Were Speakers at Rally They were speakers at the rally of 250.000 Berliners Sept- 9 at which anti-Communist civilians stoned Russian troops and Soviet-controlled German police and were fired upon. Persons seized in the riot were sentenced by a Soviet military court but the court said these had been incited by speeches of anti-Communist leaders.

How the Russians intend to punish the accused city officials is not well-informed British and French sources said. They said these projects already have been discussed with the U- S. State and Defense Departments in Washington by the five ambassadors of the western countries.

Besides a European parliament and the North Atlantic pact, these other subjects probably will be discussed: 1.

The current situation in Germany and possibilities for a German settlement, the Berlin blockade, construction of a West German state, and a reparations policy. 2. A report from the western European union's defense ministers who recently agreed to establish a unified general staff, to standardize these forces, according to a Communist spokesman, is to put down any anti-Communist revolt in Eastern Germany. The British-licensed German Press Service quoted the Communist chief of railroad police at Dresden as declaring: "We must reckon with the possibility that peace in the Eastern sone must be defended with weapons in our hands. He made the statement as he ordered the dismissal of 220 railroad police who belonged to non-Communist parties.
