ALLIES Continue rroin one there is no counterpart ” Foreign Ministers Conference The Western powers were reported to have agreed that there should be a foriegn ministers' conference with Russia sometime before May 27, the Soviet deadline for the Allies to quit Berlin. Dulles told Congress before his trip to Europe that the United States and its Allies were in "complete agreement” that it would be better to risk war than abandon West Berlin to the Communists. He stated his views to the House Foreign Affairs Committee. The congressmen made public an edited version of his testimony Sunday night. While the Allies are agreed on the basic proposition of standing firm in Berlin, he said, there was no full agreement even within the U.S. government on what they should do in every contingency that might arise in the German city. Last-Minute Pressure Dulles told the committee that he expected the Russians to “keep the pressure on until the very last minute” to force the Allies to back down on Berlin. Meanwhile, West Berlin Mayor Willy Brandt said the Soviets would be ’*tinwise” to impose another blockade on West Berlin because of the' unfavorable impact it would have on world opinion. Brandt, who is visiting the United States, said on the "Meet the Press” television program that West Berlin “wouldn’t be under an immediate danger of starvation” if another blockade is started.

Rio was a whirl of gaiety today as the three-daj carnival that Ushers in Lent each year picked up speed. , Police said the celebration was quieter than usual — at latest reports, only 943 persons had been \ treated for injuries. ’i Miss first ran into difficulties at a dance, in the Co- ! pacabana Palace Hotel on her arrival. Her extremely low-cut [ gown caused a virtual traffic jam ! outside the hotel. About 2 aim, other daaebrs

•Isaid, Miss Mansfield caused an- : other commotion by climbing I onto a chair to do an impromptu shimmy. i This time, the crowd that gath- ■ ered around her began snatching i at the rosebunds sewn to the bodice of her dress. Then someone , pulled the zipper at the back of . the dress, other hands grabbed, , and the upper part of the dress » disintegrated. [ Miss Mansfield's husband, Mickey Hargitay, threw his jacket i over her shoulders and forced a

I way through the crowd to the door. "For a minute there, I was really frightened for Jayne,” Hargitary said later. “I had a helluva time getting her out of the dance.” Miss Mansfield said ruefully that her dress was not only ruined, but she collected a number of black-and-blue spots where pinchers had been at work.
