Biu Four ministers talks end
 with nothing accomplished

time or place for another meet
 ing.
 They did this by accepting "a communique which they a. greed ito issue later today. It was a very brief document reg istering by implication the to- tai failure of the meeting to provde solutions or make suIb- stantial progress on any of the great east-west issues and par ticularly Germany.
 The comnnunique was de- scri'bed as reporting only that the foreign ministers had met as their chiefs directed them to at the summit conference in July. that they had covered their assigned problems in their discussions, that they would now report back to their chiefs and that they would re- commend that the future course of their discussions be settled through diplomatic channels.
 Dulles, who is to report to President Eisenhower tomor- row, said the president has closely followed this confer ence on day to day basis"
 Eisenhower, he went on, twill evaluate it's results a- gainst the background of his vast knowledge and abhor- ence of war and his dedica- ton Ito the cause of a just and durable peace"
 Dulles stid he thought that the Geneva meeting had not been wholly barren" And he expressed hope for better re- suits in the future, saying that after long years in internation- al diplomacy he is not easily discouraged.
 ''The government and people of the United States" Dulles told Molotov, ''want to devel- op better relations with the Soviet nation.
 ''Our hope for the future de- rives from our belief that the Soviet government will sooner or later come to see that the advant age for it in better rela- tions with the western powers is far better than local and pass ing advantages which it could gain at the price of forfeiting he good relations which at the summit conference the Soviet rulers seem to want" Dulles covered the discus sions here point by point with summarizing comments begin ming with the problems of Ger man unificafion and European security. I@ ss1A He said the Russian refusal "even to contemplate free ell ections in East Germany" serves to highlight "as no words could the situation throughout eastern Europe"
 Tiff the so-called German Democratic Republic" he said, 'Scannot stand the lest of a peoples choice, no more can the regimes imposed on the peoples of eastern Europe"

No progress made
 on q single major issue ut parley

' GENEVA (H) The Big Foua foreign ministers conference ended today with Russia and the Western powers more deep ly divided than ever over the great vital problems of Ger man reunification and European security.
 Soviet foreign minister Mo- lotov, chairman of the final session, brought the conference to a close at about $40 p. m. In almost 50 hours of debate over three weeks, the Big Four had failed to make substantial ! progress on a single major is sue before them. The Western ministers blamed an uneNpect- ed hardening of Soviet policy l for the breakdown. Molotov blamed the West.
 The four had igegun their talks Odt. 27 in the warm glow of hope created by the ''Spirit of Geneva" which flourished during and after the Big Four summit meeting here in July. They ended in the bleak, cold of an Alpine winter night with out algreemen. even on plans to meet again. The possibility of another conference was left up to future negotiations thro- ugh diplomatic channels. U. s. secratary of state Dull les planned to be the first of the four to leave Geneva. He ordered his plane made ready for an overnight flight to Wash ington.
 The final meeting was devot- ed to round of summary spe- eches, al.er the ministers had agreed on a tense communique which merely confirmed their lack of agreement and said that each would repon. to his chief. Tn the final statements: Dulles accused Soviet prem fer Bulganin of having appar- enly having sent Molotov here with orders not to negotiate Iseriously on German unity. He said the Soviets seemed afraid free elections in Germany would threaten their hold on Eastern Europe. He promised \ the United States would con- ! tinua to work for peace. British foreign secra ary 1 MacMillan said the Soviets had approached the whole German problem from the ''wrong and wicked principle" that people should not have freedom to cho !, ose their own des, tiny through free elections.
 l French foreign minister Pin ay said Soviet policy was aimed at dissolving the North Atlantlc Alliance, and solidifying the al Ivision of Germany. An undefi- Inil e division of Germany, ne Isaid will lead precisely to wha1 ithe Soviets say they most rear

/, Birch E. Bayh, the school SyS-
TENS physical education direc-
tor backed the stand taken by
the parents. Mr.. Bayh said the
schools playground is already
Iundersize according to school
board standards.
The PTA for some years has
been seeking to have q fence put
up along the Wisconsin avenue
edge of the school property in
lorder to enlarge the usable por-
ton Of the playground.
The part of the grounds near
lest the avenue has not been used
much by the school children
because it is considered too dam
Igerous without a fence. It Is
this plot which library author
titles are seeking.
Mr.. Bayh said if the area were
fenced and graded. the schools
physical training could be i'm
proved.
/ Mr.. Peterson last week told
Janney parents the proposed
library site is the best in the
neighborhood because 1t is on
wisconsin avenue and because it
would save spending money for
Iprivately-owned property. The
library should be as close as pos
|sible to stores and public trans
|portation, he said.
Too Far From Shops
The librarian said he objects
to using the west end of the
Janney land because it is at
least 300 feet from the shops and
older patrons would be incon-
venienced by having to climb a
hill.
The District Congress OF
Parents and Teachers. at the re-
quest of Janney PTA. voted yes

Ividual taxpayer in the District

average taxpayer in cities Of
comparable size. We think there
must come a time when firmness
should be evidenced with regard
Ito the skyrocketing requests Of
the various departments which
must call for additional tax in-
Icreases.
There must come a limit. We
feel that limit has come now.l
I'VE think. therefore. we must get
relief from a resurvey Of our tax
base, or by simply saying We
Just cannot grant these requests
even as much as we should like
ito do so, where added heavy
taxes must follow"

A Board of Education member
today proposed a compromise
solution for the Tenley branch
library controversy.
! Board Member Walter N
Tobriner suggested locating the
proposed library at the west enc
!of the Janney School instead Of
on the east-end site being sought
by library authorities.
The District Public Library.
trustees are seeking Board oi
Education approval for use Of
10 portion OF Janney land al
Wisconsin avenue and Albemarlt
street NV. for q projected re-
placement for the present library
branch. Janney's Parent Teach
Ier Association is opposing ths
move.
Mr.. Tobriner said today he Il
against giving up any OF jan
ney's east playground. But hi
said he will urge the School
Board to offer part Of a tree
covered park area on the oppo-
site side Of the school.
Librarians Reaction
Harry u. Peterson. District
librarian. informed of Mr.. To-
Ibriner's suggestion. indicated he
was not enthusiastic about 1t.
"I don't think it's anywhere
near as good q site for library
purposes" he said. He added,
however, that the library prob
ably would fit there.
Mr.. Peterson and Albert w.
Atwood, chairman of the library
trustees. are scheduled to ap-
pear before the School Board to-
morrow on the library project.
James w. Pimper of the
Janney PTA and T. w. Normal
of the Friendship Citizens AS
sociation also have asked to ap-
pear. The citizens group is on
record in favor Of the east site.
Janney parents have been op-
posing the library project vigor-
ously, arguing that the land in
volved is needed by the school
for physical education teaching
and play. They also have argued
that the library would increase
traffic.
