The start of the three-day con- ference coincided with intellig- ence reports of mounting anti-| Communist unrest in Comu-| nist East Germany. | The theory was gaining ground in Western circles that | whose threats to sign a peace treaty with East Germany touched off the current crisis, now is in some danger of run- ning into trouble in the puppet state. Intelligence reports indicate the rulers of East Germany are unable to contain the growing anti-Russian feeling there. The situation is even being com- pared with 1953 when the East Germans revolted briefly. A revolt .in East Germany would make the Berlin situation even more explosive than it now is. It could confront the Western powers with the prob- lem of what to do if West Ger- man citizens seek to cross the frontier to aid their kinsmen in the east, That is just one of the rea- sons, informants said, why the EAST GERMAN UNREST PROBLEM FOR RUSSIA West's Foreign Ministers Meet level, would provide a face sav- ing get-out for Khrushchev. The western ministers -- U.S. secretary of state Dean Rusk, Britain's Lord Home, Maurice Couve de Murville of France and West Germany's Heinrich von Brentano--plan to hammer at a comon course of diplo- matic, political and military ac- tion. It is designed to convince Khrushchev the West will defy any Communist move against the 2,200,000 West Berliners iso- lated 110 miles behind the iron curtain. On his arrival Friday Rusk made it clear the West would talk with the Soviet Union if Moscow refrained from sabre- rattling threats. Soviet notes issued to the three western powers said that Khrushchev also was leaning to- ward negotiation--but unwilling to back down on the threat to sign a treaty with East Ger- many and turn over to East Germany the control of allied access routes to Berlin. Russia called on the big three to "consider their negative po- sition" and agree to negotiate on a German peace treaty. In a memorandum to West Germany, handed to the Bon ambassador in Moscow at the same time, Russia said the to negotiate with the Soviet Un- ion if a way can be found for {doing so devoid of any threats, question of a peace treaty and a set! t of the V Ye lin siwation "must be solves {bers of the 'central committe foreign ministers or the summitlof this year." lor candidate bers can be {fired only by a two-thirds ma- jority at a full meeting of the committee by secret ballot.

Plot To Smuggle | | LONDON (AP) -- A British charter airline today reported discovering a plot to smuggle arms to African trouble spots in air-freight boxes labelled as nuts. Officials said they suspect the Chinese Communists were be- hind attempts to use the airline as an unwitting carrier of arms destined for Angola and Algeria. One of Scotland Yard's top agents, Superintendent George Gale, was called in to investi- Air Safaris, the charter firm, said the plot first came to light two months ago in Tripoli, Libya. "We were told to keep quiet Arms Uncovered at the time because of the great political significance attached to this," a spokesman said. He said the airline received an order to pick up a consignment of almonds in Libya and fly it to Las Palmas in the Canary Islands. The two British pilots, sus- picious about the weight of one box, pried it opén and found mortars, mortar bombs and grenades. All hore Chinese markings and inside each box was a book of instructions in Chinese. The consignment was left in Tripoli. The airline was forbidden to disclose from whom it received the charter.
