Throughout the city, small . groups gathered to dtiruas the new* «rs Uk summit failure and speculate »haa and bow ttw Communist* would renew their assault on West Berlin independence The I atmosphere was one of quiet resignation, rather than leer or I panic. The visit cd the flamboyant Soviet premier to the Eastern sector on bis way home from Paris was expected by many to result in a new ultimatum for the withdrawal of US., British and French troop*. The status «d these forces in West Berlin was one of the key issues the Paris meeting was supposed to have re- | solved. Considered less imminent was Khrushchev * threat Io sign a separate peace treaty with East Germany, thus putting Berlin's exi post'd communication lifelines to the West in the hands of satellite functionaries and setting the stage for another blockade East German leaders themselves said Tuesday night no such treaty would be signed pending further attempts to negotiate a peace including both Germanies. West Berliners had not expected the summit meeting to result in any major agreements about their status, but they had hoped lit would help remove them from the shadow of a Communist coup. •Anything can happen now." was the typical reaction of workers, businessmen, cabbies and the like who were interviewed on the street

Voice Os America's Broadcasts Jammed WASHINGTON ,(UP I) — The Voice of America said its Russian language news broadcasts were almost completely "blotted out” by a combination of “heavy jamming” and poor atmospheric conditions. Officials said Soviet jammers appeared to have cracked down eVen harder since Monday, when only the first nine minutes of 15 minute broadcasts were jammed. Radio Free Europe also reported that Communist jamming of its broadcasts continued without let-up. FRE said too tfigt Communist , stations were distorting the news out of Paris and other world capitals about the summit conference collapse. As a “typical” example, FRE Said Radio Sofia falsely quoted Adlai Stevenson as saying: “If we want to safeguard peace, the Americans must leave Europe and Berlin.” Russia relaxed jamming at the time of Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev’s trip here last September. The jamming was stepped up May 5 when Khrushchev announced a U.S. reconnaissance plane had been shot down in Russia.

Commissioners View Used Gravel Loader The county commissioners left at noon today to inspect a used gravel loader at Butler, that the county is considering buying for about S9OO. The county is now negotiating the purchase of from 15,000 to 20,000 cubic yards of gravel at 80 cents a cubic yard, which weighs 2,700 pounds. This compares with a price of $1.45 for a ton, or 2,000 pounds, of crushed stone. The gravel is now being measured. To lead the gravel, a buckettype loading machine is needed. The machines rent for between S9OO and $1,300 a month, about as much as the county hopes to pay for a used machine. • QUALITY PHOTO FINISHING AU Work Left Before Noon on Thursday ...

Aaiwrr: The Wen tern big three. President Elsenhower. British Prime Minister Harold Mac millan. and French President Charles de Gaulle, decided at a meeting in Paris last December to invito Soviet Premier Nikits Khrushchev to summit talks Al! four agreed to meet on May 18 and on a tentative agenda: disarmament, the future of divided Berlin. German rcunification. and the improvement of ; East-West relations Q What led up to the Allied invitation to Khrushchev? A: Khrushchev's ultimatum in November. 1868. in which he demanded the Allies quit West Berlin within six months. He later removed his time limit. 1 Hopes of Allies ’ Q What were the major Allied hopes for the conference’ A: They hoped to make some progress in disarmament by getting Khrushchev to agree on some specific items, such as banning nuclear warheads in outer space and putting in an inspection system to guard against surprise attack. They also thought it possible to sign a treaty banning nuclear weapons tests. Q: What, so’ far as is known, did the Soviets hope to achieve at the lime the conference was arranged. x , A: Eisenhower and the other Western leaders believed ghat Khrushchev wanted to make some progress on disarmament, principally to reduce-his nation's economic burden. They also thought he wanted to get a nuclear test ban. . . .. They knew, too, that he would like to pressure them into negotiating separate treaties with East and West Berlin and pulling Western forces out of West Berlin But the Allies had no intention of giving in on those points. Khrushchev, at the time of the summit preparations, acted as though he honestly wanted better relations with the West. Reason For Collapse Q: What was the major reason for the conference collapse? A : The immediate reason was Khrushchevs refusal to meet with Eisenhower unless the President apologized for the spy plane incident, promised to punish those responsible for it, and pledged never to send another military intelligence craft over the Soviet Union. ... Q: What were Khrushchev s real reasons for wrecking the conference? ... A: They are believed to include various internal probßiws, such as the fact that important elements in the Soviet army and party leadership were increasingly discontented with his softer policy toward the West. So were the Chinese Communists, who opposed the summit from the start. Qi What efforts did the West make to meet Khrushchev’s conditions? . A: Eisenhower announced that the spy flights had >eeh Suspended and would not be resumed as long as he was president. He offered to submit a new and broader “open skies” plan for international air inspection under United Nations control. He said such a system would eliminate the need for aerial espionage. Q: What efforts did the Soviet Union make to meet the West half-way? A: None, at least publicly. Effects of Failure Q: What are the most serious effects of the summit failure? A: The most serious immediate effect probably is that it has re-
