The first four are members of NATO, the latter two members of the Soviet-run Warsaw Pact. The Berlin proposal was something of a surprise, al though his address in the Kremlin Palace of Congresses had been expected to touch major issues of the East-West cold war. Cites War Danger Khrushchev also told the ' 2.000 delegates that the dan ger of a sudden incident set ting off World War III was genuine. He said all "mankind may be drawn into it if de termined measures ' are not taken." His disarmament proposals "represented nothing new. But his call on Berlin was seen immediately by informed ob servers as an apparent shift In the Soviet position. Previously, the Communists have called for replacement of the Big Three Western gar risons by United Nations or neutral troops. "The success of the efforts of unifying all the peoples and all who want to live and build against the threat of a new world war, depends large ly on the peace fighters," Khrushchev told the gather ing in the Kremlin Palace of Congresses. Khrushchev spoke after the 2.000 delegates had heard a morning of almost continuous praise for Soviet policy and condemnation of American NEWSC ITIMS FROM TAX CUT SYMPATHY NOTED Wihinaton-'IPI'-Senale Democratic Whip phrey said today the Kennedy administration ii "more sympa thetic than ever" to the idea of an immediate tax cut but wants to defer final decision lor about another month.
