Schroeder
In Accord
With u. S.

Gerhard Schroeder, West
German Foreign Minister re-
ported complete agreement"
with President Kennedy today
regarding the Berlin situation.
The President conferred with
Mr.. Schroeder for an hour and
a half in his office at the
White House.
The Foreign Minister told re-
porters afterward that he found
agreement with the President
on assessment of the Berlin
problem and the methods to
apply in seeking a settlement.
He said the visit here No
vember Z Of West German
Chancellor Adenaur would
provide another opportunity to
review and discuss planning for
allied moves to meet a possible
new Soviet threat to the allied
position in West Berlin.
FirmnesS Stressed
He emphasized that the main
thing to be done is for the
allies to stand firm" as they
are doing.
Mr.. Schroeder dismissed as
nonsense" some reports that,
if shooting should break out
over Berlin, West German
troops would stand aside and
let allied forces bear the brunt
of the initial fighting.
Asked if he thought a meet
ing between Mr.. Kennedy and
Soviet Premier Khrushchev
; would help the situation, he said
he would not want to express
an opinion about any particular
conference but that certainly
: talking was better than fight
ling.
p More Meetings Planned
e The meeting was the first in q
r series of talks the President
e plans on the Berlin situation.
IS He will receive Soviet Foreign
e Minister Andrea Gromyko to-
u morrow. Then the day after
1.-THE congressional elections Mr..
Adenauer will open consulta-
: tons here with Mr.. Kennedy.
: Later in November there may
be meeting between Mr.. Ken
nedy and Soviet Premier Khru-
shchev, if the Russian leader
decides to come to the United
States.
Meanwhile. Foy D. Kohler,
the new United States Ambas-
sador to Moscow. conferred for
three hours yesterday with Mr..
Khrushchev in the Russian
capital, according to the Asso-
ciated Press. 1t was believed
certain Berlin was hign on the
agenda.
A brief communique issued
after the session said the talk
was held in an atmosphere Of
sincerity and mutual under.
standing.
"They touched on important
international issues and also
questions Of Soviet-American
relations" the communique
said.
No Change Seen
Afterward, diplomatic sources
indicated they could detect no
changes in the Soviet position
on major East-West disputes.
The Russians are still dis
posed to talk over major diff
ferences rather than embark on
a program of immediate action,
observers said.
The omission in this years
slogans for the Bolshevik revo-
luton anniversary of tough
formulas on West Germany and
the Berlin question was noted
in confirmation of this view.
Mr.. Kohler had to wait
nearly four weeks to see Mr..
Khrushchev since arriving in
Moscow on September 20 to
succeed Ambassador Llewellyn
Thompson. Before leaving
Washington, Mr.. Kohler con-
ferred with President Kennedy
and Mr.. Rush on the Berlin
crisis and other subjects.
They did not give Mr.. Kohler
a formal message for Mr..
KhruShchev, but it is known
he planned to pass on their
views. These views have been

i. ). Aid Delay
Shocks Laos

VIENTIANE, Laos, Feb. 20
(AP) 1.-The right-Wing govern
ment of Prince Boun Gum ex-
pressed shock today over a
United States announcement
that another monthly aid allot-
ment is being held up.
Il and all members of the
government are particularly
surprised by the American &C
tion," Information Minister
Bouavan Norasing said, "be-
cause we were not advised until
it was made public"
A State Department spokes-
man announced in Washington
last Saturday that this months
50 million allotment has thus
far been withheld pending fur
ther progress toward formation
of a (neutraD government. Z"
January's allotment was de-
layed until Prince Boun Gum
and his military strongman,
Gen. Phoumi Nosavan, agreed
to a meeting in Geneva with
neutralist Prince Souvanna
Phouma.
Prince Souvanna, who seeks
to form coalition government,
is expected here tomorrow for
a continuation of talks with
Prince Boun Gum.
Mr.. Bouavan said later, how
ever. that coalition govern
ment headed by King Savang
Vathana and composed of six
committees is being considered
by the Boun Gum government.
This formula, he said, would be
proposed if Prince Souvanna
fails to form a neutralist ma
tional union government.
Washington'S announcement
Of a new aid delay, Mr.. Boua-
van said, "had a very demoraliz-
ing effect for all of us who are
struggling against foreign Com
munists."
The United States funds are
used to pay salaries of the
60,000-man Loatian army, gov
eminent officials and police.

position continues to require

The $2.4 billion deficit was
approximately in line with the
consensus of recent official
estimates, but was disappoint-
ingly large by comparison with
hopes expressed early in 1861.

Gains Seen
In Wet Nam
ByMcNan1ara
BY the Associated Press

Secretary of Defense McNa-
mara, returning from his third
conference with Pacific military
commanders. said today he
found the United States military
assistance to South Wet Nam
is becoming more and more
effective"
He told newsmen that his
meeting with Admiral Harry D.
Felt, the Pacific commander,
and United States officials from
South Wet Nam, left him "de-
lighted with the progress" made
since his last conference a little
more than a month ago.
Mr.. Mcnamara said this trip,
like the others, was to discuss
the problems and progress in
the program to help South Wet
Nam meet the very savage at
tack by infiltrators from the
North"
Hartman Impressed
Averell Hartman, Assistant
Secretary of State for Far
Eastern Affairs, who made the
trip with Mr.. Mcnamara, said
he was very much impressed
with the reports of progress in
the assistance program.
Mr.. Hartman noted that the
problem of guerrilla warfare
has been encountered by the
United States in it's assistance
programs in several places, in
Guiding Greece and the Philip
pines.
Referring to Wet Nam, Mr..
Hartman said that 81 want to
underline that it is going to
be a long, slow pull"
Mr.. Mcnamara flew back to
Washington today afer nine
hours behind closed doors in
top-level talks with % military
and diplomatic leaders called
to Hawaii to meet him.
His meeting, the third in the
past two months for which
officials have gathered from
Washington and Wet Nam, was
termed earlier as a "checkup
on our progress in stopping
communism"
Releases Statement
At planeside, however, he
released a written statement
which amounted to a general
summary of the situation of
the South Wet Nam. He said,
in part:
eve have assigned special
forces who have experience and
knowledge of conference.-the
warfare to train Wet Namese
forces in this type of warfare.
g. This type of warfare
is a long and hard struggle be-
cause it is not full-scale war
fare but guerilla warfare. Some
of these wars have lasted for
as long as 10 years in other
parts of the world, but I am
hopeful this will not be the
case in South Wet Nam"

other expenses exceed receipts
for exports, foreign invest
ments here and other sources
of funds.
Continuing large deficits
cause losses of gold from Gov
eminent stocks and can under
mine confidence in the sound
ness of the dollar. President
Kennedy has pledged action to
achieve reasonable equilib-
rum" in the balance of pay
mentS.
Aside from stop-gap meas
ures, the President relies most
ly on increasing exports to
balance the ledger. His pro-
posals for tariff-cutting legis-
lation and his appeals for wage
and price restraint" are key
elements in the export drive.
While these and other meas
ures "go to the heart of the
problem" the Commerce De-
partment said, cit would be en-
tirely unrealistic to expect
major changes in the balance
of payments within a short
time"
See Some '62 Reduction
Officials expect some modest
reduction of the payments def
cit this year, although imports
probably will increase If the
American economy prospers as
the administration predicts.
The 1861 deficit would total
$3.1 billion if special advance
repayments Of West German
Dutch and Italian debts were
not counted. Some economists
discount the significance OF
these advance repayments be-
cause they are one-shot af-
| fairs.
Losses of gold and converti-
BILE currencies held by the Gov
eminent totaled only about
$500 million last year, com.
pared with SIT billion in 1860
according to the report. For.
eigners were more willing tx
hold dollar assets instead OF
converting them into gold, be-
cause speculation against the
dollar practically stopped.
