“NEUTRALS" TO PUT POINTED
QUESTIONS TO
BERLIN DISPUTANTS
Attempt To End Soviet Diplomatic Strike
RUSSIANS MAY PREFER A CONFLICT TO COMPROMISE
Paris, Oct. 14.-It was disclosed today that "neutral" countries in the United Nations Security Council would attempt tomorrow to break Russia's diplomatic sitdown strike against consideration of the Berlin crisis.
Under the lead of Dr Juan Bramuglia of Argentina, the delegates of six countries prepared a list of questions to be put to Russia and the Western Allies when the Council takes up the crisis. If they can get the Russian dele- gate, Andrei Vyshinsky, to answer, his sitdown strike will be broken.
Delegates from Western areas believe, however, that Mr Vyshinsky will refuse to answer questions; in line with his announcement that he would take no part in consideration of the Berlin situation.
