Received Thursday, 11.35 a.m. LONDON, July 14. Russia has replied to the British, French and American notes on the situation in Berlin. So far the contents of the reply have not been revealed. When the Russian Ambassador, M. Zarubin, delivered the reply to Britain's note Mr. Ernest Bevin, the tJ.S. Ambassador, Mr. L. W. Douglas, and Sir William Strang, who had been in "continuous session," studied the note. Mr. Bevin will, as soon as possible, discuss the note with the Cabinet Minister of State, Mr. Hector McNeil, who received M. Zarubin. The Foreign Office, in Mr. Bevin's absence, described the reply as "unsensational." The inference is that it is not a flat rejection. Mr. Marshall, in Washington, said that publication customarily would be a matter for the Soviet, but added that if the Russians did not release the contents soon the Western Powers would eonsider doing so.
