Il can say to you what modesty
would forbid the President to say
for himself as fully as his expert

deep hatred of war stems from his

The National Security Council
was to meet later in the day at the
White House, bringing together the
top Government officials responsible
for defense and foreign policy. On
previous visits to Washington. Gen.
Clay has reported to the council on
the Soviet blockade of Berlin. He
was uncertain whether he would at
tend todays session.
At his news conference Gen. Clay
also told reporters:
l. There is no evidence OF war
movement in the Soviet zone of
Germany and that he had noticed
no large number of Russian troops
in the Eastern zone.
2. He does not anticipate any
Russian violence IN the Berlin air
corridor and declared the Allied air
lift can supply the blockaded capital
daily with more than 5000 tons of
food and essentials, such as coal, in
good weather, and 5000 in bad
weather. THE city can be supported
by air no matter what the weather" !"
he explained, land, therefore. the
attempt to blockade is only an at
tempt"
g. There are evidences of "a very
large" Communist indoctrinated
German police force in Eastern Ger
many which he estimated at 200, 900
to 100000 men. However, he said he
did not favor increasing the small
German police force in Western
Germany at this time.

The case. he explained, came be-

which hundreds of others were re-
viewed. Previously, he added, the
record was examined by a board of

u. ). Chief Of Berlin
Charges Reds Block
Cih-Wide Elections
BY the Assoeioted Press

BERLIN, Oct. 21.-Col. Frank L.
Howley, American commandant
of Berlin, accused his Russian
counterpart today of blocking
city-wide elections to "Save the
Communists from overwhelming
defeat and condemnation"
Prospects for an all-Berlin city
election, scheduled December S,
faded with an announcement by the
Soviet commandant of conditions
which must be met before he will
agree to city-wide voting.
The Soviet commandant, Maj.
Gen. Alexander Kotikov, laid down
the conditions in a letter to Berlins
acting mayor, who had asked ap-
proval of election procedures SINH
lar to that already extended by the
Western powers.
"Soapbox Oratory."
Col. Howley commented:
I'm the light of what he and the
German Communists already have
said, this is just his way of say
ing no.
LAS for all the strings he attaches
and the rest of his double talk, it's
the same type of obvious soapbox
oratory he has been giving us for
'ears and it does not deserve COM
lment. The people of Berlin will
understand that very well.
"Kotikov has always opposed elec-
tions until, as he once said in the
Allied Kommandatura I'm sure the
reactionaries won't win However,
we got elections for Berlin in Octo-
ber. 1916, when the Western powers
took the issue all the way up to the
Allied Control Council for Germany
and there-over Kotikovs head
got the Russians to agree. The re-
suit was that the people of Berlin
rejected the Communists. If
elections were held today the Com
munists would be lucky to get or
4 per cent of the vote.
THE Communists don't dare sub
init to an election and take the over
whelming condemnation the people
of Berlin would give them. They
would prefer rather to hire few
people to go down to City Hall and
riot and beat up elected representa-
tives of the people"
Gen. Kotikov's conditions were
broad and demanding. Acting Mayor
Ferdinand Friedensburg, expressing
regret at GeRf Kotikov's reply, as
serted:
In my opinion elections cannot
be held only in the three Western
sectors, with the possibility Soviet
sector residents will be invited to
come over and cast their ballots"
Gen. Kotikov,s demands indicated
he not only wanted the withdrawal
of Western-Sponsored currency from
Berlin, but that he wanted nom
Communist leaders erased from the
ballot. The Russians have referred
to their political opponents in Ber-
lin as Fascists and warmongers. His
reply also indicated he wanted a
purge of the anti-C Communist press
and anti-Communist labor unions
The Russians admitted they were
increasing Communist police forces
in their sector of Berlin. They gave
no public explanation.
Reports from German railway
headquarters said the Russians
further tightened the blockade of
Western Berlin by requiring that
henceforth all freight trains from
the surrounding Russian zone be
routed through and unloaded in
the Soviet sector of the city. -

the next Senate with Democrats

gaining leadership. The present

licans and As Democrats.
Senator Hatch said the reports
of political activity in the New
Mexico race were contrary to any
thing he had heard Numerous
complaints have been received by

counsel for the group.
Hurley Gets Telegram.
IF any one will give me the name
Of a single Federal employe in
New Mexico who is violating the law
against political activities" Senator
Hatch said, II will personally
demand an immediate investigation
by the appropriate authority, and if
such charge is sustained by the fact,
the offending employe will be dis
charged.
Mr.. Scott made his charge in a
telegram to Gen. Hurley and made
public by the Republican National
Committee here. He said a visit by
Secretary of Interior Krug and his
aides to New Mexico indicate fla
grant violations of the Hatch Act"
and promised that mo expense will
be spared in prosecution of every
such violation"

tor and Governor who is opposing
Senator Revercomb, Republican. in
West Virginia-another close race
said he has received contributions
of s2,2l0 and has spent $2,520.60.
