Berlin Crisis Talks Narrow to Soviet Assurance on Interference
U S officials say if Andrei Gromyko gives satisfactory assurances of no interference with the Western position in Berlin during the moratorium the plan could be lifted and the Soviet threat reduced. Western demands include limits on U S British and French forces and a curb on propaganda and subversive activity in Berlin and beyond. A key issue is Soviet acceptance that curbs apply to East as well as West Berlin and the makeup of a joint East West German committee.
