Washington, M a r. 2G
(AP)— The Western Big
II notes to Russia have
been made public. The
United States, in its note,
told Russia it is prepared
to take part in a summit con-
ference, hut on the under-
standing that such a meeting
he justified by progress at a
foreign ministers meeting May
11th.
The US note followed a for-
mula worked out by President
Eisenhower and British Prime’
Minister Macmillan at their
.meeting last week. The plan
calls for dealing with the Ber-
lin crisis through diplomatic
negotiation looking toward one
or more meetings at the sum-
mit.
It is clear from the US note
that there is no automatic com-
mitment to hold a summit
meeting this summer. Tha^ de-
cision would depend on what
the foreign ministers were able
to achieve — if anything — to-
ward resolving the Berlin and
other German issues.
The French note to the
Kremlin indicated even strong-
er reservations. President De
Gaulle said he would be willing
to go to the summit only.if a
foreign ministers meeting made
genuine progress. The US note
on the other hand, spoke only
of “constructive pro p o s a I s”
from the foreign ministers.
Britain-—in its note—said it
would join in a summit confer-
ence as soon as developments
in a prior East-West foreign
ministers meeting warrant. The
British reserved the right of
all participants to raise any
subject for discussion at the
foreign minister meeting. Hut
the British porposed specific-
ally that the agenda include
questions relating to Germany,
including a peace treaty with
Germany and the question of
Berlin.
The US note said in part:
“The purpose of the foreign
ministers meeting should be to •
reach positive agreements on
German issues over as wide a
field as possible, and in any
case to narrow the differences
between the respective points
of view and to prepare con-
structive proposals for consid-
eration by a conference of
heads of government later in
the summer.”
The US note added:
“On this understanding and
as goqn as developments in the
foreign ministers meeting jus-
tify holding a summit confer-
ence. the United States gov-
ernment would lie ready to
participate in such a confer-
ence. The datec, place and
