Three East Germans escaped

To Famed Berlin Wall

shchev and his party turned
arouad and walked away.
Also at the barrier was a
busload of Italian and British
tourists who had been sight
seeing in East Berlin. Mr..
Khrushchev walked up to the
bus and greeted the visitors.
The party disappeared be-
hind the maze of concrete OBJ
stacles placed across the road
to keep vehicles from breaking
through the Communist bar
riers. Adm said Mr.. Khru-
shchev went off to visit a unit
of the 10000 East Germans on
guard along the wall.
In an interview earlier this
month, West Berlin's Mayor
had suggested that Mr.. Khru-
shchev get a first-hand look
Of the real conditions in both
parts of divided Berlin. But
Mr.. Brandt extended no invita-
ton to the Soviet Premier 10
visit West Berlin.
Mr.. KhIushchev's visit to the
wall seemed to constitute a gain
for Mr.. Ulbricht. II under
lined once again that the So
Wet leader understood Mr.. Ul-
bricht's reasons for putting uI
the wall and approved them.
Mr.. Khrushchev in his owr
speech TO the Congress yester.
day described the building OF
the wall-a barrier which keeps
II million East Germans locked
inside the Communist camp
as an historic act.
He suggested the wall has
taken much Of the tension Out
Of the Berlin problem by al
lowing the East German gov
ernment 10 get on with the task
Of building communism.

Mr.. Khrushchev will make a
tour Of East Germany before

The Italian stand on these
two questions contrasts sharply
with the position taken by Gen.
de Gaulle in a press conference
Monday.
Interest in Nuclear Force
Discussing possible develop

force within NATO, the Ken
nedy-Fanfani commuique said
THE Prime Minister ex-
pressed great interest in the
possibility of such a force and
agreed that the United States

most serious consideration by
all members of the alliance. f"

lations in various industries
Senator Morse served on the
War Labor Board during World
War II.
Mr.. Kennedy asked Senator
Morse to report back to him
no later than next Monday.
The President said the strike,
which has tied up more than
| $50 ships and idled nearly l00,-
900 waterfront and seagoing
workers, is inflicting economic
losses on the Nation "at the
rate of millions of dollars a
day"
Total losses to date are esti-
mated at one-half billion dol
lars.
Mr.. Kennedy said in a state
ment:
THE point of public tolera-
ton of this situation has been
passed, If this case cannot be
settled by private action, then
further public action is re-
quired."
Vital foreign aid and relief
shipments are blocked" he
added, and commerce 'impera-
tive to the economic we'll being
of the free world is disrupted. I"
Hopes for Accord
If the mediation board can
help both sides in the dispute
to reach an agreement CON
sistent with their mutual in
terests and the public interest,
this will constitute the most
satisfactory disposition of this
case" Mr.. Kennedy continued.
IF such agreement is not
reached" he said, Il am asking
the board to recommend a pro-
cedure which will assure an
immediate resumption of opera
tions and a settlement Of
this dispute on a basis and by
a procedure limited to the cir
cumstances of this particular
situation"
This part of the statement
was interpreted in Washington
as meaning that President Ken
nedy hopes to avoid opening up
the broad field of labor legis-
lation if he is forced to go to
Congress with a request for
special action to end the strike.
Wages are. one of the prin-
cipal issues in the contract dis

boss who likes to have these as
tenants as often as possible.
Both Of them were more than
somewhat startled awhile back,
after having a stage installed
at the Coliseum to accommodate
the STARS Of the BolShoi," tC
find themselves publicly chided
because the arrangement wasn't
perfect. They knew that.
They knew the Capitol Theat-
er was no more. They also
knew that the cultural center
was not likely to be erected
the day after tomorrow, or
even next week. They thought,
too, that it would not be conSi-
dered criminal of them if they
tried to arrange some interim
facility so large dance COM
panies would not have to bypass
Washington, as some of them
have.
Fortunately Mr.. Hayes and
Mr.. Lynn still feel the same
way. While wincing at the I'M
called for carping, they took
note Of some criticism that
they felt was fully justified.
What's more, they have taken
action.
The staging facilities at the
Coliseum will have been ma
terially improved by the time
the Ballet Folklorico of Mexico
arrives for its Sunday after
noon performance on Deem
Der Is.
For one thing, there will be
structural and insulation i'm
provementS in the stage aimed
at eliminating the kettle drum
effect some of the Russians
achieved at the end of prodi-
gious leaps. A new floor of "a
inch plywOod will be installed
on the stage supports and d.
rectly beneath it a 4-inch
layer of homoSote. This, a fl
brous, wall-board type of sound
insulation, also will line the
IEOnt and sides of the inner .
stage box, to trap all thumps
and rumbles.
Above this will be a new
grid syStem-weighing about a
on, so feet wide by 26 feet
ieep-suspended from the roof
~ six electrically-d iv en-
vincheS. This can be raised to
he roof when not in use and
owered to five feet above the
'tage for quick h angling of
lights and scenery. During per-
iormances it will be suspended .
about Is feet above the stage. |
A permanent installation, it |
will give the Coliseum a show
hanging potential comparable
to that Of a theater.
The new grid also will make
It possible to light shows more
effectively. By moving one row
Of lights some six feet forward,
It allows for lighting nine more
