face fight if he wants to remain as chairman of the Senate Republican policy commit tee, and there seems to te little doubt that he will fight if the Re- publicans make an issue of 1t.
 On the other hand. some of the Ohio Senator's friends say that if Taft is not challenged openly, he may wish to step out of his own accord. The Senator is in Europe now

BERLIN, Nov. l5.-tn1- U. s. Army sources said yesterday they were mystitied by. the fact that de- 'ertions Of Russian soldiers coming ever to the West Zone of Germany. had stopped suddenly.
 There had been steady stream of deserting Russians until the end of October. British officials esti- mated there were atout l2,000 de- sertious since l945.
 An Allied Intelligence officer of- fered this possible reason for the abrupt termination.
 Tine Russians probably have mov- ed in new troops. When they have been around for while, living in compounds, and are due to go back to Russia. the assertions no doubt will start up again"
 Another officer said the Russians had clamped down tighter restric- tions on their men. At night, they practically lock 'em up" he sad.

 Bands BIare
By TOM WILLIAMS


 LONDON, Nov. 15.-Rt-A joyous Britain roared a welcome today to the tiny Prince of Edinburgh. first born of beloved Princess Eliz- abeth. He probably will be Eng lands next King.
 The "bonny lad,' as Bucking- ham Palace attendants called him, weighed seven pounds, six ounces at birth Sunday at 9:14 GAIA p. m. EST). Elizabeth. heiress-presump- tive to the throne, and her son, who becomes second in line, both were declared in satisfactory con- dition.
 The U. s. warships Columbus and Hamul joined British naval craft at Plymouth in firing a A. gun salute to the royal child.
 The Royal Horse Artillery. King Georges own troops, wheeled guns into Hyde Park and fired tumultu- ous rounds in honor of the child and his mother.
 Elsewhere trumpets and bands blared; bonfires famed and fire works snapped.
 The baby was born six days be- fore the first wedding anniversary of Elizabeth and Prince Philip. Crowds outside the palace scream ed cheers to the nervous father last night.
 The Union Jack whipped in the wind above Buckingham Palace. Ships at London docks set their sirens screaming. Sailors got double ration of rum.
 The 12 bells of magnificent cid St. Paul's Cathedral began peal- ing in mid-morning. Bells of Vest minister Abbey and scores of less- CT churches joined in.
 The newest Prince is a distant cousin to all the crowned rulers in Continental Europe. He is a great-great-great-g ran d son of Queen Victoria through both Eliza beth and Philip.
 Through his father, the baby can claim as an ancestor Astrid, the sister of Canute, the King of both Britain and Denmark. The infant would bring to the British throne for the first time since the death of King Harthacnut in 1042 di- rect male descendant from the Danish race, which is credited with a half share in the ancestry of the English.
 Gun saluteS and other noisy phases of the celebrations were passed up yesterday by old cus- tom so as not to mar the dignity and calm of the Sabbath.
 What the little Prince will be named, may not be announced un- til his christening. The Kings favorite country estate is Sandring ham and the beautiful church of Saint Mary Magdalene probably will be the scene.
 The royal family usually spends Christmas at Sandringham and Elizabeth and Philip are expected to go there the middle of next month.
 The Archbishop of Canterbury probably will officiate at the christening. aided by the Arch bishop of York

Commies Would Be 0e. feated : U. 5. Army
 Has New Puzzle
(By The Associated Press)

 The Russians flatly and finally rejected plans for city wide cleo tion in Berlin Dec. 5. They said they would not recognize results nor allow voting in their sector. There appeared little doubt the Communists would have suffered serious losses.
 U. s. Army sources said they are puzzled because Russian deserters have suddenly ceased fleeing to the Western zones of Germany. The British said about 12,000 de- serted since 1945. One officer said the Russians probably had moved in new troops. Another said the soldiers were kept practically under key at night.
 The United States was reported by an informed source in Paris planning a new move in an effort to end the war in Palestine. The Jews were protesting against an order of the acting mediator, pr. Ralph Bunche, that the Israelis withdraw from positions won in the Negev since Oct. IA, during fight ing in violation of the U. N. truce. The area involved totals about
 
 500 square miles.
