A Western clash of arms with the Soviets could start a nuclear war. So an explosion in East Germany is not wanted by the West.

It's a tricky situation in which Nlkita Khrushchev Is playing brinkmanship to the hilt and gambling on what gains he can achieve short of provoking war. He has said he will sign a separate peace treaty with East Germany this year if East and West cannot agree. If he does, the United States will not go to war over that alone, but it has tried to make it plain that it will not be evicted from West Berlin, It will not see the liberties of West Ber-liners destroyed and it will not yield the right to access by the West to West Berlin. ministry charged in issuing the order that West Berllners had used their vehicles "to aid Western espionage agents in hostile acts against the German Democratic Republic (East Germany)." The decree, announced by the East German news agency ADN, was the first direct measure against West Berllners in the current crisis, touched off Sunday by anti-refugee orders that ban East Germans from crossing into West Berlin. Up to now West Berlin citizens had been able to drive into East Berlin without even having to show their vehicle registration papers.

THERE WAS no word In the announcement about cars of the three Western allies, tourists or West Germans. Nor did it indicate how and where the new permits would be Issued. The announcement came after Communist troops armed with machlneguns and bayonets slammed the Brandenburg Gate shut in the faces of thousands of angry West Berllners. The abrupt closing of the main crossing point between East and West Berlin set off stone-throwing by the Western demonstrators and retaliatory tear-gassing by the Reds. But West German Chancellor Konrad Adenauer declared the West is ready and willing to stand up to the Soviets and their East ne Benin crisis.

At the height of the outburst at Brandenburg Gate, West German police stepped In and pushed the West Berlin demonstrators back more than a mile to minimize chances of a close-quarters battle. Some of the tear gas blew back on the Communist troops enforcing the anti-refugee orders that bar East Germans from crossing into West Berlin. The Brandenburg Gate symbol of divided Germany was one of 13 crossing points left open for resl-, dents of West Berlin by the Communist clampdown orders Issued Sunday. THROUGH THE night the Reds had 25 soldiers of the East German People's Army standing in front of the gate, some with fixed bayonets, some with submachine-guns. Behind them were four hose trucks to deal with any demonstrators from West Berlin.

Under the arches stood armed personnel carriers, behind them were half-tracks and a few hundred yards farther back, Soviet-made T-34 tanks. -The East German TV station interrupted its regular evening program to introduce Gerhart Eisler, who fled from the United States to East Germany and became one of the Reds' chief propagandists. He warned West Berllners of a "stm more disagreeable surprise" if they try to test out the Communists. get testimony about vice and gambling before the grand Jury. "If people make themselves available to the jury," Mr.

Breckinridge said, "I assume the judge (Hill) intends that these people should be heard." Speaking for the ministerial anti-vice campaigners, Mr. Anggells said: "All our witnesses who have information have been told to make themselves available. And we are going to follow through with requests to be heard by the grand Jury." Mr. Wise indicated he doubted the value of such testimony. "So far as I know, their testimony is likely to be hearsay," he said.

"It might be received by the jurors, but it's less effective than first-hand evidence." HE CONCEDED that If the reform groups had any first-hand evidence, such as actual observation of gambling or prostitution, the grand Jury should receive It. Judge Hill's Interrogation of prospective Jurors was vlolation of International agreements. Unofficially our side is quite satisfied. While this thinking may seem cynical, the behind-the-scenes position is this: Our government has not encouraged the flow of East German refugees, We do not want a de-Germanized East Germany which might be colonized by the Soviets, It Is better to have these staunch elements who are fleeing East Germany to head a movement for reunification of the two Ger-manys If it should come. If self-determination ever should be granted, their votes would be pro-western, whereas non-German colonists presumably would be pro-Communist.

In shutting off the flow of East German refugees to West Berlin, the Communists have told the world of their unpopular hold on the population and at the same time they have imprisoned In East Germany elements which would support the West If a showdown should come. There Is an element of risk to the facing by the West of one direction officially and another direction unofficially. Suppose that demonstrations, based on the encouragement contained In U. S. statements, should occur in East Germany.

The United States and its Western allies then would be faced with a repetition of their dilemma in the uprising in Hungary. Should they go to the aid of the patriots? They did not do so in Hungary. And the United States would not desire to become involved In violence inside East Germany. Demonstrations there would be suicide for the demonstrators. There are Daugher For Dahl SANTA MONICA, Aug.

Both men denied this and Judge Murphy voluntarily vacated the bench, but Mr. Wise successfully fought an attempt to replace him. Mrs. Jackson failed to appear in court yesterday. Mr.

Wise had subpoenaed her and four Campbell County residents whom he declined to name to testify before the grand Jury. MR. WISE said the Jefferson County sheriff's office at Louisville had returned Mrs. Jackson's subpoena, saying she could not be found and indicating that her parole officer didn't have her address. She is known to have moved several times because of threats and obscene telephone calls following her payoff testimony at Frankfort.

"I dont think it's possible for her not to know she's wanted as a witness," Mr. Wise commented, adding that he saw no use in issuing another subpoena. Mr. Wise said he had ordered service of eight or nine more subpoenas yesterday, but again he declined to name the persons sought for testimony. John B.

Breckinridge, Kentucky attorney general who had attempted to oust Mr. Wise on the ground that potential witnesses might be intimidated by his presence, sat In the courtroom with two of his assistants, Troy Savage and William Watson. "We are here without any authority before this court," he emphasized. "We want to be of help in providing witnesses and testimony."

And Harlan Circuit Judge Edward G. Hill, sitting in for Campbell Circuit Judge Ray Murphy, made it a near certainty that anti-vice campaigners will be permitted to tell Jurors that gambling and vice have run unchecked In Newport and Campbell County. "We will not confine our-selves to the charges concerning certain public officials," Judge Hill told prospective Jurors.

"You will be given a general charge relative to investigating conditions in Campbell County, so far as you may find violations of criminal law." Judge Hill was able yesterday to seat tentatively only nine Jurors from a 36-member panel originally picked by Judge Murphy. Of these 31 put In an appearance. But Judge Hill excused 22 for reasons varying from illness and pregnancy to open admissions of some connection with vice and gambling interests in Campbell County. JUDGE HILL picked 15 more names from a Jury wheel and ordered those persons to appear at 9 a. m.

today. He must qualify a total of 12 persons before he can charge the Jury on how to begin its Investigation. Judge Murphy called the Jury into session July 27, two months earlier than usual, to investigate the charge of Mrs. Hattie Jackson, 42, one-time Newport prostitute and "madam," that she paid off 11 Newport police and city officials so she could operate the Haldi Club, 118 W.

They will be held on duty for periods varying from six months to a year.

The order is part of the Police To Seek 8 Pay Increase Representatives of Cincinnati policemen today will ask an 8 across-the-board salary boost for department members when they meet with W.

He asked: Are you closely socially connected with any public officials or police? Do you have any connection with what has been called "the ring of vice" in Newport and Campbell County? Do you have friends or relatives who work at gambling places? Have you been approached by anyone since you were named as a prospective Juror? A key question one that disqualified several persons was, "Could you, without fear or favor, return an indictment regardless of the personalities or the charge, if the evidence pointed to guilt?" One of the first questioned, a woman, said she had a relative "where they make book." She was excused. Several others were told to step aside when they said they had friends or relatives who might be Involved in the proceedings, military buildup program and is designed to help the Navy expand toward its new authorized strength of 657,000 from a present level of about 626,000.

The Involuntary extension of active duty applies to both regular and reserve personnel. It will affect some 80 officers and 1600 enlisted men whose present tours of duty would begin to expire next month. During October, some 400 officers and 2800 enlisted men will be affected. The total over these and succeeding months will lncolve 24,000 men and 2800 officers. The freeze will be applied on the basis of special skills and rates.

Most of the officers will be line officers (aboard ships) or aviators and in the rank of lieutenant commander or below. A spokesman said that enlisted men involved In the freeze would include such categories as parachute riggers, signalmen, bosun's mates, aviation Jet mechanics and boiler repair men. The total involved will represent about 30 of the officers and enlisted men who had been scheduled to leave active duty next month and about 90 of officers and 30 of enlisted men in subsequent months through June 30 The Navy said the figures Newport Ministerial Association.

In addition, the FOP will recommend that policemen be allowed to convert Into cash the extra vacation days they earn by accumulating unused sick leave. Mr.

Klefer said the pay hike, if granted, would raise a patrolman's annual salary from $6030 to $6512. The latest raise for police became effective January 1 in the 1961 city operaUng budget It amounted to .8 Increase, compared to a request for a 7 hike, he added. THE RIDER pertains to what Is called the "sick with pay vacation grant," Mr. Kiefer said. An officer normally Is allowed 15 paid sick days a year.

After 10 years' service he Is allowed five extra vacation days If he has accumulated 60 un used sick days. After five years, he Is given three extra vacation days for the 60-day accumulation. Police are asking to be allowed to accept cash Instead of the extra days off. "This will relieve more men for duty," the FOP president said. "In place of taking days off, those who select it would be paid for them and would work those days." Wage negotiations are Invited yearly at this time in preparing the city's budget, Kiefer said.

Police wage requests are made separately from those submitted by unions representing 4000 city workers. Friday these unions listed an across-the-board Increase of 20 cents an hour among 14 wage-and-hour demands submitted to Acting City Manager William C. Wlchman.

The Navy is expected to announce shortly a substantial Increase in the number of ships in the fleet.

There has been speculation that the total added to the fleet or held In commission beyond originally scheduled de commissioning dates might reach 80. The Navy announcement today is the most recent of a series of actions by the military to increase readiness of conventional forces in line with the Kennedy administration's program for a defense buildup. Earlier, the Air Force had advised 71 Air National Guard and Air Reserve units that they might be called into active service. The Army has announced that three training divisions are being converted into combat divisions. Much of the added man BALMORAL, Scotland, Aug.
