ALLIES DIFFER IN BERLIN TACTICS

Reds Favor Haste: Yanks

Prefer Co-ordination. By JACK FLEISCHER United Press Staff Correspondent BERLIN, July 12.—~The Russian approach to -the problem of governing Berlin summed up something like this today: | “Let's get things running as soon | as possible and worry about perfection later.” The Americans and British were moving more slowly, with nope of co-ordinating machinery that would work smoothly and efficiently from the beginning. The Russians reopened the schools in Berlin late in May. They told the Germans not to worry too much now about the teachers, except to keep out all active Nazis and confine the work to such non-con-troversial subjects as the three “R's” without dipping into history and politics. The Americans and British in their zones expected to wait some | time, until nonsNazi teachers are found and non-Nazi textbooks | printed, before reopening the! schools, » | The
