PRIVATE POTSDAM PAPERS

Washington, Dec. 4.

The State Department has run into unexpected snags in its efforts to get an early look at former President Truman's private papers on the wartime Potsdam conference, it was learned today.

The delay, together with the oncoming 1956 election campaign, has jumbled the Department's timetable for making public its Potsdam docu- ments and raised a question as to whether they will be published at all. Officials said no final de- cision had been made.
