ANKARA, Turkey (A') - Turkish mili-
tary commanders moved in yesterday
and took control of five U. S. bases con-
cerned primarily with intelligence gath-
erinsg, a Foreign Ministry spokesman
announced, Be said 20 more installa-
tions would be taken over today.
In Washington, a US, State Depart-
ment spokesman confirmed rhat all Am-
erican military activities in Turkey have
been suspended but said the Turkish
government had not asked for the re-
moval of U. S. personnel.
TURKEY ALSO stopped importing fuel
for American military jets, the Minis-
try of Customs announced. Two- squad-
rons of phantom jets are stationed at the
Incirlik base.

Bouse of Representatives' refusal to
ease an arms embargo against Turkey
imposed after its invasion of Cyprus, af-
fecte three major bases yesterday.
They are Karamursel, southeast of Is-
tanbul, ad two radar bases at Sinor on
the Black Sea Coast and Pirinclik near
the southeastern town of Diyarbakir.
Thse to other bases were identified
as Belbasi, near Ankara, and Karga-
borun, nea the Black Sea coast.
THE STATE Department spokesman
in Washington, Robert Anderson, told
a newvs conference the United States
does nsot agree with the Turkish view
that the 1969 defense agreement be-
tween the two. countries has lost its
validity because of the Rouse vote.
"In our view, the.1969 agreement re-
mainss in effect until renegotiated," said
Anderson.
The Turkish cabinet declared the
agreement invalid on Friday when ft or-
dered a halt to all American activit' at
the bases.
TURKISH officials said yesterday's
operation went "smoothly and without
confusion" according to a plan drawn
up over the weekend by the general
staff after consultation with high ,U. S.
militaryofficials,
Reports reaching Ankara said no
Turkish troop movements were evident

around the bases although Turkish sen-
tries controlled movement of traffic in
and out of the installations.
"Things are proceeding quietly and
without fuss," a loyal source said.
THE FOREIGN Ministry said the
bases put under Turkish control would
be operated by a Turkish commander
working in cooperation with the highest
rankitng U. S. officer at each installation.
U.S. personnel remained on the bases
Monday although, one official said,
"wills nothing to do many may take long
vacations."
Apparently hearing this ot, local
newnsen reported seeing some Amen'-

lies. Thsey gave no estimates of numbers,

WARSAW, Poland - President Ford,
welcomed by a estimated 250,00 Poles
as the second American chief executive
to visit Warsaw, joined Polish leader Ed-
ward Gierek yesterday in praising the
controversial European security agree-
men01 to be signed this week in Helsinki.
In a joint statement after their brief
talks, Ford and Gierek, whose official
title is first secretary of the Communist
party, said the nonbinding code of con-
duct can "become a genuine and strong'
stimulus for positively shaping relations
among the participant states,"
THE STATEMENT did not mention the
docusnent's references to the inviolability
of post-World War II European frontiers
-a point that has led some American
politicians to criticize Ford for planning
to attend. the 35-nation Helsinki meeting.
When he addresses the Helsinki meet-
ing, Ford is expected to emphsasize that
