EISENHOWER
Continued From First Page

was with Mr.. Anderson, his
aide on national security matters.
The White House said the
President has been burning the
midnight oil for weeks in pre-
Iparing for the conference, dis
cussing various aspects of world
problems with officials and read
ling stacks of reports from over
the world.
He has given a great deal of
attention to his talk tonight.
He may be expected to use the
same theme he did in talking to
a group Of foreign exchange
students Tuesday. Then he said:
I'VE will try to explore the
reasons why this world does not
seem to get closer to peace. and
to try to find roads that. if the
world follows, all Of you may
live a little bit more TRANQUILITY
than the people Of my genera
ton"
Earlier the President had said
he expected no solutions to world
problems Of substance to be made
at Geneva, but that he did hope
to find avenues that would point
the way toward solution Of such
perplexing problems as world
disarmament. Mr.. Eisenhower
said. obviously there had been
some change in Russian attitudes
| of late, but that no one believed
the Seviets had abandoned the
Marxist doctrine of world DOM
ination.
When he finally decided In
May to join Britain and France
in inviting Russia to a Big Four
meeting, the President said he
had done 50 to find out whether
the Soviet Union was absolutely
sincere"
One development which pre-
sumably pleased the President,
although he did not comment on
lit publicly, was the inclusion
yesterday of Soviet Defense Min
lister Georgi Zhukov in the
|Kremlin delegation to Geneva.
Mr.. Eisenhower and Gen.
Zhukov struck UP a friendly &C
lquaintance when they both were
military administrators after
World War II in Europe. Mr..
Eisenhower recently disclosed he
had been in private corre-
Ispondence with Gen. Zhukov and
depressed hope it might lead to
improvement Of relations with
Russia.
