If they show there is a real possibility for further East-West agreements, the sources said, they may be followed by a summit meeting be-j tween President Kennedy, Khrushchev and British Prime Minister Harold Macmillan.

Thereby efforts could be made to bring about the disappearance of the Berlin wall.

Senate To Pass WASHINGTON UPI) - The Senale was expected to pass to day a SI.2 billion military pay raise bill providing increases Oct. 1 for almost all officers and en listed personnel in the armed services. Designed to encourage careers in the military and prevent loss of trained personnel to private in dustry, the bill represents the lirst general pay increase for the services since 1938. i Backers hoped lo finish Senatel action on it today and send it to a House-Senate conference'''com- mittee to work out a final com promise with a different version passed earlier by the House. The administration-backed pay boost was approved unanimously Monday by the Senate Armed Services Committee. It would provide increases rang ing from S5 to $120 a month for 1.9 million officer.! and enlistedl personnel on active duty, and also! raise the pay ol reserves and 417,000 retired military; men The Senate version, drafted by a cnWrmmmiHaa hanAaA hu Son r, .J ,., , ' nuwam t. vaimuii, u-nev., uii- ierea in a numDer oi Key areas from the House measure.

The Weyerhaeuser plant which wns closed to employes following the day shift June 7, affected some 1,1110 men. The shutdown was the outgrpwth of a labor dispute involving the timber industry and representa tives and members of the lW'A and the LSW unions.

Coordinating committees of the two unions scheduled a 3 p.m meeting to make a decision n the management proposal.

Lowry Wyatt, Tacoma, vice president of Weyerhaeuser Co. and spokesman for employer group said attempts to resume operation would begin Wednesday at plants of the four members which were) .shut down June' 7 in retaliation or a strike called two days car licr against the other two mem bers. About 20.000 members of the 1WA and LSW are idled at Big Six plants in Oregon, Washington, California and Montana. Some 9, 000 other union members are out on strike against other companies in the region including the Georgia-Pacific Corp.

'The association believes k is in the public interest to provide this opportunity fo.- employes to return to work at this time." Wvatt said the employers would continue to seek settlement for the dispute. He indicated willingness lo meet with the unions at any lime there appeared to be a pos sibility of reaching an agreement. Committee Holds Up Rail Plan WASHINGTON UP1 - A con gressional committee today held up action on President Kennedy's plan for settling the rail dispute to await results of a renewed ne gotiations between the industry and the train unions. The House Commerce Commit- tee suspended consideration of the administration plan after be ing briefed by Labor Secretary W. Willard Wirtz. Chairman Oren Harris, D-Ark., said afler the closed session with Wirlz that the committee's next step would depend on "any fur ther developments. Harris did not divulge any de tails of Wirtz's "status report" on the possibility of a negotiated set tlement. Harris said he was not at liberty" to speculate whether labor and management might be able to resolve their controversy without congressional action. Another member of the com mittee said that he felt "neither more or less optimistic" after the session with Wirtz. He indicated that Wirtz himself was not willjng at this point to appraise cnanccs oi success. Resume Negotiations Meanwhile, carrier and union officials resumed negotiations with guidance from the Labor De partment. "This was a useful session," said Assistant Labor Secretary James J. Reynolds following a two-hour meeting, "I think both sides are seriously addressing Wiemselvcs to the suggestions -Secretary Wirtz made for bar- gaming. Kcynows conducted tne meeting along with Chairman Francis A. O'Neill Jr. of the National Media tion Board. This morning's meeting in volved the carriers and represen tatives of the Firemen's end En gineers unions. Another session between the railroads and three train - service brotherhoods Con- ductors, Trainmen and Switch- men was set for later today. Described As Exploratory The negotiations first face-to-f a c e bargaining sessions in several weeks were described as "exploratory" by Reynolds. It was learned tliat a recent "suggestion" for renewed negotia tions put forth by Wirtz to both sides revolved around general recommendations made last spring by a presidential emer gency board. Wirtz's proposals apparently would modify the board plan so that some of tlie features considered objectionable by the unions would be altered.
