tBy The Associated Press,

PARIS, March 6.-United States
Secretary of State Marshall ar
rived here this morning from the
Azores and conferred with the
premier and other high officials
in the French government.
Marshall has arranged to con-
fer with Premier Stain and For
eign Commisar Molotoff in Mos
cow before the beginning of the
Big Four conference.
1t is expected that the Marshall
note, recently sent to Russia, re-
garding Hungary, will be discuss
ed. In that note Marshall stated
that the United States recognizes
| the non-communistic government
in Hungary.
The atomic bomb probably will
be discussed also at the pre-con-
ference meeting with Stain and
Molotoff.
Republican House Leader
Charles Halleck suggested that
members of congress make no
anti-Russisn remarks during the
conference of the Big Four in
Moscow. He asserted that any
such remarks would only make
Secretary Marshall's task harder
than what it is, and added that
it is already difficult enough.)
