Berlin conference appeared to
be the main concrete result Of
the Bermuda talks. but Mr..
Churchill-sponsor of the Big
Three meeting-was so pleased
that he proposed that American
and British Commonwealth leg.
islators meet regularly to discuss
principles and ideas.
Churchill Speaks.
In an address in Bermuda last
night, Mr.. Churchill said the
Congressman and members Of
Parliament could discuss "fair
play, decent behavior, courage
and. if necessary. even sacrifice. "
Mr.. Churchill obviously was
weary after the conference with
Gen. Eisenhower and Premier
Laniel and nobody in Bermuda
was unconverned about the
health of the 79-year-old leader
of Britain in war and peace.
Mr.. Churchill wept yesterday
morning as he bade Gen. Eisen-
hover farewell as the President
took off for New York and his
United Nations address.
Premier Laniel, stricken with
a lung infection during the con-
ference, remained under medical
care.

international problems, in
cluding that of European Sc
curity. In this connection the
United States Government re-
affirms that the voluntary as
sociation of the free countries
of the Atlantic alliance and
the actions of certain Euro
pean states for developing
their prosperity and ensuring
their joint security are ex-
clusively defensive and a coll
lective contribution to peace.
The Soviet government has
stated it's desire to discuss the
possibility of a five-power con-
ference. The forthcoming
meeting of the four foreign
ministers will enable any par

its views on this question.

The West postponed a decision
on the Soviet proposal for a con-
ference including Communist
China.
"The Soviet government" the
notes said, has stated its desire
to discuss the possibility of a
five-power conference. The
forthcoming meeting of the four
Foreign Ministers will enable any
participating government to
state its views on this question" /"
Technically, the Western notes
were in reply to a 2.000-Word
Soviet note favoring a Berlin
meeting "in the near future" for
"the purpose of reducing ten
sions in international relations. !"
West Berlin Excited.
West Berlin was cautiously ex-
cited over the possibility of being
host to a four-power conference.
The meeting would be held in a
building formerly used as head
quarters of the old Allied Con-
troll Commission.
The conference probably would
attract 1000 persons, including
800 newsmen, the Associated
Press reported from Berlin. In
anticipation of the tide Of visi-
tors. Berlin shops began laying
in post-Christmas stocks stocks
of such high quality German
tourist bait as cameras, jewelry,

Russia BeIittIes Big 3 Talks;
Is Silent on BerIinPorIey

Russia today jibed at the over
all results of the Bermuda con-
ference, but remained silent on
the conferences main move: an
invitation for Russia to join the
Big Three Western powers in a
conference of Foreign Ministers
in Berlin January 4.
The United States, Great Bri-
tain and France last night made
public the text of their invita-
tion to the Soviets. 1t was a
mildly-worded, 200-word note
apparently aimed at arranging
a conference rather than making
propaganda.
The Soviet government gave
no immediate reaction to the in
Vitation, but Moscow radio
started telling the Russian
people that serious friction"
arose at the Bermuda conference
among President Eisenhower,
British Prime Minister Churchill
and French Premier Laniel. A
radio Moscow commentator in
sisted that the chiefs of state
did not seek ways for cas-
ing international tension"
What Moscow may tell the
outside world may be something
else. Western diplomats said
they felt their note to Moscow
left little room for the Soviets
to turn down the conference, al
though delays probably can be
expected.
The conference, under the
Western proposal, would be
aimed at settling the German
and Austrian problems.
THE United States Govern
ment," the American note said,
''is confident that real progress
toward the settlement of the
German and Austrian questions.
