BERLIN, Nov. 19--A responsible Soviet source said tonight the Soviet Union intends to give Communist East Germany control over all Western Allies supply lines to Berlin--air, rail and highway.

It was a confirmation of East German hints and Western expectations in a pattern building up since Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev called Nov. 10 for an end to the four-power occupation.

The Soviet informant said transfer of control of the supply lines was the meaning behind Khrushchev's speech.

Khrushchev proposed that the United States, Britain and France, with city garrisons totaling 10,000 troops, get out of West Berlin.

He said the Soviet Union would hand over its occupation rights in the old German capital to East Germany.

He did not spell out, however, whether he would risk a new East-West crisis by also transferring to Premier Otto Grotewhohl's Red regime the supervision of traffic between West Berlin and West Germany.

Attorney Defends Zborowski

NEW YORK, Nov. 19-The attorney for a Harvard research assistant charged that confessed spy Jack Soble testified against his client to get favored treatment from the government.

The attprmeu. Frederick Nathan, was summing up his defense of Mark Zborowski, admitted former Russian agent, who is on trial on charges of committing perjury in telling a grand jury he did not know Soble.

Soble, now severing a seven-year term after admitting he spied for the Russians, was the chief witness against Zborowski. He said he met with the former Harvard research man 40 to 50 times.

Zborowski at first at first had denied having met Soble, but later said he recalled a few meetings.

Nathan suggested that Soble may still be a loyal Communist and may have been "given the assignment to destroy the defendant because Zborowski had told the NKVD to go to hell."
