SOME RELAXATION BY RUSSIANS

(Rec. 11.55) LONDON, April 16. General L. Clay, the American Commander in flic Berlin area, lias denied the report that the American Superfortresses which have arrived from the United States in Germany, have been ordered by him to make a sortie over Berlin city area. This is reported by the Berlin correspondent of the Associated Press.

The Associated Press correspondent at Vienna states that at a meeting there to-day of the Allied Control Council, the Allied military commanders are

expected to protest against the traffic restrictions there imposed by the Russians, in spite of the fact that the Russians have made some relaxations.

Russian guards at a barrier which they established yesterday, on the road from A ienna to the United States airport at Tulin, are no longer requesting the production of the Four-Power and grey pass. Instead they are checking through Americans upon the production of the War Department identity cards. Earlier the Russians relaxed their restrictions regarding the British.
