Today's For , cast: Sunny Please VOL. 59, No. 139 May Compromise ' eds on Accesses West With any (W)—Diplomatic informants said yes is prepared to make a deal with the Soviet d permit East Germans to man the check d routes between West Germany and isolated BONN, Ger terday the West Union that wou points on overla West Berlin. But the We terners are ready to push their way into Berlin either on the ground or in the air if the Soviets reject the deal, these informants said. The question of access routes to Berlin is at the heart of the Soviet challenge which motivated !the East-West foreign minister 3 conference opening in Geneva !Monday. The Western package plan to be presented at Gerfeva, deals with Berlin, German reunifica tion, and a military security zone in Europe. The Soviets have implied they will not act alone to revise the status of Berlin unless the Geneva talks fail. Last fall, the Soviet Union theatened to give up its occupa tion controls in Communist East Germany and turn over to that satellite control of the routes used by the United States, Britain and France to supply their 12,000 troops in West Berlin. The Western powers have said they will not accept the substitu tion of the East Germans for the Soviet Union. This looks like an impasse, but qualified diplomatic sources explained the West will accept East Germany border inspec tors, not in their own right but, as agents of the Soviet Union provided either the Soviets des ignate the East German person nel as their agents, or the So viets do not qtlit the wartime occupation agreements. The Bonn sources expreSsed hope the Soviets might be willing to compromise by hanging on to token occupation rights in East Berlin. Under such a compromise, the !sourcess said, the Brtish, French and Americans would accept East Germans at the checkpoints but with the understanding that dis putes would be carried to the! Soviet ,Union.

Approval On Party The University Senate Thursday sent back to committee a proposal that would make political party chairmen per sonally responsible for their party's debts. If approved, the addition to the Regulations for Under graduate Students could result in the . party -chairman's diploma being withheld if the debts were not made good by the time he was to be graduated. Proposed by the Senate Com mittee on Student Affairs, the ad dition to the regulations grew out of what the committee called "the unhappy aftermath of the demise of Lion party in 1958." R. Wallace Brewster, profes sor of political science objected to the proposal on the grounds that it made the University a "collection agency." Other senators objected because it might put the blame on the wrong person and the fact that there were no records available showing exactly which students were in each Party.
