Col. Frank L. Howley, U. S.
commandant in Berlin, said the
American-British airlift is de-
feating the Soviet blockade of
the capital and that food and
fuel surpluses are being increas-
ed daily for the 1000, 100000 re-
sidents OF western Berlin.
Howley conceded that Il can
see a cold winter ahead for Ber-
lin," when he spoke at a news
conference yesterday on the
Tooth day of the blockade.
He added, however, that the
airlift has been more than
meeting Berlin's minimum re-
quirements."
He explained that when the
United States and Britain began
shutting food and fuel into Ber-
lin from the western zones June
26 there was food on hand for
"a days. Now there is food for
80 days. There is now 48-day
supply Of flour, the most essen

And the planes have even
gained some ground on the coal
supply.
An average Of 1900 metric
tons of coal is being flown into
Berlin every day, Howley said
while the planned consumption il
only about 2,l00 metric tons.
