ing hands and kissing babies in
the best American political
tradition.
But the Vice President, in his
speech later at Berlin's city
parliament, made no specific
commitments and outlined no
practical measures to counter
the sealing off of East Berlin.
His message was largely devot-
ed to a plea to BerlinerS to
keep cool and confident.
The simple truth of the
matter is that nothing the
West could conceivably do is
likely to, change the basic de-
cisionS taken by the Commu-
mist leaders in Pankow and
Moscow. Although the sealing
of sector boundaries is a direct
violation of the four-power
agreements on the city, these
agreements already have been
violated in many ways in the
Communist sector
of the city. And since the latest
move is almost entirely an in
ternal affair involving the
people of East Berlin, direct
interference by the Western
powers is practically impos-
sible.
This fact, however, has not
changed the highly emotional
demand of the people of West
Berlin that something be done.
! Today, headlines announc-
j ing the arrival of Mr.. johnson
: in Germany and the approach
of troop reinforcements have
provided the first real boost
of the grim week. The fact
that the Vice President is ac-
companied by Gen. Lucius
Clay, whose name evokes the
heroic days of the Berlin air.
lift, adds to the effect.
Tomorrow, perhaps, cynics
may be pointing out that there
is a good deal of play acting
to the whole business. The
presence of Mr.. johnson ir
Berlin will not roll up the
barbed wire or make the walls
dividing this city come tum-
bling down. The addition OF
1900 more soldiers to Berlin'S
1l,000-man garrison will not
make Berlin substantially more
secure in the face Of some
half million Communist troops
nearby.
And yet, at this time and
in this place, the most alb
surdly theatrical gestures car
be of the greatest Importance
And the reaction here tonight
suggests that the Vice Presi-
dents trip has succeeded in
expressing a conviction, con-
veying a pledge, sounding a
warning and (perhaps more
doubtfully) the redefining a
policy" on Berlin. Under the
circumstances this is all that
the people of Berlin can rea-
sonably ask of their Western
!allieS.

gument that it must have bor-
rowing authority for long-range
planning because it cannot be
sure how much Congress will
appropriate each year.
| A House Appropriations SUBJ
committee, headed by Repre-
sentative Passman, Democrat
of Louisiana, is holding hear
ingS now on the foreign aid
appropriation bill which must
be passed before adjournment
to cover the approximately So
billion of military aid and eco
nomic grants which are not
provided for in the borrowing
authority.
If the conferees on the au-
thorization bill should keep the
appropriation process for the
first year of development loan
money, and the Passman sub
committee should fail to make
available the full amount of
$1.2 billion the House has au-
thorized for development loans,
it would prove the administra-
tion'S claim that the appro-
priation process is too uncer-
tain.
On the other hand, if the
PaSSman subcommittee brought
out the full amount of S1.2
billion for this year, that action
would weaken the case for fu-
ture borrowing.
But one source close to the
foreign aid fight expressed
doubt yesterday that the House
would accept a five-year pro-
gram with only one year of
appropriations and four years
of borrowing.
The first approach of split
ting each years allotment be-
tween appropriated funds and
Treasury borrowing appeared
to stand more of a chance.
Chance Appears Better
A long, hard road still lies
ahead of Congress before the
foreign aid fight is settled.
Both houses must take further
action tomorrow or Tuesday to
get their conferees appointed
before negotiations can start.
In the House it is possible for
someone to try to have the
confereeS instructed in advance
Evening star., 1961-08-20

not to yield to the Senate, but
this maneuver seems unlikely.
After the conferees have been
in session for several days,
however, they may have to re-
port a deadlock and go back
to their respective branches for
instructions. This is a parlia-
mentary device for finding out
whether one house or the other
has weakened any from its
original position.

accusations that their occupa-
ton rights had been violated.
1t pictured West Berlin as an
espionage den and blamed the
West for East Germany's in
ternal trouble.
The United States, Britain
and France protested in iden-
tical notes Thursday against
the fragrant and particularly
serious violation" of their legal
position in the tension-gripped
city. They demanded a prompt
halt to these illegal measures. "
The Soviet note replying to
the three powers contended
that such claims could be
lodged "only with an extreme
sense of humor."
The note indicated that
the border closing-which it
termed defensive measures"
would end with the conclu-
sion of a German peace treaty.
Unless the Allies agree on a
peace treaty, Premier Khru-
shchev has threatened to sign
q separate treaty with East
Germany.
West Is Blamed
Conceding certain temporary
inconvenienceS for the city's
population" the Russian S
placed the blame on West Ger
many and the United States,
Britain and France.
THE Soviet government has
repeatedly emphasized that the
conclusion of a peace treaty
with Germany and the normal
ization of such a basis of the
situation in West Berlin will
not infringe the interests of
any of the parties and will
contribute to the cause of
peace" the note said.
The Soviet note-aS did the

no threats of nuclear destruc-

America. Mr.. Dillon made no

among the 20 Latin American
republics to sign the charter.
Mr.. Dillon said the program
contemplates a broad measure
of cooperation where each
country does it's part"
The special reception for Sec
retary Dillon was regarded as
the Presidents way Of empha-
sizing friendly cooperation
with Latin America and also as
a bid to Congress to work out a
foreign aid plan along the lines
of the Presidents recommended
tions.
The tenor of the Presidents
extemporaneouS speech was in
harmony with his prepared re-
marks but appeared to give
more emphasis to the appeal to
Congress for greater conSldera-
ton on the long-range aspects
of foreign aid.

Mr.. Kennedy had praised Mr..
Dillon's work at the conference
