U. 5. MaySeek
Week sRecess
In Big Talks

GENEVA, July rs (AP).-
Secretary Of State Christian A.
Herter may propose next week
a long recess of the Big -Four
conference, unless Russia
softens her terms for easing the
Berlin crisis. But he chances
both Western and Soviet OPP
position.
AS the foreign ministers con-
ference went into its ninth
week, the Allies were divided
over whether their talks with
the Soviet Union are progress
sing. Russia's Andrei Gromyko
has been talking about the need
to keep seeking a Berlin settle
ment formula.
The parley was in recess
today with only the Soviet
Foreign Minister scheduled to
remain here throughout the
week end.
Mr.. Herter was expected to
return here tonight after a fly
ing goodwill visit to West Ber-
lin, his first visit to the divided
city since becoming secretary
of State. Britain'S Selwyn Lloyd
went to London for consulta-
ton while Maurice Couve de
Murville of France was on a
trip to Brussels and Paris.
Meet Late Monday
The next meeting is set for
late Monday, a secret session at
Mr.. Lloyd's residence. Mr.. Her.
ter repeatedly hopes to get some
intimation at that time whether
there is any chance that Mr..
Gromyko will give way on the
key issue - his proposal for
creation of a committee of East
and West Germans to negotiate
on a German peace settlement.
The West repeatedly has re-
jected this demand. Mr.. Gro
myko has been insistent in de-
handing it's acceptance as the
price for his agreement to a
Berlin truce. The Western min
listers say they will never agree
to any new machinery granting
Communist East Germany
equality with West Germany.
Mr.. Herter is reported to be
peSSimistic about breaking the
deadlock. Mr.. Couve de Muir
vile is said to feel the same.
Mr.. Lloyd, however, mas been
more optimistic.
This division in the Western
camp developed Thursday and
Friday. 1t was demonstrated
after a luncheon meeting OF
the four yesterday when Brit
ish officials said they thought
a little progress was made.
American informantS said
there was no change at all in
the situation.

Concession By GrOmykO


The British progress report
was based on the fact that Mr..
Gromyko finally engaged in an
exchange of views on problems
directly involved in working
out a Berlin stopgap deal in
stead of insisting that his all
German committee take prior
ity in the discussion. The
Americans said this was mean
ingless since he still insists no
agreement can be made on
Berlin until his committee plan
is accepted.
Despite Mr.. Gromyko's re-
fuSal to back down, Mr.. Lloyd
has hopefully suggested to his
allies that if some agreement
can be reached on Berlin it
might be possible to get Mr.
Gromyko to agree to pass the
German proposal over to a
summit conference.
Even if Mr.. Herter and Couvc
de Murville accepted this tactic
and it was then sold to Mr..
Gromyko, formidable problems
would continue to block a sue
ceSSful conclusion of the con-
ference.
The Soviet foreign munster,
for example, has suggested a
truce should last for 18 months.
The West wants it to run for
at least 80 months.
Troop Ceiling Proposal
The West has offered to put
a ceiling on its total troop
strength in Berlin-about H.
900 men-as part of a Berlin
settlement. Mr.. Gromyko has
talked about cutting this force
by half or more.
The West has also offered to
tone down propaganda and
subverSive activities in West
Berlin, but only if the same is
done in East Berlin. Mr.. Gro
myko said earlier in the con-
ference he would not accept any
restraints for East Berlin be-
cause that is the capitol of the
East German Communist re-
gime.
When the conference re-
Sumed July Is after a three
week recess, Mr.. Herter said he
planned to stay about 81 days.
Last Monday and Tuesday he
told Mr.. Gromyko he would not
stay indefinitely to carry on ne
gotiations which were not get
ting anywhere.
Mr.. Herter's aides say the
secretary now thinks the talks
should be concluded by the end
of next week, or at the latest
in the first part of the follow
ing week.

In the early days baking was very
hard work. Grain was hand cut,

ovens in Colonial homes had to be
superheated and the fires drawn
out before baking could proceed.

book form by Alfred A. Knopf:
