American, British and French negotiators were told to meet again soon with Soviet commandant Sergl A, Dengin to resume preliminary discussions which were broken off Thursday. Authoritative sources' said the next attempt to end the squabble over how many of the meetings will be held in West Berlin and how many in the Soviet-run sector probably will be made tomorrow. NEW INSTRUCTIONS A London Foreign Office spokes man said the three powers have sent new instructions to their Ber lin commandants. It was under stood they were reafly to agree to Russia’s demands' that half the meetings be held in the Soviet sector. If such a concession is made the score In the preliminary maneuver ing would be five Western concess ions to none by the Kremlin. OPPOSE SOVIETS But high Allied officials in Paris made it dear the West is deter mined to prevent Soviet subborn «ess on “minor points” from dis rupting coherence plans even be fore the rant foreign ministers’ meeting can Be held. “We shall concede the maximum to, show our good faith," one Al lied spokesman said. - The principal misgiving, at this point, arises from the fear that the numerous concessions may lead the Russians to believe the West will back down on major issues when the main conference opens.

Chairman Dewey Short R-Mo disclosed that the bi|l, which goes to the House for consideration next week, .al ready has run into an economy roadblock that could mft der its passage. He said Chairman John Taber R-NY of the House Ap propriations Committee advised him today he does q«t think that group this year would allow more than abd&t five million of the 25 to 30 million dollars the Air Force said it will need at once to get the work underway. \ As approved by the Armed Services group, the bill would authorize an initial outlaw of 26 million of which up to one million could be spent on a tempo rary school pending comple tion of the permanent acad emy. SITE NOT SELECTED Still wide open is the question of a site for the "West Point of the Air” and how the site should be chosen. Maj. Gen. L. B. Washbourne, Air Force installations director, said he hopes the permanent site can be ready for its first classes by June 30. 1957.

The President said he hadn’t told anybody his choice, and didn't plan to. And Talbott , said he didn't in tend to ask the President’s advice.
