The Home Ap- torjum at 9 0.clock the fjrst day Vishinsky Does Not Walk Out, Listens Silently (By Louis Nevin) PARIS, Oct.

big three western powers accused Russia today of endangering peace in the Berlin crisis and were reported drafting a resolution to- night for the Security Council demanding the Soviets end the blockade. Deputy Foreign Minister Andrei Y. Vishinsky and up to ten Russian aides silently listened to United States, British and French speakers indict the Soviet Union in the Security Council. Vishinsky did not walk out, although yesterday he announced a Russian boycott of the proceedings. He seemed intent at one time, writing notes.

At other times he was grim or acted bored, reading a newspaper. He uttered not an official word. After the security council adjourned to an indefinite date possibly leading western delegates began working on their resolution, a British official said. The British official said the note might be a joint one, but that the western powers have not yet de! cided on terms of the proposal, They were represented as having delayed phrasing the terms be' cause they wanted to see what Vishinsky would do. The American, British and French delegates saw several of the other six security council delegations which voted in favor or considering the Berlin dispute.

A U. N. official said the reason for this was to arrange for countries other than the big three western powers to carry on from where they had left off in talks tociay. No other delegate so far has elected to speak. A good deal of the effect of.

referring Berlin to the Security Council would be lost if the debate dwindled off now that the western powers have made their complaint, it was said. Speculation persisted that shinsky attended meeting to veto whatever resolution the Security Council might have to decide upon.
