U.S. POLICY TO RUSSIA
SPEECH BY GENERAL MARK CLARK OCCUPATION OF AUSTRIA (Rec. 8 p.m.) WASHINGTON, Sept. 17. General Mark Clark, in a speech at the Overseas Writers’ Club, advocated a firm policy towards Russia and said the United States would retain a bridgehead in Austria until it had adjusted differences with the Soviet. General Clark, who is the American member of the Allied Control Council in Vienna, said: "We got along‘better by being firm and not giving when we could not give any longer.” He-added that Russia, although occupying Austria’s "bread basket," had not fulfilled the agreement with UNRRA to send food into the three western occupation zones, and appeared unlikely to do so.
