blockade persists.
The United States Air Force said
several hundred reserve pilots and
engineers who volunteer will be as
signed to the Berlin airlift after re-
ceiving special training at Great
Falls, Mont.
British engineers announced plans
to lengthen the runways at Gator
air base, their field in Berlin, from
800 to 1000 yards, so that opera
tions can be stepped up.
The Americans will place Douglas
Globemaster transports in regular
shuttle service over the Atlantic

from Westover field base in Massa-
chusetts to Frankfurt, for the airlift
C-s4s Taking Over Lift.
The Army has perfected, through
radar. a ground-controlled approach
(GCA system which can bring
planes to safe landings even when
pilots cannot see the ground. Air
officers say GOA can land plane in
Berlin every 38 minutes.
The airlift is being. converted COM
pletely to four -engined C-54 Sky
masters, which carry 10 tons. The
tWo-engined CATS, which carry
three tons, are being retired from
the lift.
The Russians continue to post
notices OF air maneuvers in the cor
ridors over Berlin, but yesterday
British and American airmen once
again said they saw no evidences of
such Soviet activity.
More Berlin Aid Demanded.
WeStern Germans were told by
American and British financial Of
f1cers yesterday to rewrite their bi-
zonal budget to include more finan-
cial help for blockaded Berlin.
The budget called for an outlay
of 408, 100000 marks of which 45,-
600 900 were for Berlin's city govern
ment, now in bankrupt condition
Ralph McCabe, financial adviser
Of EngleWood. N. j., said the sum
was niggardly and would last the
Berlin city government about six
weeks.
How much the two Western zones
can scrape up for Berlin's bare
treasury is a question. Mr.. Nc
Cabe said the bizonal budget showed
however, that there are too many
government employees, and that Off
cials are too intent on cutting taxes
In some cases, he said employees
in bureaus double or treble the
number even in Hitler's Third
Reich when bureaucracy f1ourished

Reds Ask Withdraw
Of Military Missions
Maintained in Berlin
BY the Associatsd Press

BERLIN, Oct. 13.-The Rus
slams have suggested that ma
tions maintaining military mis-
Sions here close them and with
draw from Berlin.
There are at least Is such mis-
sions accredited to the four-power
Allied Control Council. They look
after the interests of their govern
ments here.
The Soviet official press said the
subject of missions had been
preached by Marshal VASTLY D
Sokolovsky, Soviet commander in
Germany, to the American, British
and French commanders.
Marshal Sokolovsky was reported
to have said: The missions were
accredited to the Allied Control
Council. But now the control coun-
Gil no longer exists. So how can we
talk about accredited missions?"
! Allied Position Undisclosed.
The Soviet report said the West
ern military governors had not dis
closed their stand on the Russian
proposal.
The control council has not met
since March 20 when the Russians
stalked out, declaring the council
has ceased to exist" The Western
powers have never recognized this
unilateral attempt at dissolving the
four power body.
The four military governors met
last month in the Allied Control
Authority building for technical ne
gotiations on the blockade crisis. in
connection with diplomatic talks in
| Moscow.
Marshal Sokolovsky is believed to
have raised the issue of discontinue
ing military missions at that time.

bourg The Netherlands, Norway,

Potomac Telephone Co. and unions
representing $500 workers with
hope of reaching a settlement be-
fore a Thursday midnight deadline
The District unions, like eight
other divisions of the Communica-
tions Workers of America, have
Synchronized their wage talks to
the deadline, signaling the end of
a 60-day period required for legal
strike under the Taft Hartley Act.
Little prospects for strike were
seen, however, since Bell System
companies have made offers to all
the bargaining locals. In Washing
ton, union spokesmen said the Of
fers would average about $3.50
weekly increases for plant workers
and between 81 and So a week for
operators. They called the offers
unsatisfactory.
The 10 CWA divisions with nego-
tiations geared to tomorrow's dead
line have contracts calling for two
wage reopening periods tn three
years.
Altogether about 10000 CWA
members are bargaining across the
Nation now. Thus far there have
been no settlements for operating
employees. Bell System companies
have signed agreements with about
$4,000 installation and manufac-
turing employees af1iliated with CWA
and about 10000 employees belong
ing to separate independent unions.
Company spokesmen here said
c. & P.'s latest offers. ranging from
81 to So for operators and clerical
workers, and from 81 to S. for plant,
accounting and commercial en-
ployes, conformed to the commu-
nifty pattern of wages.
