Soviet Rejects Big 3 Request To Lift ‘Siege’
Allies Consult On Next Move
‘WASHINGTON, July 15 (UP)
his lined face. “There’s no ass —A. State Department spokesman
said today the United States will stay in Berlin despite Soviet refusal to lift the blockade. Press Officer Lincoln White was asked at a news conference if Soviet rejection of the threepower protest on Berlin changed American policy on Berlin in any way. : “There is absolutely no change in our position,” he replied. Mr. White said this country is in almost constant’ communication with Britain and Frarce about possible next moves by the three powers to break the Berlin siege. But he would not speculate on what action might develop.
Britain Also Vows To Stay in Berlin
LONDON, July 15 (UP)—The western allies may carry their demand for the immediate lifting of the Berlin blockade direct to Premier Josef Stalin, informed sources indicated today. A foreign office spokesman said flatly that “it is our firm and unshakable intention to remain in Berlin.” *® Another informant stated: “Stalin made the deal with us in 1945 for the western withdrawal of troops around Berlin. Now Mr. Molotov (Soviet Foreign Minister V. M. Molotov) is repudiating it. “It would certainly be logical to carry the case to the Russian ‘court of last resort’ before turning to other action.” ‘Put Up or Shut Up’ “We must now put up or shut
: up,” one official said, “and state-
ments by the western powers make it impossible for us to shut, up at this point.” i This possibility was raised while Foreign Secretary Ernest Bevin told the British cabinet that Russia's refusal to lift the Berlin blockade posed a serious challenge to the prestige and even the honor of the western powers. The Soviet reply was delivered to the western foreign offices yesterday and broadcast to the world by the Moscow radio last night. It was described by officials here as “completely unsatisfactory” and “one of the baldest attempts to pervert the record in recent history.” : The Soviet reply categorically rejected all charges made by the West. And it turned those charges around and placed the total blame for the crisis in Berlin and Germany as a whole upon “systematic violation” by the West of all ents. The Russians said they slapped the blockade of all land transport on Berlin to prevent economic chaos when the Western powers introduced their new currency to their sectors of the city. The section of the note which angered Western officials the| most was a Soviet contention | that the Western Allies were in both Berlin and Vienna primarily because of Russian courtesy, since both cities were captured “only” by Soviet troops. American troops held up ‘their final drive into Berlin in accord
with an earlier agreement for the
{Soviet capture of that city. !
