European Correspondent Of The star
GENEVA. June 1l.-Secre-
tary Of State Herter and Soviet
Foreign Minister Gromyko met
today to decide whether Rus
sia's latest ultimatum on Ber-
lin leaves any room for
continuing the four power
talks.
Despite q clear effort by the
Russians to disclaim q take-it-
or-leave-it attitude. the ques-
ton Of whether ground for
further discussion could be
found was a serious one.
Mr.. Herter was expected to
repeat directly to Mr.. Gromyko
what he said in public yester-
day: That If the Russians stick
to their latest demands on
Berlin and German reunifica-
ton, there Is no point in con.
tinuing the talks.
Before the meeting Mr..
Herter met for 80 minutes
with his Western colleagues
British Foreign Secretary Lloyd
and French Foreign Minister
ECouve de Murville. Ambassa-
dol Wilhelm Grewe Of West
Germany also was present.
Agree On Rejection
With slight variations Of
emphasis, all three Western
delegations here are taking
very much the same line in re-
| jecting the new Russian pro-
posals. Although at yesterdays
public session Mr.. Herter was
the only one to reply in any
detail to Mr.. Gromyko, it Is
clear that the Russian plan as
it now stands is completely un-
acceptable to his colleagues as
well.
In particular, the West will
refuse to negotiate under the
threat of the one-year time
limit which Mr.. Gromyko has
now set for extending the allied
occupation rights in Berlin,
pending the identification Of
the country by an alderman
committee.
There is equal firmness in
rejecting Russian demands for
a drastic reduction Of the al
lied garrisons in the city and
insisting that any curtailment
of propaganda and intelligence
activities must be on a recipro-
cal basis.
Differ on Ending Talks
There are other objections,
almost as serious, that Mr..
Herter did not get around to
mentioning yesterday. There
is no possibility that the West
would accept an alderman
committee made up Of equal
numbers of East and West
Germans to work out the me-
chanics of a confederation.
Such q committee, Western
experts hold. would be doomed
from the outset and would
represent nothing more than
an effort to win recognition OF
the East German government
from the West.
This much said. however.

He also agreed with Secre-

would not result in a boost in
interest rates elsewhere.
The President Is also recon-

C&O Measure
includes Proviso
Permitting Dam
BY GRACE BASSETT
star stan Writer

A House Interior subcommit-
tee today broke q two-year
stalemate on Chesapeake a.
Ohio Canal legislation by re-
porting a bill with broad pro-
lection for both q park and
water supply.
Stripped from the measure
were a series Of complicated
compromises aimed at satisfy
ing both the National Parks
Service and Army Engineers.
AS sent to the full commit
tee. the bill should please park
proponents by providing:
/. For establishment of q ma
tional historical park along a
160-mile stretch Of the canal
from Great Falls to Cumber-
land, Md.
2. For construction Of a
scenic parkway within the tract
from Town Hill between Mary
lands Route 81 near Paw Paw,
w. Va. and Long Ridge road
near Woodmont. Md.
Amendment Added
An amendment designed to
guarantee that q water storage
dam could be built along the
Potomac River generally par
alleling the canal, if Army
Engineers recommend it in the
future, was written into the
bill this morning.
This proviso simply states
that any parkland shall be
freed for public non-park uses
If Congress subsequently orders
that use.
Pennsylvania's Representative
Saylor. ranking Republican on
the subcommittee, said the
amendment restated in appro-
pirate broad language the
standing law that one Congress
may not bind another. The
amendment as originally pro-
posed by Representative Ull-I
man, Democrat Of Oregon, was
more complicated.
1t restricted the Interior Sec
retary's spending Of park funds
until he had determined that
benefits could be expected prior
to the time any river facilities
might be built by the engi-
neers. If authorized by future
Congresses. The subcommittee,
in closed session. rejected this
stand by a vote Of 90.
The canal bill is expected to
be considered by the full In
terror Committee next Wednes-
day.
Foley-Lankford Victory
Clearance by the House sub
committee was regarded as a
major victory for Representa-
tives Foley and Landlord.
Democrats of Maryland, bill
sponsors. and park champions
who have urged passage.
Apparently discarded as too
detailed was a substitute bill
also sponsored by Mr.. Foley
that would prohibit park de-
velopment within a 30-mile
stretch between Great Falls
and Brunswick. Md, for at
least three years. This bar was
intended to permit a dam or
reservoir in the River Bend
area.
Army Engineers hope to
finish within three years o
comprehensive study of the
Potomac and recommend con-
struction needed to continue to
give Washingtonians drinking
water.
The fuss between engineers
and park officials helped to
block the park bill last year.
One version passed the Senate.
The House Interior Committee
substituted language barring
any park expenditure without
consultation with the Secretary
Of the Army, and the bill never
reached the House floor.
