Berlin, Oct. 28. German propaganda attempts to split the Allies are beginning to bear fruit, following the open rifts between the East and West that develop- ed during the Paris Conference and the 'con- troversy between Russia and the Western Powers on German reparations. German factions began exploiting such differ- ences during the recent Berlin political cam- paigns. The Russians backed the Communist dominated SED Party and the British gave more or less open support to the Socialist in- -clined Social Democratic Party.
