Paintings and that it has All been in the hands of the polish army since the end of Chewar Olhs. The sunday times report of april 3 said the collection was in the Cracow province of Poland and that it was traced by British zoologist or. Peter Whitehead. The original autographed manuscripts disappeared in Eastern Europe in 1941 and for years were presumed destroyed. Polish authorities previously have denied All knowledge of their  last week the government controlled polish news Agency Pap issued an offi Cial acknowledgement of the existence of the collection the sunday times said. The manuscripts Are considered by experts As one of the world s most important collections. They include Over 100 works by Mozart perhaps a Quarter of All his music that survives i manuscript form. The existence of the collection came to Light when Whitehead received a letter from Poland s Foremost Art historian prof. Jan Bialostocki. The pole curator of foreign paintings at the National museum in Warsaw told him the manuscripts were in Good  had enlisted the pole s Aid in an attempt to find the manuscripts. The briton was primarily interested in a scientific inquiry involving unique natural history material evacuated from the prussian state Library in Berlin during Allied bomb ing raids. Me believed the collection and the material had been stored together and had vanished together. The music collection together with the other treasures that had been evacuated with it from the Berlin Library was found to have disappeared when the War ended when it failed to arrive at its destination the East German state Library. The latest sunday times report by Nigel Lewis said his sources now suggested that in addition to the manuscripts revealed april 3 there Are hundreds of Early printed scores including valuable first editions. Church music by Telemann and Buxtehude is said to be among the forgotten works. Plays letters paintings the sources say the total collection extends far beyond music into unpublished plays and correspondence and important material relating to 19lh Century German history. Lewis added that paintings by european artists of the 16th. 17th and 18th centuries also now were reported to be stored with the manuscripts. He continued these sources also Sug Gest that the manuscripts Are not in a Library in Cracow As was earlier thought but under polish army guard probably near Cracow. It appears that the Manu scripts were sequestered by the polish army and have remained in its  Poland suffered wartime invasion by Germany and after its defeat victorious soviet troops were stationed near the polish Village of Russau. This was where the germans had taken the treasures from  could be More natural at the end of the War asked Lewis than for the poles both to prevent the collections from returning to Germany which had taken so much from Poland and also to Stop them going to Russia where so Many great collections had  Possession negotiated he added it now seems that the East German and the polish governments have been negotiating the question of the collections Over a Long period culminating in a meeting at the end of february betwee the leaders of the two countries Eric Hon Ecker and Edward  said his sources suggested the in Tention was for Poland to retain All works written on polish soil while the great majority returned to their former Berlin Home. Letters to the editor training revision suggested i have seen Many variations of training in the army some right some wrong and lately mostly wrong. 1 want to Start with the expert infantry badge Eib and the skilled qualification test set. Now most Ems hate  of classes on 20 ways to disassemble a weapon. Every time we have a class there s a new Way to disassemble a weapon. Each one of these tests come once a year. My suggestion is to Combine All these tests and rate them by scores. Have a cer Tain score you have to have to pass set and a certain score you have to have to get the Eib. Instead of All these classes use practical applications during the Field problems. I have Learned More through practical application in the Field than any class i have had. About three months out of a year we go to the Field. I m not complaining that it s not enough but during those three month the training is not Good enough. Since we Are Here in Europe Why not have War games against our nato allies. Every time we go to the Field we always run across some of our nato allies anyway. Why not train with them the experience would come in Handy. They have different tactics than we have. So both of us could profit. And try to make it As real As possible have umpires so both sides know who s dead or who won. Reformer u pretty Good for that but you never see any Battles and not much enemy Contact. Tracks Are used too much and most of the units stay in them too  is not enough nuclear biological and chemical Abc training. I have never been in a simulated Abc attack no Simu lated nuke attacks no simulated air Spray and no Gas attacks. The umpires could Check and Sec if the right procedures were being carried out. What we need is More realistic combat training so in the next War if it Ever comes we would not be caught off guard. Very concerned Ema Schaf Wenburg Germany editor s note col. Robert  sr., chief.

I would like to address each of his  the set and Eib somewhat Par fit to be tied a while ago we read about president Carter s flair for wearing the same Necktie to important functions. The stars and stripes showed pictures of him with the same tie being worn at primary victories the inauguration and key  seems that Carter wears that same tie to these events because be May fed it brings Biro Good Luck. The article reflected that this would be bad news for Necktie makers because Carter could set a trend. Naturally the More frequently you Wear the same tie the fewer you will have to nothing else was heard on this for some time. Then one morning i unwrapped my newspaper and saw on the front Page Carter to push for cuban  of no i thought what next Fidel Castro plugging . Cigars once 1 took time to read the article. I discovered that the ties Carter was re Ferring to were relations with. Cuba. A Short time later i decided to Call a Friend of mine who is in the tie business Tosee if be read the articles.

Usa eur is aware that the amount of time spent on Abc training needs to be increased and the Quality of training improved. A number of initiatives have been taken. The soldiers manual identifies Abc tasks that the individual sen ice member has to be Able to perform As a part of the skill qualification test sati. A Model Abc training program is being developed for dissemination to All units which will provide the lesson plans necessary to instruct individuals on the skills they need to know to survive in an Abc environment. The 7th army training command is improving its capabilities at the major training areas Vita such As Grafen a Flor to allow platoon and company size nits to perform their Tow missions while moving through an area in which Abc events can be triggered.
