On Incident

BERLIN, Nov. 4 CAP). The
Russians stopped another
United States Army convoy to-
day on the autobahn between
West Germany and West Berlin.
United States. Army officials
said the convoy was stopped at
Marienborn, the checkpoint on
the western end Of the super
highway.
Several hours later, q United
States Army spokesman an
nounced that q maneuver by
the American garrison In Ber-
lin scheduled for tomorrow
had been postponed for "a
hours. This was taken to mean
that the garrison had moved
into q state Of preparedness
because Of the Soviet action.
The Russians once more de-
manded that the Americans
get out Of their vehicles and
be counted, and the Americans
refused. The same dispute re-
suited in holdups Of American
conveys October 1912 and q
British convoy on October 1e.
Answers TO West
Today's Soviet action was
viewed here as the answer to
United States, British and
French letters to the comman-
der Of Soviet forces in East
Germany spelling out In detail
the conditions under which the
Western Allies would dismount
from conveys for Soviet count.
The Soviet officer at the check
point was quoted today as de-
claring 1t Is the Soviet and not

Although calling in Mr..

refused to call the CONVERSE
