Lloyd 10 Calm
British Fears

LONDON, April 10 (AP) -
Foreign Secretary Selwyn Lloyd
is expected Monday to try to
calm British fears that the
United States is playing with
dynamite in the air corridors to
Berlin.
Diplomatic informants said
today Mr.. Lloyd probably will
assure Parliament that the
British government is sure the
United States will not stir up
the Russians with more high
altitude flights.
The British press has ex-
pressed apprehension that Unit
ed States defiance of a Soviet
imposed 10,000-foot ceiling on
flights to Berlin may provoke a
clash or blow up the Foreign
Ministers conference set for
Geneva May IL.
The British newspapers are
saying the air corridor dispute
has provoked the most serious
U.S. British misunderstanding
since the United States opposed
the British invasion of Suez in
1856.
Soviet propaganda organs did
their best to widen the breach.
The Moscow radio said three
recent United States high-alti-
tude flights were blackmail
aimed at aggravating the in
ternational situation. The off,
cial Soviet News Agency TaSs
distributed an item saying, "a
new wave of indignation and
anxiety is sweeping Britain"
While not mentioning the
flights, Prime Minister Macmil-
Ian took an optimistic view of
the prospects for a united West
ern stand in forthcoming East
West negotiations on Germany
and other European problems.
IAN agreed Western position
will soon be reached for the
difficult negotiations which are
before u.s." he told a rally Of
young Conservatives.

this country to soft-pedal the

The United States has told
Britain it intends to use these

American forces in West Berlin.

prepared to negotiate a freeze

to agree to a troop limitation,

Western Europe welcomed to-
day the nomination Of Chris
tan Herter as United States
Secretary Of State and ex-
pressed belief he will carry on
the mo appeaSement" policies
Of John Foster Dulles.
Expressions Of approval for
the nomination we're heard in
Europe from West Berlin TO
London.
A statement from Prime Min
lister Macmillan's Office said.
THE Prime Minister has
asked the Foreign Secretary to
send his congratulations and
good wishes to Mr.. Herter."
Foreign Secretary Selwyn
Lloyd said he was delighted.
Germans See same Policy
Il am confident" said Mr..
Lloyd, that Mr.. Herter will
maintain the close co-opera-
ton and intimate consultation
between our governments in
the field Of foreign policy, on
which so much depends"
West Berlin's city govern
ment spokesman, Hans Hirsch-
field, said:
I'VE are convinced that
Herter will continue the foreign
political line which has been
represented by President Eisen-
hover and John Foster Dulles
especially since he has been one
of Dulles closest associates in
the State Department.
West German Socialists
Joined government circles in
hailing Mr.. Herter's noinina-
tion-though for different rea-
sons. The Socialists expect him
to be more flexible in his out
look than Mr.. Dulles was. So
cialist Chairman Fritz Erler
anticipating Mr.. Herter's ap-
pointment, wrote of him as a
man who weighed things care
fully but did not shut out new
ideas.
In Paris, Premier Michel
Debre S Office said: =
THE appointment is, OF
course, no real surprise. We
recognize Mr.. Herter asa man
who has extensive experience
with diplomatic problems. We
also appreciate his outStand-
ing human qualities"
Concerned Over Arthritis
Mr.. Herter is little known to
most Europeans. But there
have been expressions of con-
Germ that his chronic arthritis
may prove a handicap in the
rigorous duties of his high
Office.
The London Evening News, in
a dispatch from Washington,
said Mr., Herter will be-unlike
Mr.. Dulles-a mostly desk
bound Secretary of State.
Because Of this" said the
News, 'he will rely heavily on
