HAMBURG RESIDENTS SUPPORT BERLINERS—Residents of
Hamburg, Germany, stood in the rain at a mass meeting out
side the City Hall July 3, when they pledged aid to residents of
the western sector of Berlin, cut off from normal supplies by
the Russian blockade. The a.000 at the meeting voted to give
up one day’s ration of food for the Berliners. The meeting was
sponsored by the three non-Communist parties.

“They won t work today,” he said.
President Truman has the author

operations.

Document
<Continued From First Page.i
Le Figaro, which claimed to have
a copy of the Soviet order, one
source said: "I cannot vouch for
that particular communique, but
everything in it is true.”
The communique which Le Figaro
said was issued to German Com
munists in Berlin by the secretary
general of the party there, ordered
the "disorganization” of electrical
power and other essential services.
The newspaper's account was
written by Roger Massip, chief of
the foreign service of Figaro.
The Radical - Socialist paper
L'Aurore carried about the same
information and said its story came
from London sources.
Eight Parts in Statement.
The statement which appeared
in Figaro was broken down into
eight parts.
1. Disorganization of electricity
"and other essentials.”
2. Demonstrations in all sectors
calling for unified government and
a unified monetary system.
3. Communist demonstrators will
be attacked by police and "it must
be assumed that there will be
numerous dead and wounded.”
4. When this situation "has been
created” Soviet troops will occupy
the entire city of Berlin, plus the
suburbs. Soviet forces will order
the Western Allies into limited ter-j
ritorv where "their safety can be
guaranteed.”
5. A state of "general public c"i
sis” will be declared at a mass meet
ing of workers and a provisional
government set up “by our Son
dereinsatz-truppen.”
6. This will take place only in
case of aggravated tension between
the U. S. S. R. and the Western
Powers.
Detailed Orders to Follow.
7. All decisions shall be referred
beforehand to the Central Commit
tee of the party. Detailed orders,
will be released later.
8. The present document shall be
destroyed as soon as special officers
and delegates of the Central Com
mittee have taken due note of the
information they need.
A diplomatic source said that
"We have been aware for a long
time that demonstrations have been
called for.”
Asked if he thought the orders
came from Moscow, he replied,
"that's obvious."
Berlin
(Continued From First Page.)
Allies have liaison officers attached
there.
Police in the Soviet sector stepped
up their campaign against Germans,
possessing the new Western
Duetsche marks which are illegal ini
Russian-occupied areas. News
papers said the police were making
checks at public gatherings and
especially at black market hang
outs.
The pinch of the Russian block
ade in the Soviet occupation zone it
self began to show. The British
licensed newspaper Telegraf said a
shortage of insulin had developed in
Russian-occupied territory.
Seek New 4-Power Talks.
Meanwhile, the Russians implied
that they are using the blockade as
a weapon to bring about new four
power talks on Germany.
A hint of Soviet eagerness for such
talks was contained last night in
the Russian - licensed newspaper
Nacht Express. It said:
"The Western powders must again
take up the conversations on Ger
many where they left them at Pots
dam. If that happens with success
I
r
■ ^
—and it must be successful—the sit
uation in Berlin will be automatical
ly clarified.”
Observers in Berlin found it hard
to reconcile the statement in Nacht
Express with the claim of Russian
officials that repairs on the Helm
stedt rail line caused that vital link j
to Western Berlin to be shut down.

said the Egyptian government had
drawn plans to call 21 Islamic
nations to a parley here to discuss
the project.
Most Jerusalem Jews resent Count!
Bernadotte's mediation suggestions,
particularly the one which would
place the Holy City under Arab rule
with Jewish autonomy in certain
sections.
Soldiers and civilians alike say:
"Let's get on with the fighting.” j

Washington today especially for this
meeting. He brought with him to
Mr. Lovett's office Canadian Am
bassador Hume Wrong, and Minis-;
ter Thomas A. Stone.
They also went in the back way, I
avoiding reporters waiting in the
lobby.
The presence of the Canadians in
the security discussion was viewed
as a possible recognition of the
strategic importance of Canada's;
Arctic region in the European se
curity picture.
The State Department went to
great lengths to maintain secrecy
both as to the contents of the note
to the Russian government and as
to details of the talk with Western
envoys. Before the talks began
press officers at the embassies con
cerned said they had been told by
the State Department to say noth
ing about the talk, even including
the time for which it was scheduled.
The Western diplomats conferred
in Mr. Lovett’s office until shortly
before 1 pm. A statement was
promised later.
The five European nations repre-;
sented are members of a western
organization formed to co-ordinate
economic and political as well as
military problems common to all of
them.
Talks Today Are Preliminary.
Today's meeting was described as
largely ‘'preliminary'' to the extent
that the immediate problem before
the diplomats is to figure out how
to proceed in tackling the two
great political and military issues
which now confront the Western
powers.
A foreign diplomat said these
two issues are:
In the political field, how to go
about obtaining an alliance or some
other form of military support by
the United States for the Western
European bloc.
In the military field, determina
tion of the kind and extent of
American arms and equipment
which may be needed to provide
reasonably adequate defenses against
any possible Russian attack.
