Leipzig, Germany, June 15 --W)-After a year of occupation by the Russian army, Germans here say hey have almost everything but ersonal freedom. During four days Leipzig, I with a score of Germans in 11 walks of life Most said they rould like the Americans to return.

Jut, in constant travel all occu- mtion zones during the past six nonths, I always have found tha a German believes life in any other zone is better than in his own. Some Germans believe the policy followed by Soviet military government is better than that of the western Allies. It is authoritarian In method, they admit, but they believe Germany needs authoritarian control at this stage of her postwar recovery if her economic reconstruction is to be achieved. Soviet Policy Positive. The Russian policy at least is positive, they say, and not negative as they claim it is i By GODFREY ANDERSON.

the American zone. People have to work because they means better rations know work Not to work means living just above starvation level. As one German put it: "The Germans are not essentially evil, but they have no free mind, no common sense, and there is not public opinion. We certainly are not ready yet for democracy as it is tnown in the west. The Russians give us positive leadership, to which we are accustomed, and a hope for the future." Red army occupation of Leipzig not obtrusive.

Relations with he Germans are kept on a businesslike basis and army discipline! seems stricter than in the American zone. Fraternization is frowned upon and seldom seen public. When Russians move into a house, they take only the rooms need and let the'German amily remain in what is left Only generals and high officers have louses to themselves. Keeps to Barracks. The Russians mostly keep to better than the atom bomb, that the Americans are weary of war and think only of returning home, that the Biitish still have German troops under arms their zone.

Among the Germans themselves rumors are widespread. Each con- of Russians moving east gives rise to new stones they are pulling out. Some think that the stripping of machinery from German factories--40 furniture factories are alleged to have been dismantled in the Leipzig area alone-means that the Red army is leaving an industrial vacuum on its western frontier as maneuvering ground for a future war. Others tell you that the army is being withdrawn and 1,600 are coming from Russia to set up a civilian government Nobody really knows what's true or false. Despite rumors, internal security seems good.

You hear no more shots fired in Leipzig at night than you would in any city of the western zones, and this though every Russian soldier is always armed. Germans say, however, that it is inadvisable to travel in the country at night.

There are no bands, parades, no organized sports spend their evenings drink- ng, playing cards, or singing ostalgic Slavic harmonies to ac- ordion music. Many Russian officers have their wives with them and drive them round in cars. There is one of- icers club in the city.

A clothing lies store where the wives can aop also offers vodka, Much nonsense has been written in the past about Red army occupation. For this the Russians themselves were perhaps in large measure to blame. They kept correspondents under close surveillance and did not permit them to move freely or talk openly with the German population. For four days during the Leipzig fair this blackout was lifted. We talked with whom we pleased and no one tried to propagandize us.

This must be said: I saw no sign of a "red terror" anywhere I went The Germans do not seem afraid of the Russians thoueh they respect them. They admit it is not safe to express an unfavorable opinion of Russian methods outside their homes. But they may listen to any radio station thcv please, they have no curfew, they seem reasonably conten! and th'Jr relations with the army troops are not unfriendly. Romians Are Serious. The Russian troops go about their business with a serious, purposeful air.

They seldom smile. Their altitude towards Americans varies. At the LPIJI Soviet soldiers repeatedly up to me to shake hands warmly. I saw one Russian enlisted man klne turns with an American captain at driving an electric car on the fairground speedway--and insisting on paying from the wad of bills clutched in hand I But another soldier pointed ns out to a German child and ssid "Look. Those are the v.jcfcad Americans who killed many poor Gem-ans." Russian officers are more reserved.
