LONDON, May 8 -)- German
civilians, a year ago rtunned by
the overwhelming might of Al
lied arms, looked on in amazement
today as green United State
troop, less than half of them arm

Frankfurt in celebration of the
victory in Europe.
The V-E day anniversary pass
ed virtually unnoticed in Brit
ain. In France a brief ceremony
wu held at the Arc de Triumphe.
In the soviet union the day was
marked by complaint of the
pre and radio with the way
Russia's allies were meeting the
problems of Europe.
In crushed Italy, V-E day was
a holiday but there was no air
of gaiety among a people de
pressed by the lack of food and
the feer of a harsh peace settle-
it.
