L Soviets withdraw from zonal borders in Germang--General McNarney
reports "definite indications" that Soviet troops along borders opiosite
the US zone are being replaced by Germans. Small Soviet detachments
apparently are remaining at certain key points, however, and Soviet troops
are still present in the general border areas.
2. US to support on-the-spot Greek border investiaon--The State Depart-
ment has advised US Embassy Athens, in connection with the Greek com-
plaint to the Security Council, that at present "it is envisaged that the US
will strongly support on-the-spot-investigation and, if necessary, make
amply clear the fact that there is more reason for such investigation now
than there was in September."
& Greece's need for transt ort aircraft--US Military Attache Athens reports
an imperative need of aid to the Greek armed forces and declares that the
British plan to issue sufficient equipment to increase the Army from
98,200 to approximately 115,000. Emphasizing the "extreme importance"
of air supply for present operations, the MA requests a statement of US
policy on providing the Greek Air Force with 8 C -47 aircraft,
4., Turkish Ambassador skeptical of Soviet conciliation--The US Represent-
ative to the UN reports that Ambrassador to the US Baydur, the Turkish
UN representative, believes that the new Soviet conciliatory line is attri-
butable to the firm stand taken by the US. Baydur, who was nine years
in the Turkish Embassy at Moscow, declared, however, that despite Molo-
tov's statements he "could not possibly conceive" of the Soviet permit-
ting any effective inspection of the Soviet military position,
