Challenge to Reds

The three military occupants
"a captain and two enlisted
men said the challenge to the
Communist checkpoint was in
territorial.
The American position is that
United States military men-aS
well as Government civilians
have the right of passage re-
gardless Of where they wish to
cross. When the Communists
put up their wall through Ber-
lin August 13, the Western
Allied forces submitted to East
German insistence that they
cross only at Friedrichstrasse.
Today's effort to cross the
wall at Heinrich HeineStrasse
was a challenge to the East
German regulation.
There were indications that
both sides were holding their
positions awaiting high level
instructions for the next move
in the war of nerves.
The Soviet tanks arrived in
East Berlin last night. They
were seen driving up Berlin's
famed Inter Den Linden, a
broad avenue leading to the
Brandenburg Gate.
Concealed in Ruins
They then concealed them
selves in the ruins of the palace
of Kaiser Wilhelm the First.
/ Although the appearance of
the Russian tanks in Berlin in
creased the tension, there were
some Western authorities who
saw the arrival of the Soviets
as an encouraging sign in East
West relations.
The Russians in the last few
days have refused to intervene
in the dispute between the
Western powers and the East
German Communists.
The appearance of the Soviet
tanks could, in the view of
some WeSternerS, indicate that
the Russians were not prepared
to let the crisis get too hot.
The Soviet tanks moved in
as the East German regime
accused American troops of
border provocations and warned
in a note to the United States
that their "SallieS" were a dan
ger to peace.

Justice Department Attorney
Paul c. Vincent said that in
his view, 1T was a very fair
verdict, and the Government is
satisfied"
The case that Mr.. Vincent
presented rested largely on con-
feSSions made by Scarbeck to
State Department security Of
ficers and FBI agents.
During an Interrogation in
June, Scarbeck wept as he ad-
mitted he had become involved
with a 23-year-old Polish girl,
Miss Ursula Discher.
Testimony at the trial was
presented by Miss Discher her
self, who appeared as a Govern
ment witness. She described
how, on December %, she and
Scarbeck had been caught in

Other testimony revealed
that Scarbeck. twice married
father Of four children, was
blackmailed by the Polish Com
munist agents into giving them
information in order to save
his mistress from prison in
Poland and to shield his fam
lily from disgrace.
Didn't Testify
Scarbeck did not take the
stand to testify. The defense
presented only three witnesses
One OF them was Miss
Discher, but she merely re-
sponded with negative answer
to the one question asked OF
her: Had she ever worked for

were psychiatrists. Both OF

In New York
Guinean

NEW YORK, Aug. 90 (AP)
A storm spawned by a minor
auto accident in Harlem last
Saturday is showing signs OF
developing into a fullblown in
ternational incident threaten
ing United States Guinea rela-
tionS.
The African nation brought
up the question of continued
good relations yesterday after
Police Commissioner Michael j
Murphy cleared a patrolman of
blame in a fight with Michel
Collet, Guinea's deputy perma-
nent representative to the
United Nations.
Mr.. Collet claimed he was
beaten by Patrolman James
O'Grady after the accident.
The patrolman said it was the
other way around.
Shortly after Mr.. Murphy's
announcement, Guinea called a
news conference at United Ma
tions headquarters and accused
the New York City Police De-
partment of racial discrimina-
ton and brutality.
The Guineans charged that
police violence had given the
case the aspects Of a "lynching
party" they said was typical of
threats, insults and manhan-
ding allegedly encountered by
African diplomats in this
country.
Situation Called Grave
Guinea's chief delegate, Tell
Diallo, demanded satisfaction
from the United States saying
the extreme gravity" of the
situation had cast a shadow
over continued friendly rela-
tions with Washington. He also
asked the U. N. to take a strong
stand on what he said was har-
aSSment Of delegates.
Police said Mr.. Collet attacked
Policeman O'Grady after the
diplomats car bumped into the
rear of a taxi. They also said
Evening star., 1961-08-29

that the first time it was known
he was a diplomat was when he
identified himself at a police
station.
Mr.. Diallo said Mr.. Collet in
formed police Immediately after
the accident that he was an
African diplomat. Mr.. Diallo al
so contended the taxi struck
Mr.. Collects car, not vice versa.
Has Diplomatic Immunity
Mr.. collet has diplomatic
immunity and is not subject
to criminal prosecution here
without his country's permis-
sion.
Mr.. Diallo added another
charge to Mr.. Collects earlier
ones-that Patrolman O'Grady
and a detective "brutally" pum-
meled the 38-year-old dipomat
in a car as they took him to the
police station. Mr.. Murphy
withheld comment on this al
legation.
Copies of the police report
on the case were sent to Mavor
Robert F., Wagner and Adlai
E. Stevenson, United States
Ambassador to the U. N. Both
had expressed regret to Mr..
Collet earlier, but they de-
clined comment on the report
until they could study it.
Reports Threats
Mr.. Diallo said the Harlem
fight was part of a series of
constant and painful" threats
to the security and tranquility
of Negro diplomats in this
country.
Insults, phone calls and
threats are almost our daily lot
for the past two years in New
York and Washington" he said.
Other possible aspects of the
situation were reported by the
New York Times, which said in
its story:
Certain quarters at the
United Nations saw more
propaganda than logic in the
Guinean attitude and a posi-
BILE effort to embarrass the
United States.
"They pointed to Guinea'S
close association with the Com
munist bloc of nations.

to short-temper when he is not
understood"

as hostages, will be prosecuted
to the full extent of the law"
Mr.. Kennedy said in a state
