British Report Russia
Stonds Firm on Berlin

UNITED NATIONS. N. Y.
Sept. % (AP)-The British
reported persistent deadlock
today after the last East West
talk over Berlin.
The report came as Presi-
dent Kennedy arranged to
review world affairs with
United States Secretary of
State Dean Rusk and British
Foreign Secretary Lord Home
at lunch tomorrow in Wash
ington.
A British spokesman said
Lord Home discussed the Berlin
question with Soviet Foreign
Minister Andrei Gromyko late
yesterday at the Soviet United
Nation Mission.
Lengthy Farley
"They talked for about 80
minutes" he told a reporter.
"They discussed Laos briefly
and then the rest of the time
they spent talking about Berlin.
They went over the ground
again but we can't say that
they really made any progress"
But, in reply to a query. the
spokesman said Mr.. Gromyko
did not mention any deadline
for the West to meet Soviet
demands-which are the sign
ing of a German peace treaty
or treaties and the withdrawal
of British, French and United
States garrisons from West
Berlin.
Latest indications are that
the Soviet Union is willing to
wait at least till after the
United States congressional
election November ~-6 before
pressing these demands.
On September II, a Soviet
government statement noted
the argument that, ''It is diff
cult to negotiate on the Ger
man peace treaty now as elec-
tons to the American Congress
are due in November" 1t said,
%The Soviet government is pre-
pared to reckon with this"
