U.S. Secretary 6'f State" Deap Rusk and various aides conferred in the second room. Stretching out ahead for consideration was a wide sweep of international issues of various magnitudes.

But the two principals went into their sessions apparently with no massive differences or quarrels and an expectation among some of their that no major decisions or shift in policy lines were to be announced at the end of their talks late Sunday. North Atlantic Treaty Organization, defense, trade, the future of Berlin, methods of dealing with these and other items were on a flexible, informal agenda. Erhard is the architect of Germany's prospering economy and Johnson was prepared, to bring up assorted economic and trade problenisi The administration is disenchanted with some tariff policies of the European Common Market which the United States contends discriminate against American for example. Germany is a power in the Common Market. The question of trade with Communist including Cuba, will be coining up.

Johnson said Fiu'day that East -West relations are the inosl important topic for the talks now under way. Germany has had some misgivings about 'any extensive negotiations with Moscow for an East-West non- aggression pact, The meeting with Erhard brought Johnson for the first time into a full-scale discussion of international issues, with anojhffr head of government. Waiting for the visiting Germans when they landed were some gifts Texas sombreros. The rangy President and the stubby, silver haired chancellor spoke in turntfrom a small stand after Erhard had received a red- carpet welcome and full military honors at Bergstrom AFB in Austin. Afterward, the President took over the microphones again to thank fellow Texans for their hospitality.

Austin's mayor had proclaimed "Ludwig Erhard Day" for the city. "We wjjl now go back to the hills," Johnson said, "to proceed with our discussions. We! thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your warmth, we ask for your prayers in the days ahead." On matters expected to be set- tlod was which issues Johnson and Erhard see eye-to-eye on and which questions will require more American- German consultations.
