of warehouses. 1t said materiel
such as petroleum. ammunition
and food would continue to be
stocked abroad.
The tests will continue for one

Germany that might be closed
as a result will not be deter
mined until the trial is COM
pleted

supplied. In a written reply. the
Army said 1T is not contem-
plated" that it will be disposing
