COUNTER-MEASURES MAY
BE IMPOSED IN BERLIN
Washington, February 2. U.S. State Department announced tonight that it is actively contemplating counter-measures against Russia in retaliation for the "creeping" traffic hold-up in Berlin,'
A State Department official accused Russia of violating the Paris agreement of June last year, which ended the Berlin airlift, by inter- fering with the free flow of road and rail transport between Berlin and the Western Zones.

YUGOSLAV PROTEST TO SOFIA
Belgrade, February 2. Yugoslavia today protested against the infiltration by Bulgaria of terrorist and sub- versive bands into her ter- -ritory.
A note sent by the Yugoslav Ministry of Foreign Affairs to the Bulgarian Embassy hare spoke of the recent trial of Bulgarian splos
at Skoplje as giving ample proof of Bulgaria's hostile policy,"
The trial is one more proof that the Bulgarian Government in Its hostile policy against Yugok- direct lavia · has undertaken action with the purpose of pre- venting the building of socfailsm and the separation" from Yugos- lavia of parts of its territory, realising in this way the old Bu!- garian Chauvinist plans."
