Soviet warning on West Berlin raises tension in Europe
Moscow issued notes to Britain France and the United States accusing Western powers of aiming to use West Berlin as a base for hostile actions. The Soviet Union warned it may take decisive measures if Allied actions threaten East Germany and the Berlin garrison. The notes followed high level talks between Premier Khrushchev and East German leader Ulbricht and cited recent East German police shootings at the Berlin Wall as evidence of provocation by Western agents.

Senate vote sets limit on foreign aid spending
The Senate approved a 4.4 billion ceiling for foreign aid next fiscal year as the White House seeks flexibility. The measure, 61 to 23, blocks broad increases while funding authorization remains for programs in Latin America and European development. Separate votes kept aid to Yugoslavia and Poland under debate, with later adjustments allowing continued food aid and excluding certain arms coalitions. Kennedy welcomed the food aid flexibility as the administration sought to support independence movements amid Sino Soviet tensions.
