Porter Lockard's
 Suspension Filed in Pilots Flight Record

NOME tR The Federal Avia- ton Agency has ordered a 90- day retroactive suspension of tie pilot certificate of Porter Lock ard, Wien Airlines, Fairbanks.
 The suspension was made ef- fective as of last Dec 19, the day following takeoff accident in which Lockard and some of his 10 passengers were injured. Al though the suspension period ended last March, it now becomes a part of the pilots flight record.
 The FAA said Lockard took off from Nome for a flight to Northeast Cape and other Alaska points in a Beechcraft plane with an excessive load, and with an improper adjustment of center of gravity, although the required pre- -takeoff check list specifics a check cf the aircraft weights and balances.
 The agency said Lockard failed to brief his passengers on the use and location of survival equip ment for an overwater flight.
 Furthermore, it said, during takeoff Lockard permitted an un- authorized person on the flight deck, and allowed that person to. sit in the right-hand pilet's seat within reach of partially func- tioning dual control instruments.

West Takes Slow,
 Cautious Approach To Berlin Problem

LONDON lR The present mood of the Western powers is to take slow, cautious approach to the Berlin problem in the hope the crisis won't get worse, diplo- matic sources reported today.
 Were not ready to climb on to that escalator yet" one West ern official in Berlin was quoted as saying in explanation of the re- luctance to adopt any major re- prisals for the Communist block ade in the middle of Berlin.
 By climbing on the escalator he meant a series of reprisals and counter-reprisals that could lead to either the East or the West backing down or war.
 The West replied to the Com munist ban against refugees and commuters if1 Berlin by cutting off trade with East Germany; East Germany, with Soviet backing, cut West Berlin's lifelines to West Germany; the West is left with the choice of trying an airlift again or shooting it's way through on the ground.
 A British Foreign office spokes- man in London firmly denied suggestions printed in some Wes German and French newspaper that the British are weakeninl
 in the resolve to resist Com munist pressure.

20 American Nations Delegates Brush Aside Cuban Proposals

PUNTA DEL ESTE, Uruguay R
 Cuban economic czar Ernesto Guevara tried to open the door today to Communist advisers for President Kennedy's S20-billion alliance progress but ran into stone wall.
 Delegates from the other 20 American nations at the Inter- American Economic Conference brushed aside Guevara's proposals and the committee unanimously approved a 1,000-word "declara- tion to the peoples of America" summing up the new program of economic aid and self-help for Latin America.
 The declaration is an abridge- ment of the 3,O00-word charter of Punta Del Este which sets forth the principles of the program in detail. The shorter declaration was drawn up with the idea that it could be more easily under stood by Latin Americas masses.
 There was speculation whether Guevara would sign for Cuba. But other Latin American deie- gates said even if ke did, the U. S.-contrelled agencies that will handle the bulk of the financing won't advance any funds to Cuba

Sonber Skies Over Berlin

dynn Heinzerling first
 went to Berlin in 1889 to re-
 port the first stages of World
 War II. He has spent the last
 20 years in various parts of the
 world, and this year won the
 Pulitzer Prize for his reporting
 from Africa. Now he is back in
 Berlin--a far different Berlin.
 This is his story of the way the
 split city looks today.
 By Lynn Heinzerling
 BERLIN R The police and troops of Communist East Berlin went about their somber task of mutilating this great city today.
 Dark, forbidding clouds lay over sthe city. Communist tanks and armored cars lurked behind an arbitrary dividing line.
 The peoples army, the peoples police, the factory militia and the railway police barred some 80,000 East BcrIiner odll sf1eir jobs across the line.
 On Freidrichstrasse one of the city's great business arteries, the Communists have put down what looks like permanent barrier. Great slabssof concrete are laid across the street in five knee high barriers. Motorists must zigzag through the small opening as an obstacle race to cross the line. Nobody in hurry would make it. | There is an air of unrea1ity about this business of trying to | quarantine a major portion of a huge, modern city. It is difficult to believe it is happening. But
 there is the barhed wire in front of the stately Brandenburg Gate l to prove it.
 Foreigners and West Germans could still enter East Berlin .c- day The secret policeman on Freidrichstrasse took one look at US. passports and politely waved reporters into the Communist sec tion of the city.
 Some of the peoples police are less polite. Where do you think you're going?" one inquired an- grily with the familiar worldwide expression.
 The linden trees still grace Inter den Linden, the old inn periai and Nazi show street. But, behind them are ruins or mostly gray, laekluster buildings with the outstanding exception the immense Soviet Embassy.
 The State Opera, where Hitler shouted, still stands. A small group of Communist militia was sheltered under the portico today.
 Great banners meet the eye in East Berlin: Not powder keg, but demiiitarized free city of Berlin. One of them waved in the wind near Alexanderplatz, not far from wicked looking lineup of tanks.

THE WEST JET
TOUCH for weddings was the
honeymoon departure of Gil
bert Melville Grosevenor and
his bride, Donna Kerkam,
on Friday. 1t behooved the
son Of the president of the
National Geographic, grand
son of DR.. Gilbert Grosvenor,
who built the magazine, and
great-grandSon of Alexander
Graham Bell, who invented
the telephone, to whisk his
Mrs. away in some uncom-
monplace way. But it was his
brother Alec who dreamed
up the method.
Alec, who's a jet pilot, told
the family absolutely moth
ing about his plans, but ad-
monished one and all attend
ing the wedding reception at
the Columbia Country Club
to be outside the door at
1880. At that point he came
by in a jeep, scooped up the
newlyweds and drove them
to the nearest fairway on the
golf course, where a hell
copter awaited. The couple
boarded the copter and it at
once took off for Friendship
Airport, where they emplaned
for Paris in no time at all.
If you want to make an exit
with a flair, this is the way
to do it.
This marriage eliminated
several condolences linking
the two Washington families.
Gil, who had never met
Donna until she went to work
for the National Geographic
(they became engaged eight
months later, was astounded
when he discovered that
her grandfather, William B.
Kerkam of this city, was his
great grandfather Bells
patent attorney and owned
several letters and auto
graphed books from him.
Donna. whose Geographic job
was to dictate $50 letters a
day answering inquiries, had
not mentioned her family
connection to get the job.
She got it through an en-
ployment agency.
