abdh Red Boss in Berlin Threatens Allied Air Control Center By GASTON COBLENTZ Special to The Inquirer BERLIN, Sept. 4. The Rus-ian commandant in East Berlin Monday threatened to disrupt the Berlin air traffic safety center in retaliation for alleged molestation of Soviet personnel by West Berliners. The critically Important center controls Western flights in and out of Berlin through the air cor ridors across East Grmaqy. It is a four-Power organization run by the United States, the Soviet Union, Britain and France.

The drastic counteraction threatened by the Russians was distinctly out of proportion, observers noted, to the alleged minor offenses again6t Soviet personnel. Taken together wtih two Soviet notes concerning the air corri dors In the last 10 days, Monday's Russian move inevitably suggested that the Soviet Union may be readying a pretext for interference with the air routes. Col. A. V.

Solovyev, the Soviet commandant, was reported by the East German news agency ADN to have voiced the threat to the U. S. Berlin commandant, Maj. Gen. Albert Watson, 2d, at a meeting between the two officers Monday.

However, the U. S. military mission here said Monday night that no such encounter has yet taken place. Instead, the two men are scheduled to meet Tuesday at the Russian commandant's request, according to American spokesmen. The East German news agency's apparently premature release of Solovyev's warning did not, however, alter the fact that the threat has been made' public in the form in which it is evidently to be officially conveyed to the United States Tuesday.

The core of the complaint revolves around an accusation by the Russian commandant that West Berlin "rowdies" on, two occasions "hindered" Soviet military personnel on their way to the air center, which is located in the American sector. He charged "American officials" with being accomplices in the alleged molestation. Solovyev's statement, as published by also referred to another incident involving the harassment of a Russian military truck on its way to the Soviet war memorial on the Western side of the Brandenburg Gate.
