Khrushchev Is Given Warning On Harassment WASHINGTON (UPD—Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev’s “brinksmanship’’ on the Berlin highway apparently was designed to convince world Communist leaders he had not gone “soft” in dealing with the West, American officials said today. The United States, Britain and France warned Khrushchev late Wednesday, however, that he would be “responsible for all consequences” of further efforts to restrict Allied military They told him such harassment must end “once and for all.” The Allied warning, in stiff notes delivered at the Kremlin, came a few hours after Khrushchev had claimed the United States knuckled under to Soviet regulations to obtain release of a convoy delayed 41 hours on the. Berlin road. The State Department disputed this, saying the- United States made “no concessions.” ' Department officials said convoy troops neither dismounted nor lowered the tail gates of their trucks to facilitate a head check as the Russians had demanded. Khrushchev was meeting today with Communist leaders of about 25- countries gathered in Moscow to help celebrate the 46th anniversary of the Bolshevik Revolution. The Moscow meeting has been preceded by a series of Soviet harassments carefully designed to pinpoint the Berlin and German issues without, however, flaring to crisis proportions and wrecking entirely the era of better feeling created by the nuclear test ban treaty. The proposed sale of $250 million in American grain to Russia may be casualty of the short-lived Indian summer in Soviet-American relations. Khrushchev told a group of American businessmen in Moscow Wednesday he would not pay the premium required to ship the grain in American vessels. Administration officials have not found any way to eliminate this premium. GIRL SCOUTS Troop 418 Troop 418 met Monday at, the Bethany church. We started out by practicing our health aid. After we finished demonstrations vze went into our patrols. The patrols elected a patrol leader and assistant. We returned to the group and elected a scribe and treasurer.
