Britain Can Continue
Supply for Two Years
By the Associoted Press

BERLIN, Oct. 5.-The Russians
notified the Western Powers to-
day they plan parachute prac-
tice in the air corridors used by
American and British planes
supplying blockaded Berlin.
The Soviet warning. posted in the
four-power Berlin Air Safety Gen.
ter, said the drill was to begin to-
day from a 2,500-foot altitude.
The notice did not specify how
many men or planes were involved,
or how long the exercises would
last. The locale stipulated is in the
Bueckeburg-Berli corridor, which
is used by all airlift planes on their
return fight to Western Germany
The exercises may be part of So
Wet fall military maneuvers which
German reports had said were set
for early october.
Meanwhile the British handed the
Russians a protest over yesterday S
buzzing of British airlift plane by
Yak fighter.
No End of Blockade Seen.
The protest said the Russian plane
dived within 200 feet of the trans
port in the northern air corridor
about 40 miles west Of Berlin.
The Western powers gave renewed
indication they expect no early lift
ing of the Soviet land blockade, by
ordering the withdrawal of about
500 railroad carloads of coal which
had been standing for weeks at the
British Soviet zone frontiers ready
to roll if the ban was raised.
The trains now have been pulled
back to the West and some of their
coal cargoes taken for the airlift.
American authorities rejected to-
day a Soviet allegation of mass
violations" of flying rules in the
Soviet zone corridors.
