BERLIN DISPUTE: DECIDING ON PROCEDURE
London, Sept. 27. --- American, British and French experts were meeting in Paris this evening at the French Foreign Office to decide the procedure to be followed in laying down the Berlin dispute before the United Nations Security Council. Of- cials expect that there will be a delay of some days before the Council discusses the question.
The three Foreign Ministers, after approving their experts' recommendations, will lodge a joint request with the Secretary General, Mr Trygve Lie, to pass on to the Chairman of the Security Council the demand for an urgent hearing of the dispute.
Mr Ernest Bevin's declaration to the Assembly to- day-largely a retort to that of the Soviet delegate, M. Andrei Vishinsky—was hailed by many delegations as a great speech.
Some of the comments included: Mr George Marshall: "Mr Bevin's

Paris, Sept. 27.-Britain, the United States and France are expected to deliver to the United Nations today a copy of their three-power note to Russia on the Berlin issue, with an urgent request to have it placed on the Security Council's agenda-probably within the next few days.
The note-which accuses Russia of threatening peace and international security by her attitude in Berlin-was handed to the Soviet Ambassadors in Washington and Paris and is being delivered in London today.
The Foreign Ministers of the three countries- Mr Ernest Bevin, Mr George Marshall and M. Robert Schuman drafted the note at the French Foreign Office yesterday in reply to the Russian note of Septem- ber 25, which, they declared yesterday, was "unsatis factory."
