RYAN Associated Press News Analyst It is not generally known, but the United States seriously con sidered knocking down the Com munists’ Berlin wall more than a year ago. One reason it didn’t was fear of a revolution in Red-ruled East Germany. This presented the United States with the possibility of a terrifying choice: The West could intervene in an East Ger man revolution to help it, and thus risk triggering World War III; or it could keep hands off and thus risk losing all of Ber lin, all of Germany and a good deal more. The U.S. dilemma at that mo ment brought home forcefully the need for advance planning to anticipate Soviet moves in the dangerous Berlin and German situations. What should be done now to counter the next Kremlin move, which many believe will come before the end of the year ? The feeling among many in formed Americans is that Soviet Premier Khrushchev cannot much longer defer action on his threat to sign a separate peace treaty with the Communist East Ger mans, which he says will auto matically nullify Western occu pation rights in West Berlin. When Khrushchev in November When Khru^dieV fh November 1958 issued his first ultimatum to the Allies to get out of West Ber lin within six months-an ultima tum later withdrawn—some high ly placed persons in the United States proposed that the Allies quickly declare West Berlin final ly and irrevocably part of the West Berlin finally and irrevocabl West German Federal Republic. It would be incorporated in the Federal Republic, and the Bonn government would be responsible for it. Plus Apparently Chancellor Adenau er was against such a move at the time, supposedly because he fear ed it would signal the withdrawal of the Western Allied occupation forces from the beleaguered city.
