The Communists also harassed but did not halt the movement of food to West Berlin by truck. Other food arrived by plane. Officials estimated 150,000 food packages would be given away to day in addition to the 250,000 al ready handed out in the first two days. Communist police began their campaign of arrests and threats to sabotage the program by scaring the East Germans away. They arrested scores who return ed to East Berlin laden with food. Thirty arrests were reported at one border crossing point alone. The first truckload of American food crossed the Soviet Zone and finally reached West Berlin after Communist guards delayed it at both ends of the isolated city’s highway link to the west. From the other side of the Iron Curtain, meanwhile, reports filter ed through of a vast widening in the purge of the rebellion-beset Com munist party. The West Berlin Socialist news paper, Telegraf, reported that 200 special commissions had been set up to investigate the conduct of all party members during the June rebellion. Another West Berlin paper, Der Tag, reported that 30 high officials in the secret police had been arrested since that group’s chief, Wilhelm Zaisser, was kicked out of his job last week. The paper added that one secret police official in Erfurt com mitted suicide to avoid arrest. East Germans Defy Red Police To Get Food ♦ BERLIN—Communist police ar rested scores of East Germans who accepted gifts of Western food today but they failed to check the hungry throngs surging through the Iron Curtain. A new executive position of gen eral manager for South Carolina has been created by the Southern Bell Telephone Co. C.

At the end of 1940 there were 68,139 Southern Bell telephones in service. Today there are 235,183. In the seven years since the end of World War II, telephone growth in the state has amounted to 146 per cent.
