Gromyko Holds
Key as Pur'ey
Reopens July Is
By CROSBY S. MOVES

Dy NANOODA De ANO III
European Correspondent Of The Star
PARIS, July ALLIED diplo-
mats here see a reasonably good
chance that an agreement on
Berlin will be reached when
the Geneva Foreign Ministers
Conference resumes a week
from Monday.
This view. at odds with the
more pessimistic position being
taken in Western capitals, is
based on the hope that Soviet
Foreign Minister Gromyko will
not tougher his position on
Berlin. 1t also assumes that
tough statements being heard
from Premier Khrushchev are
being made largely for propa-
ganda purposes.
The experts conce ie that any
agreement reached on Berlin
would be a very limited ono-a
temporary "modus vivendi"
rather than a permanent s0lu-
ton. But they fol it might
open the way for a summit
confer nee later in tllessv ner
or in the fall.
Contrast In WIS
From the GUST of the nogo-
tiations there has been marked
contrast between the state
ments of Mr.. Grom ko in &C.
neva and the much tougher
speeches of Premier Klrush-
chev in Moscow and this is
a complicating factor.
Perhaps the greatest element
of doubt at this point, how
ever, is the attitude of the
Western ministers themselves.
The question is whether they
will be willing to accept the
Russian proposals on Berlin as
a basis for resuming negotia-
tons or continue to ignore
/ them as they have done so far.
Draw Gloomy Picture
There appears to be a good
deal of calculation in current
pessimism of top Western lead
ers. Secretary of State Herter
and President Eisenhower
have drawn by far the gloom
lest picture of the Russian
position and have chung to the
most negative estimate of the
progress made during the open
ing phase of the talks. But to
a lesser degree even the Brit
ish have gone along with what
is apparently an agreed upon
Allied line during the confer
ence recess.
This line is simply that the
Russians have not moved at
all on their original demand
that the allied occupation in
Berlin should come to end
within a fixed period Of
time. Beyond this the Allies
now claim to be persuaded that

Western hemisphere diplo-

gency meeting of American
foreign ministers to deal with
the explosive situation in the
Caribbean.
Informed sources here say a
move to call such a meeting
could come very soon.
One argument being used for
early action is the suggestion
by President Eisenhower at his
news conference Wednesday
that the Organization of Amer
lean States take the initiative
in trying to resolve problems
creating tension in the area.
Another is the request of the
Dominican Republic to the
