BERLIN, Aug. 19.-Sections of
the Russian-controlled German
press charged today that contra
dictory attitudes of the Western
powers begged down Moscow
talks on the Berlin crisis and the
German problem.
These newspapers made the
charges of obstructionism along
with a renewed propaganda broad
side against Western occupation
policies and Berlin'S anti-Commu-
mist city government. The city gov
eminent has just made known ii
may issue its own currency in an
attempt to unravel the divided city's
East-West monetary snarl.
The Moscow talks among repre-
sentatives of the four big powers
are reported nearing an end. The
Western diplomats there were con-
ferring again today on the status
Of their negotiations with Prime
Minister Stain and Foreign Minis
ter Molotov.
Continued Deadlock Hinted.
The intensity of the attacks by
the Communist press here on the
city government and the Western
powers seemed to indicate that the
deadlock is continuing on major
issues in Moscow. At the start OF
the Moscow talks, the Communist
press of Germany had soft-pedaled
such attacks.
One Communist newspaper charg-
ed the Western diplomats had eX-
pressed agreement with proposals of
Mr.. Stain at the start of the Mos
COW talks, then suddenly reversed
themselves when they took the
matters up with Mr.. Molotov. The
Berliner Zeitung and the National
zeitung gave this version a big dis
play, attributing it to Trustworthy
Paris sources"
Their account said: The West
agreed with Mr.. Stain that only
Soviet-sponsored currency should
circulate in Berlin; that East and
West both should lift restrictions on
traffic between Berlin and Western
Germany; that representatives of
the West agreed to a conference to
consider the problem of all Ger

Long suffering Boston fans have two winners to cheer today-the first place Braves and Ted Williams Of the Red Sox.

 Williams puffed his batting aver age to. .395 by driving in seven runs in the Red Sox' 12-4 romp over the Chicago White Sox. Even at this early date, it is not difficult to pie ture a 400 season for the slim slug ger.
 Ralph Hammer, a non-winner un- til yesterday, dropped New York out of the lead when he pitched the Chicago cubs to 3-1 victory.

SUSPENSE OPENS
 SUNDAY AS BILL
 AT 10TH CENTURY

Suspense" opens at the 20th Gen. tury Theatre Sunday night for only a two day run and although 1t fea- lures elaborate and especially beau- tifm ce-skating numbers, performed by the incomparacle Belita, there is a tense drama unfolded that over shadows the more spectacular as- poets.
 And Belita is only one of the stars of this unusual production, since equal prominence is given to Barry Sullivan, Bonita Granville, Albert Dekker and Eugene Palette. The established talents of these time tried players combine to give the picture an utterly convincing quality.
 In the story, Belita is the star performer at a great ice palace owned by her husband, Dekker. Sul- livan, a down-and-oute with a questionable past, drifts into Los Angeles and secures menial job with the show achieving quick ad- vancement when he proves to be a man with showman-like ideas. He soon forces his way into the affec- tions of Belita; and her husband, discovering the situation, plots re- venge.
 Tn the snow-bound mountains where Sullivan has followed the couple, the jealous husband hides on mountainside and shoots at the intruder below, only to start a crashing snowslide in which he him self is engulted. From this point the story proceeds, with ever-growing suspense, to a climax which literally leaves the audience limp.

 The conflict ensues when Gill Mac-Bean (Thomas MitchelD |, father of the dead soldier, discovers that Henry Carson (Johnson) has fought on the Union side.
 Despite the fact that Carson has helped him to save his crops from raging storm and has joined him in his fight against mysterious night raiders who have heen pillaging and burning the farmers barns, the hardened Rebel cannot tolerate the thought of his daughter, Lissy Anne. falling in love with the Yankee stranger.
 It is in the pictures thrilling climactic scene in which MacBean attempts to kill Carson that the conflict is resolved and Carson's Itrue position made clear. g.
