Soviet Newsmon Gets
A Kennedy Exclusive

HYANNIS PORT. Mass, Nov
25 (AP). - President Kennedy
gave an exclusive interview to-
day to the editor of the Soviet
newspaper Izvestia, who said
they touched on many world
problems, including Berlin.
The interviewer was Alexei T.
Adzhubei, son-in-law of Soviet
Premier Khrushchev.
Without going into details of
his questions, and the answers
he got from the President dur
ing the two-hour interview, Mr..
Adzhubei said the session was
partly questions and answers,
and partly just discussions.
I'VE had a very interesting
conversation-and a very i'm
portant conversation for om
understanding of many i'm
portant problems" Mr.. Ad-
zhubei said.
Kennedy Uses Rocking Chair
After his interview with the
President, he returned to the
White House press head
quarters in a hotel, sat in on
a briefing session by White
House Press Secretary Pierre
Salinger, and then took the
floor to be interviewed himself.
Mr.. Adzhubei, a chunky man
of 81 with a shock of wavy
blond hair, by chance chose the
same clothing the President
had for the interview. Both
were blue suits and neckties
and white shirts.

MOSCOW, Nov. as (AP).-
The Soviet Union today eased
the pressure on Finland,
abruptly dropping demands for
defense consultations with its
little neighbor for the time
being.
Returning from talks in ST.

Finnish President Urho Kek-
konen said he was gratified the

konen can return home a hero.

He got Mr.. Khrushchev to

that might have ended with
Soviet bases installed on Fin

neutrality seriously impaired.

u. .S.-Soviet Talks
On Berlin Dispute
Seen in Early 81
KhrushcheV
And De GuuIle
Still Uncertain
By John M. HIGHToWER
Associated Press staff Writer

Associated Press Staff Writer
United States officials fore
see the possibility of negotia-
tiens between the Western
powers and Russia early next
year on a peaceful settlement
of the Berlin crisis.
But authorities said yester-
day two problems must be dealt
with before such negotiations
can be considered reasonably
certain. One problem is to win
the agreement of French Presi-
dent de Gaulle, who is in
London this week end confer
ring with British Prime Min
lister Macmillan.
The other problem is to get
some indication from Soviet
Premier Khrushchev that he is
prepared to negotiate for a
compromise settlement instead
of insisting On his demand that
West Berlin be made a free
city"
Adenauer Flexible
The talks here last week be-
tween President Kennedy and
German Chancellor Adenauer
gave the Western powers a
major start on resolving dis
putes and misunderstanding
in their own ranks-a step that
had to be taken before they
could seriously consider negoti-
ations with the Soviet Union.
Mr.. hdenauer is scheduled to
meet with De Gaulle in Paris
Thursday.
The 85-year-old West Ger
man leader, often regarded as
the personification of rigid pol.
icy positions in relations with
Russia, was represented after
the Washington talks by both
United States and German dip
lomats as having shown con-
siderable flexibility here on
Berlin issues.
This strengthened Kennedy
administration hopes that a
basis for fully agreed Western
negotiating policies would be
worked out by the middle of
next month when United
States, British, French and
West German foreign ministers
meet in Paris.
The decisions of those four
then would be presented to
a meeting of the North At
lantic Treaty Council with the
aim of winning NATO-wide
support.
If SOviets Are Reasonable
West German Foreign Minis
ter Gerhard Schroeder, who
was here for the Adenauer-
Kennedy conference, was re-
ported in dispatches from Bonn
yesterday to have told parlia-
mentary members of Ade-
nauer's Christian Democratic
Party that he looks for East
West negotiations on Berlin
early next year.
Mr.. Kennedy and Mr.. Ade-
nauer announced they had
reached cement which
would permit peaceful reso-
luton of this CBerlinD crisis
through negotiations if there
is reasonablenesS on the part
of the Soviet Union" .
They agreed, officials said.
that there could be no bar
gaining with Russia over basic
Western rights to keep troops
in Berlin. to hold access routes
to the city open and to main
tain close economic ties be-
tween West Berlin and West
Germany.
Mr.. Kennedy is reported to
have given Mr.. Adenauer flat
assurance that in spite of ru-
morS and reports to the con-
tarry in recent months, he
never had any intention of
yielding on those vital interests.
At the same time, Mr.. Aden-
auer is reported to have told Mr..
Kennedy that he is prepared
for negotiations on marginal
issues related to the Berlin

Metro Study
Matthias, BroyhiII.
To Seek PurIeys
On Area Issues
By WILLIAM MacDOUGALL
Star staff Writer

Star Staff Writer
Two Washington area Con-
gresSmen said yesterday that
, they will sponsor a study next
year covering metropolitan
government for the National
Capital region.
Both legislators, Representa-
tives Matthias and Broyhill, Re-
publicanS of Maryland and Vir-
ginia, respectively, ,said they
would initiate top-level dis
cuSsions in an attempt to deter
mine whether metropolitan
government has anything to
offer this area.
Mr.. Matthias, originator of
the proposal, said he would
invite area leaders Of all juris-
dictionS to confer on such
matters as mass transportation,
highways, and communications.
The conferences, he indicated,
would probably begin some
time after Congress reconvenes
on January 10. Mr.. Broyhill
said he would support the study
idea because the area should
be alert to any possible i'm
provementS in solving regional
problems.
Mr.. Matthias said he hoped
the study would include a look
at the Miami Metro plan which
provides for a "super-govern-
ment" with jurisdiction over
many activities in Dade Coun-
ty, Florida.
Area Was. Split
That area, like Metropolitan
Washington today, was once
split into many jurisdictions,
often duplicating each other
with services and sometimes
in direct conflict with neigh
boring communities.
I'VE need to take a look at
the 20th-century alternatives
to the county system" Mr.. |
Matthias declared. After all, |
economically and sociologically, |
the Washington area is one
unit"
He added, however, he would |
oppose legislation to create any
sort Of a super government"
even on a limited basis, unless
1t were generally acceptable
to the area.
Both legislators emphasized
they had no intention to curb .
local autonomy.
Nothing would be accom-
plished by removing such things
as parks, schools and police
from local control" Mr.. Broy-
hill said. What we should ap-
proach in this study are mat
ters Of common concern such |
as transportation and commu-
nication and possibly water
and sewerage"
Would Support Plan
He noted. however, that all |
OF us should be constantly SEEK
ing improvements in the metro |
politan approaches to prob
lems," and said he would whole
heartedly support Mr.. Matthias
study plan.
The National Capital Trans
portation Agency, created by
Congress to plan for just such |
an area approach, recently was
criticized in the District and
Maryland, for recommending a
delay in Inner Loop highway
construction.
Although the recommended
tion later was overruled. one
suburban group, the Maryland
National Capital Park and
Planning Commission, charged
that the agency had disre-
garded area needs. The Mary
land planners recommended
taking the problem to Congress
in company with Virginia Of
ficials.
No Easy Solutions
Mr.. Broyhill said he expected |
no easy solutions to area prob
lens.
Even if all local Jurisdictions
would be satisfied with a
metro plan, he pointed out,
there would remain the prob
lem of convincing Congress
and the Maryland and Virginia
legislatures of the wisdom of
