United States accom- panied its rejection of the Com- mittee's proposals by memorandum declaring that the split in Berlin had gone too far to make it possible to establish four-power control over currency and trade.
The United States, therefore, made an alternative proposal, under which the Soviet mark would be introduced throughou! Berlin, but exclusively under Western control in the Western sectors of the
city. The Soviet Union, under this proposal, would have been asked to erect a trade and currency curtain
around the
plan out of order.
The Committee thereupon gave its up its efforts and reported failure to the President of the Security Council.
All five members of the Com- mittee signed the report, which gave a chronological account of the various moves in the com- promise efforts. But the Argen- tine expert, Dr. R. Ares, append- ed a note criticising the Com- mittee for having decided not to try to apportion the blame be- tween the Big Four for failure of the negotiations.
