2 Th Newi-Review, Roseburg, Ore. Fri., Oct. 27, 1961 Red Tanks Move Up As U. S. Jeeps Make New Armed Thrust In Berlin BERLIN (AP) American and Russian tanks trained guns on each other from range of MO yarda in the explosive center of Berlin tonight. Five American and seven So viet tanks were at the dangerous Friedrichstrasse crossing point between Hast and West iierlin. No traffic was passing hetween East and West Berlin, although West Berlin police insisted that the border still was officially opcn- . . The U.S. command announced the entire 6.500 man American garrison in Berlin wai on a gen eral battle alert "because of the eriousness of the situation." The critical situation developed after tanks of both powers ma neuvered to and from the border in the wake of an armed U S. thrust into East Berlin. Finally they stood faring each other across the line that sepa rates East and West sectors. The Americans were inches from the white line marking the border. The Russian tanks stood 200 yards back in East Berlin. Between them was a rig-iag bar rier of concrete blocks no obsta cle if the tank commander! were ordered forward. Also standing between the forces were a few East German police Vonos who brought the tense Berlin situation to a head last Sunday when they started demanding identification from American civilians moving be tween the two halves of the city. The Communists sent tanks to the neighborhood of the Friedrich strasse crossing point after the United States made an armed thrust with military police and jeeps into East Berlin for the third successive day. The American foray was car ried out under the protecting guns of 10 Patton tanks and five ar mored personnel carriers. Im mediately after the thrust, the American equipment left the scene. Then seven Soviet tanks appeared within 100 yards of the frontier. The Red tanks lined up with their guns pointed at the Ameri can sector of Berlin. They re mained there slightly under 30 minutes, then departed. Almost immediately after the Red tanks left the explosive Friedrichstrasse intersection, five American tanks reappeared on the scene. They took up position right on the frontier. A U.S. spokesman said the five other American Patton tanka and five armored personnel carriers were being held in reserve in the immediate area of the checkpoint. A senior British army officer Identified the Red tanka as Soviet, manned by Soviet crews. They were presumahly from a group of 20M Soviet tanks mat movea into East Berlin Thursday night from neighboring East Germany.

Political Committee i scheduled to act on an appeal to today approved an Asian-African j the Sonet I'mon to cancel its demand for I quick vote on an I scheduled explosion of a SO-mega- appeal to all countries to halt all nuclear bomb tests now The vole was on a move by Ethiopia to suspend the nuclear debate temporarily to permit pri ority action on an a six-nation moratorium resolution. The vote was 44 22 with 29 ab staining. The United States and the other Western powers voted against the Ethiopian motion. The Soviet bloc abstained. The move was launched in the committee a few hours before the Court Upholds Morals Verdict The Oregon Supreme Court has upheld the Circuit Court for Doug las County in the case of Oregon vs. Robert Lister Burnett, accord ing to a copy of the opinion written by Justice F. Goodwin received by District Attorney Avery Thomp son Thursday. Burnett, 36, of Medford pleaded guilty to a charge of contributing to the delinquency of a minor, in volving morals, more than a year ago. Then Judge Eldon F. Caley ordered a psychiatric examination, as required in all morals offenses. Next Day Burnett asked permis sion to withdraw his guilty plea, and plead innocent, claiming that he was promised by the district attorney's office that his case would be treated as a misdemean or and that he would get off easy if he pleaded guilty, lie wanted to avoid publicity and protect his job, he stated. A full hearing was held for Bur nett by the court and his request to withdraw his plea was denied. He appealed to the Supreme Court and has been free in bail await ing the decision. District Attorney Avery Thomp son and Deputy George Weigum, who argued the state's case before the Supreme Court, said that Bur nett would be taken into custody and sentenced as soon as the high court's order on mandate is re ceived. The court in upholding the lower court decision ruled that there was nothing irregular in the han- was whether the trial court abused its descretion It was ruled the evidence show ed Burnett fully understood his rights, that he openly admitted his guilt and that he had not been pressured into his decision. He had brought up another point, that he l ad not been sent copies of the psychiatric report by mail. However, it was pointed out in the court decision that he had received such copies in court at a later date and had entered no objec tions at that time. "There being no error and no abuse of descretion, the judgment is affirmed, the opinion of Jus- tice Goodwin concluded. lann CSnrlt ICIIU JII1U I Funeral services for Ina Sindt, 95, who died Oct. 25 following a prolonged illness, will be held at Wilson's Chapel of the Roses Satur day at 11 a.m. with itev.

The assembly was expected to give overwhelming approval to the appeal to the Kremlin to halt the SO megaton bomb detonation. The assembly' announced it would take up the eight-nation resolution containing the appeal as soon as it acts on a Security CouncU recommendation to admit Outer Mongolia and Mauritania as the U N 's 102nd and 103rd members. Faced with the month-end dead line announced by Soviet Premier Khrushchev for triggering the giant bomb, the sponsors mapped out strategy to counter delaying tactics such as the Soviet bloc anil torn neutrals itsprt In vIbII the vote in the Dolitical com- resolution Wednesday by a vote of 75-10, but only after a stormy overtime session in which a pa rade of Communist and neutral delegates fought it every step of the way. The assembly vote was expect ed to be still stronger than that in the committee. Nigeria and El Salvador, two of the 15 members absent during the committee bal lot, indicated they would cast yes votes today. Soviet Delegate Semyon K. Tiarapkin has made plain the Kremlin would reject the appeal. He told the committee that ma neuvers by the NATO nations would not prevent the Soviet Un ion from perfecting its defenses. The political committee con tinued its nuclear test debate United States Thursday with the accusing India of trying to put it in the same boat with the Soviet Union as far as violation of the moratorium on nuclear tests was concerned. U.S. Delegate Arthur Dean as serted that India's attitude sound ed much like that of Khrushchev who has declared that American actions in Berlin forced Moscow to resume testing to build up its defenses. U Tha: t of Burma told news men that if the blr: powers were still deadlocked next week over getting a temporary U.N. secretary-general, he might have some thing to say about the stalemate. The United States and the So viet Union have agreed that the Burmese ambassador should suc ceed the late Dag Hammarskjold but they are still at odds on how many principal advisors he should have and which regions they should come from.
