The Berlin blockade of 1948 involved the Western Powers in the
most dangerous and direct clush yet with the Sovjet. The air-lift was
a success.
Then in a take-it-or- leave-it note last November the Soviet ..... Union gave notice of her latest plans for "neing the boil" of Berlin.
The Russians say
1. THAT THEY REGARD
the all previous agreements on status of Berlin as null and vold, The Potsdam agreement VAM to apply only to "an meuet inilisi control period."
2. ON MAY 27 they will withdraw from the Soviet sec- for of Berlin, transferring all their rights and responsibilities to the East German Government, Thereafter 17 East German Government will be responsible for the road, rail, end air pas- sar?s between Western Ger many and Rerlin

It is the size of the bed that is im- portant, according to Dr Joseph Kamiya, director of Chicago University's dream and sleep project,
"It doesn't matter if you sleep on boards as long as you are used to them," Dr Kamiya declared. Tho amount of rest will be the same as if you slept on the downlest of mattresses,"
But because the average person moves in his sleep from 20 to 40 times a
