Churchill Calls for Effort
To Terminate Cold War

EDINBURGH, Scotland, May 20
(P. Winston Churchill called
again last night for a supreme
effort at the highest level to end
the cold war with Russia.
The 75-year-old wartime Prime
Minister addressed the Scottish
Unionist CONSERVATIVE Associa-
ton. He expressed continued hope
for the success of an attempt to
bridge the East-West gulf.
Great events are happening
and we must not allow the cease
less clack and clatter which is
the characteristic of our age to
turn our minds from them" he
said.
II still hope that the unities
now being established among all
the Western democracies and the
Atlantic powers will ward off from
us the terrors and unspeakable
miSeries of a third world war.
II wish also that every effort
could be made at the highest
level to bring home to the Russian
Soviet government the gravity oil
the facts which confront us ALL
In his speech Mr.. Churchill also
said Britain should be wary of the
new plan of French Foreign Min.
lister Schuman to pool French Goa
and German steel production, lest
Britain's steel industry suffer. HI
described the Schuman plan "a.
an important and effective ster
in preventing another war;" but
added:
1--WE must, nevertheless, con.
slider carefully the way in which
Great Britain can participate mos
effectively in such larger group.

American element, a source in
close touch with the French view
said. 1.-THE United States is very
much under the pressure of cold
war ideas-and this is under
standable because they have
sensed the Communist menace
clearly. They have reacted to il
very strongly.
But the nations of Europe are
at present looking at things from
a slightly different angle than the
United States. They are deeply
concerned with their future ability
to stand on their own feet"
In his speech at the closing ses-
sion of the Atlantic Council, Mr.
Schuman-while not naming the
United States-warned that "our
task is complicated by the con-
fusion and fears which have taken
hold of a part of public opinion. -
Peace, he stressed, remains
more firmly than ever our aim
our hope and our resolve"
There have been indications in
London that American diplomats
are finding French views on Euro
pean organization more palatable
than those of Britain.
So far. it is expected that the
Schuman plan will get strong
support because it clearly implies
the lowering of trade barriers and
customs regulations - both OF
which United States diplomats
consider essential for European
recovery

in order to provide for greater safety
