The announcement came on
the heels of a suggestion by Sem

should meet at the foreign min
isters' level, to try to avoid a
new Far East flareup.
Senator George, chairman of
the Senate Foreign Relations

while appearing on the NBC TV-
radio show Meet the Press. ="
This was the same program on
which, four months ago, he sug-
gested a meeting of the great
power leaders, a proposal which
helped bring about the summit
conference at Geneva.
Talks Indicated at Briefing
The Georgian was at the
White House this morning for
a briefing of congressional lead

be some talks with Red China. 3"

GENEVA, July 25.-Whatever
lit may or may not have proved
about the new look in Russian
diplomacy, the summit confer
Ience has had special and very
fortunate result in terms Of
European reaction.
The new look in American di-
plomacy unveiled here for the
first time is for many European
observers the most significant re-
suit of the Big Four meeting.
Its effect has been to rally
Western opinion behind Amer
|ican leadership and recapture a
good deal of the ground lost in
the course of the last few years.
In Europe. that mysterious
something known as the psyche
logical initiative seems at last
safely back in Western hands
And to the extent that Europe
lis typical of the rest of the nom
Communist World, the latest
Geneva conference may go down
as a Western victory of far
reaching Importance.
About Face Seen
The immediate aftermath of
this diplomatic beauty contest
one abiding impression remains
While American observers by and
large have been left cold by the
performance of their own dele
cation here, some of most hard
boiled European critics are
knocking themselves out over
what seems to them profound
I"change in the American atti-
.Itude."
4 Very largely this is a change
lin the European notion that the
United States is not really in
Iterested in calling a true to the
cold war-at least not as in
terested as most of its allies
The popular impression was that
the United States had been
drawn into the summit confer
ence virtually by the scruff OF
its neck, that its leaders were
ldistrustful of any tendency to-
ward "softening" of the anti
Communist front. and that its
principal effort here would well
be to freeze rather than thaW
the international atmosphere.
The idea was not entirely the
product of an over-sensitive Eu.
ropean imagination. Until now
the face that the United States
has presented to the world ha.
been unbendingly severe. Its ex.
plantations of the new Russian
latitude economic weakness
within the Communist camp ano
the military superiority of the
West) seemed like the argu.
ments of professional anti-Com-
munistS.
Many Europeans found them
unconvincing and leading to a
dangerously negative and in
transigent attitude. The reac-
tion to this attitude partly ex-
plains the rapid growth of "neu-
tralism" in Europe and else
where within recent months.
A One-Man Triumph
That this process has been re-
versed is not attributed here to
any special change in American
public opinion. On the contrary
lit is attributed almost entirely
to the influence of a single per-
sonality. The impact Of Pres
ident Eisenhower on this con-
ference and on the European
mind can hardly be exaggerated.

The bipartisan group of con-
gressional leaders was called to
the White House for the briefing
in advance of the Presidents
report to the Nation on the Ge-
neva conference on TV and radio
tonight. The President will speak
at 1890 o'clock and Mr.. Hag-
erty said his remarks will be
given informally.
The President and Secretary
Of State Dulles gave the legis-
lators a detailed account of the
Geneva conference. Afterwards
the group agreed that hopeful
steps had been taken toward
lessening world tension but that
the problems ahead have not
been discounted.
The President, Mr.. Hagerty
said, outlined the discussions ut
the Big Four conference and
Mr.. Dulles gave detailed pres
entation of the day-to-day talk
and an analysis of the final
agreed directive.
Republicans and Democrats
alike described the bipartisan
meeting with the President and
Mr.. Dulles as "one of the most
constructive" and lone of the
frankest" they have attended. '
Senator Clements of Kentucky,
acting minority leader. said the
President and the Secretary did
not suggest that solutions were
found to all the problems" but
that steps had been made toward
easing tensions throughout the
world.
The Geneva conference, Sen
ator Clements added, certainly
gave the Russians an opportunity
of proving their good faith. The
test of that. he said, will come
with the meeting of Big Four
ministers in October.
