Allies May Combine
Occupation Troops
In Event OF Attack
by the Asseeicted Press

The question of combining Amer
lean occupation troops with those Of
the five nations in the Western
European alliance-in event of at
tack-is being studied"
That word came yesterday from
Gen. j. Lawton Collins, vice chief
of staff of the Army.
Any such decision would be up to
Congress and the President, he said,
adding that the Army has to con-
slider such possibility.
British Field Marshal Montgom-
cry is chairman of the Military
Committee in the Western European
alliance. Member countries are
Britain, France, Belgium, the Meth
erlands and Luxembourg.
Back From European Tour.
Gen. Collins is just back from q
12-day tour of Europe. He held
news conference which had these
other high lights:
The American constabulary force
in Germany, with morale and eff
cheney high, has been revamped on
a fighting basis"
The job Of internal police pro-
lection has been gradually taken
over by the Germans, Gen. Collins
said, leaving the constabulary in bet
ter shape as a fighting unit.
The Greek Army will have to be
largely reuilt before the northern
guerrillas can be crushed, and Amer
lean aid be concentrated on improv-
ing economic conditions.
Greek Army Dsbanded.
Gen. Collins said the Greek Army
had been disbanded during the Ger
man occupation and is now without
seasoned noncommissioned officers
or any junior officers.
"An army without noncoms is not
worth a Nickel" Gen. Collins COM
mented.
He praised the officers and men
of the military missions to Turkey
and Greece for their tact and sense
of responsibility in their dealings
with the peoples of those countries.

Seven 0uakes 'Jiggle
Reno WithoutDama
By the Associated Press


RENO, New. Dec. 2s.-Seven
earthquakes hit Reno within AZ
hours last night-the third one
causing a good deal Of juggling" in
Reno's 42-year-old City Hall and
bringing prompt adjournment of a
City Council session. There were
no reports Of damage.
Frank McCulloch, City Hall re-
tporter covering the council session
for the Reno Gazette, said the Gig
Cling" shock was accompanied by a
slight rumble. At least two of the
earlier tremors were relatively
sharp" he reported.
Although some of the lesser trem-
ors were not generally felt, Prof.
Vincent P. Gianella, University Of
Nevada seismologist, said seven were
recorded between $40 pm. and s:24
(PST. Four were very feeble" he
said. He reported that he had
heard a rumbling sound at 6:24 and
again at 9:24. -
Prof. Gianella said all the quakes
centered very close to Reno" Resi-
dents from Reno eastward to
Sparks, 8 miles distant, felt the
tremors and deluged police. firemen
and newspapers with telephone
calls.
The area has had no major earth
quake in the past, although 1882
tremor cracked walls and broke
plaster and window panes.
Prof. Gianella treasured callers,
many Of whom were near hysteria,
he said. They feared major dis
aster would follow the minor quakes.
Faculty men of the University of
Nevada's Mackay School of Mines
said they believed the series resulted
from slipping in the Steamboat
Fault in the Washoe Valley miles
south of Reno. "a fault is break
in the earth's crust; earthquakes re-
suit when the two edges Slip.)

Stock Prices Slump
In Face Of Another
Blast Of Selling
by the Assoeiafed Press

NEW YORK, Nov. Stock prices
withered away under a new selling
blast in today's market.
Quotations tumbled / to more
than points These losses were
as large as on Wednesdays post
election break, the worst in some
two years.
Shortly before noon trading was
so rapid that the high-speed ticker
tape dropped behind actual business
on the floor of the exchange by 4
minutes. The delay lasted about
one-half hour.
Brokers reported that the main
bulk Of the selling orders came
from the general investor. The
market was not dominated by pro-
fessional operations, they stated.
Large industrial areas in New
York, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Mich
igan and Ohio contributed a sub
stantial part of the stock offerings,
one leading exchange firm said.
A quick check OF opinion in the
financial district indicated that SELL
ing was based largely on uneasiness
regarding the plans of the admin
iStration.
Specifically mentioned were the
possibility of new excess profits
tax, ALLEGATION and inventory con-
trolls, stronger rent controls, ration
ing scarce products, and a fourth
round of wage increases.
