FREE ELECTIONS - Kennedy Answers Reds On Berlin President Kennedy, in his first news conference since the beginning of May, prefaces the question and answer session with a strong statement on our stand on Berlin. He challenges the Russians to let Berliners determine their own fate in free elections - giving them the chance at the self-determination that the Russians maintain should prevail in all countries.
