S.r British Soldiers •y lh« Auaciatad Prm MOSCOW, Aug. 29—The official Communist newspaper Pravda print ed a group of dispatches from Eu rope today describing what its head lines asserted was strange and pro vocative behaviour of American and British troops and officers. One story quoted a Rome news paper as saying "drunken Amer ican soldiers fired on Italian police from automobiles” in Livorno and that hundreds of others fought Ital ians in a Venice cafe brawl. The report said 150 Allied soldiers fought with angry Italian crowds in Mestre. A Paris dispatch quoted "eyewit nesses” concerning "behaviour of certain British officers in Italy,** as serting that 60 hotel rooms were seized for use of an English colonel and his family. The article said that, in another instance, the equip ment of an Italian work shop was thrown into the street to make room for table tennis games. A dispatch from Budapest said a British general and an American general objected violently at an Al lied Control Council because the Hungarian government expressed a desire to cut off wine and liquor supplies to Allied officers. “It- seems alcoholic drinks have begun to play a disproportionately large part with some Allied repre sentatives,” Pravda said. A small country house in Somer set, England, originally built for $2,400, has been sold for $28,000. Gen. Drake Joins VFW; Survived Fall of Corregidor Brig. Gen. Charles C.
