2 The News-Review, Roseburg, Ofe: Aug. 7, 1961 Western Big Four Say Next Berlin Move Up To Russians PARIS -The Western Big Four foreign ministers made clear today they are willing to negotiate a settlement of the Berlin problem but left the next move to the Soviet Union. After a two-day review of the crisis resulting from Soviet Premier Khrushchev's new drive, to end the allied occupation West Berlin, Secretary of State Dean Rusk and the foreign ministers of Britain, France and West Germany said they would talk with the Soviets "only on a reasonable basis" but that the Soviets have done nothing so far to provide for such an approach. Mutual Respect Asked The talks must be conducted on a "plane of mutual respect," a French spokesman said. A British spokesman said Moscow's last notes to the four allies, threatening a separate peace with the East Germans and demanding a new status for West Berlin, amounted to "abuse which does not provide reasonable basis for negotiation."

Humphrey Says Administration Has Votes To Best Opposition The Western powers decided to await further developments before taking any initiative toward an East-West conference. One of these developments will be Premier Khrushchev's speech tonight. Khrushchev, reportedly angered by President Kennedy's speech on the Soviet challenge to Berlin, is expected to reply when he goes on a nationwide radio and TV network.

The Soviet leader reportedly told visiting Italian Premier Amintore Fanfani he considered Kennedy's speech excessively belligerent. Reds To Sign Pact Leaders of the Communist Warsaw Pact nations disclosed Saturday night they had decided in a secret three-day Kremlin meeting to sign a separate peace treaty with East Germany by the end of this year. The eight group asserted delaying a German treaty indefinitely would "contribute to an intensification of the threat of a new war in, Europe and not only in Europe." Khrushchev stated in notes to the Western powers last week that he is ready to negotiate a settlement on the future of Germany and Berlin. But he apparently left it to the West to take the initiative. The ministers issued no communique after their review of the Berlin situation, but their spokesmen gave this sumup: 1.

The conference agreed the Communist threat to West Berlin is a threat to free men evervwhere. The Western powers are determined to prevent East Germany from taking over West Berlin. West Behind Kennedy 2. Any reasonable basis for negotiating the problem will be welcomed, but the West stands behind President Kennedy's denunciation of the. Soviet conception of negotiation as meaning "what's mine is mine and what's yours is negotiable." 3.

No decision was made to propose an East-West conference of foreign ministers or heads of vernment.

The NASA plans to attempt within a launch unorbit, and bring to manned Mercury, spacecraft, into earth again. Officials said the Mercury program-which has sent astronauts Alan, Shepard, and suborbital Virgil Grissom rocket flights is moving forward as rapidly as possible. George M. Low, chief of NASA's manned flight program, said Sunday the Soviet feat had been anticipated by U.S. space officials, but probably could not be duplicated by this country for "quite some time." The attempt expected this month to orbit an unmanned Mercury capsule would employ an Atlas rocket more than four times as powerful as the Redstone used in the Shepard and Grissom flights.

If the craft is launched success. fully more and orbits, recovered the next after, MercuryAtlas shot -according to present plans have a chimpanzee aboard. Only after the effects on the animal have been observed does NASA plan to risk a human life. The manned orbital flight is still on the agency's calendar for late this year, but officials privately have been dubious that it could be achieved before early 1962. Low said the United States has more ambitious plans for its Apollo program, which would follow Mercury.

Apollo is designed to land at least one man and possibly three on the moon "within the decade." The Apollo capsule is yet built. Another NASA official, Dr. RobC. Seamans said NASA hopes to launch the first manned Apollo vehicle in late 1964 or early 1965. The mission would be to launch up to three men at a time in the capsule, which would make a prolonged orbit about the earth, with a maximum of two weeks.

Gen. Bernard A. Schriever, head of the U.S. military space effort, said after Russian cosmonaut Gherman, Titov reportedly landed that the flight was "quite a feat." But Schriever said it was to be expected in Viente. of Soviet achievements to NASA officials had no immediate comment on the Russian report that Titov had been recovered safely and indicated it may have none.
