POTSDAM PLANS
“SOMETHING WRONG’’ DISQUIETING SOVIET STEP Recd. 11 p.m. New York, Sept. 6. Something is going very wrong with the carrying out of the Potsdam decisions about the administration of Germany, said the “Daily Herald's” diplomatic correspondent. Marshal Zhukov’s recently appointed “German Government”* for the Russian-occupied zone, the correspondent added, seems quite contrary to everything agreed on al Potsdam. He points out that it was implicit in the Potsdam programme that there should be no zonal German governments. It was disquieting that the Russians should have taken such a step without consulting the Western Allies, but even more disquieting as foreshadowing a move towards the economic separation of eastern and western Germany.
