Rusk in Paris to Prepare
For Talks With Russians

PARIS, Aug. 4 (AP).-Sec-
retary Of State Dean Rusk ar
rived in Paris by air today to
lay the groundwork for nego-
tiations with the Soviet Union
on West Berlin and Germany.
The American Secretary will
meet with his British and
French counterparts. He told
newSmen at the airport that
the Western Big Three are in
Berlin by their rights won in
World War II.
He pointed out that Western
occupation arrangements in
Berlin also governed the allied
withdrawal from East Ger
many after the war.
I'VE are in Berlin under the
same arrangements which gov
erned the withdrawal of allied
forces from parts of East Ger
many following World War H."
he said.
"If the Soviet Union is dis
turbed over West Germany it
should not forget that West
Germany began arming only
after East Germany did so.
NATO was born in direct re-
sponse to preSsureS against
Western Europe"
VIII See Ambassadors
The meetings of the Western
foreign ministers will continue
through Monday. On Tuesday
the ministers will meet with
the full permanent council of
the North Atlantic Treaty Or
ganization.
On Wednesday Mr.. Rusk wiz
confer with United States Am
baSsadorS who have been sum-
moned to Paris from both sides
of the Iron Curtain.
The spirit of negotiation was
in the air-both in the Western
capitals and in MoScow-with
each side apparently waiting
for the other to make the first
direct diplomatic move to set
up talks.
Mr.. Rusk and the foreign
ministers of Britain, France
and West Germany begin three
days of secret conferences to-
morrow to put together a united
allied front against the Soviet
challenge.
The United States Secretary
was moving cautiously. Leav-
ing Washington last night, he
warned the Russians and West
ern allies alike against any
'reckleSSneSS in words or in
deeds" that could fan the con-
flict over Berlin into shooting
war.

replied.
At the urging of newsmen,

ask President Kennedy person.

had been taken up within the
administration within the last

Cuba EMBARGO
Given Study
By the Associated Press

The White House acknowl-
edged today that the Kennedy
administration has given some
consideration to imposing an
embargo on United States trade
with Cuba.
Andrew T. Hatcher, assistant
White House press secretary,
said he presumed application to
Cuba of the Trading-with-the-
Enemy Act had been weighed as
part of overall strategy in
dealing with the Communist
inclined island nation.
Mr.. Hatcher told newSmen,
however, that there has been no
recent discussion of imposing a
total embargo.
Effects Of Application
The Trading-wit the Enemy
Act originated in World War I.
If it were invoked against Cuba,
the United States would stop
trading with Cuba and freeze
assets of its government in this
country.
The Eisenhower administra-
ton restricted United States ex-
ports to Cuba last fall to med
ical supplies and food. Imports
also have been reduced sharply.
Diplomatic relations were bro
ken in early January.
Question for President
Mr.. Hatcher was questioned
about published reports that
Mr.. Kennedy has been giving
serious thought to making use
of the Trading -with-the Enemy
Act.

Congress has passed a COM
promise farm bill that bears
little resemblance to the ad-
ministration'S "draft-it-your-
self" proposal originally sub
mitted by Secretary of Agri-
culture Freeman.
President Kennedy is ex-
pected to sign the bill despite
the changes.
AS finally passed by House
and Senate yesterday, the leg
islation is aimed primarily at
trimming the huge surpluses of
wheat, corn and other grains
that have built up under other
farm programs.
The key feature in the orig
inal administration farm bill
called for a new approach to
the drafting of price support
and crop control programs.
The administration proposed
to have farmers advisory COM
mittees, working with the Agri-
culture Department, draw up
these programs on a crop-by-
crop basis. Congress would
have been authorized to accept
or veto such programs, but not
to change them. To take ef-
feet, the programs also would
have required approval by two
thirds of the producers in a
referendum.
This proposal reused a con-
troversy and both the House
and Senate Agricultural Com
mittees chopped the feature
from the bill before sending it
out for a floor vote.
AS sent to the White House.
the measure tries to curtail
wheat production by offering
slightly higher price supports
to farmers who keep idle 10 per
cent or more of their wheat
lands.

a Mr.. Rusk emphasized that
the Western allies will act firm
ly-but sensibly-and are still
ready to negotiate.
Khrushchev Willing
Soviet Premier Khrushchev
has talked increasingly of his
willingness to negotiate on West
Berlin and Germany. But at
the same time he has repeat
edly declared he intends to go
ahead and sign a separate peace
treaty with the Communist
East German regime by the end
of the year unless the allies
join in a peace treaty with both
Germanys.

ceived what he said was his
first military salute since his

The salute was given at the

broke into a few bars of "At-
tention," followed by "Ruffles

somewhat beyond Labor Day
as an adjournment goal
because Of the impending
battles over foreign aid, the
education bills and a drive to
adopt a new anti-filibuster
rule in the Senate.
The big advantage in using
Treasury borrowing instead of
annual appropriations for the
Development Loan Fund is that
it would avoid two battles in
Congress every year, since the
appropriation bill must be
handled separately after the
annual foreign aid authoriza-
ton bill passes.
There still would be an an
nual authorization bill under the
Kennedy program for portions
of the foreign aid program not
covered by development loans.
But the Development Loan
Fund always has faced more
opposition in the appropria-
tion committees, from which
it would be saved if a long
range borrowing program is
authorized now.

authorize.
The measure reported today
would set aside $375 million
over the next three years fol
40-year, low-interest loans to
non-profit private and paro-
chial schools. The money could
be used to construct classrooms
and purchase facilities fol

Among other things, the
money could go into construc-
ton Of gymnasiums, cafeterias
and "identifiable portions OF
buildings" for use in teaching
the prescribed subjects. It could
not be used for general or re-
ligious educational purposes.
The Democratic majority OF
the Education and Labor Com
mittee said in today's report
that the construction loans
will result in the same type
Of stimulation and strengthen
ing in these disciplines for the
Z million elementary and Sec
