MEETING AT HI UMMITs
MONDAY, NEXT, the dream Of elder statesman, Sir
Winston Churchill will become a reality for there will be
a meeting as he himself put i, at the summit
MONDAYS MEETING at the summit has thus far
drawn reactions ranging from pure ~skepticism to guarded
optimism. And while it is everywhere granted that this meet
ing could be the turning point in civilization itself, yet the
Geneva conference will not be entirely Disappointing if it
does little more than open the way for future discussions.
THE UNKNOWN quantity in this meeting is the Krem-
lin. Highly upredictable, and as Churchill once described
it, "a riddle wrapped up in an enigma the Kremfn will in
large measure be responsible for what happens. The Russians,
headed BY Premier Bu1ganin could 60 into the conference
in good faith, ready, willing and able to engage in the give
and take without which no conference can possibly be sue
cessful, OF he could use this meeting as just one more propa-
ganda opportunity to make proposals which he knows are
impossible, but which sound appealing to the unsuspecting
by-stander.
OF COURSE, ALL parties to a conference must attend
in good faith, but the democracies, by the very nature Of
their political philosophy, the responsibility Of the leaders
to the people who elected them, and the knowledge and
desire for high standards Of living, are much more commit
ted to peace than the Russians. Westerners much prefer but
ter to guns. On the other hand, the average Russian on the
street can only read what the Kremlin decides that he shall
read, and it even goes as far as to what he thinks.
WHAT is possible, therefore, is for the representatives
of the Kremlin to say one thing at the conference, and then
completely turn the tables around, feeding a totally different
propaganda at home, yet it would make no difference since
~expediency may be the dominant note.
BUT THROUGH it all, this meeting IS a wonderful
thing. -Four men will sit down Observation-Disclosures Of the
United States, Eden of Great Britain, Faure Of France, and
Bulganin Of the Soviet-to see if through conference civiliza-
