LONDON, July r. Prime
Minister Churchill came home
yesterday with a cautious warn
ing he had not entirely" ironed
out his foreign policy disputes
with President Eisenhower. But
he emphasized nothing comes
before the true and lasting

Before he debarked from the
liner Queen Elizabeth after a
five-day voyage from New York,
the 79-year-old Prime Minister
radioed summons that carried
a tone of urgency for the British
cabinet to meet him today and

them:

ton going to the Communists.
This source said the French
would retain Hanoi and Haip-
hong but that the two sides
were still disagreeing over
French demands to hold also
the area between and around
those two aAities.)
Premier Diem said his gov
ernment's first urgent" task is
to seek a cease-f1re in the seven
year war with the Communist

"But the cease-fire should not
lead to partition-which no
Vietnamese wants-which could
only be a preparation for an
even more murderous war and
