for the old Fisheries Bureau.
The major fisheries building
is ready for razing in January.
Its annex is occupied by the
Park Police, who will not move
out until spring when new
quarters are finished on Hams
Point.
Razing to Start Soon
Officials said the razing con-
tract was advertised December
Is. The General Services Ad-
ministration wants to award
the contract in the first or
second week in January.
In addition to the Fisheries
Building, Tempo Four, which is
along Seventeenth street, and
Tempo L. near the Lincoln
Memorial, are empty enough to
permit the start of razing in
January, officials said.
Tempos Five, and Three,
along Constitution avenue and
near the Monument, are par
tally vacant. The Federal Avia-
ton Agency has moved part of
its offices into new quarters. 1t
will have to leave its printing
plant there until May, when
new quarters will be ready in
the Navy Yard.
Near Lincoln Memorial
The four long tempos on the
south side of the rejecting pool
ARE named I. J, K, and L. The
building nearest the Lincoln
Memorial, L, has to be RACED
soon to permit work for tenn
porary ramps for construction
of a tunnel for an Interstate
highway beneath the memorial.
Tempos I. j and K, and Three
and Five all should be ready
for destruction by May or June
General Services spokesman
explained that the razing will
be done in stages, although one
contract will be let for all eight
buildings.
Removal of the tempos from
The Mall has been a civic goal
in Washington since World Wal
I when the first tempos were
built.
The seven tempos between the
Lincoln Memorial and Wash
ington Monument were built in

In the interview, Mr.. Abusch
also said his government was
ready to talk about other
questions of normalizing the
relations with West Berlin, "
perhaps reopening telephone
lines between the two parts of
the city cut by the Reds In
1852.
OF course, Mr.. Abusch said,
these talks must be held ain
the spirit Of a policy of good
will"
Western officials interpreted
this to mean the Communists
may want to extract further
political concessions from the
West.
So far the East Germans
have Unanswered the West
Berlin government into direct
talks with them, hailed in the
East as virtual recognition of
the Red regime despite West
ern denials.
The Christmas concession
took on the appearance of a
carefully calculated maneuver
toward the long-proclaimed
Communist aim of turning
West Berlin into a free city"
deprived of the protection OF
Western Allied garrisons.
In an unprecedented move
which could be interpreted by
the Communists as further
acceptance of their regime, the
West Berlin government last
night protested directly to the
East Germans about the killing
of a refugee on the wall.
Until then, such protests
were made by the Western
Allies. to the Soviet Union as
the ultimate authority in the
Communist sector.
Since establishment of the
East German regime in 1949,
the Russians always have
rejected Allied protests, main-
tanning they should be directed
to the sovereign" government
of East Germany.
An American protest to the
Soviet ambassador in East
Berlin yesterday about the
Christmas Day shooting OF
Paul Schultz, 10, was promptly
rejected as expected. Young
Schultz was slain trying to
escape over the wall.
Allied officials voiced unhap-
pineSS about the West Berlin
protest, especially since it was
made without consultation OF
the United States, British and
French commandments.
Western diplomats indicated
that there was no objection to
further talks but that all West
Berlin moves must be fully
approved by Allies to prevent
making further concessions to
the Reds.

Costs Being Incurred as Re-
suit Of the Navy's Refusal to
Accept the Standardized Off
GERS Dress Shoes Agreed Upon
by the Army, Air Force and
Marine Corps"
Whether it was this threat
of congressional intervention,
inquiries by the press or simple
coincidence, on Friday a Navy
spokesman said it had been de-
cided to stop issuing the con-
troversial brown shoes.
Trying to put the best face
possible on the defeat, the
Navy pointed out that the only
ones affected by the decision
would be trainees in certain Of
ficer candidate programs, most
ly aviation cadets. 1t also dis
puted the GAO cost figures,
stating that the saving would
be only $4,000 a year instead
Of $158,000.
Navy Finds LOOphOIe
Furthermore, it was clear
the Navy wasn't in full, ignom-
inous retreat by any means.
Officers and chief petty Off
GERS will continue to buy their
own brown shoes to go with
their khaki uniforms, just as
they have since 1943. Only the
free-issue-a mere 10000 pairs
a year-will be affected.
Presumably, this will satisfy
the Comptroller General, whose
28-page report to Congress in
dicated that he was only con-
cerned with shoes for which
the taxpayer foots the bill.
(The report. incidentally, cost
$500 to prepare, according to
GAO.)
AT least the GAO will be
spared the need for answering
such complaints as the one
that Standardization to a
single color for shoes
would impose a morale impair
ment since the color of shoes
is considered essential to the
uniforms worn by the serv-
ices"
Argument Loses
The best the GAO could do
with that one was to note,
rather plaintively, that certain
accessories in the Nays sum-
mer khaki uniform are black
or blue, and these accessories,
which include neckties, cap
visors. shoulder boards, rating
badges and chevronS, seem to
be more compatible with black
shoes than with brown shoes"
This line of argument was
lost on the Navy, which has
never made any pretense of be-
ing compatible with the other
services.
Nor was it any more profit
able to bring up the occasion
when the Army agreed to adopt
the tropical wool trousers used
by the Marines. or the time the
Marines agreed to standardize
on an aluminium canteen. Let
the weak sister services knuckle
under those GAO landlubbers.
The Navy didn't care.
While the Navy declined to
say what had caused its deci-
sion on brown shoes, it seemed
clear that it was worth the

Mai. Gen. Peter G. F.
Young, the commander, is
drawing on his experience as a
31-year army veteran to pre-
vent the animosity between
Greek and Turkish Cypriots

One of his first peace-keep-

treaty by battalionsized contin-
gents of troops from Greece

The tension which led to the
first shooting a week ago is
attributed primarily to concern
of the Turkish Cypriots over a

A wealthy businessman from

Gov. Scranton served as an

Christian A. Herter for a year
before launching his political
career in 1860.
He won a House seat in a

His victory. by a 47s,0OO-vote
margin, broke an eight-year
Democratic grip on the State

May Vote on
Gas Storage
Delegation Backs
Underground Field
At Brundywine
BY WILLIAM DUKE
Star Staff Writer

ANNAPOLIS. Mar. a.
Prince Georges legislators have
decided to let county voters
pass on the hotly debated ques-
ton Of storing natural gas un-
derground at Brandywine.
The delegation. with one dis
sent, agreed last night to sup
port legislation permitting the
Washington Gas Light Co. to
develop an underground stOr-
age field, provided the proposal
Is approved In a referendum
next November.
The action assures House
passage Of the storage bill, but
leaves the fate of the measure
uncertain in the Senate, where
Prince Georges State Senator
H. Winship Wheatley has not
yet made known his position
on the current measure. In the
past. he has opposed under
ground gas storage bills.
Delegation chairman Edward
T. Conroy said the bill will be
given a favorable report by the
delegation at today's session
and viii probably be printed
for final House passage next
Monday or Tuesday.
The measure would permit
the gas company to acquire UNI
derground storage rights on
some 1000 acres in the Bran
DIVINE area in Southern Prince
Georges. The company would
have the right to condemn the
land.
The referendum amendment
tackled on by the delegation
last night stipulates that the
bill be approved by the voters
Of the entire county in a spe-
cial election next November 5.
Another new amendment APP
proved by the delegation would
increase substantially the
amount Of revenue the county
would receive from the gas
company for the facility. 1t
would allow the county to i'm
pose a is per cent tax on the
