New York, April 27,"
The press, while welcoming Soviet suggestions on the Berlin blockade, generally expresses doubt of the Kremlin's sincerity. "The Times," suggesting that it may be a Russian attempt to frustrate the Western plans for West Germany, said: "Under the circumstances it is only elementary wisdom for the West to remain on guard."
It declares that the airlift or- relrent from thele German pro- ganisation must remain intact. gramme, that they will proceed of a German It also stresses: "The Western with the creation powers must make it unequiva-government as the nucleus of an which cally plan that there will be non-Gerinan government.

U.S. NOTE TO RUSSIA ON BERLIN BLOCKADE
London, April 27.
The United States asked Russia today for a formal CHEERFUL
statement on when and on what conditions they will lift the Berlin blockade.
Dr. Philip Jessup, United States Ambassador-at- large, continued the exchange of views on the problem by delivering a note this afternoon to M. Jacob Malik, Russian Deputy Foreign Minis- ter, at the Soviet United Nations offices on Park Avenue.
The text of the note was not mado public. But it is understood to seek specific clarification on two points-an exact understanding as to what will be involved in any agreement to lift the block- ado: and a proposed time-table.

These days, some people don't think that tradition counts for much. But I know better. Pioneering my own business twenty years ago taught me that tradition is a priceless ingredient that you have to earn. It's not something you can buy on the open market. The way I look at it, every tradition has a pioneer for a father and its mother is experience.
Take the example of B.O.A.C.... Its more than 72,000 miles of world-wide air roules
to five continents and forty-two countries didn't just happen. There was always a 'first, time for every route. Because D.O.A.C. has the imagination and the determination to be and stay a leader, it always looks and plans ahead.
That's why it's not surprising that B.O.A.C. pioneered the air route between Britain and Australia over ten years ago.
Or that it was
the first and for two years the only airline to fly. the present. North Atlantic route as a two-way, year-around service. Nor is it surprising that B.O.A.C.'s. 30-years-old tradition of Speedbird service and experience is reflected by all-its personnel.
Yes, I say never underestimate the importance of tradition i
